Celebrity Birthdays: Joni Mitchell was Born on Nov 7, 1943

Today is November 7th and it's Joni Mitchell's birthday. She was born November 7, 1943. She wrote many great songs. But the lyrics that stayed with me to this day are when "they paved paradise and put up a parking lot" and "took all the trees and put them in a tree museum." It was a sad day for mankind.

A little bit of entertainment trivia.

"Got 'til It's Gone" is a song by American singer Janet Jackson, featuring American rapper Q-Tip and Canadian singer Joni Mitchell, from her sixth studio album, (1997).

Birth name:  Roberta Joan "Joni" Anderson, American but Canadian born, folk-singer, song-writer.

CELEBRITY BIRTHDAYS: Happy birthday Zendaya!

Today is September 1, 2022. 

Folks on Twitter are wishing Zendaya a happy birthday. ❤️

To be honest, I know she started out as a child actress and now she appears in movies. She was chosen as an Lancôme’s newest and youngest ambassador. AND she takes great pictures! The camera loves her.

But I'm not really a fan. Are you a fan? I don't dislike her. I'm just in the wrong generation, so I don't keep up.  However, I would compliment by saying that I think she represents her generation well.

A little bit of entertainment trivia about this lady:

The name Zendaya is primarily a female name of African - Bantu of Zimbabwe origin that means "To Give Thanks." From the Shona (chiShona) language of Zimbabwe/Southern Zambi. (babynames.com/name/Zendaya)

Her full name is: Zendaya Maree Stoermer Coleman.
My big sister used to say you know you've made it to the big times when people know you by just one name. Just like everybody knows Madonna. Everybody knows Zendaya.

Time magazine named her one of the 100 most influential people in the world on its annual list in 2022.

In Memory of: Nichelle Nichols (1932 - 2022) | Star Trek's Lieutenant Uhura

Shortly after Christmas in 2017, I was celebrating this lady's birthday. I would describe her as "iconic".

For those who were dedicated fans of the original Star Trek sci-fi TV series which aired 1966 through 1969, no doubt you remember Nichelle Nichols who played Lieutenant Uhura.

Born Grace Nichols on December 28, 1932, in Robbins, Illinois. Today is her birthday

Happy Birthday Ms. Nichols!

* Do you remember Lt. Uhura? 
What did you think of her?

I LOVED HER!

On July 30, 2022, this legend crossed over.  Nichelle Nichols passed away at the age of 89.
