Aside from her usual gig being the Carrie Bradshaw-esque narrator of the popular CW teen drama, Bell has been a familiar face both on television AND the silver screen. She made a huge impact on us with the cult TV hit Veronica Mars, as well as making us laugh in comedic roles in films such as Forgetting Sarah Marshall and You Again. She even changed it up as a dancer in Burlesque, in addition to a cameo apperance in this year's Scream 4.
So what's been going on with everyone's favorite girl-next-door as of recently? Right now, she is engaged to actor & former Punk'd prankster Dax Sheperd. The pair has been going strong since 2007 and they even appeared in the 2010 romantic comedy When in Rome together! Awww.
The birthday girl sure has been keeping busy! Aside from acting gigs, Kristen has also been nominated for the VH1 Do Something Awards for the Movie Star category along with fellow nominees such as Orlando Bloom, Josh Duhamel, Scarlett Johansson, Daniel Radcliffe and Olivia Wilde. The award celebrates a famous person who has actively been involved in giving back and encouraging fans to do good deeds of their own. Very, very cool. The voting period doesn't end until 9 AM on August 14th, so get going!
Let's follow her example and 'do something' awesome this weekend. Surely, you or someone you know has a birthday of their own coming up? Why not let Joonbug do the planning for you? Take a break from a week of working hard (or hardly working).
'Til next time, lovely quidnuncs. You know you love me...XOXO, Gossip Girl your trusty Almost Famous editor.
