The Sling Blade star collects brides like he does acting awards. Divorced five times, his former wives include, most notably, Angelina Jolie (who could forget those romantic vials of blood they wore?), and Playboy playmate Pietra Dawn Cherniak.

 

Married three times and divorced twice, the former House speaker admitted that he cheated on his second wife, Marianne, “while leading the impeachment proceedings against President Clinton for allegations of perjury involving the Paula Jones sexual harassment civil case and the president's affair with Monica Lewinsky,” ABC News reports. Gingrich has been married to Callista since 2000.

 

Divorced four times, the Oscar-winning director includes Isabella Rossellini among his ex-wives. He’s been married to Helen Morris, a book editor, since 1999.

 

“I'm the only man in the world with a marriage license made out to whom it may concern,” Mickey Rooney has quipped. Too bad he ain’t kidding. The actor has been divorced seven – seven! – times, including one year spent betrothed to Ava Gardner back in 1942. He finally found the one, though: He’s been married to Jan Chamberlin since 1978.

When Ol’ Blue Eyes sang about love and marriage, he knew what he was talkin’ about. The legend was wed four times; Ava Gardner and Mia Farrow are among his exes. He married Barbara Marx (she had been married to Zeppo) in 1976, and they stayed together until his death in 1998.

 

That whole marrying your 13-year-old cousin (OK, OK, so it was once removed) is the first thing most people think of when they hear “marriage” and “Jerry Lee Lewis,” but she was just one of a string of brides for the legendary musician. Myra Gale Brown was marriage number three, lasting 13 years. Before her, he was already twice-divorced (he was just 14 when he married his first wife!). His next two wives died from accidents while married to him and his most recent marriage lasted 20 years before the couple divorced. Great balls of marital fire, indeed.
