Turning 50, even for a celeb,
doesn't guarantee a great year. In 2012, Tom Cruise got his divorce
papers and his musical, "Rock of Ages," panned just weeks shy of his
50th birthday. Demi Moore checked into rehab in January and witnessed
her ex gallivanting about with Mia Kunis before she hit the half-century
mark with an Abu Dhabi escape.
On the upside, Ralph Fiennes released his directorial debut of Shakespeare's "Coriolanus" this past February and got himself installed in the James Bond franchise — which also turned 50 — as the next M, guaranteeing royalty checks well into his sunset years. Jodie Foster took a break from filming her sci-fi project "Elysium" — with co-stars Matt Damon and Diego Luna — to deliver an elegant defense of Kristen Stewart (who incidentally had the honor of announcing that her knightress-in-shining-armor would receive the prestigious Cecil B. DeMille Award).
Good year or bad, just getting recognized for hitting the mid-century mark confirms a certain level of stardom. Next year, some high-wattage celebrities will be turning 50, among them some award-winning directors, the talented Helen Hunt, a kung-fu legend, and at least two Sexiest Men Alive alum. Take a look at who will be hitting the big milestone over the course of 2013, their birthdays and, of course, their Western zodiac signs.
