E’S cute, confident,
H smart, sassy, multi-talented and owner of the most famous pair of ears on the planet. He’s also 90 years old and still going strong – and how many stars have that claim to fame?
He is, of course, Mickey Mouse, the white-gloved, high-voiced marvel who enabled his creator to build an empire.
Award-winning movies, countless TV shows, masses of merchandise, hugely profitable theme parks – they all feature that famous round head and instantly recognisable ears.
Walt Disney himself never forgot the magic of the mouse he created. “I only hope that we never lose sight of one thing,” he once said, “that it was all started by a mouse.”
To celebrate his milestone birthday, we look back at Mickey’s marvellous life.
A STAR IS BORN…
