Several years ago I used to really enjoy going to IMDb.com and checking out “Born Today.” I didn’t do it everyday, but it was still fun to see what celebs had birthdays when. When I became a Richard Armitage fan I started checking on his birthday to see if he’d make the main/home page. Last year I was hopeful, after all he had been in Captain America and had The Hobbit coming out. No such luck, I had to click on “see all birthdays” and he was of course there, but just one name among the many listed.
But today:
It’s a silly little thing, but it just one more thing to add the list of changes a year can make!
A bunch of items related to his birthday also made google alerts this year (didn’t happen last year iirc). Yay for such a successful year!
I noticed the Google alerts too! It’s like it really is a holiday this year, one that other people besides his fans actually know about. π
It’s like he’s a … star … or something. Hear, that Richard? π
LOL! Richard a star? Of course he is!

Hot Dog!!! They are finally starting to take notice!!!
Yay! Quite right too!
Isn’t it exciting! Hurray for RA and Armitage Day!!!
Not just the main page but the first picture!! π Makes me all misty eyed!
I know, Teuchter! I was so very excited when I saw that he was on the main page and the first one listed!!! I feel a little silly being so excited over that, but oh well. π
We’re just excited because he seems to finally be getting the attention he so RICHly deserves! π
Very true! It’s fun to watch as the world discovers how wonderful he is!!!
Good catch, jasrangoon! I wouldn’t have noticed had you not mentioned it.
Thanks, bccmee. I wouldn’t have even thought to look if I hadn’t regularly checked out the page in the past.
Oh wow, I didn’t even know this kind of thing existed. Great – certainly an indicator that things have changed for RA. Well spotted, Jas!
Woo-hoo!!! π Good catch, Jas!
Very exciting news! It’s about time the world took notice! Thanks for sharing. π
Yup, the world is finally starting to catch on!
Yep, I noticed it too and that he was the first name!!! Yay!!! I was disappointed he wasn’t mentioned in the celebrity birthdays today in my newspaper – The Kansas City Star!!!
Maybe next year he’ll show up in your local paper! A girl can hope!!! π
