Drake Bell is celebrating his 40th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed actors of his generation.

Popular actor-singer-songwriter-comedian Drake Bell (Drake & Josh, The Amanda Show, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 40th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Bell, a cultural icon

Born Jared Drake Bell in Santa Ana on June 27, 1986, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Bell's not just a great actor, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Drake hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Drake Bell as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 40.

Happy Birthday, Drake, you're the best!
