Rabbit spells success for Jolie, bad times for Brad

Money and success are in store for Year of the Rabbit celebrities Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp, but Depp is more likely to find scandal than happiness in romance, according to a Taiwanese fortune teller.

Fellow entertainer rabbits Zac Efron from "High School Musical," along with "Desperate Housewives" star Eva Longoria and Black Eyed Peas singer Fergie, will all make more money this year, Chan Wei-chung, a celebrity fortune teller, told Reuters Television.

He predicted also no trouble getting pregnant for actresses Kate Winslet and Drew Barrymore if they want to.

Chinese around the world are preparing for the Lunar New Year, which starts on Feb 3 and is the most important holiday in the Chinese calendar.

According to the Chinese Culture Center of San Francisco's website, people born in the Year of the Rabbit are articulate, talented, and ambitious. They are virtuous, reserved, and have excellent taste. Rabbit people are also admired, trusted, and are often financially lucky.

For Jolie, one of the world's top box office stars, financial luck will be hers this year.

"She is very stable in her relationship and won't be too influenced by it, she will be very relaxed," Chan added, though partner Brad Pitt, also a Rabbit, is not so fortunate.

"He is the one who will feel pressure and discomfort, is likely to feel hurt and want to escape," he said.

As for the unmarried Depp, It is unlikely to be a very happy year: "His love life will be easily plagued by scandal and rumor."

Barrymore, meanwhile, should watch out for jealous people trying to deceive her.

And what lies ahead for another celebrity rabbit, soccer star David Beckham, who recently announced that he and ex-Spice Girl wife Victoria are expecting their third child? Nothing much at all, Chen said.
