Happy Birthday: Jonathan Rhys Meyers

Jonathan Rhys Meyers

Born: July 27, 1977 in Dublin, Ireland

In order to avoid the boyish and somewhat androgynous junkies and weak-willed characters he found himself typecast as, he underwent a fitness regime in 2004 and gained and maintained about 25 extra pounds of muscle, so he can also be considered for more masculine roles.
