Cruise told Rolling Stone shortly before their break-up: "Since I’ve been with [Rogers], it’s opened me up a lot. I think it’s helped me be a better actor. We live a lot of life together.

Lemmon described: "Another thing I loved about The Apartment...was the fact that there were so many faults with the characters. Billy was never afraid.

Selena Gomez (7/22/1992, Cancer Monkey), The Weeknd (2/16/1990, Aquarius Horse) : These two successful singer/songwriter/producers shared a high-profile relationship in 2017. Asked about The Weeknd influencing her music during their relationship, Gomez described: "No, I think for me I like to keep that really separate...I think it's so important and I spent so much time making sure that everything that I do, I do for myself. So as much as that has been inspiring because I love to be inspired by people that I do love and care about, but I'm a big advocate on making sure that I'm doing it for me. Because the moment I start doing something because I'm influenced by someone else, whoever it may be, it just doesn't work out so believe it or not, I keep that very, very separate, which is good."

John Lennon (10/9/1940, Libra Dragon), Yoko Ono (2/18/1933, Aquarius Rooster) : The famous musicians and artists were committed peace activists who married in 1969. Their intense bond has attracted controversy with many attributing the break up of the Beatles in part to their relationship. Less than three months before his murder in December 1980, Lennon described his connection with Ono in an interview: "It is a teacher-pupil relationship. That's what people don't understand.

Shortly before their marriage, Stefani described: "I think there was a lot to consider when you have so many people involved. Children, and their hearts, and everybody in my family [and] his family, we all went through a lot together. So I think in a romantic way, when you fall in love so hard and so unexpectedly — and so late in your life — you think 'I want to marry you!' That's the first romantic reaction, like, 'Let's get married.' So we always talked about it, of course, and I think that as the years were going by, it didn't need to happen. There was a lot of healing to do."

Sandra Bullock (7/26/1964, Leo Dragon), Matthew McConaughey (11/4/1969, Scorpio Rooster) : The two actors dated after meeting on a movie set in 1996 and have remained close friends.
