Let's make this birthday one to remember.

51 years old (Born on August 19, 1973)

Happy Birthday, Ahmed Best! From bringing Jar Jar Binks to life—arguably the galaxy's most misunderstood Gungan—to stomping your way into our hearts with rhythmic brilliance alongside Stomp, you've truly mastered both intergalactic diplomacy and percussion-based chaos. Your boundless energy has given us unforgettable laughs (and a few meme-worthy moments), proving that humor is indeed timeless.

Recently seeing fans embrace you warmly at conventions reminds everyone how much joy you've brought across generations. Whether you're drumming up beats or navigating Naboo politics hilariously sideways, here's hoping this birthday brings more applause than even an Ewok celebration could muster!
