The Curse of the Celebrity Marriage



WTF! I'm so tired of the celebrities cries for attention by getting married for like a few months, days or weeks, it's so annoying. Whatever happened to the sanctity of marriage? For these celebrities it's like marriage is some kind of fashion accessory. A simple publicity stunt! The latest in this group of fly-by marriages is Peaches Geldof and her rock musician husband Max Drummey. They got married in Las Vegas last August, after just one month of meeting each other (hmm i always thought this was suspect), and despite people accusing it of being a sham marriage, Peaches was adamant that it was real. However, now it seems the oh-so beautiful marriage is over, with reports of the two getting divorced.


Here are more examples of the curse of the celebrity marriage.
