Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable.

Pamela Anderson and Kid Rock

Pamela Anderson and Kid Rock **

Pamela Anderson definitely has a thing for bad boys. After her very public battle with Tommy Lee, Anderson found her way into Kid Rock’s arms in 2001 and became engaged by 2002. However, they ended it before they made their way down the aisle. The couple found each other again in 2006 and were married and divorced within four months. But, Anderson wasn’t done there. In 2007 she married Rick Salomon for two months, but officially had it annulled 5 months later. I'm guessing she remembered the sex tape he made with Paris Hilton.

I don't know what my type is," Anderson told Ellen DeGeneres.

Eddie Murphy and Tracey E. Edmonds

Eddie Murphy and Tracey E. Edmonds Eddie Murphy **may play a smooth husband in some of his movies however, he has proven otherwise in real life. Murphy struck out a second time in 2008 when he made his way to the alter for a spiritual ceremony with his fiancé **Tracey E. Edmonds, who is the ex-wife of Kenneth “Babyface” Edmonds. The couple never made their way to a legal ceremony; their spiritual connection only lasted two weeks. I think maybe Spice Girl Melanie Brown having Murphy's baby scared Edmonds away.

Wow in 1909! Just goes to show Jacqui that celebrities are always quick to divorce!

I'm always amazed at celebrity marriages. Do you think they go into it thinking it will actually work or do they just don't think beyond their next movie project?

Britney Spears and Jason Alexander made history in 2004 ;)

Back in 1909, Rudolph Valentino & Jean Acker were celebrities who were only married 8 HOURS!!!!! Can you believe that?

I'm not sure what some of them think...especially the ones who don't even know each other when they get married. Maybe they just want to be in the media?!

Britney is always making history!! But she didn't beat Zsa Zsa Gabor or Robin Givens!
