Sagittarius Rat and Sagittarius Dog

Taylor Swift (12/13/1989, Sagittarius Snake), Jake Gyllenhaal (12/19/1980, Sagittarius Monkey) : Singer/songwriter Swift and actor Gyllenhaal shared a brief romance in 2010 that, at the time and subsequently, has attracted significant attention. The relationship reportedly inspired much of Swift's multi-platinum album, Red (2012). In 2013, Swift described talking to Gyllenhaal later: "[Gyllenhaal] was like, ‘I just listened to the album, and that was a really bittersweet experience for me. It was like going through a photo album.’ That was nice. Nicer than, like, the ranting, crazy e-mails I got from this one dude. It’s a lot more mature way of looking at a love that was wonderful until it was terrible, and both people got hurt from it — but one of those people happened to be a songwriter. So what are you going to do? Did you not Wikipedia me before you called me up [for a date]?"

Chris Evert (12/21/1954, Sagittarius Horse), Billie Jean King (11/22/1943, Sagittarius Sheep) : The two legendary tennis players forged a strong friendship when they played on the professional circuit in the 1970s and 1980s. Evert has described how King defended her from bullying when she was a teenager. In 2023, Evert said: "It’s [King's] effect on women’s sports — not just women’s tennis. She’s probably the most driven person I’ve ever known in my life. Her vision was unbelievable when it came to women’s team sports. It was taboo 50 years ago to be a women’s athlete. It wasn’t admired. Now women can be proud to be an athlete and she changed that perception. I’ve remained very close to Billie Jean [and Martina (Navratilova)], more than anyone else who played then. We’ve always stayed in touch. I see (Billie) at all the Grand Slams. We have such a friendship where over the years we can finish each other's sentences. We all know what we’ve both been through."

Billy Connolly (11/24/1942, Sagittarius Horse), Pamela Stephenson (12/4/1949, Sagittarius Ox) : The legendary British comedian and psychologist have been married since 1989. They have three children. In her best-selling biography of Connolly, Billy (2002), Stephenson wrote: "For Billy, reading each chapter after completion has elicited the shock of self-confrontation, accompanied by by frequent laughter, occasional fury and a few precious tears as he painfully re-experienced many traumatic events. Most rewardingly for the author, the process of drawing together the following occurrences and providing insights might well have been a catalyst for his further healing, although Billy will have none of that: ‘Pish!’ He cries. ‘As my old granny Flora used to say, "The more you know, the less the better."'"

Tom Waits (12/7/1949, Sagittarius Ox), Keith Richards (12/18/1943, Sagittarius Sheep) : The two musicians formed an enduring friendship when they collaborated together on Waits' legendary albums, Rain Dogs (1985), and Bone Machine (1992). In 2015, Waits wrote a poem dedicated to Richards for Rolling Stone magazine. Waits described in 2021, "There’s nobody in the world like [Richards]. We wrote songs together for a while and that was fun [but] he doesn’t really remember anything or write anything down. So, you play for an hour and he would yell across the room, ‘Scribe!’ And I looked around. ‘Scribe? Who’s the scribe?’ And he’d say it again, now pointing at me. I was supposed to have written down everything we said and dreamt of and played. And I realised we needed an adult in the room. I’ve never been the one that one would consider the adult. It was an interesting dynamic."

Kenneth Branagh (12/10/1960, Sagittarius Rat), Judi Dench (12/9/1934, Sagittarius Dog) : The two British actors share a close friendship and have collaborated multiple times over 35 years, including on the films, Ghosts (1987), Henry V (1989), My Week with Marilyn (2011), Murder on the Orient Express (2017), All is True (2018), and Belfast (2021). As well as acting together, they have also directed one another in film and stage productions. In a joint 2022 interview, they shared this exchange: "[Branagh:] [Dench] has a very healthy, a very rigorous, and I would say savage, artistic judgment and artistic conscience. [Dench:] I certainly don’t believe ‘savage.’ [Branagh:] I mean ‘savage’ in terms of rigorous. [Dench:] Was I savage when I gave you notes for ‘Much Ado About Nothing’?...You wouldn’t stay for the notes! [Branagh:] We have had our run-ins about these kinds of things. I would say ‘savagery’ in terms of being an artistic Puritan. [Dench:] That is much nicer. [Branagh:] Well, it’s in the same world!"

42 Dugg (11/25/1994, Sagittarius Dog), Lil Baby (12/3/1994, Sagittarius Dog) : The two rappers share a close and collaborative friendship, having worked together on the songs, "We Paid" (2020), "Grace" (2020), and "U-Digg" (2022). 42 Dugg described in 2021, "Baby was my mans. I’m like, if I do anything, I want to include my mans. So that’s how it went...We just was freestyling...A lot of times, me and Baby will throw in some beats, and we’ll just start talking s— to each other. That’s how we made ‘We Paid.’...I didn’t even like the song. I didn’t like it because it was a different beat. So when I started rapping, I wasn’t that comfortable until he played it again. [Lil Baby] played it when we were shooting ‘Grace,’ and it went viral. Everybody in Detroit was like, ‘What the f— is this song?’ It ain’t even have no name. Then he named it ‘We Paid’ and said he’s going to put it on the [Lil Baby album, My Turn (Deluxe) (2020)]."

