Press Article: Hollywood’s Superstitions: Stars Embrace the Power of Number 13
In the glitzy world of Hollywood, superstition meets star power as celebrities seek comfort in the mystical realms of astrology and numerology. With rituals like knocking on wood and tossing salt over their shoulders, even the most successful superstars aren’t immune to these beliefs—especially on the notorious Friday the 13th.
Interestingly, several major stars were born on this supposedly unlucky day. Among them are Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, who entered the world on June 13, 1986, and Lili Reinhart of Riverdale fame, who celebrates her birthday on September 13, 1996. For these stars, the significance of the number 13 seems more like a badge of honor than a harbinger of bad luck.
Pop icon Taylor Swift has wholeheartedly embraced the number 13, attributing a series of fortunate events to it. "I was born on the 13th," she shared with MTV in 2009. "I turned 13 on Friday the 13th. My first album went gold in 13 weeks, and my first No. 1 song had a 13-second intro." Swift elaborated that, throughout her career, she has consistently encountered the number 13, whether it be through award seating or other milestones, claiming it as a sign of good fortune.
As various stars continue to navigate the strange waters of superstition, it becomes clear that for many in the industry, the alignment of the stars—or simply a lucky number—can hold a profound significance, guiding them through the complexities of fame. Thus, while Friday the 13th might frighten some, for many celebrities, it offers a reminder of the luck that can lie within the unconventional.
