Throughout the years, the general public has become increasingly more interested in celebrity couples, and they follow them religiously through the tabloids and on social media. From the second that rumors begin to swirl until their inevitable end, these celebrity couples take the world by storm, especially when it involves two people that are at the top of the industry. Nicknames are given, stories are released and the people in these relationships receive more coverage than they could have ever asked for.

As much as we would like to believe that there is true love in Hollywood, the truth us that it is the place that manufactures dreams. Many celebrities that hop into a power couple are usually doing so for publicity. Rare is it to see a Hollywood couple actually in love, but it does happen occasionally.

Today, we are going to look at a bunch of couples that were fake, and just a few of the real ones.

25 Nina Dobrev And Derek Hough

When it was announced that Nina Dobrev was dating Derek Hough, most people simply were not buying it. The couple seemed more like friends than anything, and there were rumors that this was done simply as an attempt to get the public to think that Derek was a straight man.

24 Drake And Jennifer Lopez

Given the fact that these two individuals are two of the most powerful celebs in the world, people lost it when it seemed like they were an item. This was nothing more than publicity, as the pair was simply making some music together. Talk about making something out of nothing.

23 Riff Raff And Katy Perry

On the surface, it would seem like Riff Raff and Katy Perry have nothing in common aside from making music. They made some public appearances together, but it all seemed like a false reality. After imitating Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears at a huge event, they quickly fell apart without cameras around.

22 Henry Cavill And Kaley Cuoco

No one bought this, not even for a second. Henry Cavill and Kaley Cuoco were barely together long enough to have a cup of coffee, and people were convinced that this was only for some photo ops. Sometimes, stars use each other for a quick boost, which is what people pegged this short union as.

21 Will Smith And Jada Pinkett (True Love)

Will and Jada have been with each other for years now, and while they have been public about the bumps in the road that they have dealt with, they have made their romance work. Together, they have several grown kids, and their openness has been a focal point of their time in the headlines in recent years.

20 Blac Chyna And Rob Kardashian

Any people that know the inner workings of this relationship know that it is about as twisted as it gets. The longstanding rumor is that these two got together in order to get their own show on the small screen, and their “relationship” caused a tidal wave of drama for both.

19 Robert Pattinson And Kristen Stewart

Whenever co-stars get together and separate once their movies come out, people immediately begin to raise their eyebrows. Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart got together in the blink of an eye, and they split up and separated just as quickly. It seems just a little bit fishy, especially because they were a couple on screen.

18 Tom Hiddleston And Taylor Swift

There was a whole lot of noise going on in the media when these two were first spotted together, and it did not last long at all. Taylor has a huge list of exes, and several of them have been considered a publicity relationship. This thing fizzled out and seemed like a quick attention grab.

17 Chad Michael Murray And Sophia Bush

Oh, look, two co-stars that wind up getting together. What makes this worse is that they got married in an instant and wound up breaking up in no time. They still had to work together on the show, and even Sophia Bush admits that they should have never been married.

16 Kurt Russell And Goldie Hawn (True Love)

Hollywood couples being together for this long seems almost impossible, but when a love is true, then it is going to last. Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell have been together for decades, and they have done a great job of showing people how to make things work in the long run.

15 Noah Cyrus And Lil Xan

Noah Cyrus and Lil Xan are not nearly as famous as they think they are, but they have gotten some attention from the media. The couple had a relationship that didn’t last, and Lil Xan would come forward and even admit that it was all arranged. At least we got this picture from it all.

14 Kim Kardashian And Kris Humphries

She was a reality television star that was literally doing anything and everything for attention, and he was a basketball player in the NBA that was not nearly as famous as a legitimate superstar player. Mix them together and you have an attention grab of a marriage that lasted 72 days.

13 Renee Zellweger And Kenny Chesney

In yet another example of a star trying their best to get the public to think that they are straight, this ill-fated union between Kenny Chesney and Renee Zellweger was never going to work. Their marriage fizzled, and the cause for the split was cited as “fraud”. Yeah, this was obviously fake.

12 Jay-Z And Beyonce (True Love)

Jay-Z and Beyonce might be the most powerful couple in the world, and they have been setting the bar for others for years now. They were both incredibly successful in their own right, and the couple has gone on to have several children together. Talk about true love coming through.

11 Michael Jackson And Lisa Marie Presley

I mean…do we even need to say anything? The King of Pop marrying the King of Rock’s daughter was so painfully obvious. This was a sham from the start and virtually no one bought it. They did not last long, and given what we know now, it is clear that this was for attention.

10 Shannen Doherty And Ashley Hamilton

Back in the 90s, all bets were off on celebrity couples, and it seemed like there was a new one every single day. Actress Shannen Doherty and Ashley Hamilton married and separated in just a few months. A marriage that fizzles out this quickly between young stars is never a good look.

9 Steve-O And Nicole Richie

Almost no one remembers that this was an actual thing, and really, we can’t blame them. This was legitimately all for attention, and Steve-O has been pretty candid about their time together. This was back when both of them were much younger and far less interested in being in a relationship with one another.

8 Mark Consuelos And Kelly Ripa (True Love)

Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos were once young kids in love, but instead of just being a typical Hollywood romance that was all flash and little substance, the pair found actual love with one another. They have been considered couples goals by people that have kept up with them and their family.

7 Taylor Swift And Harry Styles

She was 23 and famous and he was 18 and becoming a superstar. It was odd seeing Swift get with someone that was so much younger than her, and people were not convinced that this was a legitimate relationship. The timing and nature of it all seemed way too staged.

6 Theo James And Shailene Woodley

Once again, we find ourselves with a pair of co-stars that did little in the way of being a believable couple. Their romance was far too convenient when considering everything that was going on already, and there were plenty of people that simply were not buying them being together for real.

5 Jennifer Aniston And Vince Vaughn

Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn seemed to have a relationship that started from out of nowhere, but as it were, the pair were making a movie together. They were not together for too long, and they weren’t out and about much. To no one’s surprise, their romance ended when the movie came out.

4 Tom Hanks And Rita Wilson (True Love)

In a rare example of true Hollywood love, let’s take a look at Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson. The couple got together in the 80s and have not looked back since. Making a marriage work for the long run is tough, but clearly, the love that they share is real and is passionate.

3 Nic Cage And Lisa Marie Presley

Aside from being a popular actor in Hollywood, Nic Cage is also known as being a massive fan of Elvis. So, what better way is there to show appreciation for the King of Rock than by marrying his daughter? This was an attention grab that never had a chance of working out.

2 Kid Rock And Pam Anderson

Where do we even start with this one? Some people cannot get enough of the spotlight, and back when they were together, Kid Rock and Pamela Anderson were more than happy to use one another to get a ton of attention. Their romance fizzled out, but not before Rock got into a fight with Anderson’s ex.

1 Carmen Electra And Dennis Rodman

Carmen Electra and Dennis Rodman made for one of the weirdest romances of their era, and considering that both were known for always wanting attention, people did not buy this for a second. It may have been believable if they had been married for longer than 9 days. Yes, it was that short.
