I share mine with both the great John Lennon and his son Sean, the British ex-Prime Minister David Cameron and the US actor Scott Bakula amongst others. I've never met any famous person who shares my birthday but just knowing that I have the same birthday as John Lennon is enough for me!

I find it interesting to discover the famous people with whom we share birthdays. I actually wrote an article a while ago about shared birthdays - prompted by have a niece and a granddaughter with the same birthday (they also share theirs with Karen Gillan), and having a mother, mother-in-law, and niece all with the same birthday (also shared with Tom Baker) while having other birthdays near to those in quick succession. Anyway, back to the point! I share my birthday with Angela Lansbury, Oscar Wilde, Flea from Red Hot Chili Peppers, David Hasselhoff's ex-wife, and Noah Webster among others. A pretty interesting selection of people, I think! Youngest son shares his birthday with Paul McCartney while my husband shares his with Ian McKellen.

@ScotMac That is an honor to have a birthday the same day as John Lennon and his son. How did you find that out?

My birthday is August 21st. I share it with Kacey Musgraves, Usain Bolt, and Kenny Rogers, along with plenty of others! They're all different years than me, though.

The one I can remember is Jack Nicholson. I'm pretty sure there are others. But he's the one that I can remember at the moment.

I never checked to see if I shared my birthday with somebody famous because when I found out that my birthday was the same day as International Human Rights Day. I thought that was awesome!

Come to think of it John was always telling people that he and I shared the same birthday but Sean never ever mentioned it!

How cool! There are dozens of notable people that were born on my birthday but not any near as famous as John and Sean.
