41 Celebrity Couples You Forgot Were Once a Thing

Vogue's nostalgic slideshow revisits 41 celebrity couples from the 1990s and early 2000s, highlighting relationships that have faded from public memory. The list includes Cindy Crawford and Richard Gere, who eloped in Las Vegas in 1991; Val Kilmer and Cher, who dated in the early 1980s; and Cameron Diaz and Matt Dillon, who were together from January 1996 to September 1998. Other notable pairings include Madonna and Tupac Shakur, who met at the 1993 Soul Train Music Awards; Tom Cruise and Cher, who met at Sean Penn and Madonna's wedding in 1985; and Julia Roberts and Matthew Perry, who dated after meeting on the set of Friends in 1996. The slideshow also features Keira Knightley and Jamie Dornan (2003–2005), Ryan Reynolds and Alanis Morissette (engaged in 2004, broke up in 2006), and Jennifer Garner and Scott Foley (married 2000–2003). More recent couples include Aubrey Plaza and Michael Cera, who dated for a year and a half after meeting on the set of Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, and Katie Holmes and Jamie Foxx, who were rumored to be together for six years. The article includes quotes from celebrities about their relationships, such as Cher calling Kilmer a "funny, crazy, pain in the ass" and Jennifer Aniston describing Vince Vaughn as her "defibrillator" after her divorce from Brad Pitt. The piece is a lighthearted look at pop culture history, driven by 1990s and early 2000s nostalgia on social media.
