Charles Barkley Gets a Pleasant Birthday Surprise from Stevie Wonder.

When you're Stevie Wonder, you don't have to be asked twice to start singing.

Such was the case before the All-Star Game Sunday, when Wonder was informed it was TNT commentator Charles Barkley's birthday.

Wonder instantly broke into song, obviously, and I'm guessing Barkley was happy about it.

Barkley seems to be loved by pretty much everyone these days, despite saying long ago he "wasn't a role model."

But who gets a birthday song from Stevie Wonder?

Not many people, only a fortunate few.

Everytime it's my birthday some drunk guy or gal (usually both) drools on my arm and asks me for change or a beer.

I say, "Change? We all need a little change."

"Beer? You don't need a beer."

That happens to me every year, and every year and say the same line.

That gets old, let me tell you.

Charles Barkley probably could get Oprah to sing him Happy Birthday if he wanted.

I know Dwyane Wade would.

Probably not LeBron James.

But this has got to be a high point for Chuck, even after his esteemed playing and broadcasting career.

I mean, that song was awesome!
