15 Celebrity Marriages That Lasted Less Than a Year

Check out the 15 shortest celebrity marriages, and let us know below: Which couple do you wish had stayed together?

Britney Spears and Jason Alexander: 55 Hours

You might recall that, back in 2004, the pop star tied the knot with her childhood friend Alexander after parting in Las Vegas. Despite the fact that the marriage immediately made headlines all over the world, it lasted a mere 55 hours before it was promptly annulled.

Carmen Electra and Dennis Rodman: 9 Days

Vegas strikes again! In 1998, the flamboyant basketball player wed the “Baywatch” sexpot at 7 a.m. in Sin City. Afterwards, Rodman’s publicist had a lot of question, and even put forth that he may have been “deeply intoxicated” at the time. (No!?) Clearly, the buzz wore off fast: The pair filed for annulment nine days later.

Cher and Gregg Allman: 9 Days

Another case of the nine-day itch. Back in July 1975, Cher and rocker Allman hightailed it to Vegas and tied the knot (just days after her divorce from Sonny Bono was finalized, mind you). Cher filed for another divorce nine days later after reportedly discovering that Allmans’ booze-and-drug issues were too much for her. Uh, she didn’t know that before she said “I do?”

Ali Landry and Mario Lopez: 18 Days

In 2004, the former “Saved the Bell” actor wed girlfriend of six years (also known asas the Doritos hottie) Landry, but the marriage was annulled after 18 days because Landry found out Lopez had been unfaithful.

Drew Barrymore and Jeremy Thomas: 39 Days

Of course Barrymore would have a quickie marriage. In 1994, the 19-year-old free-spirited actress wed Thomas—a 32-year-old L.A. bar owner and Welshman—after knowing him for six weeks. Drew filed for divorce 39 days later.

Pamela Anderson and Rick Salomon: 60 Days

She wouldn’t be Pam Anderson if she didn’t have a couple of quickie marriages under her thong. The “Baywatch” star married Salomon (who famously co-starred in Paris Hilton’s sex tape) in Las Vegas in October 2007, a wedding that took place during a short evening break from a show she was appearing in at the time. Pam, however, filed for divorce less than ten weeks later, citing the classic “irreconcilable differences.

Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries: 72 Days

Not the shortest celebrity marriage in history, but surely the most infamous. The reality star tied the knot with the basketball player in 2011, to fanfare that can only be described as nauseating. The wedding reportedly cost around $10 million (though many aspects were product-placed freebies), and was part of a two-day E! special called “Kim’s Fairytale Wedding.”

After 72 days though, the nups came to an end, with Kim issuing a statement saying “After careful consideration, I have decided to end my marriage. I hope everyone understands this was not an easy decision. I had hoped this marriage was forever, but sometimes things don’t work out as planned. We remain friends and wish each other the best.”  Obviously, many speculated the whole OTT fiasco was a publicity stunt. Whether it was or not, Kardashian only got more famous, while Humphries faded into obscurity.
