On any given day, you will see at least 5 weird celeb couples.  Flipping through any celebrity magazine, you are bound to find at least ten that fit the description of weird.  Although there are many, many couples out there that could make the list, we have whittled the list down to five:

  1. Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony.  Many were surprised when the beautiful Jennifer Lopez tied the knot with singer Marc Anthony.  Rumors started to swirl soon after their nuptials.  Although many bets had them breaking up within a year, the couple has been married since June 2004 and have a set of twins.  Anthony's Edward Cullen-like presence around Lopez puts them on the list of weird celeb couples.
  2. Janet Jackson and Jermaine Dupri.  The on-again, off-again couple of Janet Jackson and Jermaine Dupri make the list of weird celeb couples for obvious reasons.  Jackson had been the object of many male fantasies for years when the public learned of her relationship with Dupri.  The short, odd-lookiing Dupri seemed like the last person on earth she would choose.  Although the couple claims to be off-again, chances are it won't last long.
  3. Natalie Portman and Devendra Banhart.  It's hard to find a starting point for listing the painfully obvious reasons that Natalie Portman and Devendra Banhart are a weird celeb couple.  Portman has the "girl next door" vibe going on, while Banhart looks like the crazy guy in the cul-de-sac that everyone avoids.  Maybe underneath all that facial hair there is a reasonably sane chap, but appearances would strongly suggest otherwise.
  4. Paulia Porizkova and Ric Ocasek.  Who knows what was going through Paulia Porizkova's head when she met Ric Ocasek.  Maybe it was the theme song from "Beauty and the Beast."  Whatever it was, this couple is definitely one of the top weird celeb couples.
  5. Debora Lee Furness and Hugh Jackman.  Although Debora Lee Furness is not an unattractive woman, she pales in comparison to her husband Hugh Jackman.  Unfortunately, Furness looks like Jackman's mother or aunt when they are together.

There are many more weird celeb couples that could have easily made the list.  Anyone who dates Billy Bob Thornton or Marilyn Manson automatically qualifies.
