1
00:00:00.150 --> 00:00:01.940
- They fell in love very quickly,

2
00:00:01.940 --> 00:00:03.480
but they did it all in the public eye,

3
00:00:03.480 --> 00:00:05.000
which is probably hell for them

4
00:00:05.000 --> 00:00:08.110
but really fabulous for the
rest of us who love mess

5
00:00:08.110 --> 00:00:10.710
or at least are just
fascinated by this kind of,

6
00:00:10.710 --> 00:00:13.040
I don't even wanna say trainwreck,
'cause that feels rude,

7
00:00:13.040 --> 00:00:14.390
so I'll just say shit show.

8
00:00:14.390 --> 00:00:17.540
(upbeat music)

9
00:00:17.540 --> 00:00:19.530
It has been a very long year,

10
00:00:19.530 --> 00:00:21.510
but it has been an even longer decade,

11
00:00:21.510 --> 00:00:23.730
so Jezebel has decided to take a look back

12
00:00:23.730 --> 00:00:26.530
at the decade in celebrity breakups.

13
00:00:26.530 --> 00:00:30.740
Love is alive sometimes,
but most often it is dead.

14
00:00:30.740 --> 00:00:33.500
- So the first break up
that really shook the decade

15
00:00:33.500 --> 00:00:36.980
was, of course, Zac Efron
and Vanessa Hudgens,

16
00:00:36.980 --> 00:00:39.850
the OG Disney couple from
"High School Musical."

17
00:00:39.850 --> 00:00:44.080
I just remember thinking this
was the Justin Timberlake

18
00:00:44.080 --> 00:00:46.670
and Britney Spears of my time.

19
00:00:46.670 --> 00:00:49.300
Troy and Gabriella came out of the TV

20
00:00:49.300 --> 00:00:52.540
and I wanted a
shaggy-haired boy of my own.

21
00:00:52.540 --> 00:00:55.940
- Heidi Klum and Seal
got together in 2004.

22
00:00:55.940 --> 00:00:58.750
She was pregnant with her daughter

23
00:00:58.750 --> 00:01:02.040
by another man, Flavio Briatore.

24
00:01:02.040 --> 00:01:04.760
Don't know who that guy is,
but good bye to that man.

25
00:01:04.760 --> 00:01:06.777
Then she met Seal and she was like,

26
00:01:06.777 --> 00:01:09.197
"Oh shit, you're wearing bike shorts.

27
00:01:09.197 --> 00:01:10.310
"I can see the D."

28
00:01:10.310 --> 00:01:11.380
And they got married,

29
00:01:11.380 --> 00:01:14.330
began renewing their wedding
vows every single year.

30
00:01:14.330 --> 00:01:16.620
They totally became that couple

31
00:01:16.620 --> 00:01:19.000
and their friends probably
found them deeply annoying.

32
00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:21.050
They did seem like they were
gonna be together forever,

33
00:01:21.050 --> 00:01:24.360
which actually kind of goes
to show that those couples

34
00:01:24.360 --> 00:01:27.070
who project their eternal love,

35
00:01:27.070 --> 00:01:29.530
it's not sustainable, I'm sorry.

36
00:01:29.530 --> 00:01:31.820
- When Gwyneth and Chris broke up,

37
00:01:31.820 --> 00:01:34.810
they didn't, like, break up,
they consciously uncoupled.

38
00:01:34.810 --> 00:01:37.570
I think for a while in 2014
when they did break up,

39
00:01:37.570 --> 00:01:40.097
it was funny or cool to say,

40
00:01:40.097 --> 00:01:42.397
"I consciously uncoupled from this job.

41
00:01:42.397 --> 00:01:47.147
"I consciously uncoupled from
that person on the subway

42
00:01:47.147 --> 00:01:49.580
"who smells weird and I
don't wanna talk to them."

43
00:01:49.580 --> 00:01:52.800
It's nice that they gave us a
way to talk about breaking up

44
00:01:52.800 --> 00:01:55.590
that is new agey and gross.

45
00:01:55.590 --> 00:01:58.010
- There can only be one Bennifer

46
00:01:58.010 --> 00:02:00.490
and it is Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez.

