Celebrities who were born in unusual places

Such a glut of celebrities were born in Los Angeles or New York—boring. Miss Dunaway, by contrast, was born in a shack in podunk Bascom, Florida, population 121.

OP: THAT'S what Faye has morphed into? She looks like Leslie Caron and Mary Tyler Moore had a baby, in a cement mixer.

Probably the best well know celebrity born in unusual place would be Freddie Mercury born in Zanzibar. I had to look up what that is today and apparently it’s part of Tanzania now. Wonder what it’s like. It always seemed so exotic growing up. Much like Timbuktu, which apparently is just a hole in the wall trading market.

The Meadows sister, Audrey and Jane, were born in China where their parents were missionaries. Juliet Prowse was born in South Africa. A whole lot of British celebrities were born in India and lists are easily found. The one that surprised me was Cliff Richard
