Celebs Turning 50

What do the Google co-founders, a vampire romance novelist, an intern with an infamous blue dress, a teen supercouple from 90210, a supermodel who coined the word "smize" and ME all have in common?

We were all born in 1973!

In my quest to embrace a new decade, I've decided to round up the celebrity cool cats who are in the same boat as me. In this case, Larry Page & Sergey Brin, Stephenie Meyer, Monica Lewinsky, Tori Spelling & Brian Austin Green and Tyra Banks -- and about 100 others.

Is that a spoonful of sugar to help this medicine go down? Yes.  

Is it working? No, no, not really. 

But I'll give it a try! So, here's a partial list of the legends, luminaries, top bananas, MVPs and wannabes who turn 50 this year...

Sure. But first, I'll take a nap and dream of a time when I was half as old and twice as cute!
