People were getting freaky on New Year's

Normally I post a little something on one of my favorite people celebrating their birthday on any particular day. Well, today I'm in birthday overload and had a little trouble picking just one person. So, I won't go into extreme detail and bore everyone to death. I will just share with you a few tiny morsels of information about each of the uber-stars celebrating getting one year closer to wear diapers again.

1) Tina Yothers - 34



Who was my favorite Keaton? Well, it was Alex. But which Keaton had the best name? Jennifer Keaton, played by the spunky little spitfire, Tina Y. For 7 years we watched her as she busted everyone's balls, all the while making you want to pinch her little cheeks.

Following her run on Family Ties, Tina penned the book "Being Your Best: Tina Yother's Guide For Girls." She then died her hair and became all goth looking when she formed the band Jaded with her brother. She belted out the tunes while he tickled them ivories.

After a nine year absence from acting, Tina was given the lead role in Lovelace the Musical, a 2004 stage show based on the life of former pornographic movie star Linda Lovelace.

Like a lot of former child stars, Tina ate too many Oreos and hot wings and put on a couple lbs. Wanting to show the world she could be hot to trot, she joined the cast of the fourth season of VH1's Celebrity Fit Club. While being yelled at by Harbey, Ti-ti lost 42 lbs, over 21% of her body weight. She holds the record, to date, for second highest weight loss, and second highest body weight percentage loss in the history of the show. Yay Tina. You are so fierce.
