Let's make this birthday one to remember.

54 years old (Born on August 26, 1970)

Happy Birthday, Michaela Pereira! From your early days at TechTV—where you made tech news cool before smartphones were even smart—to becoming the beloved face of KTLA mornings and CNN's New Day, you've always brightened our screens with wit, warmth, and wisdom. Your ability to seamlessly transition from gadgets in San Francisco to breaking headlines nationwide proves you're truly timeless.

Here's wishing a fantastic birthday filled with laughter (and hopefully fewer teleprompters)! May this year bring more memorable moments on-air—and off—as you continue inspiring us all by making every morning brighter than studio lights ever could. Cheers!
