Famous people born in the Year of the Ox

Short answer

The Ox is the second of the twelve animals of the Chinese zodiac. In the traditional groupings, the allies of the Ox are the Snake and the Rooster, the secret friend is the Rat, and the clash, the animal opposite, is the Goat.

A Chinese year starts at the lunar new year, in late January or in February. A birthday before that day belongs to the animal of the year before.
