Today is Tracee Ellis Ross‘s 47th birthday. Today is also Gabrielle Union‘s 47th birthday. It’s not common for two major starlets to share the same birthday and to also be friends, but that has been the case for these two lovable actresses.

They both are businesswomen, securing great opportunities, including clothing collaborations with big affordable brands. They have quirky, fun personalities. They are open and honest about their lives and the lengths they go to take care of themselves, body and spirit. That’s not all, though. Hit the flip to see 10 other ways Gabrielle Union and Tracee Ellis Ross are alike aside from sharing the same born day and being gorgeous.
