Actress Weds Musician: A Formula for Divorce

3. Halle Berry and Eric Benét

This one made headlines more recently but caused such a commotion, despite Benét's lower profile. The uncommonly beautiful Berry married the singer in 2001 and even adopted his daughter, India. They were a gorgeous couple, but Benét had a secret: He was a sex addict. Thanks to his indiscretion, countless unfaithful partners and spouses are now seeking treatment for their medical inclination to cheat on their significant others. The pair divorced in 2005; another case of deceit, but mainly of mistaken identity. If she knew, maybe she thought she could fix him, as all women have a soft spot for bad boys.

There are other casualties in the actress/musician marriage world. Lest we forget the up-and-down love affair of Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee. The allure of money, fame and a whirlwind romance are all reasons women love rockers, but what drives them apart is always the same: Lies. We can only hope the new generation of rock star wives like Zooey Deschanel (married to Death Cab for Cutie'sBen Gibbard), Carey Mulligan (married to Mumford & Sons' Marcus Mumford) and Gwyneth Paltrow (married to Coldplay's Chris Martin) fair better. Do you think these unions will last?
