Rob’s 25th Birthday Montageâ„¢
Rob – 25 is such a milestone. Â It feels like yesterday that I prepared your 23 photos for your 23rd and I Â know it was only two years ago, but God have you taken us for the ride of our lives and there’s still more to come. Â I haven’t had a chance to finish the vid I’m working on and I just didn’t want to rush it – so you’ll just have to be patient, but in the meantime I thought I’d walk us down memory lane with a glance at Rob over the last 25 years. Â There’s no particular rhyme or reason for the pics I’ve included or they way I’ve posted them – I’ve done one from each movie but definitely not one from each Appearance or Photoshoot – sheesh – I didn’t want to miss Rob’s 25th. Â HAPPY 25TH BIRTHDAY ROB! Â I hope the next year brings you much health and happiness, but more importantly a little rest (not that I don’t want you filming 3 movies a year *winks*).
Thanks to kathyWath89 and kOdak_mOmentz for the gifs.

@Maria I was wondering why you hadn’t posted anything for his birthday. Not that I thought you had forgotten,of course not. You would forget your own birthday before you would forget Robs. I guess I was getting impatient. I always forget, that when it’s my morning it’s still the middle of the night on your side of the world. The montage is amazing like always. Thanks a million for letting us relive through this gorgeous montage just how much his grown, and why it is we love him so much. Thank you Maria.
Rob may you have a wonderful birthday, you deserve nothing but the best, thank you so much for bringing us all together here, and for bringing so much beauty into our live. We love so very much. God bless you today and always. Mwuah!
Martha M
Oh Maria you included my Dali, thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I submitted a comment but it didn’t show up, maybe because it was a bit long, I hope it turns up.
Roberta
Maria… You’re great! And Rob… he’s simply the most beautiful creature on earth! Thank you for this dear and Happy Birthday Rob! Have a great one!!!
Michelle
Happy Birthday Rob *throws streamers* I hope you have the most wonderful birthday. No one deserves it more than you. Maria your montage is absolutely beautiful. Have been sitting here looking at it for ages with the biggest smile on my face. The perfect birthday tribute to Rob. Just love taking a trip down Rob memory lane & reminiscing all his amazing achievements so far. It’s just wonderful 😀
I just approved your comment Martha. WP seems to like taking them hostage these days – grrrrr! Sorry it didn’t show up. WP really is the devil!
Martha M
Thanks Michelle no worries.
Belinda
What a way to start the day-celebrating this gorgeous boy on the most auspicious of occasions! Happy Birthday!!
I feel dizzy with delirium-SO BEAUTIFUL. Thanks Maria you NEVER disappoint!! Kisses and hugs to the Red Carpet girls!
Sare
*cracks open a beer* Happy Birthday Rob! You deserve every success you’ve earned so far. I’ve had a ball watching him grow as an actor over the last 3 years and I simply can’t wait for the years ahead. Hope he can have relaxing few days before the he has to get back into the swing of things again for Cosmopolis.
Thanks for this Maria. Love your montages.
Maria
LOL @Martha – I didn’t want to stay up (or I should say couldn’t) until midnight to post – the last few weeks have just shattered me. There’s just no time for anything anymore. I just thought the montage was a good tribute to him and well – yes he has grown so so much plus there a pics in there we don’t always post.
He’s a beautiful man – he deserves a beautiful life *giggles*
I’m off to see WFE tomorrow again for the third time – who’s with me?
Sare
That tyler gif is a weakness of mine!
@Maria Im seeing it tomorrow! Can not wait!
Martha M
@Maria you know that if I lived in driving distance from you, I would most certainly be going with you!
Vicky
Maria, your montage is amazing!!! Perfect way to celebrate Rob’s birthday. Oh and BTW when it comes to Rob i’m always with you!!
Happy birthday Rob. I read this somewhere but I can’t remember where, it just seems perfect in so many ways, “Dream like you’ll live forever and live like you’ll die today”. May good fortune and great health always smile upon you!! Enjoy your day and thank you for sharing so much of yourself with all of us.
Maria
I know @Martha it would be so good
Maria
@Vicky I believe James Dean has been quoted as saying that – which is ironic considering the comparisons of late
Maria
Oh and I love that quote @Vicky as much as the one from Strictly Ballroom which I live by – “a life lived in fear is a life half lived”
Rob thanks for giving us the best birthday gift ever last Friday night!
Vicky
Yes I love the Strictly Ballroom one as well Maria.
Val
Ladies I am sure Rob is feeling the love in the room today 🙂 Its’ so nice he might have a chance to enjoy it – has he actually got a day off work?! (Have been holding out to see W4E for the first time with my friend tomorrow night -she introduced me to Rob’s acting talent last year and so this waiting is a small sacrifice, lol)
Thank you for the lovely montage Maria. Beautiful. Just quietly, I’m crushing on Dorky Rob with the (barcelona?) glasses 😛
Michelle
Ain’t that the truth Maria, best birthday present EVER last Friday *drifts back to the heaven that was Friday night* THANK YOU Rob!! 😀
Cannot wait for my third viewing of WFE tomorrow *claps hands* Yep I know where I’ll be every weekend now *grins*
Carolyn
@Maria that montage is fabulous. An amazing tribute to an amazing person who brings so much joy, pleasure, beauty, giggles, entertainment etc, etc (I could go on for ages) to so many of us. Best of all he’s helped to make strangers from near and far into friends.
Rob you’re a treasure…Happy 25th Birthday!!! *clinking glasses with you all*
Jan

Belinda
You have such a dry sense of humour Jan. Double celebrations today-Rob’s birthday and a Pies win. CLASSIC!!
Maria
The omen Jan? Lol
Maria
@Val I believe Rob is working today re Cosmopolis since he flew direct to Toronto from Sydney. They would have to be doing rehearsals / script reviews at this stage
Liz
Awesome pictures!
So many good ones.
Can’t wait to meet Georges after that little refresher!
Many days I wish I was a cigarette, but can I say after image 23, I’d also be a very happy microphone.
Maria
Lol @Liz
Vertigo
Absolutely brilliant tribute montage Maria, it’s perfect! I’m completely floored by this man’s evolution and the way he moves from strength to strength. Here’s to many more!
I’ll be squeezing in another W4E performance this weekend, you betcha!
Vertigo

Val
@Carmel, I love your comment about wishing him to have “some idea of the joy and friendship” that he is indeed fostering around the world. What a wonderful way to put it (and also how to express what we all feel here, this safe & happy haven you girls have formed in his honour)
