While some celebrities have gotten lucky breaks, others in Hollywood are born with it.
Rob Lowe and John Boyega are just some of the entertainment industry heavy hitters to call St. Patrick's Day their birthday — and we're green with envy.
St. Patrick's Day is a holiday observed annually on March 17. The religious and cultural celebration honors the death date of Ireland's patron saint, who lived in the fifth century, as well as celebrates Irish culture and heritage in a broader sense. Some of the most iconic things associated with the holiday include shamrocks (a type of clover), luck and the color green.
Here's a list of celebrities who were born on St. Patrick's day.
