This week's celebrity birthdays
Published Monday, Aug 6 2007, 13:37 BST | By Nick Levine
We’ve been sending birthday presents to our favourite celebs for a whole month now. But, do you know what readers, not one of them has written us a thank you note. Nobody’s picked up the phone. We haven’t received a single text message. How rude! Let’s hope this week’s birthday boys and girls have better manners – one in particular has no excuses…
Geri Halliwell
How many candles? The flame-haired Spice Girl is 35 today.
DS' birthday present: The architect of girl power is reinventing herself as a children’s author, so we’ve sent her a dictionary. And - because we always dig deep into our pockets - a thesaurus too.
Barbara Windsor
How many candles? The Carry On icon enters her eighth decade today. Wow.
DS' birthday present: At 70, beautiful Babs works harder than most twentysomethings. We reckon she deserves a little rest, so we're sending her to a luxury spa for the weekend.
Neil Wilkes
How many candles? Now, that would be telling, wouldn't it?
DS' birthday present: Because it's his big day, we’re sending the DS editor to the pub for a few cheeky pints. And, of course, we’re much too friendly to let him drink alone…
Katie Leung
How many candles? The Harry Potter actress celebrates her 20th birthday on Wednesday.
DS' birthday present: Katie’s poor little lips got very dry smooching Daniel Radcliffe in The Order of the Phoenix, so we’ve sent her a year’s supply of Vaseline Lip Therapy. What a lucky girl!
Sandi Thom
How many candles? The Scottish songstress turns 26 on Saturday.
DS' birthday present: Sandi reckons she was “born too late into a world that doesn't care”, so we’ve invented a time machine, popped a few flowers in her hair, and sent her back to 1977. Hurrah!
