  Is Simon Pegg secretly gay and hiding in the closet?

Simon Pegg is celebrating his 56th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed actors of his generation.

Popular actor-comedian-author-producer-director Simon Pegg (Star Trek, Hot Fuzz, Mission: Impossible III, Shaun of the Dead, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 56th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Pegg, a cultural icon

Born Simon John Beckingham in Brockworth on February 14, 1970, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Pegg'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 Simon hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Simon Pegg as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 56.

Happy Birthday, Simon, you're the best!
