Who would have put a fading '80s popstar and a Hollywood biggie together? But apparently, back in the days when Brad was a TV star (remember his brief appearance in 'Dallas'?), he hooked up with none other than Sinitta. The relationship lasted for two years and hit the wall because Sinitta, by all accounts, was just too wild for sensible Brad. The 'So Macho' (Sinitta) singer recalls, 'I was really young and at the peak of my career and I didn't want to sit and be romantic and eat dinner at home. I think he looked after me more than I looked after him. But I didn't want to be looked after too much. I didn't want another mother'.

It really was a case of beauty marrying the beast. . . . the only thing was, he didn't turn into a prince and there wasn't a fairytale ending. The world looked on aghast as the original Pretty Woman married her unlikely match, craggy-faced country singer Lyle Lovett, who, let's face it, is no Richard Gere. But the marriage only lasted for a couple of years and the pair divorced in 1995

We understand and me no complain Pls give us the latest couple now. Thanks |

Michael Jackson & Lisa Marie Presley This could have been a match made in music heaven. Unfortunately, the once-handsome Michael completely changed his looks with extensive cosmetic surgery and suffered a personality crisis after years of living in Neverland. And Lisa Marie, daughter of the King of rock 'n' roll, had serious self-esteem issues. We can't even imagine the conversations these two might have had, let alone anything else!

Dita von Teese & Marilyn Manson As different as they both may be, put them together and they made a striking couple. Dita may dress like a '50s goddess, but she is a wild one on stage, regularly dunking herself in and out of giant martini glasses while wearing no more than a teeny-weeny bikini. An act quite different from her Manson's controversial musical musings. . . . but perhaps they bonded over middle America's condemnation of their methods of earning a living before von Teese filed for divorce late in 2006.

Heather Locklear & David Spade Ex-wife of Bon Jovi musician Richie Sambora and Mötley Crüe's Tommy Lee, actress Heather Locklear, once dubbed the 'queen of mean' due to the evil characters she portrayed, dated baby-faced comedian David Spade. Perhaps the 'Dynasty' star has had enough drama in her life and just wants someone to make her laugh, Unsurprisingly, the couple split in May 2006.

Friends of White Stripes rocker Jack White were shocked when he started a relationship with straight-laced Hollywood actress Renée Zellweger. Suddenly, he started enjoying cosy nights in - a far cry from his wild nights of partying. But it seems Jack missed his crazy benders too much and the pair split in 2004.

Rumour once had it that Tara Palmer-Tomkinson and Robbie Williams holed themselves up for days at his place, getting it on, eating, sleeping and listening to Robbie's new songs. They may come from different walks of life, but both have struggled with drug addictions and living in the glare of the paparazzi, so maybe this coupling isn't so odd after all.

OK, so they weren't officially a couple, but after meeting on Michael Parkinson's talk show, Tom Cruise rang Olympic gold medallist Kelly Holmes and invited her to accompany him to the premiere of his film 'Collateral'. Sadly for Tom, the champ turned him down flat, claiming she was exhausted after all the homecoming celebrations. She did tell the superstar that she would most definitely be available next time, so maybe we should watch out for that duo on the red carpet.

This must be one of the most bizarre pairings in the entire celeb kingdom. Rock groupie Courtney Love, who was married to Kurt Cobain, had a two-week fling and allegedly got pregnant by Steve Coogan. Courtney now appears to regret this little affair: 'Given the A-grade stars I've dated, it's embarrassing. I mean, Alan Partridge!'

Tom Cruise's relationship with Katie Holmes has courted massive controversy from day one. Who would have paired the cute ex-'Dawson's Creek' actress with the household Hollywood name and devout Scientologist Tom Cruise? Not least because of their 16-year age gap. Rumours were rife that it was a publicity stunt. If it was, it hardly worked in their favour, as the relationship marked a downfall in Cruise's career as he continually embarrassed himself, publicly declaring his love for Holmes. Since then, fans have campaigned to 'Free Katie' from the relationship, while others are more concerned her wardrobe has prematurely aged since their romance began. Despite this, they're still going strong - within three years the couple were engaged, married and have had their first child together.

Definitely agree with Julie and Lyle lovitts where's Mariah & Nick Cannon? |
Re: Odd Celebrity Couples by spikedcylinder: 5:36pm On Dec 01, 2008 |
As a good example of beauty being in the eye of the beholder, the couple are still going strong and have no less than three children together.

Brad also went out with Robin (Mike Tyson's ex) Hehehehe Dita and Marilyn Rachel is morphing into Dita |

Perhaps the most unlikely pairing in celebdom at the moment: pint-sized pop jazz sensation Jamie Cullum and fashionista Sophie Dahl began dating after meeting at the Lavender Trust Ball earlier this year. Even the 8in height difference doesn't seem to be deterring Jamie from beaming at his lanky lady-love.

Canadian warbler Celine Dion opted for a man 26 years older than her when she wed in 1994. The fact that her hubby René Angelil was also her manager and re-mortgaged his home to finance her first record probably helped her over the hurdle of an age difference. Family gatherings must be a relaxing affair, as René's oldest son from his first marriage is the same age as Celine.

The sartorially challenged Helena Bonham Carter and Tim Burton - who are expecting a sibling for their three-year-old son, Billy Raymond, in December - boast an unusual living arrangement: they share two London houses with interconnecting doors, to allow them their own space. I like these two sha!

Woody Allen and Soon-Yi Previn . Actress Mia Farrow discovered partner Woody Allen's affair with her adopted daughter when she found nude photographs he had taken of Soon-Yi. Although they're now married, it's still quite weird.

Anna Nicole Smith and J. Howard Marshall This relationship was doomed to end in tragedy. Anna Nicole married the 89-year-old wheelchair-bound billionaire in 1994. But he died in 1995. Anna Nicole was still contesting his will when she passed away. Oh! True love!

Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey. How the hell did this happen!! |

Sean Penn and Madonna The intensely private actor and the not-exactly-publicity-shy Material Girl met while Madonna was shooting a video. To everyone's surprise, they dated and got married, but their romance was doomed.

David Gest and Liza Minneli Is it just me or do these two look absolutely weird individually and as a couple? They look like they were carved of of some really messed up material. It is ok to age gracefully sha. . .

Whoopi Goldberg and Ted Danson Yes, the star of superlative TV sitcom Cheers was with Whoopi Goldberg; feel free to pick up your jaw when you're ready. They made a film together which featured Will Smith.
