Alexander Skarsgard has been overseas with his girlfriend Kate Bosworth, though he'll be back in LA by this weekend to present at the Emmys.

Great Expectations: Can Birthday Partying Go Too Far?

Whether you begin counting down as soon the six-month mark passes or shrink at the coming of your birthday month, the anniversary of you is a reason to celebrate.

Whether you begin counting down as soon the six-month mark passes or shrink at the coming of your birthday month, the anniversary of you is a reason to celebrate. But while some people eagerly broadcast the changing-of-their-age well in advance, others will let the day pass without fanfare, or even acknowledgment. They may even be (genuinely) mortified if a friend, co-worker, or Facebook leaks it. Maybe it has to do with introversion and extroversion, but some people are birthday people, and others simply aren't.

So when it comes to throwing your birthday bash, there is a great divide in how to go about it. Some won't plan anything — maybe concede to a dinner out with close friends (but do not draw attention with candles) — and others will plan their own party. While a few will go all out with a weekend party, a dinner on the actual day, and festivities in between.

I've heard of parades that go from house to bar and birthday charades that last all month long. So when planning your day, can it go too far? Or when it's your birthday, should you party as you want to?

Justin Timberlake, Paris Hilton, and Ciara headed out to Drai's Hollywood in LA last night to celebrate Timbaland's birthday. Paris got the party started by showing off her moves on a stripper's pole, as she continues making the club rounds following her breakup from Doug Reinhardt. She was wearing a skimpy dress, though was still a lot more covered up than at her weekend bikini party. Justin Timberlake, meanwhile, raised his glass to his frequent collaborator Timbaland after their last single "Carry Out" hit airwaves in February.

If you're a birthday fanatic like I am, check out these three sites for a fast, easy way to find fun info about your date of birth. Or check 'em out before heading to a friend's birthday party for a nice, long list of birthday-themed conversation starters.

  • What song was #1? Do you know which song topped the charts the day you were born? A feature on This Day In Music will tell you! Just enter your date of birth (or any other day you're curious about) and the finder will tell you what songs were on the top of the US, UK, and Australian charts. (My birthday "theme song" is "Don't You Want Me?" by Human League.) There's even one-click access to buy a framed LP (or CD, if you or the intended recipient is searching for a chart-topper after 1992).
