22 Aries Celebrities Who Set Our Hearts on Fire
Aries season has come in with a bang, and plenty of Aries celebrities born between March 21 and April 19 will be celebrating.
The fire sign is known for its passion and impulsive behavior. Ruled by Mars, Aries is the sign to leap before looking. Courage, honesty, confidence, and a taste for adventure are all textbook Aries traits. Like its fellow fire signs Leo and Sagittarius, Aries rarely wants to be tied down to one thing…or one person. They’re looking for dynamic and energetic experiences.
Aries is a cardinal sign, symbolizing the beginning of something powerful. An Aries will rarely enter a room unnoticed, and their fiery personality commands a crowd with ease. No wonder famous people who are Aries like Mariah Carey, Celine Dion, and Reba are able to captivate entire stadiums.
In the fast-paced world that famous people tend to occupy, Aries celebrities are uniquely equipped to handle it all. They can keep up with what the world throws at them, and they carve a unique persona along the way (hello, Lady Gaga). Aries celebrity aesthetics are one of a kind—just look at fellow rams Elton John and Lil Nas X.
Below, check out some of the Aries eminent personalities, and see what makes your favorite famous Aries so successful.

Sarah Jessica Parker (March 25, 1965)
Like other famous Aries women, Sarah Jessica Parker has ambition. Most recently, the actor was pulling double duty as executive producer of And Just Like That… while starring on the show.

Talk about a power couple!

Reba McEntire (March 28, 1955)
As if her fiery red hair wasn’t enough, Reba McEntire’s country music empire should speak for itself when it comes to the power of an Aries on a mission. The singer put out her 34th studio album in October 2021, and she won’t be stopping anytime soon.

Kourtney Kardashian (April 18, 1979)

Celine Dion (March 30, 1968)
The Canadian singer is an Aries whose songs continue to inspire us. (Just look at the resurgence of “It’s All Coming Back to Me Now” on TikTok!) Dion is the sixth all-time best-performing female artist in Billboard 200 history.

Lil Nas X (April 9, 1999)
Lil Nas X has been taking over the charts with hits like “Old Town Road,” “Industry Baby,” and “Montero (Call Me by Your Name).” Lil Nas X shows his Aries boldness in all of these as he refuses to shy away from any so-called controversy—instead he follows his heart with whatever he wants to do in his videos.
- Paul Bruinooge13/22
Emma Watson (April 15, 1990)
The Harry Potter alum helped a generation of overachievers feel represented on the big screen, and the actor herself is no different.

- Axelle/Bauer-Griffin14/22
Simu Liu (April 19, 1989)
Simu Liu is what you’d call an Aries rising celebrity. His recent performance in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings allowed the actor to become a household name and show off some of the more energetic parts of his acting. He’s not done with the MCU just yet, so hopefully we’ll get to see more of his enthusiastic attitude.

Keira Knightley (March 26, 1985)
