TODAY IS

TODAY IS

Norah Jones is 37. Doesn't it seem like she's been singing for 37 years? With that voice, sing to yourself, sweet thang!

Mark Consuelos -- that's Mr. Kelly Rippen -- turns 46 today. Kelly likes to call him "Regis 2" around the house.

Celine Dion's birthday is today -- she turns 48. First one without her husband.

Tracy Chapman turns 52 today. She's got a fast car, you know.

M.C. Hammer is 54 today. Hammer-time!
  • Actually, he's settled down over the years. In fact, these days, you can touch this.
  • These days, he's wearing control-top balloon pants.
  • He sang, "You can't touch this" years before the version by Elin Woods.

Eric Clapton turns 71. He has the nickname "Slowhand" and is the last person in the world that you want to play "Rock-Paper-Scissors" with.

Warren Beatty turns 78 today. I believe he's taking wife Annette Benning to that same dance. (A biographer claims Beatty has slept with over 12,000 women.)

Take a Walk in the Park Day -- Back in the day, you would have picked up a book, taken a walk in the park, played with your kids, hit the couch for a nap or just stared out your window watching the sun set. Now you check your e-mail and the status messages of your Facebook friends. BTW, a walk in the park is one of the top ten first date ideas.
