Let's make this birthday one to remember.

69 years old (Born on May 09, 1955)

Happy birthday to the legendary Fernando Bujones—the man who leaped so high, gravity itself took notes! As the first American dancer ever to snag gold at the International Ballet Olympics, you didn't just raise standards—you pirouetted right over them. Your performances have always been a perfect blend of elegance and athleticism; rumor has it even Tchaikovsky applauded from beyond.

Fernando, your artistry continues inspiring dancers worldwide—proving once again that age is merely how many spins you've perfected around life's stage. May this year bring as much joy as applause after one of your breathtaking solos. Keep dancing through life gracefully (and humorously)!
