Country music legend Kris Kristofferson celebrated his 69th birthday this week, fresh back from a sell-out Irish tour.

Kristofferson, who with Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings, was one of the Highwaymen, is heading to Australia next month with a tour that kicks off in Queensland on July 27.

When he is in Australia, his latest movie 'The Jacket' will also premiere in cinemas. Kristofferson plays a well meaning doctor who prescribes a heavy course of experimental drugs which causes him to see his future death in the gothic thriller.
