Aries is a cardinal fire sign, its intense and dynamic energy inspiring our favorite Aries celebrities to get up and make their mark. An Aries is typically unafraid to dive headfirst, in the hope that it will lead to landscape-shifting magic. "Aries leads with blind optimism," says Allure, "barreling through life with an electric joie de vivre that perfectly complements their distinctive impulsivity."

These Aries celebs have blazed a trail of confidence, radiant positivity, and relentless determination to bring their art to life in a way that brightens the world for queer people. That passion and joyful determination has helped these creatives pave the way for so many other artists to shine and express their own queerness, making our lives more colorful in the process. We're especially proud to celebrate them this Aries season.

Lil Nas X


No one's doing it like Montero! Even saying he's got the trademark Aries ambition feels like an understatement for the groundbreaking, daring moves this pop star keeps delivering. From his monumental music videos to his vulnerable, catchy songs and gorgeous, provocative outfits (on stage and on the red carpet!), we love the way Lil Nas X has shifted the landscape. He's undeniably changed the industry for Black and queer artists – and he's only just begun!

Jasmin Savoy Brown


The "Yellowjackets" and "Scream" star's Aries energy shines through in the way she advocates for the movements and projects that matter to her. The stellar actor, singer, and producer was highly engaged in using her platform to signify support for the SAG strike, and has been loud and proudly cheering on her fellow queer castmates. With the 'light up a room the moment you walk in' qualities and warmth that Aries is known to radiate, Jasmin Savoy Brown is the epitome of an Aries celeb.

Luke Evans


The out British actor and entrepreneur champions his work on family dramas about queer parenting and his work shooting thirst traps for his clothing brand BDXY with equal passion, and for that we thank him. The "Our Son" star's successful multitasking and effortless charm reveals his natural Aries traits. We are always pleased to see where Evans' energetic, loving personality and frequently-shirtless body will take us next.

Pedro Pascal


This award-winning actor's curls and smile are mesmerizing in equal measure. Pedro Pascal consistently endears himself to us in his performances, and continues to captivate us with his generous, open spirit that shines in interviews. Aries is known for their inviting presence and genuinely kindness, both of which Pascal has in spades. We see it in the love that Pascal pours into his roles and relationship with his castmates, and the fierceness with which he supports his queer family and friends. We can't wait to see the "The Last of Us" star in the upcoming "Fantastic Four" reboot.

Kristen Stewart

This "Love Lies Bleeding" star is a queer icon. Kristen Stewart's audacious expression of her queerness while growing up in the spotlight has been a tremendous source of hope, thrilling cinema, and yes, queer thirst. An Aries is not interested in being tied to one thing, or having themselves represented by one aspect of their career; Stewart's filmography is a wonderful expression of that dynamic, 'try anything once, as long as it feels true to myself' energy. In an industry where queerness is often asked to fit into a specific, palatable box, Stewart's brazen quest to portray authentic queerness is a reflection of the Aries qualities that uniquely equip her to handle whatever obstacles come her way.

Hayley Kiyoko


Known to her fans as "Lesbian Jesus", Hayley Kiyoko is a cornerstone of sapphic pop. Her openly queer music has been the soundtrack to countless queer awakenings and first lesbian loves. An Aries' intrinsic belief in themselves and confidence in their versatility helps them shine as creatives, and Kiyoko radiates that in her work as a singer-songwriter, actor, music video director, and bestselling author.

Anitta


An Aries loves the limelight, harnessing the power of their charisma and talent for persuasion to win people over with their dazzling personality. Being the magnificent, outgoing, energetic Brazilian singer-songwriter and dancer that she is, Anitta has won awards and won over audiences globally. Anitta's Aries qualities are reflected in the way she proudly celebrates her hometown in her music videos, and lights up the stage with a sense of vibrant, authentic joy. Aries celebrities are spontaneous, always about to go on another adventure; Anyone who follows Anitta knows that is true of her exceptional music and her career as she continues to soar.

Jonathan Van Ness


When "Queer Eye" brought a rainbow whirlwind of queer talent into our lives and homes with its rebirth on Netflix, JVN quickly became a Fab-5 fave for us all. We love their sweet dose of accessible advice on bringing self-care into the daily routine of the show's heroes of the week, as much as we love their gorgeous curls. JVN's Aries spirit of versatility and creative adventures goes beyond their presence on the show, though. Their Aries nature shines through in their informative podcast, sustainable hair products, and stand-up comedy performances.

Elton John

When an Aries walks into a room, everyone notices. There's a sparkling, compelling quality to their presence –and an Aries knows exactly how to harness that power, commanding a room with ease. What could encapsulate that more than Elton John, who commands stadiums with his iconic music and extravagant performances. Aries celebrities are known for creating a specific look to build their stardom, carving out an image with their impact. No one better represents that influence than the Rocket Man.

Lady Gaga


In many respects, when it comes to harnessing the superstar-making power of pop music, Lady Gaga is the blueprint. This Aries queen blazed a fiery path on her way to making the world a more accepting, exciting space for her Little Monsters and beyond. Gaga has paved the rainbow road for artists to be bold, visionary, and imaginative when showcasing their talents. The genre-crossing singer and actor has reached new heights of stardom, and –between work on her makeup brand and Vegas shows –continues to be a strong voice in support of queer people and speaking out against hate.
