Compatibility
Taurus Monkey and Virgo Snake

Jerry Seinfeld (4/29/1954, Taurus Horse), Jessica Seinfeld (9/12/1971, Virgo Pig) : After a somewhat unconventional beginning to their relationship, the Seinfelds have been married for over 20 years and have three children together. Jerry Seinfeld has described Jessica's best attribute as: "Very funny. Very funny. From the day I met her, that was really our connection. We always have fun and we laugh and she’s got a great sense of humor. She’s very quick and sarcastic and all the qualities that I like. She’s very sharp. She catches all the wrongness."

Dwayne Johnson (5/2/1972, Taurus Rat), Lauren Hashian (9/8/1984, Virgo Rat) : The actor and singer have been a couple since 2007 and married in 2019. They have two children together. In 2015, Johnson said, "We do these stories and we talk so much about the business end, the success end, but then Lauren isn’t mentioned and my daughter isn’t mentioned. I always like making sure we find the balance and my home life is in there and Lauren Hashian is in there and my daughter is in there."

Cindy McCain (5/20/1954, Taurus Horse), John McCain (8/29/1936, Virgo Rat) : The politician and diplomat/businesswoman were married from 1980 until his death in 2018, and had seven children. Cindy McCain described: "It had its moments where it was stressful, and it had its moments where it was a hell of a lot of fun. As I look back on it, it was a lot more fun than it was heartache by any stretch. In any marriage, especially a political marriage, I think humor is a great equalizer. And that's how we were...John was a very funny guy and then, as it turned out, I found out I was kind of funny, too."

Barbra Streisand (4/24/1942, Taurus Horse), Elliott Gould (8/29/1938, Virgo Tiger) : The singer and actor were one of the most famous couples of the 1960s until their divorce in 1971. Gould recounted in 2020, "Barbra asked me at one point...'Why did we grow apart?'...And I said my question would be, 'How could we have grown apart?' And the answer to that is that we didn’t grow together and the reason for that was because she became more important than us...Then I also said to her, 'We did great. We made it very fast and nobody has what we have. There’s you and me and our kid."

Tina Fey (5/18/1970, Taurus Dog), Amy Poehler (9/16/1971, Virgo Pig) : The two comedians/actors have been close friends and colleagues for 30 years. Their memorable collaborations have included four memorable turns co-hosting the Golden Globe awards together. Speaking in 2012, Poehler said: "Sometimes Tina is like a very talented bungee-jumping expert. All it takes is Tina to softly say, 'We can do this, right?' and I suddenly feel like I can jump off a bridge."

Don Rickles (5/8/1926, Taurus Tiger), Bob Newhart (9/5/1929, Virgo Snake) : The two legendary comedians were close friends. Rickles explained: "We're apples and oranges. I'm a Jew, he's a Catholic. He's low-key, I'm a yeller. But we share the same values, marriage, children and grandchildren. We've traveled all over the world together with our wives, and in all that time we've never had a serious argument. So many things happen, there's so much sadness. But we can laugh together."

June Carter (6/23/1929, Cancer Snake), Johnny Cash (2/26/1932, Pisces Monkey) : After a difficult courtship—both were religious and married to other people when they met—these two legendary country music stars were married from 1968 until 2003. They collaborated extensively, including on the albums, Carryin' On With Johnny Cash & June Carter (1967), Johnny Cash and His Woman (1973), Return to the Promised Land (2000), and Duets (2006). According to one biographer, Cash's first words on meeting Carter were, "Hello, I'm Johnny Cash and I'm going to marry you someday."

Paul Simon (10/13/1941, Libra Snake), Carrie Fisher (10/21/1956, Libra Monkey) : The actor and musician were in an intimate relationship for 12 years, off and on, including a short-lived marriage. Fisher wrote in her memoir, Wishful Drinking: "Paul and I dated for six years, married for two, divorced for one, and then we had good memories of each other so what do you think we did? ... We dated again."

