Getty ImagesHappy Friday the 13th, everyone! We hope you're snuggling up to a black cat while binge-watching every Jason Voorhees movie ever made. By the way, did you know they made 12 of those films?!
If you're one of those folks who believes Friday the 13th is a very unlucky day and you refuse to leave your home, let us sooth your worries. We tracked down a list of celebs that were born on Friday the 13th to see if their lives were indeed cursed from birth, and do you know what we found? The opposite. These stars who were brought into this world on a scary day have actually had an extremely blessed life, so perhaps this date actually represents good fortune and not scary omens?
Check out the list below and try and tell us that being connected to this day isn't actually the best thing ever:
1. Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen
Birthday: June 13, 1986
Are they cursed? Considering they were worth over $100 million dollars before they were legally allowed to drink, we would say that these twins were born under a lucky star, even if that day was Friday the 13th. Plus, anyone that can transition from child star to head of a billion dollar empire is pretty damn fortunate.
2. Steve Buscemi
Birthday: December 13, 1957
Are they cursed? You might take one look at Steve Buscemi and think that because of his unconventional features he was cursed at birth, but then you remember he's one of the most prolific actors of our generation. He made his quirky aesthetic work for him, and his career has been extremely successful. From all those Adam Sandler movies to Boardwalk Empire, Buscemi is doing just fine, y'all. And he's an Internet meme icon. Case closed.
3. Kate Walsh
Birthday: October 13, 1967
Are they cursed? Not only has Walsh had an extremely successful TV career, but she's played love interested to both Patrick Dempsey and Taye Diggs. How is that even fair?!
4. Kat Dennings
Birthday: June 13, 1986
Are they cursed? Anyone part of a successful CBS sitcom can label themselves as blessed. Just ask the cast of The Big Bang Theory. And you've seen what Kat Dennings looks like, right? She's a gorgeous girl with a gorgeous boyfriend (Josh Groban) and a gorgeous sack of cash in her bank of account. Lucky doesn't even begin to describe her.
5. Julia Louis-Dreyfus
Birthday: January 13, 1961
Are they cursed? Two words: Seinfeld money. Two more words: Boatload of Emmys. Well, that's three words but you get the picture.
6. Darius Rucker
Birthday: May 13, 1966
Are they cursed? The fact that Darius turned his ‘90s fame with Hootie & the Blowfish into a long, successful music career even today is nothing short of remarkable. Must be that lucky birth date.
7. Max Weinberg
Birthday: April 13, 1951
Are they cursed? He got to share a stage with Conan O'Brien for many years. Oh, and he's the drummer for Bruce Springsteen. You don't get cooler than that.
8. Christopher Plummer
Birthday: December 13, 1929
Are they cursed? He's Christopher Plummer. Do we really need to say anything else? Fine, we'll say one more thing. This dude is only one award away from nabbing that EGOT. Someone give him a Grammy!
9. Frances Conroy
Birthday: November 13, 1953
Are they cursed? She rolls with Ryan Murphy's crew. She's the opposite of cursed.
In conclusion, celebs born on Friday the 13th don't seem to have misfortune automatically bestowed upon them. In fact, they seem to have an extra dose of good fortune, so maybe this date isn't unlucky at all.
