Crash Course Weddings

Do they really work?

by S.K. Smith

I don't know about you, but the last time I had a scorching-hot chemistry connection on (I don't know, say…) a second date, I didn't run off and tie the knot! Not so for a whole host of celebs like reality star Khloe Kardashian and Laker basketball player Lamar Odom... Their surprise spur-of-the-moment nuptials (they'd only been dating a month!) recently took the tabloids by storm. But can these crash-course weddings indicate a real, lasting love?

Let's have a look at the prognosis on the fate of celebrity couples who fell into love and marriage (almost) overnight!

Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon
Okay, so 18 months is hardly a lifetime - but when it comes to the fabulously famous, that year and a half really means something. Take pop-diva superstar Mariah Carey (an Aries) and her luscious Libran lifemate Nick Cannon. The odds were stacked against their love when they tied the knot unexpectedly in May 2008, following a two-month courtship. For starters, Carey had long been rumored to be "complicated," and with 10 years separating them (Nick just turned 29), skeptics took the wedding for another mad-cap Mariah spectacle. So far however, this Fire-Air combo has proven everyone wrong. And with the stars in their favor, it's no wonder. Warm, romantic Libra gives action-driven Aries a place to call home. The prognosis? This could just be happily ever after…

Mandy Moore and Ryan Adams
Actress/singer/former teen queen Mandy Moore married alt-rock musician Ryan Adams in a private, last-minute ceremony in Georgia this past March after a month-long engagement. While Moore has been known for a tumultuous love life (her exes include Wilmer Valderrama, Andy Roddick and Zach Braff), her now-hubby broke things off with her for a month or so last summer (reportedly because he felt insecure about her fame). If this pair keeps out of the spotlight, they might just stand the test of time. After all, Moore's a fiery, determined Aries and Adams is a sensitive, yet soulful Scorpio - which can indicate a difficult, but meaningful, match. If they don't crack each other's skulls while banging heads, they may just balance each other out! We'll see what happens.

Carmen Electra and Dennis Rodman
It may have been 11 years ago now, but who can forget the impetuous marriage between Chicago Bulls basketball star Dennis Rodman and pin-up poster girl (and Baywatch babe) Carmen Electra in 1998? Trouble was, there were too many bulls in their relationship (and I don't mean the basketball team)! These two Taureans were drawn to each other by their sensual similarities, but the foot-plus height difference wasn't the only thing was stacked against them. Logic, for starters, foretold trouble when Rodman filed for an annulment 9 days after the wedding- on the grounds that he had been intoxicated at the ceremony! Keep in mind this is the man who, in 1996, married himself! The verdict? Even stars need their feet on the ground when they enter into a commitment… especially if they're Earth signs!

The verdict? You might know from the very start that "this is the one." But it never hurts to hang on just a bit longer... and try to be sure of it.
