ARieS<br />
(March 21 - April 20) : Simplifying<br />
and reducing waste in your professional<br />
life can be especially helpful to<br />
you with Saturn transiting your solar tenth<br />
house, and today, this task comes naturally.<br />
Self-improvement efforts seem to tie in with<br />
your long-term or career goals at this time.<br />
tAURUS<br />
(April 21 - May 21) : A realistic approach to<br />
your relationships wins favor. The key is holding<br />
modest or regular expectations, since<br />
expecting too much, either of yourself or others, can lead<br />
to ups and downs. This can also be a time for getting a nice<br />
little window into what may have recently been tripping<br />
you up so that you can now make some improvements.<br />
GeMini<br />
(May 22 - June 21) : Simplifying is usually<br />
in order when Saturn is strong as it<br />
is today. You might also discover that<br />
using a bit of strategy rather than throwing too<br />
much energy into an endeavor is the most successful<br />
approach at this time. Today, it can be very satisfying<br />
to make the best of what you have.<br />
In mid-November, Kylie Jenner<br />
marked a milestone moment<br />
with a visit to a strip mall. For<br />
the past three years, her Kylie<br />
Cosmetics had only sold its<br />
makeup online and briefly in<br />
pop up shops. But after signing<br />
an exclusive distribution deal<br />
with Ulta, the beauty retailer,<br />
Kylie Cosmetics was rolling its<br />
$29 lip kits-a matte liquid lipstick<br />
and matching lip liner-into<br />
Ulta's 1,000-plus stores. And<br />
Jenner showed up to the<br />
Richmond Avenue Ulta in<br />
Houston to greet customers,<br />
sign autographs on lip kits and,<br />
of course, pose for selfies with<br />
her fans.<br />
Over the next six weeks, Kylie<br />
Cosmetics sold $54.5 million<br />
worth of products in Ulta,<br />
according to estimates from<br />
Oppenheimer. "I popped up at a<br />
few stores, I did my usual social<br />
media-I did what I usually do,<br />
and it just worked," she says.<br />
Fueled in part by the Ulta<br />
expansion, Kylie Cosmetics' revenue<br />
climbed 9% last year to an<br />
estimated $360 million. With<br />
that kind of growth, and even<br />
using a conservative multiple<br />
from the booming makeup<br />
industry, Forbes estimates<br />
Jenner's company is worth at<br />
least $900 million. She owns all<br />
of it. Add in the cash Jenner has<br />
already pulled from the profitable<br />
business and the 21-yearold<br />
is now a billionaire, with an<br />
estimated fortune of $1 billion.<br />
She's the youngest-ever selfmade<br />
billionaire, reaching a tenfigure<br />
fortune at a younger age<br />
than even Mark Zuckerberg<br />
(who was 23 when he hit that<br />
mark).<br />
"I didn't expect anything. I did<br />
not foresee the future," says<br />
Jenner, who is the youngest billionaire<br />
in the world. "But [the<br />
recognition] feels really good.<br />
That's a nice pat on the back."<br />
"It's the power of social media,"<br />
Jenner says. "I had such a strong<br />
reach before I was able to start<br />
anything." JAMEL TOPPIN<br />
FOR FORBES<br />
The beauty of Kylie Cosmetics,<br />
which Jenner started in 2015, is<br />
its minuscule overhead-and the<br />
outsize profits that go straight<br />
into Jenner's pocket. Her<br />
empire consists of just seven<br />
full-time and five part-time<br />
employees. Marketing is done<br />
mostly through social media,<br />
where Jenner has a massive following.<br />
She announces product<br />
launches, previews new items<br />
and announces the Kylie<br />
Cosmetics shades she's wearing<br />
directly to the 175 million-plus<br />
who follow her across Snapchat,<br />
Instagram, Facebook and<br />
Twitter. "It's the power of social<br />
media," Jenner says. "I had such<br />
a strong reach before I was able<br />
to start anything."<br />
When Kylie Cosmetics<br />
launched in Ulta in 50 states, the<br />
reaction was a real-life version<br />
of the online rush Jenner created<br />
years earlier, when her initial<br />
kits sold out online in less than a<br />
minute. Ulta shoppers went<br />
wild. In some stores inventory<br />
was gone in hours. "It sold out<br />
faster than we planned," admits<br />
Tara Simon, Ulta's senior vice<br />
president of merchandising.<br />
"She did well online, but there's<br />
only so far that that can take<br />
her," says Shannon Coyne, an<br />
equity research analyst at BMO<br />
Capital Markets. "She probably<br />
realized: 'If I want to get big, I've<br />
got to scale, and to do that, I<br />
need a partner.' Ultimately, she<br />
wants to grow her brand, and<br />
she needs this store presence to<br />
do that."<br />
For now, Jenner is focused on<br />
expanding her product range to<br />
include a setting powder, and<br />
bringing eyeshadows, powders<br />
and bronzers to Ulta. "I see<br />
[Kylie Cosmetics] going very<br />
far," Jenner says. "I work really<br />
hard." Whatever happens next,<br />
one thing is certain. Jenner will<br />
share it all on social media,<br />
much to the delight of her tens<br />
of millions of fans.<br />

for productivity and organization<br />
toward these ends, and you're likely<br />
to find it easier than usual to make a few sacrifices<br />
now if it helps you later. You're feeling<br />
a little more grounded and secure, and it suits<br />

