Virgos are the perfectionist of the zodiac. Much like their sister sign, Capricorns, Virgos are hardworking and critical. They approach their goals with the utmost sharpness and take any responsibility very seriously. The aforementioned sign thrives on achieving things a slow and steady way and will dedicate their time to doing things properly. Virgos go the extra mile and we can find much inspiration in their natural drive and discipline.
It is always intriguing to see the different ways Virgo-borns motion in the world. And much like all signs of the zodiac, some individuals born under this sign are more in-line with its innate characteristics than others. To further explore this, let us take a look at five Virgo celebrities who are totally like their sign and five who are not so much.
10 Not So Virgo: Adam Sandler
Virgos are known to be sharp individuals and although Adam Sandler does match some of the characteristics related to the sign, as seen in his wit and creative abilities, he still is not a true Virgo.
The actor evidently has an easy-going approach about life and something about Adam Sandler's aura does not reflect the Virgo's intense criticality and conservative ways. The actor is far too chill and that is why he thrives in roles wherein he must emulate the same energy.
9 Totally Virgo: Idris Elba
Idris Elba's name rings in the industry with power and intent due to his charismatic approach to his career. The suave actor is known for delivering exceptional performances on screen and being sharp with every move he makes offscreen. Indeed, you will rarely catch Idris Elba doing the wrong thing and such composure is what makes him a veritable Virgo. He is also hardworking and pours himself into every role, both qualities noticed in the typical Virgo archetype.
8 Not So Virgo: Amy Winehouse
Amy Winehouse was a talented singer who marked the music industry in numerous ways. Her melancholic voice and creative excellence do ring true of the Virgo archetype. However, it is her emotional depth that distances her from the colder-hearted Virgo-born. Most Virgos are extremely hard to read and very rarely let others in on their emotions. Amy Winehouse was just the opposite as she was pure and transparent. She wore her heart on her sleeve. RIP.
7 Totally Virgo: Zendaya
It remains unsurprising for Zendaya to be a Virgo. The actress and her cool, but intriguing charm speaks of the Virgo's core physicality. Along with being hardworking and a slight perfectionist, Zendaya has also been working at the craft of acting and performing since she was very young. This demonstrates the qualities of the Virgo in their ability to be extremely patient and intentional when it comes to their personal goals.
6 Not So Virgo: Melissa McCarthy
Melissa McCarthy is also a Virgo, but something about her gives away a Sagittarius-like personality. The actress and comedian is fun, light and does not appear to take herself too seriously. She is an incredible actor, there is no denying that, however, her personality does not match with the Virgo-born.
The actress's unpredictability and comical flair may be more reminiscent of the Sagittarius or Gemini. Perhaps these placements are very present in her natal chart which could explain the personality differences.
5 Totally Virgo: Michael Jackson
Michael Jackson is another legend to stand on this list. The artist is truly a Virgo and it is partially for his greatness. The artist and his perfectionism got him extremely far in his career. When we think of Michael Jackson as a Virgo, we recognize the sign's true hardworking, sharp and patient archetype. Indeed, a Virgo will place a strong emphasis on their goals and fall in love with the process of bringing them to fruition perfectly. That is what Michael Jackson was all about. RIP.
4 Not So Virgo: Lil Yachty
Rapper Lil Yachty finds himself on this list as a fellow Virgo. And although we do not discredit his hard work or ability to make powerful strides in his field, he simply does not give off the Virgo vibe. The rapper's adaptable personality and varied physicality speak of someone comfortable with change. Lil Yachty constantly recreates himself and his fluidity would bring him closer to the Scorpio's deeper sense of constant transformation.
3 Totally Virgo: Beyonce
This list would not be complete without citing Beyonce. The singer and extraordinary performer embodies what it truly means to be a Virgo and so in all its positive attributes. Beyonce is extremely analytical and prides herself on overachieving. She continuously exceeds all expectations and sets the bar incredibly high.
The songstress embodies the Virgo's sharp and calculating mind along with the strive for perfection. After all, there is a reason why Beyonce is praised all over the world. She works hard and knows how to do what she does very well, which is to be a star.
2 Not So Virgo: Gene Simmons
KISS member Gene Simmons is also a Virgo who does not completely fit the sign. The actor's versatility and comfort with change bring him slightly closer to the characteristics of a Sagittarius or a Libra. There is something free-flowing about Gene Simmons and his adaptiveness to change does not truly reflect the Virgo's slow and steady stride.
1 Totally Virgo: Kobe Bryant
Legendary basketball player and athlete Kobe Bryant was also a Virgo. The sports star garnered much respect around his enduring work ethic and perfectionist ways. Kobe Bryant took the game very seriously and coined the concept of "Mamba mentality" for this reason.
In his words, "If you see me in a fight with a bear, pray for the bear." Such a quote speaks to a Virgo's confidence in themselves to achieve all they can because they are willing to put in the extra work. Indeed, Kobe Bryant's excellence has inspired many other athletes after him. RIP to a legend.
