The birthday celebration for Helen Mirren continues.

The photo gallery has been updated with pictures of Helen’s public appearances in 2013. It has not yet another busy year, with the West End opening of “The Audience”, for which she won the Olivier award, her performance in “Hitchcock” for which she received Golden Globe, BAFTA and SAG nominations, and her own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. With these additions, the gallery now boasts over 100.000 pictures. That’s amazing – and insane, because most of the public appearances haven’t been added yet, so there’s much more to come.
