Quick, Fast and In a Hurry: Short Lived Hollywood Marriages




Marriage is a tough business in the modern age, especially in Hollywood. The marriage vows say "in sickness and in health" and " until death do us part", but folks in Tinsel Town are racing one another to see who can call it quits the fastest. Here are some of Hollywood's famous pairs that ended it all, almost before the ink was dry on their marriage license.

Britany Spears may be the record-holder of those "ending" the marriage with a quickness. She ended things with Jason Alexander after just 55 hours.

Dennis Rodman and Carmen Electra called it quits after 9 days, but I wonder how she held on so long. Better yet, how did she decide to jump the broom with Rodman in the first place?
 

It took 14 days, a mere two weeks, for "Beverly Hill Cops" star Eddie Murphy and film producer Tracy Edmonds to abort their "spiritual union" that took place on Bora Bora. It's something fishy about this one, but who am I to ask questions.




While they reportedly only lived together for seven days after the nuptials, Irish singer Sinead O'Connor and Barry Herridge ended their marriage after a brief 16 days.



Drew Barrymore wed Jeremy Thomas in a 5 a.m. ceremony at his bar "The Room". The marriage lasted one month, while her next marriage to Tom Green lasted five months. To her credit, Drew stood by Tom during his battle with testicular cancer before the couple went their separate ways.



Chad 'Ochocinco' Johnson and Evelyn Lozada said I do, but 41 days later the couple said I don't. Seems  they pulled the plug on their marriage after things turned violent and the bride wound up with a 3 inch gash on her forehead.


Now I know that divorcing after 72 days is no record. Kim Kardashian made big bucks when she sold the rights to her wedding films. Divorce proceeding were lengthy and Kris Humphries made no secret about his bitterness toward the buxom brunette . Kim gave birth to a baby daughter North by new "baby daddy" Kanye West a few weeks after her union to Kris  was legally dissolved.

While these are just a few of the "shortest" marriages in Hollywood, many more couple fall in and out of wedlock with great speed and smile their way through all the drama behind the scenes.
