Billy Idol is celebrating his 69th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed singers of his generation.

Popular singer Billy Idol (Rebel Yell, White Wedding, Mony Mony, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 69th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Idol, a cultural icon

Born William Michael Albert Broad in Stanmore on November 30, 1955, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in British history. Idol's not just a great singer, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Billy hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Billy Idol as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 69.

Happy Birthday, Billy, you're the best!
