November Birthday!

With my 31st birthday around the corner, I thought of looking for famous people and celebrities who are born in the month of November. As I searched through the pages of Famous Birthday Website www.famousbirthdays.com. I found out that in every day of November there are at least five well-known individuals like celebrities, musicians, politicians, athletes, writers and even royals who celebrate their birthday.

And so, the list was made and I picked people that I know (mostly...) 

Take a look and have fun! And if you are born in November! See who has the same birthday as you! It's our Birthday Month!
