Gemini Dragon and Pisces Rabbit

Dean Martin (6/7/1917, Gemini Snake), Jerry Lewis (3/16/1926, Pisces Tiger) : As "Martin and Lewis", actor/singer Martin and actor/comedian Lewis formed one of the most popular US comedy duos of all time, making 16 films between 1946 and 1956. They were famously estranged for 20 years after their break-up, but reconciled later in life. Describing the comic-mayhem-versus-straight-man motif at the heart of their act, Lewis wrote in the autobiographical, Dean and Me: A Love Story (2005), "One time I’d gone so far that Dean and I found ourselves literally standing nose to nose, with maybe an eighth of an inch of air between us. And he said, with genuine anger in his voice, ‘I have finally come to the point in our relationship where I am going to have to tell you, if you do that again, it’s over. Do you understand that? O-V-U-R!’ I planted my mouth on his, gave him a big kiss, and said, ‘I understand perfectly.’ Now, I have to tell you, the first time I ever did that, Dean had absolutely no idea it was coming!...The act might have looked like chaos, but we could always get back to where we needed to get on a moment’s notice...Either Dean and I, together, would save us, or Dean would save me, or I would save him. It was a brilliant concept."

Spike Lee (3/20/1957, Pisces Rooster), Danny Aiello (6/20/1933, Gemini Rooster) : The actor and director/actor famously collaborated on Lee's acclaimed film, Do the Right Thing (1989). Speaking at Aiello's memorial service in 2019, Lee said: "I am honored to be here. Danny and I have been connected forever. Danny was kind of reluctant [to be involved in Do the Right Thing]. You know, we had different backgrounds … he was Catholic, he was raised in Manhattan. I’m Brooklyn. He was reluctant, so I took him to a Knick game. Then I took him to Yankees stadium the house that Ruth built...He said, ‘I’ll do your film.’ ...[Over the next 30 years] [w]e recognized our differences, political or whatever else you want to talk about it but we truly loved each other...I’m just blessed to have known Danny and the great Aiello family."

Normani (5/31/1996, Gemini Rat), Camila Cabello (3/3/1997, Pisces Ox) : As two members of the group, Fifth Harmony, singers Normani and Cabello shared a close and collaborative friendship from 2012 to 2016. At one time, Normani posted to Cabello: "I love you to pieces & I'm so grateful to have gained a sister like you. I've learned so much about life in general and about myself through things that you have taught me. You've taught me to look at certain things or situations from a different perspective. I haven't always been confident in myself and would always over analyze things that I would do or say but you told me anytime I feel that way just say 'WHAT EVERRRRR' lol as simple as that is it works ! ... i love you always even when we argue over stupid things like who took longer in the shower lol yo mama and papa did a heck of a great job with ya 👏 I LOVE YOUUUUUU CUHHHHHHHH😘🎈🍟💃🎀🎂." In 2020, after racist social media posts by Cabello emerged from years earlier, Normani said, "It was devastating that this came from a place that was supposed to be a safe haven and a sisterhood...It took days for [Cabello] to acknowledge what I was dealing with online and then years for her to take responsibility for the offensive tweets that recently resurfaced. Whether or not it was her intention, this made me feel like I was second to the relationship that she had with her fans. I really hope that an important lesson was learned in this."

Laurie Anderson (6/5/1947, Gemini Pig), Lou Reed (3/2/1942, Pisces Horse) : Musician Reed and artist/musician/film-maker Anderson were partners for 21 years, and married in 2008. Anderson described in 2013: "Lou and I played music together, became best friends and then soul mates, traveled, listened to and criticized each other’s work, studied things together (butterfly hunting, meditation, kayaking). We made up ridiculous jokes; stopped smoking 20 times; fought; learned to hold our breath underwater; went to Africa; sang opera in elevators; made friends with unlikely people; followed each other on tour when we could; got a sweet piano-playing dog; shared a house that was separate from our own places; protected and loved each other...Like many couples, we each constructed ways to be – strategies, and sometimes compromises, that would enable us to be part of a pair. Sometimes we lost a bit more than we were able to give, or gave up way too much, or felt abandoned. Sometimes we got really angry. But even when I was mad, I was never bored. We learned to forgive each other. And somehow, for 21 years, we tangled our minds and hearts together."

