Before he had us wading in a pool of tears with his performance in The Fault in Our Stars, Ansel Elgort made his bloody debut in 2013’s thriller Carrie. Now the star, who turns 23 today (March 14), is known for The Fault In Our Stars and the Divergent film series. He'll reprise Caleb Prior in the YA adaptation’s upcoming fourth and final installment, Ascendant, and he also plays the titular character in Baby Driver with Jon Hamm, Jamie Foxx and Lily James. Not only that, but the budding singer has released two songs, "Home Alone" and "Thief."

Since Ansel remains a rising young talent, it only makes sense that we help you get the scoop on all there is to know about the actor and EDM artist. We’re wishing him a happy birthday with some surprising facts you may not have known about the star.
