Contrary to what Paris Hilton’s 2006 smash hit “Stars Are Blind” might suggest, the stars (astrologically speaking) see more than you’d think, especially regarding relationship compatibility. Yes, the key to a happy relationship is open and honest communication, regardless of your and your partner’s zodiac signs. But it’s also true that some astrological signs tend to mesh better than others. And when they do? Well, that relationship might look a little something like these astrologically compatible celebrity couples ahead.

Zendaya (Virgo) & Tom Holland (Gemini)

Oh, to be a fly on the wall during the conversations between these two. Mix an analytical, loyal Virgo like Zendaya with a chatty, relentlessly friendly Gemini like Tom Holland, and you get a lasting relationship with easy communication — and incredible jokes.

Jennifer Lopez (Leo) & Ben Affleck (Leo)

OK, listen, J.Lo and Ben might be over (again... for now), but the stars don’t lie. (Neither does a rumored post-divorce smooch, but that’s neither here nor there.) There’s something about these two Leos that keeps bringing them back to each other, perhaps the same fiery passion and confidence that likely drew them to each other in the first place.

Selena Gomez (Cancer) & Benny Blanco (Pisces)

Between ex Justin Bieber and current boyfriend Benny Blanco, Selena Gomez seems to gravitate toward fellow water sign Pisces, and it makes sense. Someone as sensitive and emotional as a Cancer feels safe with compassionate, intuitive Pisces. In a sense, these two signs just “get” each other on an incredibly deep level.

Blake Lively (Virgo) & Ryan Reynolds (Scorpio)

America’s favorite couple has some serious astrological compatibility behind them. Both Virgo and Scorpio are fiercely loyal signs, willing to do just about anything for the people they hold close. And with Lively’s easy Virgo banter and Reynolds’ razor-sharp Scorpio intellect, these two can keep each other laughing for days.

Barack (Leo) & Michelle Obama (Capricorn)

You don’t need the stars to tell you Barack and Michelle Obama are the human embodiment of true love, but they can help explain why. Both confident Leos and driven Capricorns understand the importance of hard work, and together, they complement each other. A Leo’s bold creativity can encourage a rule-following Capricorn to think outside the box, while Capricorn can help Leos achieve their big, lofty dreams realistically.

Kelsea Ballerini (Virgo) & Chase Stokes (Virgo)

One of Hollywood’s most recent it couples and two Virgos, Kelsea Ballerini and Chase Stokes’ compatibility should come as no surprise. These highly analytical, logical signs are committed to working toward their goals without hesitation, and when that goal is a happy relationship with each other, few things will stand in their way.

Margot Robbie (Cancer) & Tom Ackerley (Capricorn)

This Barbie is a nurturing, loving Cancer... and he’s just Tom. Jokes aside, Cancer and Capricorn might not seem like a perfect match on the surface; they are opposing signs, after all. But in some cases, opposites attract. Where Cancer learns to embrace stability from Capricorn’s steadfastness, Capricorn learns to go with the flow and get in touch with their emotional side.
