Year-End 2007

LAUREN GRAHAM

Turned 40: March 16
With the end of the Gilmore Girls, Lauren Graham is starting a new era in her life, transitioning to the big screen with the comedies Evan Almighty and Because I Said So. She'll next be seen in Flash of Genius with Dermot Mulroney. But the actress, who also inked a development deal with NBC, isn't all work and no play. "For my [40th] birthday, I rented a frozen margarita machine," she tells InStyle.
