Billy Crudup (7/8/1968, Cancer Monkey), Naomi Watts (9/28/1968, Libra Monkey) : The actors became a couple around 2017 and appeared together on the red carpet at the SAG Awards in February 2022. Both have children from previous relationships. In an Instagram post after the Emmy awards, Watts said simply: "What a night... What a dress... What a gent... ❤️✨"

Willem Dafoe (7/22/1955, Cancer Sheep), Giada Colagrande (10/16/1975, Libra Rabbit) : The actor and film-maker have been married since 2005. "I met [Colagrande] on the street in Rome in 2004. I knew of her because I'd seen her films and we had some mutual friends. Getting married was very impulsive and romantic. We were having lunch and I said: 'Do you want to get married tomorrow?' I called up City Hall and they said: 'If you get here in the next couple of hours, you can register and then you can get married tomorrow.' So we ran down there."

Megan Rapinoe (7/5/1985, Cancer Ox), Sue Bird (10/16/1980, Libra Monkey) : The basketball and soccer players have been a couple since 2017. Individually and together, they have been credited with "[B]oundary-obliterating levels of achievement on and off the field." Speaking about their lives together after they retire from professional sports, Rapinoe described: "I’m excited. Because there’s like [miming separate boxes with her hands] Megan, and Sue. And then there’s Megan and Sue. And I think that there’s so much to be done in all of those three buckets...I hope [our legacy is that] people see it doesn’t have to be this slog where you’re just a selfless servant. You can have fun, you can be successful. You can do it your own way."

Courtney Love (7/9/1964, Cancer Dragon), Carrie Fisher (10/21/1956, Libra Monkey) : The actor and musician/actor shared a strong friendship after they met at the Oscars ceremony in 1997. In the Foreword to Love's book, Dirty Blonde: The Diaries of Courtney Love, Fisher wrote: "There’s a saying: 'Some of us can’t find heaven without backing away from hell.' Well, it seems to me that that’s been part of Courtney Love’s experience—not that she’s found heaven, but I’m sure she has seen glimpses of the place. How could she not, with all her experience fighting her demons?…After all is said and done—whenever that is—she is a survivor. Unfortunately, the only thing wrong with being a survivor is you have to keep getting in trouble to show off your gift. Getting in trouble and then getting out again, bearing gifts."

Jaden Smith (7/8/1998, Cancer Tiger), Will Smith (9/25/1968, Libra Monkey) : The father and son actors have appeared together on screen several times. Will Smith's memoir, Will, described: "After Earth was an abysmal box office and critical failure, and what was worse was that Jaden took the hit. Fans and the press were absolutely vicious; they said and printed things about Jaden that I refuse to repeat. Jaden had faithfully done everything that I'd instructed him to do, and I had coached him. We never discussed it, but I know he felt betrayed. He felt misled, and he lost his trust in my leadership. At fifteen years old, when Jaden asked about being an emancipated minor, my heart shattered. He ultimately decided against it, but it sucks to feel like you've hurt your kids."

Paul Schrader (7/22/1946, Cancer Dog), Mary Beth Hurt (9/26/1946, Libra Dog) : The director and actor have been married since 1983 and have two children together. They have rarely spoken in public about their relationship, but in 1989, Mary Beth Hurt said simply, "I have everything I want, everything I need. And more. Paul and the kids are the best thing that ever happened to me."

Mike Tyson (6/30/1966, Cancer Horse), Evander Holyfield (10/19/1962, Libra Tiger) : The two former world champion boxers fought for the WBA heavyweight title in 1996, with Tyson infamously biting Holyfield's ear. Years later they reconciled, with both speaking warmly about the other. Tyson said, "We're both at a stage in our lives where we can work together and make really a good thing happen. He's a beautiful person. I've known Evander since I was 15." Holyfield commented, "He appreciates that I forgave him. He's forgiven himself. That's how you make adjustments in life."