47
00:02:00.490 --> 00:02:04.080
But then, Ben decided to give
it a go with another Jennifer,

48
00:02:04.080 --> 00:02:06.950
Jennifer Garner, Bennifer 2.0.

49
00:02:06.950 --> 00:02:09.050
Or, as I like to call them, Jaflac.

50
00:02:09.050 --> 00:02:10.590
They had a happy little family,

51
00:02:10.590 --> 00:02:12.750
as photographed by LA paparazzi.

52
00:02:12.750 --> 00:02:14.970
But then, in 2015,

53
00:02:14.970 --> 00:02:17.140
they announced that they
were getting a divorce.

54
00:02:17.140 --> 00:02:21.250
More importantly is how Ben
reacted to them breaking up,

55
00:02:21.250 --> 00:02:24.420
which is by getting a giant back tattoo.

56
00:02:24.420 --> 00:02:25.410
- It's like a--

57
00:02:25.410 --> 00:02:27.470
- It's a phoenix, it's phoenix which--

58
00:02:27.470 --> 00:02:28.690
- Rising from your ass.

59
00:02:28.690 --> 00:02:31.740
- The single most iconic divorced dad move

60
00:02:31.740 --> 00:02:33.740
that has even done.

61
00:02:33.740 --> 00:02:35.540
- Brad and Angelina met

62
00:02:35.540 --> 00:02:37.760
while they were filming
"Mr. & Mrs. Smith."

63
00:02:37.760 --> 00:02:39.890
At the time, Jennifer
Aniston and Brad Pitt

64
00:02:39.890 --> 00:02:41.020
were still married.

65
00:02:41.020 --> 00:02:42.610
There was a lot of painting of Angelina

66
00:02:42.610 --> 00:02:46.670
as this person who stole Brad
away from Jennifer Aniston.

67
00:02:46.670 --> 00:02:50.500
Brangelia, to me, was like
the second coming of Bennifer.

68
00:02:50.500 --> 00:02:52.310
It was just kind of like
this perfect pairing

69
00:02:52.310 --> 00:02:54.760
of two super high-profile stars.

70
00:02:54.760 --> 00:02:58.940
I think when Angelina
filed for divorce in 2016

71
00:02:58.940 --> 00:03:00.650
people kind of saw it coming

72
00:03:00.650 --> 00:03:04.330
because there were reports
about them being on the rocks.

73
00:03:04.330 --> 00:03:06.000
There was still kind of like a sense

74
00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:07.920
that they would stay
together for the family

75
00:03:07.920 --> 00:03:09.980
and that it was kind of
like these two big stars

76
00:03:09.980 --> 00:03:13.823
who kind of had a Hollywood
contract-type relationship.

77
00:03:14.810 --> 00:03:18.020
- Liam Hemsworth and Miley Cyrus,

78
00:03:18.020 --> 00:03:21.010
former Hannah Montana, current whatever,

79
00:03:21.010 --> 00:03:23.350
they've been dating on and
off for the entire decade,

80
00:03:23.350 --> 00:03:25.200
which is a feat in and of itself.

81
00:03:25.200 --> 00:03:29.340
They got married in a secret
wedding in December of 2018,

82
00:03:29.340 --> 00:03:30.520
but the announcement of the divorce,

83
00:03:30.520 --> 00:03:34.030
which was issued by Miley
really caught Liam off-guard.

84
00:03:34.030 --> 00:03:35.820
It would be fun if they got back together

85
00:03:35.820 --> 00:03:38.560
because maybe Miley will move to Australia

86
00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:40.050
and do what I've been asking,

87
00:03:40.050 --> 00:03:45.050
which is make a country covers
album of old country music

88
00:03:45.050 --> 00:03:48.220
and Liam can, again, surf some more

89
00:03:48.220 --> 00:03:51.130
and they can live on a
ranch and do what I imagine

90
00:03:51.130 --> 00:03:53.610
Nicole Kidman and Keith
Urban wish they could do.

91
00:03:53.610 --> 00:03:56.330
- For me, it's like, Will
Smith and Jada Pinkett,

92
00:03:56.330 --> 00:03:57.460
Barack and Michelle.

93
00:03:57.460 --> 00:03:58.880
If those couples broke up,

94
00:03:58.880 --> 00:04:01.063
it would be like, "The world is over."
