Leo Tiger and Pisces Pig

Elaine Anderson Steinbeck (8/14/1914, Leo Tiger), John Steinbeck (2/27/1902, Pisces Tiger) : Celebrated author John Steinbeck and stage manager Elaine Steinbeck were married from 1950 until John's death in 1968. In a letter written shortly after they first met, John described: "I have the excited feeling of a storm. Something has changed of course—something I didn’t think ever could again and I am a little terrified but I surely would not have it any other way...Do you know, I am putting off ending this letter as though the end would be the end of something I want to hold on to."

Mila Kunis (8/14/1983, Leo Pig), Glenn Close (3/19/1947, Pisces Pig) : The two actors formed a close friendship when they co-starred together in the film, Four Good Days (2020). Close described: "I absolutely adore Mila. She’s really gifted, she leapt into this part, and for someone who is known for romantic comedy and for being so beautiful, she just really found a character very true to the character. From the very beginning we had great chemistry so she’s now a friend for life." Kunis said, "[Close is] just great to be around, energetically and otherwise, everything about her, her effortless nature, it’s infectious."

Fidel Castro (8/13/1926, Leo Tiger), Gabriel García Márquez (3/6/1927, Pisces Rabbit) : The Cuban leader Castro and author Garcia Marquez shared a close friendship from around 1977 until Marquez' death in 2014. Among many connections, Marquez was known to send advance copies of his manuscripts to Castro for fact-checking, as documented in the book, Fidel & Gabo: A Portrait of the Legendary Friendship Between Fidel Castro and Gabriel Garcia Marquez (2009), by Angel Esteban and Stephanie Panichelli. In 2006, Marquez described: "When [Castro] talks with people in the street, his conversation regains the expressiveness and crude frankness of genuine affection...This is the Fidel Castro that I believe I know. A man of austere habits and insatiable illusions, with an old-fashioned formal education of cautious words and subdued tones, and incapable of conceiving any idea that is not colossal."

Pat Metheny (8/12/1954, Leo Horse), Ornette Coleman (3/9/1930, Pisces Horse) : The two celebrated jazz musicians—Coleman a saxophonist and Metheny a guitarist—joined together to record the album, Song X (1986). Metheny described later: "The weeks leading up to the making of [Song X] were really intense, and unbelievably inspiring. In our first meeting, we agreed that we should try to do something that was unlike anything that might be expected of either of us – and that we should try to develop a language and a way of playing together that was particular to this project...In addition to being one of the giants of modern music, Ornette is one of the most gentle and soulful human beings on the face of the earth. His humor, so evident in his music, informs all aspects of his off-the-bandstand behavior as well – his music being literally a perfect reflection of the man inside. And his in humility, in the face of his overwhelming accomplishments and abilities, we find a reserve of personal wisdom that matches his gift as a musician."

Kay Cannon (8/22/1974, Leo Tiger), Camila Cabello (3/3/1997, Pisces Ox) : The director Cannon collaborated with Cabello on the movie musical, Cinderella (2021). Cannon described: "Well, it was amazing working with [Cabello]. I mean, really, truly. I felt like we were a perfect match. I think we both had a lot at stake. It was her first time acting. And then her first time acting, she's playing Cinderella, this iconic character. And it's a big movie for me, too. I had never directed a musical. So we really connected and we really trusted each other. We have very similar senses of humor, and I think what she brings to the table is this rawness. She's a really hard worker. She's very smart, so she sees the world through these young eyes, but they're informed young eyes, where she's always trying to learn."

Joe Jonas (8/15/1989, Leo Snake), Sophie Turner (2/21/1996, Pisces Rat) : The singer/songwriter/actor Jonas and actor Turner began dating in 2016, and married in 2019. They have two children. Turner described about their first meeting: "I remember the two of us spending only a couple of minutes on the dance floor, and then we just found a space far in the corner and we just talked. We talked for hours, and hours, and hours. And I was, like, not bored. It wasn't contrived. It wasn't small talk — it was just so easy. And soon we were, like, inseparable. I went on tour with him."

Bernie Taupin (5/22/1950, Gemini Tiger), Elton John (3/25/1947, Aries Pig) : Acclaimed singer/songwriter Elton and lyricist Taupin have shared a 50-year songwriting collaboration that is one of the most successful partnerships of all time. Taupin described in 2019: "When we started it out it was really just me and him...I’d like to think I’ve been someone who can’t be ruffled by the insanity of [Elton's] career—and that I’ve always been there as the soft pillow to fall on in times of need...If we’ve weathered the storm now for over 50 years and have been able to maintain this extraordinary bond with each other, I don’t think there’s anything on god’s green earth that could separate us now."

