Happy Birthday To Internet King (And Future Broadway Star) George Takei

Happy birthday to George Takei! With all the work the out entertainer and activist does—and how great he looks—it's a little hard to believe he's 78. But it's true!

If you need more Takei in your life (and who doesn't) you can check out It Takeis Two, his new web series with hubby Brad Altman Takei.

And make plans to head to New York this fall for the debut of Allegiance, the Broadway musical that recounts George's childhood in a WWII internment camp in Arkansas.  Directed by Stafford Arima, the show stars Takei, Lea Salonga (Miss Saigon) and Telly Leung (Godspell, Glee).
