Yesterday was Christa B Allen's 13th birthday, but something really weird was happening and then today she woke up and was 30 years old.
The star who played Jennifer Garner's younger self in the iconic movie 13 Going On 30 is now thirty, flirty and thriving.
The coming of age movie, released in 2004, is about a girl having a tough time who wishes she would turn 30 years old – a dream no one has had since nor anyone over that milestone would recommend.
To mark the occasion, there was only one way Christa could celebrate leaving her 20s and entering her third decade.
That was to spend the week in Vienna and recreate the scenes from the film that forged her career as well as Oscar-winning actress Brie Larson.

In a series of videos lasting 4 days, Christa has teased her birthday celebrations out with iconic scenes from the movie with a child actress who is now playing the younger version of herself, this time.
Fans flocked to the comments to send their love and wish a happy birthday to the actress who played a young Jenn 17 years ago.
The former child star is a huge hit on Tik Tok, with 1.7 million followers loving the content she creates about the film that made her famous. She introduced the latest mini-series last week.
Christa tweeted: "When I started my TikTok journey 2 years ago, I had no idea how much people would love 13 Going on 30 content. after several videos went viral, fans were asking for a sequel by the hundreds. this short series 'Vienna' is less of a sequel, more of a response- I hope you love it!."
It is fair to say that fans did indeed love it. One user said: "I love this soooo much!!! Self love is SO important and a practice we must cultivate so that we aren’t rushing to find fulfillment from things or people outside of ourselves."
The Hollywood star who played older Jenn joined the birthday well-wishers too, Jennifer Garner simply posted: "Happy Birthday @Christaallen !!!"
Now that Christa is officially 30 flirty and thriving, it may now be time for a full-circle sequel to the noughties classic.