Carrie Underwood (3/10/1983, Pisces Pig), Mike Fisher (6/5/1980, Gemini Monkey) : Singer Underwood and former professional NHL hockey player Fisher have been married since 2010. They have two children. Speaking on the first episode of the couple's digital series, Mike + Carrie: God & Country (2020-2021), Fisher described, "We learn from each other and have spirited discussions about things that we disagree on, but at the end of the day, we love each other very much." On another episode, he said, "We're not perfect. We don't have a perfect marriage. But we have that one thing in our faith. ... It's a center ground that’s the most important thing around everything."

Mikhail Khodorkovsky (6/26/1963, Cancer Rabbit), Vladimir Putin (10/7/1952, Libra Dragon) : The exiled businessman, once reputedly the richest individual in Russia, has had one of the most famous political feuds in history with the Russian President. Commentator Masha Gessen wrote in 2012, "At the root of the conflict between Putin and Khodorkovsky lies a basic difference in character. Putin rarely says what he means and even less frequently trusts that others are saying what they mean. Khodorkovsky, in contrast, seems to have always taken himself and others at face value."

50 Cent (7/6/1975, Cancer Rabbit), Ja Rule (2/29/1976, Pisces Dragon) : A feud between the two rappers has been described as one of the longest-running in Hip-Hop history. In 2018, 50 Cent claimed to have bought the first 200 tickets at a Ja Rule concert, so there would be empty seats in the front row.

Beverly D'Angelo (11/15/1951, Scorpio Rabbit), Al Pacino (4/25/1940, Taurus Dragon) : The two actors were in a relationship from the late 1990s until 2003, and D'Angelo gave birth to twins in 2001. D'Angelo described: "I got pregnant at 48, delivered six weeks after I was 49, and by 51, I was looking at a landscape as a single parent." An acrimonious custody dispute followed. More recently, however, D'Angelo has said positively: "You have to accept differences and all the things that led to a break-up in a way that allows you to move forward. And out of my support system and people I know and love, I’ve created [in Pacino] the ideal (parenting) partner."

Quentin Tarantino (3/27/1963, Aries Rabbit), Harvey Weinstein (3/19/1952, Pisces Dragon) : The director and producer were longtime collaborators before Weinstein's imprisonment as a sex offender. In the wake of the allegations against Weinstein, Tarantino said: "There was more to it than just the normal rumors, the normal gossip. It wasn’t secondhand. I knew he did a couple of these things. I wish I had taken responsibility for what I heard. If I had done the work I should have done then, I would have had to not work with him."

Sarah Palin (2/11/1964, Aquarius Rabbit), Todd Palin (9/6/1964, Virgo Dragon) : The US politician (including 2008 Republican nominee for Vice President) and oil field production operator were married for 30 years until 2020 and had five children together. Despite years of tabloid speculation, the marriage appeared strong until Todd Palin reportedly filed for divorce on his 55th birthday in 2019, citing "incompatibility of temperament". Sarah Palin learnt of the divorce filing in an email she received a week after their 31st wedding anniversary. She later described: "It's not easy to talk about. It was devastating. I thought I got shot."

Johnny Depp (6/9/1963, Gemini Rabbit), Sherilyn Fenn (2/1/1965, Aquarius Dragon) : The two actors dated for two and a half years before either found fame. Fenn has indicated on Instagram that she thinks fondly of her relationship with Depp, but the two do not keep in contact: "Simply the very first love of my life...After so many years it would be fun to talk. Yet, memories are enough as well."

George Orwell (6/25/1903, Cancer Rabbit), Graham Greene (10/2/1904, Libra Dragon) : The two authors were contemporaries writing in postwar Britain. Orwell's review of Greene's novel The Heart of the Matter has become an archetype of scathing criticism. Orwell writes, "I have not parodied the plot of the book. Even when dressed up in realistic details, it is just as ridiculous as I have indicated..."