Stephanie Allynne (9/19/1986, Virgo Tiger), Tig Notaro (3/24/1971, Aries Pig) : Comedian Notaro and actor Allynne married in 2015. They have two children, twins born in 2016. Allynne described in 2015: "I had not dated women before, and I think when we first started spending time with each other, I was so into Tig and I was falling in love with her and I didn't know how to identify it because I thought I was straight. I kept gravitating toward her and wanting to spend time with her, and then in the process of recognizing that in myself, I was like, 'Oh my god, I am fully in love with this person.' It kind of blew my mind in terms of sexual orientation, where you're like, 'I'm this way, and it's black-and-white.' I look back and go, 'God, I closed the door that I had no idea what was behind it.'"

Bill Murray (9/21/1950, Virgo Tiger), Sofia Coppola (5/14/1971, Taurus Pig) : The director and actor have collaborated multiple times, including the films, Lost in Translation (2003)—for which they both received Academy Award nominations—A Very Murray Christmas (2015), and On the Rocks (2020). Speaking about Lost in Translation, Coppola described: "It was about when you have a connection with someone. You never know. When you encounter someone you can instantly be hit by a look or a sense of humor. It was something that’s romantic without a sexual or real relationship. It does not mean he could actually be with you, but you could still have something of that bittersweet aspect. It’s the best way to connect with someone...[Murray's] so smart. He got what that character was looking for. We didn’t talk about it. He showed up and knew the tone of it. He found it as we went. He just got it. I feel a connection with him, in that he understands what I’m trying to do."

John Slattery (8/13/1962, Leo Tiger), Talia Balsam (3/5/1959, Pisces Pig) : The two actors have been married since 1998, and have one child. They played husband and wife, Roger and Mona Sterling, in the series, Mad Men (2007-2015), and also appeared together in the film, Return (2011). Slattery described in 2019, "I just found the right person, you know, I lucked out. I guess marry someone you like. We get along well, we always have, and I guess being in show business, some people say it’s difficult. I don’t know. We understand the rhythms of this life, which aren’t easy sometimes and there’s insecurity. You’re not sure where you’re going to be. So I don’t know. I got lucky."

Emilia Clarke (10/23/1986, Scorpio Tiger), Emma Thompson (4/15/1959, Aries Pig) : The two actors formed a close friendship when they collaborated on the film, Last Christmas (2019), which was co-written by Thompson. Clarke described: "I remember just looking at [Thompson] and being like, 'Just let me know if I mess it up.' She was like, 'What!' Gets me in this huge hug, and is like, 'I’ll do nothing of the sort. You’re going to be fine.' That was the dynamic from there on out. She just supported us in [this] magical way. I hadn’t met her before [the film] but I had been pretty obsessed with her my whole life. When I met her, she exceeded all of my expectations...I’ve had the good fortune of going to visit her and [her husband] Greg’s house in Scotland. They love a good sauna. You jump into their stream, you get freezing cold, and then you jump back in the sauna, and then get back in the stream. It was me, Emma, and Greg in the nude in a sauna, jumping back and forth and shrieking…it was a dream."

Jeff Garlin (6/5/1962, Gemini Tiger), Larry David (7/2/1947, Cancer Pig) : The two comedians have famously become close friends through their collaboration on the show, Curb Your Enthusiasm (2000-present). Garlin described in 2011: "We discovered our connection during the audition process for the initial Curb special, and it felt instantly like we'd worked together our entire lives. I don't know why we have this relationship, but we do. Maybe we were slaves together in an earlier life. And in Curb Your Enthusiasm we were doing what we did and not having a clue whether people would get it or like it. The fact that it's gone on to be a big success, I am shocked. Because it truly was something that was organic, that we did to make ourselves laugh."

Tony Bennett (8/3/1926, Leo Tiger), Amy Winehouse (9/14/1983, Virgo Pig) : The two singers collaborated on the song, "Body and Soul", from Bennett's Grammy-winning album, Duets II (2011). The song was Bennett's first entry on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart for 45 years, and proved to be Winehouse's last recording. In Bennett's autobiography, Just Getting Started (2016), he wrote: "Should I have told [Winehouse] that I'd contended a little bit with [drugs and alcohol] myself and knew how you can fall into a bad cycle, but I also knew that you could bring yourself back? Would it have made a difference if someone she considered an idol had said to her something like, 'You're my idol. You are a once-in-a-lifetime talent. Please don't take that from the world.' [Maybe I should have said: ] Walk away from it all, if you like. Just live. Please."
