Oh, Singers Who've Dated Their Backup Dancers


They've Got the Moves
Jennifer Lopez is a repeat offender while Britney Spears and Ashley Tisdale seem to be over their backup dancer phases. Check out more sexy ladies who've hooked up with their dancers ahead.


1. Jennifer Lopez
Jennifer Lopez loves her some backup dancers. The singer married Cris Judd in 2001 and they divorced less than a year later. She managed to stay married to Marc Anthony for seven years before hooking up with her next dancing dude. She and 24-year-old Casper Smart got together shortly after she announced her divorce in late 2011. They've since starred in a steamy music video together and show no signs of cooling off.


2. Christina Aguilera
Back in Christina Aguilera's "Dirrty" phase, she dated Jorge Santos for two years. Professionally, he starred in a couple of her music videos. Personally, he was her first love. "I'd never even had a huge crush on a guy before. Then it just happened, on tour. We were dancing together, spending a lot of time together, and we fell in love," she explained after their 2001 breakup.


3. Ashley Tisdale
Ashley Tisdale fell for a dancer named Jared Murillo back in 2007, when she was in the midst of her High School Musical phase. Murillo danced in the movie and concert installments of the Disney production and even busted some moves in Tisdale's solo music videos. They called it quits in 2009.


4. Miley Cyrus
Back before Liam Hemsworth stole Miley Cyrus' heart, she briefly dated a backup dancer named Marshall. He was 22 and she was 15 at the time. She was still Hannah Montana to her fans, so you can imagine how her people might have steered her away from the older boys back then.


5. Britney Spears
Britney Spears fell hard and fast for Kevin Federline back in 2004. They made it down the aisle and had two kids and a reality show together before deciding to call it quits. These days, Federline no longer dances and is the proud father of five. Brit fell for her manager and is about to go for her second marriage (well, third, if you want to get technical).


6. Melanie Brown
Melanie Brown spiced up her life with dancer Jimmy Gulzar back in the '90s, when the Spice World Tour was in full swing. They got hitched in 1998 and made headlines two years later when they divorced and went through a bitter custody battle over their daughter. Fun Fact: The singer changed her stage name from Mel B. to Mel G. during their brief marriage.


7. LeAnn Rimes
LeAnn Rimes met her future husband in 2001 when Dean Sheremet put on his best moves while she sang at the Academy of Country Music Awards. The pair wound up getting married a year later and lasted until 2009, when Rimes fell for her Northern Lights co-star Eddie Cibrian. Sheremet is now a chef.


8. Madonna
Madonna doesn't seem to care what her boyfriends do for a living, so long as they're about half her age. The singer went from dating a 20-something underwear model to dating Brahim Zaibat, her 24-year-old backup dancer, in early 2011. He choreographed and danced in her Sticky and Sweet tour.


9. Geri Halliwell
Word has it Geri Halliwell dumped her backup dancer beau, Ivan Velez, over the phone after a six-month relationship. Apparently the distance was just too much after the Spice Girls Reunion Tour came to a close in late 2008.

Youngest Celebrity Brides - These gals said "I do" before turning 25


Baby Brides
Some stars never want to get married, others wait decades to make completely sure they've picked the right partner. These gals, on the other hand, sprinted down the aisle before turning 25. Check out the nuptials that lasted and didn't, and discover which actress married the same guy for the second time in her 30s!


1. Megan Fox: 24
Miss Megan Fox was just 18 when she began dating former Beverly Hills 90210 actor Brian Austin Green. They went through a series of breakups before finally committing for the long haul in June, 2010. So far, so good!


2. Jessica Simpson: 22
Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey were one of the cutest couples in Hollywood back when they were newlyweds in 2003. Ms. Simpson was 22 when they said "I do," and was divorced by the time she turned 25. They had an awesomely bad reality TV show in between.


3. Ashlee Simpson: 23
The junior Simpson sister also married young. Ashlee and Pete Wentz tied the knot at the Simpson family home in Encino, Calif. in 2008. They announced the singer's pregnancy two weeks after the nuptials. They filed for divorce in February, 2011.


4. Britney Spears: 24
Britney Spears got married twice before the age of 25, though only one wedding really counted. She and pal Jason Alexander were hitched for like five minutes after a rowdy trip to Las Vegas in 2004, then she married dancer Kevin Federline for real later that year. She was a divorced mom of two by 24. Spears has decided to give marriage a third shot with former agent Jason Trawick.


5. Courtney Stodden: 16
Courtney Stodden and her overly-suggestive Twitter feed became quite popular in 2011, after the 16-year-old married 51-year-old occasional actor Doug Hutchison. Stodden's mom had to sign off on the marriage.


6. Reese Witherspoon: 24
Reese Witherspoon met first husband Ryan Phillippe at her 21st birthday party in 1997. The story goes: He walked in, she introduced herself and said, "I think you're my birthday present." (Insert joke of choice here.) The gorgeous blondes walked down the aisle three years later and divorced in 2006, after having two kids together.


7. Drew Barrymore: 19
Get this: Drew Barrymore is on her fifth engagement, as of January 2012. She got her first diamond ring at 16, another at about 18, and actually made it down the aisle with a third suitor, Jeremy Thomas, at 19. They filed for divorce two months later. The actress lasted a little longer with second husband Tom Green: five months! Hopefully her soon-to-be third husband, Will Kopelman, will be the charm.


8. Melanie Griffith: 18
Melanie Griffith has been happily married to Antonio Banderas for 15 years now, but her first trip down the aisle was with Don Johnson at the age of 18. They'd been dating for four years, but divorced after just six months. They got hitched again when Griffith was in her 30s and had a daughter before calling it quits for good, this time after seven years of wedded bliss.


9. LeAnn Rimes: 19
LeAnn Rimes fell for backup dancer Dean Sheremet in 2001 and married him a year later, at the age of 19. After a brutal affair scandal, their divorce was finalized in 2010. She's since married Eddie Cibrian.


10. Hilary Duff: 22
Hilary Duff became a wife at 22 and will become a mom before she turns 25. The actress married hockey player Mike Comrie in 2010 and they announced the blonde's pregnancy the weekend of their third anniversary.


11. Bo Derek: 18
Here's a wild story: Budding actress Bo Derek (who went by her given name, Mary Cathleen Collins, at the time) met director John Derek at the age of 16. In order to avoid being caught up in statutory rape laws, since John was 30 years her senior, the couple fled to Germany for two years -- until just after the blonde's 18th birthday. They married in 1976 and lasted until John's death in 1998.


12. Avril Lavigne: 21
Two of the most popular combat boot-wearing celebs around entered into holy matrimony back in 2001. Avril Lavigne was 21 at the time, so she was able to enjoy the fancy cocktails served at their 2006 wedding. The couple made it three years before calling it quits. They're still friends, though.


13. Rachel Miner: 17
Rachel Miner and Macauley Culkin decided in 1998, at 17, that marriage was for them. Turns out, it wasn't. The couple separated in 2000 and officially divorced in 2002. Not long after that Culkin started dating actress Mila Kunis and Miner dyed her hair blond.


14. Kate Hudson: 21
This celebrity odd couple got hitched in 2000, when Kate Hudson was 21. She and Black Crowes rocker Chris Robinson went on to have a son together before splitting in 2006. The actress has since moved on with another rocker: Matt Bellamy of Muse. They had a baby in 2011 and are expected to marry in the near future.
