July 9 was Claire Corlett's birthday, she is of course the talented young woman who voices Sweetie Belle (and has voiced a handful of other characters in recent seasons as a result of her maturation). Her father is also a voice actor in his own right, Ian James Corlett whose only voice acting role on this show has been Silver Shill. But Ian may be recognizable to you as the first English voice of adult Goku during the first season of the Ocean dub of Dragon Ball Z, main character Bill in

I don't know how I've done it, but I've managed to hit 650 followers as of today. To all of you who've been following me (or just started following me) thank you, and I hope to continue to make you proud.

I don't really have a big celebration in mind at the moment, but if you'd like feel free to let me know why you followed me and some things you might like to see from me in the future. Keep in mind, it has to be PG/PG-13 though.

There are two birthdays I missed that really needed to be mentioned. October 15 was Chantel Strand's birthday, she is the talented woman who voiced Diamond Tiara in Seasons 1-5 and also voiced Spoiled Rich in the character's few appearances in Seasons 5 and 6. She was also among the VAs who alternated in the role of Bon-Bon for one off appearances until Andrea Libman became the definitive voice in Season 5 (Chantel's performance can be heard in "Green Isn't Your Color"). She also happens to be

Yes folks, today is my birthday! Hard to believe I'm 25 years old already (I feel so old)!

It's been an honor to be a part of this fandom for so many years, and even as the end of the show looms I for one intend to stick around afterward. The show end, but the fandom doesn't have to.

It's that time of year again, folks!

Yes, it's Christmas once again. And of course, that means different things to different people. For some it's simply a time of giving and receiving gifts, for some it's a time of helping those less fortunate than others, for others still it's a time to spend with friends and family while stuffing your face full and watching Christmas movies and specials.

Today is Kelly Sheridan's birthday. She is the talented woman who voiced Starlight Glimmer, Sassy Saddles, Misty Fly and a handful of other characters throughout G4. Although one of the more obscure Vancouver voice actors, she has had a prolific career, including a number of roles in projects shared with the late Kirby Morrow.

Today is Kazumi Evans' birthday. She is the talented woman who served as Rarity's singing double across all nine seasons of FiM. She was also the singing double for Princess Luna in the character's first singing appearance, before the role would be recast to Aloma Steele for subsequent songs. Of course, Kazumi also had a couple of voice acting roles that included: Adagio Dazzle, Moondancer and Octavia Melody in both pony and human form.

Today is Brian Drummond's birthday. He is the talented man who provided the voice of countless secondary and one-off characters across the show's nine seasons. These include (but are not limited to): Mr. Carrot Cake, Filthy Rich, Sea Breeze, Double Diamond, Dr. Muffin Top, Sheriff Silverstar and Ahuizotl. Oddly enough, Mr. Cake never got any speaking lines after Season 5 and Brian didn't voice any characters at all during Season 8 for reasons unknown (he came back for Season 9 though).

Today (April 6) is Kathleen Barr's birthday. She is the woman who voiced Trixie in Seasons 1 and 3, and then reoccurringly from Seasons 6-9. And she also voiced Queen Chrysalis, arguably the most reoccurring major villain in the show. Not to mention a few minor roles including one of the three "bullies" in "Sonic Rainboom". Interestingly, Kathleen has reprised the role of Trixie for "Pony Life". And I believe I've mentioned how for Chrysalis she originally had an echo filter, but it was removed

Today is Nicole Oliver's birthday. She is the talented woman who voiced Princess Celestia and Cheerilee across the show's nine seasons. She also voiced a couple of one off characters like Tree Hugger and Fleur De Lis, and was the original voice of Spitfire in the character's first speaking appearance, and as if to make up for the role being recast to Kelly Metzeger for subsequent appearances, Nicole Oliver was given the role of Dr. Fauna for two episodes whereas the character had originally

Today is Matt Hill's birthday. He is the talented man who voiced Soarin in various episodes across the show's nine seasons, and he also voiced a handful of minor characters as well. Matt of course is a fairly prolific voice actor who has provided the voice for such roles as Ed on Ed, Edd n' Eddy, Iron Hide on Transformers Energon and Rapahel on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation among others.

Today is Cathy Wesluck's birthday. She is the talented woman who voiced Spike across all nine seasons of "Friendship is Magic", and was also the voice of Coco Pommel before legal issues caused her name to be changed to Miss Pommel (and subsequently saw her be written out of the show entirely). She also voiced numerous side and background characters. Interestingly, she opted not to return for "Pony Life" with Spike instead being taken over by Tabitha St. Germain.

Today is Chantal Strand's birthday, she is the talented young woman who voiced Diamond Tiara through the first five seasons, as well as Spoiled Rich in a few one-off cameos, and she voiced a few other characters here and there too including Bon-Bon in "Green Isn't Your Color". However, we've learned now that while the show staff wanted to do more stuff with Diamond Tiara after her redemption, Hasbro shot every idea pitched to them down, which is quite sad.

Today is Rebecca Shoichet's birthday. She is the talented woman who was Twilight Sparkle's singing double across the nine seasons of the show. Then, of course, she rose to prominence voicing Sunset Shimmer in the Equestria Girls franchise, as well as becoming the voice of Sugar Belle and Night Glider for FiM beginning in Season 5.

Rebecca has had a number of roles before and since, including She Hulk and more recently Captain Marvel (from Marvel, not DC).

I'll be going out of town on family vacation for the next couple of days, and won't be back until late Monday at the earliest. As a result, I won't be able to post a blog on my actual birthday (August 18). I'm turning 29 years old, one more year until I hit 30. Things seem to be settling into a pattern for me, at least for now. Probably gonna be a few more years still before I'm ready to live completely on my own.

Yesterday was Michelle Creber's birthday. She is of course the talented young woman who voices Apple Bloom, and has recently voiced a few other characters on the show, including some of the Wonderbolts. And for the first three seasons she was the singing voice for Sweetie Belle (Claire Corlett would take over starting in Season 4).

Happy birthday, Michelle. It's kind of a shame that Apple Bloom seems to have been forgotten, especially now that she's the only CMC member without living parents.

Today is Shanon Chan-Kent's birthday. She is the talented woman who was Pinkie Pie's singing voice for most of the show (there were only two times Andrea Libman stood in), interestingly she would voice Pinkie Pie in two Season 2 episodes ("The Cutie Pox" and "Ponyville Confidential" which are both notable for Fluttershy appearing but not speaking, her cry in the latter is a recycled stock sound).