ScoRpio<br />
(Oct. 24 - Nov. 22) : It also helps that both<br />
the Sun and Saturn are harmonizing<br />
with your sign, encouraging an appreciation<br />

for applying yourself to creative pursuits and hobbies<br />
or to productive types of recreation. You see<br />
more clearly the benefits of hard work.<br />
SAGittARiUS<br />
(Nov. 23 - Dec. 21) : Small efforts to connect<br />
with family can go a long way<br />
towards strengthening ties, and a moderate<br />
approach can be most appreciated. Slowing down<br />
can improve the quality of your work, and highlights<br />
your appreciation of the simpler things in life. This is<br />
a time for conserving energy and building strength.<br />

The actor who played Jack<br />
Black's guitar-playing prodigy<br />
in "School of Rock" was arrested<br />
and accused of swiping several<br />
expensive guitars in Florida<br />
in the past five weeks, authorities<br />
said Wednesday. Joseph<br />
"Joey" Gaydos Jr., 27, who<br />
played Zack Mooneyham in the<br />
20<strong>03</strong> movie, has open theft and<br />
shoplifting cases in Sarasota,<br />
Venice and North Port, police<br />
and arrest records showed.<br />
On Jan. 31 in North Port,<br />
Gaydos asked a store clerk if he<br />
could play an $800 Les Paul<br />
Epiphone Prophecy guitar - and<br />
he did, before dashing out without<br />
paying, according to a probable<br />
cause affidavit prepared by<br />
Officer Ralph Casselli. The<br />
heavily redacted report didn't<br />
show how police tracked down<br />
Gaydos, before his arrest on<br />
Feb. 25.<br />
Gaydos was inside Troll<br />
Music store on Feb. 7 in Venice,<br />
when he strapped on a guitar<br />
and casually walked the floor<br />
while playing it, according to<br />
security video posted by that<br />
city's police department. "When<br />

Academy Award (R) nominee Chloë Sevigny (Boys Don't Cry, "Big Love") stars as<br />
Lizzie Borden, the notorious woman at the heart of one of the most enduring mysteries<br />
in American history. After a lifetime of loneliness, Lizzie finds a kindred spirit<br />
in housemaid Bridget Sullivan (Kristen Stewart) and their secret intimacy sparks<br />
an unthinkable act. Director Craig William Macneill (The Boy (2015), "Channel<br />
Zero: Candle Cove") explores the days leading up to the savage crimes in a dark tale<br />
of repression, exploitation and thwarted dreams.<br />

police spokeswoman Lorraine<br />
Anderson said on Wednesday.<br />
Then in Sarasota, he was arrested<br />
on Feb. 11 for allegedly swiping<br />
a $1,900 guitar from the<br />
Sam Ash Music Store, according<br />
to police. Gaydos had<br />
walked out of the store with the<br />

on Wednesday. The fantasy<br />
adventure is moving its release<br />
date up by seven months. It had<br />
previously been slated to debut<br />
on May 29, 2020.<br />
The new date pits<br />
"Maleficent: Mistress of Evil"<br />

Joey Gados Jr. was arrested<br />
after allegedly trying to steal guitars<br />

need to be arrested. I stole the<br />
guitar," Gaydos allegedly told the<br />
arresting officer. Gaydos has been<br />
charged with two counts of grand<br />
theft and one count of shoplifting,<br />
according to Sarasota and<br />
Manatee County Sheriff's jail<br />
records.<br />
"School of Rock" is the only<br />
acting credited listed for<br />
Gaydos, according to IMDB. In<br />
a where-are-they-now piece<br />
about "School of Rock," the<br />
Hollywood Reporter said this<br />
past October that Gaydos was<br />
concentrating on a music career<br />
in his native Michigan. Gaydos'<br />
father answered the phone at<br />
the family's listed Florida number<br />
on Wednesday and told<br />
NBC News that his son hadn't<br />
yet hired a lawyer and did not<br />
want to discuss the cases.<br />

will also have to contend with<br />
the second weekends of "The<br />
Adams Family," the adaptation<br />
of Donna Tartt's "The<br />
Goldfinch," "Zombieland 2,"<br />
and "Gemini Man," a futuristic<br />
thriller that unites Will Smith<br />
and Ang Lee. If it had opened<br />
on its original date in May,<br />
"Maleficent: Mistress of Evil"<br />
would have been facing off<br />
against the sophomore weekends<br />
of "Fast & Furious 9" and<br />
"The Spongebob Movie."<br />
In the film, Angelina Jolie<br />
reprises her role as the villainous<br />
enchantress Maleficent. The<br />
cast also includes Elle Fanning,<br />
Sam Riley, Imelda Staunton,<br />
Juno Temple, and Lesley<br />
Manville, who appeared in the<br />
first installment, as well as franchise<br />

