Celebrity Relationship Disasters

When celebrities are pregnant, a lot of them let themselves go for the first time in their public lives.

Hollywood relationships are anything but stable, and there doesn't seem to be a formula for making Hollywood love last. Marilyn Monroe was a sex symbol whose relationships were also closely monitored, and women cried every time Elvis Presley was rumored to be with someone new.

Movie stars are more interesting than their movies, musicians are more intriguing than their songs, and a celebrity breakup is ten times better than any award winning scenes or music scores. Can celebrities actually offer us relationship advice? I think not...
