Oprah Winfrey (1/29/1954, Aquarius Snake), Alice Walker (2/9/1944, Aquarius Monkey) : The author and iconic media personality share a close and supportive bond, arising out of Walker's book, The Color Purple (1982). Winfrey has described: "When I read the first line...I remember sitting home and I think it took my breath away literally. You know, people use that phrase. But, I could not breathe. So, after reading the first passage, the first letter...I remember closing the book and weeping, because my God, this is my story. This is my story. Somebody knows how I felt." Winfrey went on to win an Oscar nomination for her performance in the Steven Spielberg's movie, The Color Purple (1985). When Winfrey produced a Broadway production of the novel, Walker said: "[Winfrey's involvement is a] blessing. Oprah and I come from a part of the country where we understand certain realities. She's not just telling you about something as if she's an observer. She has lived a life that is as deep and as painful and as joyful and as depthful as any of the characters. And that's why she I think really captures the imagination of people."

After Dern awarded Lynch an honorary Oscar in 2019, she described: "[Our relationship] just gets better and better. He’s incredible! He’s everything you want him to be...[He] was holding [the Oscar] and I said, 'How do you feel?' and he goes, 'Wow, this is so pretty. But you know, we’re just lucky...I mean, Tidbit [Tidbit is a nickname that Lynch uses for Dern], they’re not our ideas. We’re just lucky if we catch them.' And I’m just like, 'Yeah, well, that’s David Lynch.' They’re not our ideas. Things move through us. We didn’t make them up. I just think that’s really beautiful."

He said in 2018: "I loved Diane...It just wasn’t attainable, and in that hero mentality, you get exhausted, and then when you get exhausted, you get resentful, and then all that stuff comes out. So I feel bad that I didn’t have the presence of mind or the maturity or whatever to understand that early on."

Gemma Arterton (2/2/1986, Aquarius Ox), Hannah Arterton (1/26/1989, Aquarius Dragon) : The two English actors are sisters who share a supportive relationship.

I think my parents thought, 'Oh, well it keeps them quiet...' ...I never thought I could really ever do it. But Gem's success... Someone from our background and our world achieving global success was just so inspiring for everyone. She had the talent, but more than that, she had the ambition. She didn't dream small."

But we’re recognizing that now and so, let’s work at it and let’s go through this together as a team and it’s been great."

In 2022, Driver described: "[Addison loves me] better and more fully [than anyone ever has]. We have the most hilarious and wonderful relationship on all these different levels...Of course I would wind up with a person who, in his own words, the reason he doesn’t want to get married is: ‘Why would I want to be in a throuple with the state of California?’… he’s like: ‘I don’t want to institutionalise love.'...[For me,] I don’t need to be formally married, but I would like a celebration of the ritual, I like that."

Speaking about the former film, which addresses the trauma of Cave losing his fifteen-year-old son Arthur in a tragic accident, Dominik described: "That movie was a practical response to a practical problem...[Cave] realised that at some point he’d have to promote the record he was working on. How the f— was he going to do that without talking about Arthur?...I understood what he meant, so his idea was to make a film...What Nick has to say is very simple. You see him groping in all kinds of directions in One More Time With Feeling, but it’s not a million different paths – it’s one path. That’s the one we show in the film. When something like that happens to you, there’s no response but complete authenticity. People respond to authenticity with authenticity. All of a sudden you’re in this together and it makes you love your fellow man. It will happen to all of us."

Ed, I just wanna say, I love you, brother." In 2021, Sheeran said, "Stormzy is the most good-hearted successful person I know that genuinely is overjoyed for my success. I can't take that for granted, because I don't have many friends who are famous musicians. I have lots of acquaintances and lots of people who I hang out with, but I would class Stormzy as a brother."

Asked about Hawn's supposed reputation for being "difficult" to work with, Hudson described in 2023: "[Hawn] had to really fight for a lot of these movies to be made [and] was seen by a lot of people as difficult and complicated because she had a point of view. She decided to tell people that told her to stay in her lane to go f— themselves and basically started producing her own movies, which wasn’t happening at the time...I saw her strength. I saw her conviction. She’s so determined. I mean she’s really unbelievable. She was on the cutting edge of this and she never gave up. Twenty years now and she’s finally getting her sort of kudos for what she’s been creating but she doesn’t let up. I don’t even know what I must’ve done in a past life to be born to her as a mother."