Katy Perry (10/25/1984, Scorpio Rat), Nicki Minaj (12/8/1982, Sagittarius Dog) : The singer and rapper are friends who collaborated on the song, "Swish Swish" (2017), and performed together at the 2010 VH1 Divas Salute the Troops concert ("Girls Just Wanna Have Fun"), and the 2017 MTV Video Music Awards. Minaj posted after the VMAs, "It was an honor to share the stage with my sister @katyperry last night. I love this little baby. She and I can go months w/o speaking or seeing each other but as soon as we link back up, it's nothing but genuine love & respect. I'm so proud of you Katy Kat."

Jean-Michel Basquiat (12/22/1960, Capricorn Rat), Madonna (8/16/1958, Leo Dog) : The pop music icon and celebrated artist shared a brief romantic relationship in the early 1980s. Madonna has described: "I remember getting up in the middle of the night and [Basquiat] wouldn’t be in bed lying next to me; he’d be standing, painting, at four in the morning, this close to the canvas, in a trance. I was blown away by that, that he worked when he felt moved." About their break-up, she has said: "He wouldn’t stop doing heroin. He was an amazing man and deeply talented, I loved him...When I broke up with him he made me give [the paintings he gave me] back to him. And then he painted over them black."

Courtney B Vance (3/12/1960, Pisces Rat), Angela Bassett (8/16/1958, Leo Dog) : The two actors first met in the 1980s when they were both studying at Yale University, then reconnected in the 1990s. They married in 1997 and have two children (twins). In 2020, Bassett described: "Staying together so long, whether in the industry or not, I think the important thing is that you gotta marry the right person. Make sure you're both looking in the same direction, basically. You're not clones of each other, but you have similar or closest similar belief systems and, you know, pleasant personalities. Because we all have strengths, strengths and weaknesses, and we want to support one another. But I think also recognizing that we are each individuals, we have our individual dreams and desires and hopes and ways of doing things."

David Fumero (12/29/1972, Capricorn Rat), Melissa Fumero (8/19/1982, Leo Dog) : The two actors met when they both appeared in the long-running soap opera, One Life to Live (1968-2012). They married in 2007, and have two children. Melissa Fumero described in 2020: "We've been married for a while, and it's not always rainbows and sunshine, but we really are best friends. [David] has endless energy and patience. I marvel at how long he can play with our 4-year-old. And he's a baby whisperer too. [8-month old] Axel will be crying, and David will swoop in, and the baby immediately starts laughing."

Ben Affleck (8/15/1972, Leo Rat), Matt Damon (10/8/1970, Libra Dog) : The two actors have been friends since childhood, sharing one of the highest profile "bromances" in the world. They have collaborated multiple times, including co-writing and co-starring in the film, Good Will Hunting (1997), and acting together in the films, Field of Dreams (1989, both uncredited), School Ties (1992), Chasing Amy (1997), Dogma (1999), Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (2001), Jay and Silent Bob Reboot (2019), and The Last Duel (2021). In 2007, Affleck described: "Before Matt, I was by myself. Acting was a solo activity where I'd just go off and do something, act in a little TV show or something, and no one understood it. None of the other kids knew what it was I did, how it worked, or anything. All of a sudden, I had this friend, Matt, and he gets it and wants to do it and thinks it's interesting and wants to talk about it. Soon both of us are doing it."

Eminem (10/17/1972, Libra Rat), Lil Wayne (9/27/1982, Libra Dog) : The two rappers are friends who have collaborated multiple times, including on the songs, "Drop the World" (2009), "Forever" (2009, with Drake and Kanye West), "No Love" (2010), and "If I Die Young" (2012). Interviewed by Wayne in 2020, Eminem said, "I never got a chance to tell you but, yo, ‘Mona Lisa,’ your two verses on that s—...gotta be one of the top five verses of all time...I love when rappers are able to tell a story and don’t compromise any of the punchlines. It’s great to see you and me still doing it." Wayne responded, "[T]hat right there alone, it shows the beauty of what we do, period." Wayne described in 2022, "I did a bunch of joints with Em, that’s ma man. When you get on that joint with Em it’s like a championship game, and you win it, and they ask you how does it feel. I came in with my game plan and I expected my game plan to work. When you send a song to Em you attack it like that, like Nah, yo not going to do me like this. Either we going be right here (level) with it, and we’re going to make a beautiful, wonderful great song, but you ain’t going do me that (above me). And that’s what we did. Can nobody say anybody got bodied. I just made sure that he didn’t body me, cause that boy is a monster."

Heidi Cruz (8/7/1972, Leo Rat), Ted Cruz (12/22/1970, Capricorn Dog) : The US politician and businesswoman have been married since 2001, and have two children. Heidi Cruz described in 2013: "Ted is very much a visionary. He is very strategic, and he’s very practical, and he does what needs to be done, not what everybody wants him to do...I want to make sure that everybody is comfortable. I want to make sure that everybody is talking to each other."
