What Leos are known for
Leo is the sign of presence: warmth, performance, pride in the work and loyalty to the people around it. Astrologers link it with being seen, which is why it turns up so often on stage. Leo is a fixed fire sign ruled by the Sun; the Sun is in Leo from about July 23 to August 22, and the exact day shifts by one from year to year. More on the sign itself is on the Leo page.
A shared Sun sign is a starting point and nothing more. Two Leos can have completely different Moons, rising signs and Venus placements, which is why Jennifer Lopez and Kylie Jenner do not read as the same person. The Sun sign is still the one piece of a chart that needs only a birthday, so it is the piece we can state for everyone below.
How this list was built
Birth dates come from Wikidata, the structured database behind Wikipedia. For every date we checked where the Sun actually was, using NASA's JPL Horizons positions, instead of trusting a printed date range. Anyone born on a day when the Sun changed sign is handled separately.
Born on the cusp: why some names are missing
The Sun does not change sign at midnight. On the day it moves, people born a few hours apart get different signs, and without a documented birth time nobody can say which. We leave those people off the list instead of guessing:
- Selena Gomez (July 22, 1992): the Sun moved from Cancer into Leo at 9:09 am local time that day. See Selena Gomez's chart for the detail.
- Kobe Bryant (August 23, 1978): the Sun moved from Leo into Virgo at 7:57 am local time that day.
If your own birthday falls on a boundary day, the birth chart calculator will place your Sun from your date and time.
Famous Leos: questions
Which celebrities are Leos?
Jennifer Lopez, Kylie Jenner, Dua Lipa, Shawn Mendes, Demi Lovato, Madonna, Jennifer Lawrence and Ben Affleck are all Leo Suns, along with the 33 other names in the table above. Every entry was checked against the Sun's real position on the birth date.
What are the Leo dates?
The Sun is in Leo from about July 23 to August 22. The start and end move by a day between years, so someone born on a boundary date needs their birth year, and sometimes their birth time, to know their sign.
Is Jennifer Lopez a Leo?
Yes. Jennifer Lopez was born on July 24, 1969, when the Sun was in Leo. The full chart is on Jennifer Lopez's page.
Is Kylie Jenner a Leo?
Yes. Kylie Jenner was born on August 10, 1997, when the Sun was in Leo. The full chart is on Kylie Jenner's page.
Does sharing a sign with a celebrity mean anything?
It means you share a Sun sign, which astrologers read as the core of a chart, and nothing beyond that. The Moon, rising sign and Venus differ from person to person. The tool on the celebrity charts page shows who shares your sign and your birthday; the birth chart calculator shows the rest of your own chart.
