Let's make this birthday one to remember.

70 years old (Born on September 02, 1954)

Happy Birthday, Vance DeGeneres! From co-creating the hilariously tragic Mr. Bill sketches on SNL—where claymation met comedic catastrophe—to anchoring early episodes of The Daily Show with wit and charm, you've always known how to make us laugh (and occasionally cringe in sympathy). Your creative genius has left an indelible mark on comedy history.

As Ellen's brother, you might've had some big shoes—or sneakers—to fill; yet your unique humor shines brightly all its own. Here's hoping this birthday brings fewer "Oh nooo!" moments than poor Mr. Bill endured—and far more laughs shared among friends and family alike!
