Let's make this birthday one to remember.

49 years old (Born on January 29, 1976)

Happy Birthday, Charles! From charming the world as Chad Harris on NBC’s "Passions"—where daytime TV drama reached hilarious new heights—to showcasing your comedic brilliance during your unforgettable run on WB's "Half and Half," you've continuously added sparkle (and a dash of mischief) to our screens.

As a proud Texan with talent bigger than the state itself, your charismatic performances keep us entertained effortlessly. May today be as spectacularly dramatic (minus soap opera chaos!) and delightful as you. Here’s to continued success, great laughs, and many more years in the spotlight—stay legendary and fabulous always!