Tom Brady (8/3/1977, Leo Snake), Gisele Bündchen (7/20/1980, Cancer Monkey) : The model and NFL legend meet in 2006 were married from 2009 to 20022. They have two children, and Bündchen is stepmother to Brady's child from a previous relationship (with Bridget Moynahan). Bündchen described early in their relationship: "You know that feeling of, like, you can’t get enough? From the first day we met, we’ve never spent one day without speaking to each other." Their break-up followed Brady's decision to return to playing NFL football only six weeks after announcing his retirement in February 2022. Shortly before their separation was announced, Bündchen described: "Obviously, I have my concerns—this is a very violent sport, and I have my children and I would like [Brady] to be more present. I have definitely had those conversations with him over and over again."

René Angélil (1/16/1942, Capricorn Snake), Celine Dion (3/30/1968, Aries Monkey) : The music producer and singer first met when Angélil heard a demo Dion recorded as a 12-year old. As well as business partners, the pair were married from 1994 until his death in 2016, and had twins together. Dion said in 2013, "We laugh. We joke. We kid each other. We want our marriage to last forever. Talk over everything and you’ll find you are still on the honeymoon. Communication — it’s the most important. It’s the secret."

Taylor Swift (12/13/1989, Sagittarius Snake), Selena Gomez (7/22/1992, Cancer Monkey) : The superstar musician and singer/actor have been close friends since 2008. Swift described in a joint interview: "There has always been this quality of sisterhood, and I don't say that in a basic way. I knew from when I met [Gomez] I would always have her back. In my life, I have the ability to forgive people who have hurt me. But I don't know if I can forgive someone who hurts her." Gomez added: "There's so much of my friendship with Taylor that people don't know about because we don't necessarily feel the need to post about everything we do. She has showed up for me in ways that I would have never expected. Flown in because I was hurt and was going through something. Stuff that was going on with my family. It's been proven year after year and in every moment of my life that she is one of my best friends in the world. We don't agree on everything, but we respect each other with everything."

Robin Dearden (12/4/1953, Sagittarius Snake), Bryan Cranston (3/7/1956, Pisces Monkey) : The two actors have been married since 1989. A year after Cranston held Dearden at gunpoint in an episode of Airwolf, they met up again and spontaneously shared a lingering kiss. Cranston has recounted, "We were both like, 'Wait that was too long, wasn’t it?'...And that is really what happened."

Dizzy Gillespie (10/21/1917, Libra Snake), Charlie Parker (8/29/1920, Virgo Monkey) : The two jazz legends collaborated extensively during the 1940s, becoming pivotal contributors to the development of bebop and modern jazz. Gillespie's memoir, To Be or Not to Bop (1985) described: "[Charlie 'Yardbird' Parker] made a gigantic contribution, which really added a new dimension to the music. It’s hard to describe it exactly, he contributed so many different elements...'Bird' has some notes in his melodies, the lines that he wrote, that are deep, deep notes, as deep as anything Beethoven ever wrote. And he had little things that he used to play inside. He’d play other tunes inside the chords of the original melody, and they were always right...Charlie Parker was something else."

Björk (11/21/1965, Scorpio Snake), Thom Yorke (10/7/1968, Libra Monkey) : The two musicians collaborated on the track "I’ve Seen It All" (with Sjón and Lars von Trier) from the soundtrack for Dancer in the Dark (2000). Bjork described at the time: "I respect [Yorke] very much. He’s very shy and uncertain and doesn’t [reveal] too much of himself. That’s why it’s quite hard for me to explain what he’s like. I can’t do him justice. But he’s a very special person. When he enters a room he affects the whole atmosphere in a very positive way...His work is based on communication and understanding. He’s very down-to-earth and not egocentric at all. We worked together for three or four days, which I’m very grateful about. We worked together with songs, which I had worked on during three years not knowing what to do with them. Thanks to him these songs saw a new light of day and that was a wonderful experience." In 2006, Yorke said Bjork's "Unravel" was, "[O]ne of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard."
