Emilia Clarke turns 33 today. Happy birthday to the Mother of Dragons!
To mark the occasion, Clarke posted a typically charming video to her Instagram involving her air singing into a bottle of champagne and cracking herself up.
That’s pretty common of Clarke, who seems every bit as loose and fun-loving as Daenerys Targaryen is severe and laser-focused on her goal of taking the Iron Throne. Whenever Clarke appears on a talk show or a behind-the-scenes video, you pretty much know you’re going to be entertaining. It’s just very hard not to be charmed by her.
In fact, Clarke is so charming that there’s a whole 10-minute YouTube video on the subject by Charisma on Demand, breaking down the habits that make her so likable. At over 4 million views, it’s naturally one of the most popular videos on the channel. In honor of her birthday, let’s give it a watch and see if we can’t figure anything out!
So according to Charisma On Demand, Emilia Clarke is charming in part because of her frequent and beaming smile, her habit of building other people up rather than cutting them down, bringing a lot of energy to any situation she enters, and being an active listener. With these skills, you too can become a Mother of Being Delightful!
Or not, up to you. I just hope that Clarke gets to keep on being charming in Hollywood for a long time to come. Her next movie, Last Christmas, looks like it leans on her comic gifts:
Again, happy birthday!
