If so, you may find fulfillment in a career similar to that of Dr. Drew Pinsky, who was also born on September 4th. Your discipline will play a key role in whichever career you choose, very similar to another of your celebrity birthday twins, dedicated artist Beyonce Knowles<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
