Happy birthday, Julie Dawn Cole! We salute you for perfectly portraying Veruca Salt—the ultimate symbol of entitlement—long before Instagram influencers made demanding an Oompa Loompa seem reasonable. Even after all these years, your spirited performance has the world crying out "I want it now!" at any minor inconvenience.Beyond Wonka’s Chocolate Factory gates, you've continued spreading joy with charm and warmth that fortunately don’t include tantrums or Golden Goose chasing. Your talent shines through timelessly—we’re grateful we've had you brighten our screens (and cravings) throughout these sweet decades. May your day be golden-ticket worthy; just don't step near the squirrels!
