Celebrity Birth Years

Since David Bowie (never a fan)and Alan Rickman (liked him)died days apart this month at 69 years of age. I thought I might as well match up the more prominent names of folks born in the years 1946 and 1947. I'm not speaking of deaths here. It looks like 1946 has a greater abundance of names than 1947.

I'll pair them up
1946 : Sylvester Stallone
1947 : Arnold Schwarzenegger

46 : Steven Spielberg
47 : Stephen King

46 : Tommy Lee Jones
47 : James Woods

46 : Cher
47 : Meat Loaf

46 : Sally Field
47 : Sally Struthers

46 : Diane Keaton
47 : Glenn Close

46 : Suzanne Somers
47 : Cindy Williams (of L.& S.)

There weren't many more notables born in 1947. Yet in 1946 :
Talia Shire (Yo)
Susan Sarandon
Ed O'Neil
Liza Minnelli
Dolly Parton
Candice Bergen
Eugene Levy
Hayley Mills

And ladies and gentlemen, last but certainly not least : The Donald !

 

Hate to break it to ya' --you're not famous TC. You are indeed well-known on the BB and in parts of Texas --but here in the hindterlands of China, the reaction would be "Huh, who is he?"

So your birthyear is 1946?

My father's birthday is Jan. 21. I told him there are three famous people (still living) that were born in his year of 1921. Those folks are :Abe Vigoda, Carol Channing and Nancy Reagan.

 

Okay, now let's see about 1948 vs. 1949

!948 : Jeremy Irons
1949 : Jeff Bridges

48 : Kathy Bates
49 : Sissy Spacek

48 : Billy C rystal
49 : Billy Joel

48 : Powers Boothe
49 : Richard Gere

49 : Bill O'Reilly

So what year came out ahead? Which year had the most famous celebrities? Or you may rate them as to which had the most talent.

I tried to match them up according to similarities, but on two occasions it didn't work out.
