My birthday song, my happy world (Part 39)....

 Badass Birthday

I was looking over the list and I saw Cyndi "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" Lauper and Lindsay "The Bionic Woman" Wagner were BOTH born today.  Wasn't sure which one.  

And then I got to the QUEEN of Badass Birthdays!  

Miss Meryl Streep!


She was today 76 years ago in 1949.  Everyone HAS to know her and why she's such a badass but if not....let's see....

Death Becomes Her
The Deer Hunter
The Devil Wear Prada
Florence Foster Jenkins
The French Lieutenant's Woman
The Iron Lady
Julia & Julia
Kramer vs Kramer
Out Of Africa
Postcards From The Edge
Silkwood
Sophie's Choice 

And if all those aren't enough for you, how about: 

Golden Globe Awards: 8
Emmy Awards: 4
Academy Awards: 3
Screen Actors Guild Awards: 2
Academy Award Nominations: 21 (the most of any actor in history)
Grammy nominations: 7
Tony nomination: 1
The Presidential of Honor from President Obama

With a list like that, she could be the Baddest of the Badasses!
