also, it goes without saying, but: please do NOT hack FamousBirthdays, or any other site for that matter. Gaming the system is one thing, but actually *breaking in* is another thing entirely (not ok).

I'm impressed that a website that I didn't even know existed could give you so much access, is it really that much a reference in terms of stars popularity ?

[@Weisz]

People treat it like it is - and apparently FamousBirthdays thinks so, because they’re now selling their site data to marketers as a barometer for what influencers to sign or work with. I saw a tweet the other day calling it “the future of influencer marketing tools” which is just straight up goofy

[@donalh3138]

As someone on the older end of Gen z I’d known about famous birthdays for a long time, but to me it was really only something used when bored to laugh at how stupid it all was. Like it has random children with no picture or information rated way above far more traditionally famous people with actual talent and success. Had no idea the site was so important for the younger members of my generation though. It seems so weird, and almost sad in a way to me how an artificial number based on what some people think or like can shape the opinions and actions of others so much.

It makes sense it'd work just off high vis jacket logic (you can get anywhere with a high vis jacket and confidence) but at the same time that shouldn't be the basis of popularity gauging.
