It's said that there is no business akin to show business.
Yes, definitely, most would concur – in no other business do rumors about
romantic hook-ups and estrangements fly as thick and fast! And leading the pack
is Hollywood, the land of glitzy celluloid dreams, where it as easy to be
seduced by charms of some attractive co-stars as it is to be repelled by the
weird shenanigans of other equally narcissistic ones. At least that's the
perception.
So which are the alliances and breakups that have provided
fodder for the star-struck public's imagination - here are the popular ones
that have dominated the news:
Rumored Marriages:
a) Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt: Ever
since this A-list glamorous pair met on the sets of 'Mr. & Mrs. Smith',
they've formed a very intimate and seemingly impregnable association. The
rapport and love that they share is evident from their conduct, statements,
period of cohabitation, and the attention they shower on their children – both
real and adopted ones. All this has led
fans to feverishly speculate on their wedding at every juncture. Matters came
to a head recently when Brad hosted an opulent party in his French Villa that
included, among many distinguished guests, the jewelry designer of Angelina.
But all gossip has proven false – at least for the time being- so people will
just have to wait!
b) Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson:
The couple who created a worldwide rage with their pairing in the 'Twilight'
series has made no bones about their real-life romantic relations. As usual,
this has sparked off wild anecdotes among crazed fans about their impending
wedding. This link-up, it seems however, will remain just that – immediate
marriage plans have been recently denied by Robert who further claimed that he
had been misquoted by some overzealous film scribes.
c) Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake:
No doubt, the young celebrity couple is engaged but rumor mongers are insisting
that they are soon going to tie the knot too – after all a 5-year engagement is
an eon by Hollywood terms. But Jessica has quashed all such hearsay declaring
that her relationship with Justin is as strong as ever and the couple feels no
pressure to exchange wedding vows just yet.
Rumored Breakups:
a) Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith: Will
Smith has arguably been the most successful and multifaceted movie celebrity in
recent times having found fame in every genre - be it films, music, or
production. His 15-year marriage to Jada Pinkett Smith is another celebrated
fact in Hollywood, where relations are so fickle. Recently, however, there was
increasing tittle-tattle about them filing for divorce due to differences over
fostering of their two children. This rumor was also fueled by them not
revealing much during public gatherings. It took Jada an interview with a movie
glossy to finally dispel the rumors as unfounded and malicious.
b) Melanie Griffith and Antonio
Banderas: Griffith had a very public breakup with Don Johnson, her former
husband of 'Miami Vice' fame, and went on to wed Banderas. Now it seems the
divorce curse is on them what with reports to that effect having emerged. It
all started when Griffith was spotted sans her wedding ring at a gathering and
matters escalated when Banderas was sighted reveling amorously with numerous
ladies in Cancun and later with Indian starlet Mallika Sherawat at Cannes. It appears, however, that the
couple has refuted the allegations and is doing their utmost to salvage their
marriage.
c) Miranda Kerr and Orlando Bloom: There
was heightened buzz about the young couple heading for a marriage split when
both the stars were seen without their wedding rings. What also added to the
gossip was news of their frustration with their flagging careers and negative statements
made by their close acquaintances. Their film agent has recently branded the
divorce claims as misleading and erroneous but this has not stopped further
speculation.
So there it is. It seems that as long as celebrity frenzy
exists, marriage and divorce chitchat will continue to be conversation starters
in the roller-coaster world that is Hollywood.
