“I’ve always said that age is just a number and I have never paid much attention to birthdays, but it’s great to finally know how old I really am!” the actress said in a statement Sunday.

Age is just a number for Doris Day ― a higher number than she thought.
The star of such films as “Pillow Talk” and “That Touch of Mink” discovered that she turned 95 on Monday, not 93 as believed by many including Day herself, The Associated Press reported.
AP recently dug up Day’s birth certificate from Ohio’s Office of Vital Statistics, revealing a birthdate of April 3, 1922, for Doris Mary Kappelhoff, her real name before show business. Day, who had presumed she was born in 1924, was delighted with the news.

Even as of early Monday, a Google search of “Doris Day” and “age” indicated 93.

No, Hollywood legend Doris Day is not making her comeback in Clint Eastwood's next movie.
Strange rumours of a new film project for the 93-year-old actress-singer started in a German tabloid, eventually catching fire online.
