The new year started with shocking news that newlyweds Katy Perry and Russell Brand were filing for divorce. After almost four years together -- one of them in marriage -- what went wrong?
Their star stats:
Katy
Sun: Scorpio
Moon: Scorpio
Mercury: Scorpio
Venus: Sagittarius
Mars: Capricorn
Russell
Sun: Gemini
Moon: Aries
Mercury: Gemini
Venus: Cancer
Mars: Aries
With Katy a Scorpio and Russell a Gemini, this was not a relationship that flowed easily. Their sexual chemistry was likely the fuel to their fire, as the intensity was most likely similar to burning a candle on both ends. For Katy, Russell’s submission probably led to her boredom. For Russell, Katy’s passion was likely hard for him to fully comprehend. All in all, despite the magic that this relationship may have started with, the upkeep would be hard for anyone to maintain -- let alone two celebrities with the world looking onto their every mood. That added pressure was likely combustible, making it too difficult for this couple to stay together in the long run.
