Others: Actress Zsa Zsa Gabor is 96, actor Rip Torn is 82, TV journalist Tom Brokaw is 73, singer Natalie Cole is 63, singer Axl Rose of Guns N’ Roses is 51, singer Rick Astley is 47, singer Sean Tillman aka Har Mar Superstar is 35, actress and TV personality Alison Haislip is 32 and actress Alice Greczyn is 27.
I love that you guys consider Har Mar Superstar of sufficient celebrity status to call out his birthday. He’s like the Ron Jeremy of hip-hop.
Truth. Plus, he used to play here in Fayetteville quite a bit during the Clunk Music Hall days, both as Har Mar and Sean Na Na.
