Odd Couples

Celebrity Odd Couples

Gary Coleman & Shannon Price
Status: Were married for less than a year
Fact: Appeared on Divorce Court to duke it out in front of Judge Lynn Toler.
Odd Credentials: Aside from Coleman being very short and very old and Price as very young and taller, this couple is far from normal. Nine months after their marriage, Coleman admitted he was still a virgin. Price apparently refused to give up the goods even after they wed. This couple sure has some issues to work out.

Kelly sure wanted to keep his relationship with this youngster on the down low.

R.Kelly & Aaliyah
Fact: Aaliyah was R. Kelly's protégé and the two knew each other since she was 12.
Status: Reportedly married but later annulled.
Oddball Credentials: Aside from being very illegal, it was extremely odd that Kelly, 27 at the time, would get involved with a minor--oh wait I take that back. Age ain't nothing but a number but regardless, this sure doesn't fly.

Flava Flav
We'll be honest. Any person linked to Flav is odd but this relationship surely tops the list.

Bobby & Whitney [in the beginning]
Status: Married for 15 years
Fact: The couple has a daughter together named Bobbi Kristina Houston Brown. Now that's a mouthful.
Odd Credentials: Bobby had numerous run ins with the law as well as three kids and Whitney was one of America's sweethearts. People were shocked when these two 'opposites' came together. However later down the road we realized the two had more in common than we thought.
