Celeb Birthdays: June 25

Some dear-to-my-heart celebrities (and a few I'm indifferent to) celebrate Cancer birthdays today.

Freaks and Geeks castmates Busy Philipps, 27, and Linda Cardellini, 31, both of whom I adore, share a birthday. Given their dynamic on that (wonderful) show, it's kind of funny that Linda is actually older.

An extremely gifted musician, who has brought me much joy throughout my childhood and into my adult life, Mr. George Michael, turns 43 today. George, please take it easy on the drugs and take care of yourself! You are too talented to throw your life away! And if you must get high, at least don't do it in the car!See George Michael's birth chart (Astrotheme)

Comic genius Ricky Gervais of The Office and Extras turns 45.
