Compatibility
Aries Rooster and Capricorn Dog

Brad Hall (3/21/1958, Aries Dog), Julia Louis-Dreyfus (1/13/1961, Capricorn Rat) : The two actors have been married since 1987 and have two children. Describing how they worked together on the short film, Picture Paris (2012), Louis-Dreyfus said: "The reality is that we really collaborate on everything. And we have worked with each other a number of times in the past, but this was particularly elevating and thrilling because we were calling the shots. We both felt like we were back in Chicago doing theater — like we were 25 or 30 years ago. We were our bosses then, and if he was happy and I was happy, we’d move on together. This had a very indie feeling and I loved it. It was a very exhilarating experience."

Jim Parsons (3/24/1973, Aries Ox), Todd Spiewak (1/19/1977, Capricorn Dragon) : The actor and producer have been in a romantic partnership for around 20 years, and also run a production company together. For years the prospect of them marrying was a topic of talk show and press speculation, and in 2014 Parsons posted a statement denying a report in The National Enquirer that the two were engaged. They eventually married in 2017. Speaking about the relationship, Parsons described in 2013: "I've never considered my relationship with Todd to be an act of activism. Rather simply, it's an act of love, coffee in the morning, going to work, washing the clothes, taking the dogs [out] — a regular life, boring love."

Emma Thompson (4/15/1959, Aries Pig), Anthony Hopkins (12/31/1937, Capricorn Ox) : The two British actors are good friends who have collaborated multiple times, including in the films, Remains of the Day (1993), Howard's End (1992), and King Lear (2018). Thompson described in 2018: "I’m fearless now. I was doing King Lear with Tony Hopkins and he said, 'Isn’t it great? I can do absolutely anything now.' That’s how I feel...[Hopkins] watches and listens and he’s completely without defenses or any internal systems that might get in the way. He’s not protecting himself. You know that you can do anything and what will come back from him has nothing to do with the actor and everything to do with the part. He’s remarkable in that way."

Eddie Murphy (4/3/1961, Aries Ox), Nicole Mitchell Murphy (1/5/1968, Capricorn Sheep) : The actor/comedian and model were married from 1993 to 2006 and have five children together. They began their relationship in the late 1980s, although separated briefly in 1990, during which time Eddie Murphy fathered a child with casting director Tamara Hood.

Elton John (3/25/1947, Aries Pig), Rod Stewart (1/10/1945, Capricorn Monkey) : The two celebrated UK singers have shared a famously contrary relationship, going back to Stewart's cover of the Elton/Bernie Taupin song, 'Country Comfort' in 1970, about which Elton said: "[Stewart] couldn’t have got further from the original if he’d sung 'The Camptown Races'!" During the 1980s, Elton playfully shot down a blimp promoting a forthcoming tour by Stewart. In 2019, things turned more serious for a time, after Stewart accused Elton's farewell tour of "money-grabbing". Stewart later explained: "I was a bit spiteful when he announced his tour. I regret it, I really do regret it. So we’re mates again now. I do love him. We’ve always been fierce enemies, as you know, through the years, but it’s always been at a playful level. But we had the worst row, like a married couple. It went on forever."

Mackenzie Scott (4/7/1970, Aries Dog), Jeff Bezos (1/12/1964, Capricorn Rabbit) : The author and Amazon founder were married from 1993 to 2019 and had four children together. Shortly after they announced their separation, it emerged that Bezos had been the victim of an extortion attempt about an affair with Lauren Sanchez, a former news anchor. In the 1990s, Bezos and Scott shared adjacent offices at a hedge fund office in New York, before Bezos developed his idea to sell books over the internet, and the couple moved to Seattle. Scott described in 2013: "I have no business sense whatsoever, but I saw how excited [Bezos] was...Jeff is the opposite of me. He likes to meet people. He’s a very social guy. Cocktail parties for me can be nerve-racking. The brevity of conversations, the number of them—it’s not my sweet spot."

Mariah Carey (3/27/1969, Aries Rooster), Madonna (8/16/1958, Leo Dog) : A longstanding feud between the two music superstars has seen them exchange harsh criticisms. Said Madonna, "We have to realize that the same country that acquitted O.J. is the same country that...buys Mariah Carey records. It's this homogeneity. But it's got nothing to do with art." Carey responded, "I really haven't paid attention to Madonna since I was in seventh or eighth grade when she used to be popular."

Tucker Carlson (5/16/1969, Taurus Rooster), Donald Trump (6/14/1946, Gemini Dog) : The 45th US President and media personality had appeared to have a supportive relationship, with Carlson being described in 2020 as, "[P]erhaps the highest-profile proponent of 'Trumpism'." However, private messages revealed in early 2023 revealed Carlson's antipathy towards Trump. Carlson's messages included: "All of [Trump's business ventures] fail. What he’s good at is destroying things. He’s the undisputed world champion of that."; "We are very, very close to being able to ignore Trump most nights. I truly can’t wait...I hate him passionately."; and "[Trump's] a demonic force, a destroyer. But he’s not going to destroy us. I’ve been thinking about this every day for four years."

Meghan Markle (8/4/1981, Leo Rooster), Prince William (6/21/1982, Cancer Dog) : The complex relationship between Meghan Markle and Prince Harry and other members of the British royal family, particularly Harry's brother Prince William and his wife Princess Catherine, has become one of the most famous feuds of all time. During the Netflix documentary series, Harry & Meghan, Markle spoke about a senior aide to William who gave unfavourable evidence in a lawsuit she brought against an English tabloid. "It's your brother," Markle said to Harry on screen. "Not gonna say anything about your brother, but it's so obvious."

Quincy Jones (3/14/1933, Pisces Rooster), Michael Jackson (8/29/1958, Virgo Dog) : The producer and musician collaborated on the celebrated albums Off the Wall, Thriller, and Bad. Since Jackson's death, Jones has been outspoken in his criticisms of the "King of Pop", saying, "Michael stole a lot of stuff. He stole a lot of songs...The notes don’t lie, man. He was as Machiavellian as they come. Greedy, man. Greedy."

Priscilla Presley (5/24/1945, Gemini Rooster), Elvis Presley (1/8/1935, Capricorn Dog) : The musician dubbed "The King of Rock and Roll" and the actor/businesswoman met when Priscilla was 14. They later had a famously troubled marriage. Both reportedly had multiple affairs. Priscilla described how Elvis stopped being attracted to her after their daughter was born, as he "had a hard time dealing with me being a mother and the little girl that I was to him", and referred to herself as "Elvis’ living doll, to fashion as he pleased."

Errol Flynn (6/20/1909, Gemini Rooster), David Niven (3/1/1910, Pisces Dog) : The two actors from Hollywood's golden age were frequent co-stars and lived together for a time. Niven's memoirs included seriously unflattering descriptions of Flynn. "The great thing about Errol," Niven wrote, "was you always knew exactly where you stood with him because he always let you down."

Minnie Driver (1/31/1970, Aquarius Rooster), Matt Damon (10/8/1970, Libra Dog) : The two actors were a high-profile celebrity couple after they began dating while co-starring in Good Will Hunting. Driver has claimed that Damon effectively broke up with her by announcing on Oprah that he was single: "It seemed like a good forum for him to announce to the world that we were no longer together, which I found fantastically inappropriate. Of course, he was busy declaring his love for me on David Letterman a month previously."