Cheryl Cole (6/30/1983, Cancer Pig), Simon Cowell (10/7/1959, Libra Pig) : The two media personalities were both judges on The X Factor in the UK. They had a public falling out when Cole was dropped from the US version of the show after one episode, then reconciled and appeared together again in the UK edition. Often described as "frenemies", Cole described one exchange as follows: "[Cowell] said the same thing to my face about me manipulating him. I said: 'Simon, seriously – you've become so cynical that you think people manipulate you, but I'm not one of those people. Maybe what confuses you is that I don't play with you; you can't buy me.' And he said to me: 'When I say you manipulate, I mean it in the sincerest form of a compliment. Meaning: you're highly intelligent, and I don't even think you know you're doing it.'"

Jennifer Garner (4/17/1972, Aries Rat), Judy Greer (7/20/1975, Cancer Rabbit) : The two actors appeared together in 13 going on 30 in 2004 and have continued a strong friendship. Greer made a speech when Garner was awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and Garner starred in Greer's directorial debut, A Happening of Monumental Proportions. Greer has described: "It's really important that you give your friendships some attention. It's important when you love someone to give that relationship attention. Sometimes you're going to talk a lot and sometimes you're not going to talk much and that has to be OK. I always feel like with [Garner], it's always very easy with her. We can talk a lot or we can go a long time without talking. It's always really easy. And she's just like that."

Josh Duhamel (11/14/1972, Scorpio Rat), Fergie (3/27/1975, Aries Rabbit) : The singer and model/actor became a couple in 2007. They were married from 2009 to 2019 and had one child together. In 2012, speaking on Oprah about tabloid rumors during their marriage, Fergie described how the couple attended "a lot of therapy": "When you go through difficult times, it really makes you stronger as a unit. Our love today is a deeper love." Duchamel added: "I'm actually happy that all that happened because we wouldn't be as strong as we are now; we wouldn't be as happy as we are now. In a lot of ways it made me straighten my ass out."

Gwyneth Paltrow (9/27/1972, Libra Rat), Brad Pitt (12/18/1963, Sagittarius Rabbit) : The two actors were one of the world's highest profile couples when they dated between 1994 and 1997. Paltrow later recounted how Pitt confronted Harvey Weinstein after the infamous producer made an unwelcome advance towards her. "It was like the equivalent of [Pitt] throwing [Weinstein] against the wall...It was so fantastic because what he did was, he leveraged his fame and power to protect me at a time when I didn’t have fame or power yet...Harvey was never inappropriate with me again. Ever."

Stuart Townsend (12/15/1972, Sagittarius Rat), Charlize Theron (8/7/1975, Leo Rabbit) : The two actors were a couple for nine years, with each describing their relationship as akin to marriage, and surprised many observers when they split in 2010. During their time together, Theron described: "I've been in love before. But have I ever been with somebody who I really, truly felt had my back and was my best friend? No, not until Stuart." After their split, she described trying to mend the relationship: "It was sinking, and I had to give it a fight. I really wanted to try and make it work. That was the priority. I wouldn't do it any different way." Townsend said in 2013: "We had a great time, we had a great adventure, that's all I can say."

50 Cent (7/6/1975, Cancer Rabbit), Eminem (10/17/1972, Libra Rat) : The two rappers are among the most famous hip-hop artists of all time. They have long been collaborators and friends, since Eminem signed 50 Cent after hearing his Guess Who's Back mixtape in 2002. In 2014, 50 Cent described: "Hip Hop is Black music, without question, and, unfortunately for some people, it's tough to accept that you have a White artist that does it better than Black artists. It is what it is. You can get like whoever you think is the best Black artist and stand them face-to-face in a room with Em, and he will eat that [guy] alive."

Billy Crystal (3/14/1948, Pisces Rat), Robin Williams (7/21/1951, Cancer Rabbit) : The two comedians/actors were friends from their youth in the 1970s until Williams' death in 2014. Crystal has described: "[Williams was a] lonely kid, a kid on his own a lot, inventing characters, inventing whole worlds and as he grew, it got more complete and easier for him to get to...[Williams' depression is] really stuff I don't talk about. Incredibly difficult times. You know, friends trusting each other with the darkest of secrets that I'll keep that way...[During interviews] [h]e always looked to me to bring him back to earth and I could take him in a different direction and it took me a while to figure out how to counter-punch and score my own points, you know… it was a privilege to trade blows with him."
