[edit] Year of birth should be 1972?

In all the sources I've come across the birth year is given as 1972. [1] [2] [3] Even the french wikipedia reflects this, so I'm going to correct this if no one objects, eh? jibun_{~~παντα ρει~~} (keskustele!) 21:22, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

Changed per above as it appears that the German WP concurs, too, so to me that seems like a consensus (two out of three). Personally, I think the sources for biographical info of many screen actors are often not of primary, secondary, or even tertiary kind — they're just "general knowledge" which means the info trickles down from entertainment tabloids (interviews etc.) and generally can't be pinned down to a single source unless the actor is well known. And this is compounded by the fact that in Hollywood women actors are in many cases compelled to obfuscate (ie. lie about) their real age for marketing purposes. I digress — this article was started by User:Redreth and in April 2006 he seemed to think that the correct birth year was 1972 but then came along anonymous user User:70.81.84.202 with his/her only contributions to the contrary. So I reverted. —jibun_{≈παντα ρει≈} (keskustele!) 23:02, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
