Britney’s 55 hours, Kim’s marriage a lifetime
Seventy-two days can be a long time for marriages in tinsel town.
Kim Kardashian's split from NBA player husband Kris Humphries has once again reminded us that celebs have a completely different take on weddings.

Kim’s take was $25 million for a coverage and media rights to the ceremony and allied earnings.
A whirlwind romance, followed by a whirlwind wedding followed by a whirlwind divorce.
Kim and Chris were not the first, and are unlikely to be the last.
Here’s a look at some other short-lived celeb weddings:

The New York Daily News lists Anderson and Rock as one of the shortest marriages in Hollywood. The former Baywatch star and rocker were married four months before Anderson filed for divorce.
Charlie Sheen and Donna Peele

Before his recent headline-making behavior, Sheen married Peele, a model, in 1995 after just dating for six weeks. It comes as no surprise that the marriage ended after five months.
Jennifer Lopez and Cris Judd

This marriage ended after only nine months, when Judd learned (from the tabloids) that Lopez was dating Ben Affleck.
Michael Jackson and Lisa Marie Presley

A kiss on MTV at the awards and 20 months together (or not). Irreconcilable differences cited.
