Walken Proud Of Dastardly Cake Ploy

Hollywood actor [Christopher Walken](https://contactmusic.6lgx.com/christopher-walken) frequently pretends it's his birthday on film sets, to trick the cast and crew into giving him vast amounts of cake and champagne.

The SLEEPY HOLLOW star makes his co-stars feel so guilty about missing his big day, they throw a fabulous party for the mischievous trickster.

He explains, "I sit in the make-up trailer very early in the morning and while the lady is patting my face with the brush. I look very sad.

"Sooner or later she'll ask, 'What's the matter? You look a little down today.'

"So, I'll say, 'I'm alright.' Then she'll finally ask again: 'Come on, what is it?'

"Then I reply. 'It's my birthday, and I'm sad, because I'm alone...and I don't have a cake. But don't tell anybody.'

"By lunchtime a cake is wheeled out with bottles of champagne, and we all have a lot of fun."
