Carl Weathers was born on January 14, 1948 in New Orleans, LA. He became a Philadelphian for life by playing Apollo Creed in Rocky I-IV. He later rode that glory into roles in films such as Predator, Action Jackson, Hurricane Smith, and Happy Gilmore. But nothing quite captured the essence of Carl Weathers more than his appearance in Michael Jackson's "Liberian Girl" music video.
missed philly birthdays:
January 12: Phillys favorite son, Andrew Lawrence (yes of the Lawrence brothers fame); you might remember him from such classics as: 1995's White Man's Burden, 1999's Horse Sense; 2003's tv series Oliver Beene; and make sure to catch him in what is sure to be the most talked about movie of 2007: Inspector Gadget 3
January 13: Janet Hubert-Whitten is an adopted daughter of Philly from her role as Vivian Banks in the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. She lives in California and is married to a former lawyer turned judge, Phillip Banks. Oh wait, that was actually Vivian Banks. Her life seemed to be a lot more interesting than Janet's is. Ah well, its not like everyone can have the career that Andrew Lawrence has.
