The Top 20 self confessed Witches and Wizards in Hollywood and the music industry

a list of notable self-confessed or openly admitting witches/wizards (or very close equivalents) from Hollywood and the music industry.

True “self-confessed” cases are relatively rare, as many celebrities dabble in occult themes, crystals, tarot, paganism, or mysticism without using the exact label “witch” or “wizard.” I’ve prioritized those with direct public statements, admissions of practicing spells/rituals, or strong self-identification. The “top 20” is subjective based on prominence and explicitness.

Music Industry

1. Lorde — Directly stated “I am basically a witch” in interviews, referencing her comfort with ghosts/spirits.
2. Lana Del Rey — Admitted to participating in a binding spell/hex on Donald Trump and described herself as a “mystic at heart” who believes in the power of thoughts/words as magic.
3. Stevie Nicks — Long associated with witch imagery (e.g., “Rhiannon”); leaned into the reputation over decades, including appearing on American Horror Story: Coven, though she has denied literal black magic.
4. Azealia Banks — Very outspoken about practicing brujería (witchcraft), including animal sacrifice videos and public statements.
5. Princess Nokia — Identifies as a bruja, incorporates ancestor worship and Yoruba traditions.
6. Sully Erna (Godsmack) — Publicly Wiccan, initiated into the tradition.
7. Jill Janus (Huntress) — Described herself as a “little white witch” who invoked witchcraft for songwriting.
8. Grimes — Has referenced Wiccan interests and occult themes; called her style “Witch House.”

Hollywood / Acting & Reality TV

9. Vanessa Hudgens — Straight-up self-admitted witch; has discussed herbalism, seeing ghosts, and embracing the title in interviews and a documentary.
10. Heather Graham — Has a group called “The Goddesses” who cast spells together (e.g., summoning storms, election spells).
11. Spencer Pratt (The Hills) — Confessed to training as a wizard with a coach and using a quartz wand.
12. Rachel True (The Craft) — Considers herself a real-life mystic/witch; wrote a tarot book and credits witchcraft for personal strength.
13. Fairuza Balk (The Craft) — Studied the craft seriously after the film.
14. Cybill Shepherd — Identified as a “Christian Pagan Buddhist Goddess worshiper” and thanked the “Great Goddess” at the Golden Globes.
15. Aubrey Plaza — Performs spells (sage, crystals, positive energy rituals) and has a strong witchy persona.

Others Often Cited (Dabblers or Strong Associations)

16. Katy Perry — Uses crystals heavily (e.g., rose quartz for love) and has occult-themed songs.
17. Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen — Heavy into smudging, crystals, and selling witchy items.
18. Evan Rachel Wood — Uses sage and gemstones to “clean demons” from places.
19. Gisele Bündchen (model/actress adjacent) — Uses crystals, stones, and mantras; called a “good witch” by Tom Brady.
20. Björk — Early band name meant “witchcraft”; heavy occult/folk mysticism themes.

Notes:

• Many more celebrities (e.g., Beyoncé) face rumors or use symbolic imagery but haven’t explicitly self-identified.
• “Wizard” admissions are rarer (Spencer Pratt is one of the clearest).
• Practices range from Wicca/paganism and folk magic to New Age mysticism. Public statements can be playful or serious depending on context.

This list draws from interviews, public statements, and credible reports rather than pure conspiracy theories. Interest in these topics has grown in pop culture.