box office smash when it<br />
opened in 2014. It grossed<br />
$758.5 million globally on a<br />
$180 million budget.<br />
-VARIETY<br />
cAnceR<br />
(June 22 - July 23) : Patience with<br />
others has strong rewards for you.<br />
It's a good time to build your faith<br />
in a person or relationship, as well as for<br />
showing your value and strength to a special<br />
someone, especially through practical<br />
displays of affection.<br />
Leo<br />
(July 24 - Aug. 23) : Your sense<br />
of tomorrow is strong and dominant,<br />
and working on making<br />
today more secure makes the most sense<br />
now. Look for activities that help anchor<br />
or ground you, as they may be precisely<br />
what you need right now. Feeling useful<br />
serves a need.<br />
ViRGo<br />
(Aug. 24 - Sept. 23) : Make a decision,<br />
solve a dilemma, edit a project, or<br />
organize an area of your life. Benefiting<br />
from someone's wisdom or experience can figure<br />
strongly now. The Moon's move into your intimacy<br />
sector also suggests a more serious and considered<br />
approach to the day.<br />
cApRicoRn<br />
(Dec. 22 - Jan. 20) : Those things that fell<br />
out of view or that were neglected can<br />
now demand your focus. People may still<br />
be looking for your help, but it seems best that you<br />
focus on some personal affairs that need sorting.<br />
Mind you, this is a good time for being taken seriously,<br />
and getting organized comes naturally to you.<br />
AQUARiUS<br />
(Jan. 21 - Feb. 19) : There are benefits<br />
to looking into ways to improve<br />
your finances, business, or practical<br />
affairs now, and simplifying seems the key to<br />
success and happiness under the influence of<br />
a Sun-Saturn aspect. As you clear the decks,<br />
you discover that you can be more productive<br />
and organized.<br />
piSceS<br />
(Feb. 20 - Mar. 20) : A logical, orderly<br />
approach to what you do yields the<br />
right results. Perhaps most important,<br />
the ability to accept things for what they<br />
are leads to success now. The Moon's transit of<br />
your resources sector is another sign that<br />
you're seeking to feel grounded.<br />
John Cena<br />
posts picture of<br />
Ranveer Singh's<br />
Gully Boy<br />
John Cena continues to confound fans on<br />
Instagram. His latest post is of Ranveer<br />
Singh's Gully Boy. Wrestler-turned-actor<br />
John Cena has posted a picture from the<br />
film Gully Boy on his Instagram. Cena frequently<br />
posts random images on social<br />
media, keeping with his bio, which reads,<br />
"Welcome to my Instagram. These images<br />
will be posted without explanation, for your<br />
interpretation. Enjoy."<br />
The image of Gully Boy seems to be the<br />
cover image for the song Apna Time Ayega,<br />
performed by actor Ranveer Singh in the<br />
film. Directed by Zoya Akhtar, Gully Boy is<br />
based on Mumbai's underground rap scene,<br />
and tells the story of Murad, a young man<br />
with aspirations of making it big in the<br />
world of music. The film was warmly<br />
received by both critics and audiences.<br />
Several fans reacted to the post in confusion,<br />
but also with pride. "Boht hard boht<br />
hard," wrote one person. "John cena is fire,"<br />
wrote another. Cena has previously shared<br />
random images of comedian Kapil Sharma<br />
and singer Daler Mehndi. The actor has previously<br />
quoted Shah Rukh Khan on both<br />
Twitter and Instagram, the most recent<br />
coming earlier this week. He had previously<br />
quoted SRK in July, writing, "Neither power<br />
nor poverty can make your life more magical<br />
or less torturous." Shah Rukh responded<br />
to Cena and wrote, "Thanks my friend for<br />
spreading the goodness. It's important to<br />
inspire so many kids who look up to u as<br />
their hero."<br />
In December, Cena had written that he<br />
felt fortunate to have stumbled upon one of<br />
Shah Rukh's speeches online. "Your perspective<br />
on life is one I strive to attain," he<br />
had written. "I cannot tell you how fortunate<br />
I am to have so many Indian fans. Every<br />
day, I go on to my social media accounts,<br />
and I see so many fans from India wanting<br />
to talk to me," Cena, who visited India in<br />
2005 as part of the WWE, had told<br />
Hindustan Times.<br />
Cena most recently appeared in the<br />
Transformers spin-off, Bumblebee. He has<br />
also signed on to a new Netflix film, to be<br />
directed by Jason Bateman. According to<br />
Variety, the film revolves around a family<br />
stuck in an old abandoned movie studio<br />
where the sets come to life.<br />
