Well now, let’s gab a bit about this August 22nd, you know, the birthdays and all that. Seems like a whole bunch of things happen on this day, not just folks gettin’ older.
Some Big Shots Born on August 22nd
I hear tell there’s some famous folks born on this day. Like that fella, James Corden, cracks me up he does. And that funny gal, Kristen Wiig, she’s a hoot. Then there’s this Debussy fella, a music man I reckon, though I ain’t never heard his tunes. Lots of other people too, I bet, just not as famous, you know? Regular folks like you and me.
