If you want your child to grow up and become a Eurovision star, you may want to induce labor on October 16. Why? Because on that day — in 1983, 1990 and 1991, respectively — Loreen, Yohanna and Jedward each came into the world. What a coincidence!
Loreen (31)
Loreen, winner of Eurovision 2012, has packed a lot into her 31 years—including a landslide victory in Baku!
Yohanna (24)
This Icelandic princess is perhaps the only contestant ever to feature dolphins on her Eurovision LED screen. We love a woman who loves nature! So does Europe: she finished second.
Jedward (23)
Jedward helped revive interest in Eurovision in Ireland en route to back-to-back trips to the final. They placed 8th in 2011 and 19th in 2012. They’ve been blessed with a whole lot of love on Twitter this morning.
It’s Our Birthday! Wow 23 thank you for all the Birthday wishes

As all you Jedheads know, John Paul Henry Daniel Richard Grimes is 10 minutes older than Edward Peter Anthony Kevin Patrick Grimes.
Jedward: John + Eduard
HA HA Very funny. Now tell us Jedward’s real names.
Awesome!
And I mean that in the sense that I find it hard to believe that she pulled off such an amazing performance in Eurovision when she was just 18. (Subtract 5 years, and then take into account that it wasn’t her 19th birthday yet when Eurovision hit…)
Yohanna is only 24? Wow.
Happy birthday 🙂
