Yes, we're back for 2018 - and again this year, we'll start each month by celebrating the biggest birthdays coming up.

The February Birthday's feature the British singer who says he's been visited by aliens 3 times.. and at number 1 it's the ultimate triple threat! Along the way, we'll also send a birthday cheerio to film legend Sidney Poitier and a former TV show host who says he wouldn't watch his show. All that and more on the February Birthdays Countdown!
