TODAY IS
It may seem that Carrie Underwood has been around forever... but today, she's only 27.
Timbaland turns 38 today. Seems weird having a rapper with the same name as a line of outdoor clothing at Penney's.
Sharon Stone turns 52 today. These days, when she's about to be interrogated, the police insist she wear pants. We got to know her years before Britney was even old enough to crawl out of a limo.

5 THINGS THAT SHOULDN'T BE DEAL BREAKERS
Lori Gottlieb, author of Mr. Good Enough, says there's a big difference between making smart compromises and settling.
Here are five basic things you should try to overlook on your way to love ...
1. His height. Don't pass on an amazing man who meets more important criteria just because you might have to wear flats on occasion..
2. His online dating profile -- Don't get uber-specific with your search filters -- you'll eliminate too many people you have real things in common with! Choose real deal-breakers only (like does he want kids, not what color his eyes are.)
3. His occupation -- Yes, business execs can be sexy and charming -- but aren't necessarily the best partners! What about that cute elementary school teacher? Sure his salary might not be six figures, but you already know he's good with kids.
4. His age -- It might be prudent to avoid the very young and the very old, but if you're not having any luck with guys exactlyyour age, it's time to broaden the age group. Seriously, you aren't getting any younger either -- do you want to be with someone without a wrinkle, or someone who'll still find you attractive in 10 years?
5. How he compares to "my type" -- Ever have your opinion of someone change as you get to know them? Exactly. Just because he's "not your type" right of the bat doesn't mean you should discount him entirely. Does he make you laugh? Is he kind? Get rid of deal-breakers that don't help you find a quality partner.
