Happy Cancer Season (20 June – 21 July) to all DIVAs who celebrate. Cancers are known for being sensitive, empathetic, quirky, intuitive and homebodies. People born under this water sign are well suited for a career in the entertainment industry. After all, they are commonly excellent communicators who are often geared with the skills to captivate an audience.
To celebrate Cancer Season, join us in spotlighting these LGBTQIA celebs, icons and allies who are all born under the sign. Do you share a birthday with any of them?
Aubrey Plaza (26 June)
Cancer is a sign that is ruled by the ever-changing moon. This is why many Cancers are hard to put in a box. This is certainly the case for this bisexual actor who fans adore for her deadpan humour and wit.
Margot Robbie (2 July)
This Barbie is… a total Cancer. I told you that people born under this zodiac sign are well suited for a thriving career in the entertainment industry.
Alexandra Shipp (16 July)
This is another Barbie star who belongs to the sign. In our 2023 interview, Alexandra told me about her time on set: “I’m such a Cancer, I started crying. It’s every child’s dream to actually have a Barbie Dreamhouse and [Greta] gave us all Barbie Dreamhouses.”
Chrishell Stause (21 July)
The actor, TV personality and real estate agent undeniably has many sides to her personality and lifestyle. She’s a total Cancer.
Leisha Hailey (11 July)
This L Word star is a total Cancer! Cancers put an emphasis on the “crying” part of the “fighting, fucking, crying, drinking” TLW theme song.
Megan Rapinoe (5 July)
This retired football pro is a total Cancer!
Sophia Bush (8 July)
Back in 2020, the One Tree Hill alum acknowledged Cancer season with an Instagram post. She used the moment to advocate for social change amid the Black Lives Matter movement.
Maya Hawke (8 July)
Are we surprised that this actor is a Cancer? Her latest role was playing Anxiety in Inside Out 2.
Mxmtoon (9 July)
Is it a surprise that the feelings are fatal singer is a total Cancer?
Sandra Oh (20 July)
The Killing Eve star once told W magazine that she’s a former astrology fan. She used to have a horoscope app but “then I took that off. I felt like it was just a distraction.”
Meryl Streep (22 June)
You have to have a high level of empathy to be able to take on the diverse roles that this iconic actor has wowed audiences with. She’s undeniably got range.
