Forgotten Famous Hookups That Might Surprise You

Ashley Olsen and Lance Armstrong

In 2007, the rather unlikely pairing of Ashley Olsen and Lance Armstrong set tongues wagging when the two were spotted “making out” in the bar of a New York hotel. At 15 years Lance’s junior though, Ashley soon moved on after a few months to The Hangover’s Justin Bartha.

In a 2008 interview, self-proclaimed nerd Moby let slip that he had shared a brief dalliance with now-happily-engaged Natalie Portman. He explained: “I guess in some people’s eyes, [nerds] might be mildly sexy – and, as a nerd, I’m certainly happy to enjoy some of the effects of that. But as far as the very brief affair that I had with Natalie, it’s made me a target of a lot of nerd wrath. You don’t date Luke Skywalker’s mom and not have them hate your guts.”

In 2000, George Clooney and Lucy Liu were rumored to be dating, though neither confirmed the relationship. Five years later, the pair got the rumour-mill back into overdrive when they reportedly rekindled their romance for the night, after being spotted sharing a romantic dinner and then leaving together in a limo. A witness said of Lucy: “She looked like she was going to devour him.” Ooh-er matron!

You certainly can’t accuse Brooke Shields of having a type… Back in the 80s, the actress dated Nicolas Cage, and the pair went public at the New York premiere of his 1987 film Moonstruck. The couple split in 1988, after a year of dating.
