- Lana Del Rey
The Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter — born on the Gemini-Cancer cusp on June 21 — had her astrological chart misinterpreted for years. "I feel like I identify with Cancer qualities. I lived my life as a Gemini — it's insane — and then I found out I was four hours short," Del Rey said during a 2023 video interview with Harper's BAZAAR. Despite the astrological mix-up, she acknowledges many similarities between herself and the distinct traits of the cardinal sign.
- Meryl Streep
Of course, Meryl Streep is a Cancer! The Academy Award winner's birthday is on June 22. Think about all of those convincing performances she has given over the years — and that's due to her ability to empathize with each character she portrays. "I've thought a lot about the power of empathy. In my work, it's the current that connects me and my actual pulse to a fictional character in a made-up story," she said during her speech at The Center for Building a Culture of Empathy. "It allows me to feel pretend feelings and sorrows and imagined pain."
- Ariana Grande
Ariana Grande knows that Cancers can be a little "needy." In 2019, the singer — born on June 26 — wrote in a now-deleted post on X (formerly Twitter) in 2019: "oooof do cancers have the ability to do anything other than feeeeeeeeel feel feeeeeeeel feel feeeeeel feel." That sentiment still reigns true for Grande, who told Variety at the 2024 Met Gala that the first day on set of filming Wicked "was the most emotional day of my life." Never believe a Cancer when they say they have "No Tears Left to Cry."
- Jacob Elordi
Born on June 26, Jacob Elordi is not only able to channel that Cancer empathy into his roles in projects like Euphoria but also digs deep into his emotions when getting into character — especially when playing Elvis Presley in 2023's Priscilla. "I was at my hotel for months, so I'd covered every inch of the wall in photos of Elvis and Priscilla with the same thing in mind: 'If I can absorb all of this, I'm not even going to think about it. I'm just going to live in it.' " the Aussie Actor said in a 2023 interview for Variety's Actors on Actors series.
