Let's make this birthday one to remember.

45 years old (Born on December 07, 1979)

Happy Birthday to the amazing Jennifer Carpenter! From giving us chills as Emily Rose in "The Exorcism of Emily Rose," where your incredible acting convinced half the world never to trust late-night noises again, you've shown that a haunting performance can still be oddly delightful. Your portrayal was unforgettable and made insomnia strangely entertaining!

And let's not forget your iconic role as Debra Morgan in Dexter—solving crimes while dropping hilarious expletives like confetti at a party. You've brilliantly combined intensity with humor, leaving audiences constantly wanting more. May your birthday bring less creepy possessions or murderous siblings—and far more cake!
