What happens in Vegas ... often results in a divorce not too much later, at least in the case of these nine celebrity couples rounded up by Radar:

  • Mia Farrow and Frank Sinatra: They wed in Sin City in 1966 when Farrow was 21 and Sinatra was 50. They divorced two years later.
  • Cher and Gregg Allman: She filed for divorce just nine days after they married in 1975, but they ended up staying together another two years.

  • Eddie Fisher and Elizabeth Taylor: He became her fourth husband in 1959, but they divorced five years later.
  • Richard Gere and Cindy Crawford: They wed in 1991, when he was 42 and she was 25, and Crawford later blamed their age difference for the fact that their union only lasted three years.
  • Angelina Jolie and Billy Bob Thornton: They wed in Vegas in 2000, and stayed married just two years.
Click for the complete list, including one couple who divorced after five months—only to get back together years later. (More Mia Farrow stories.)
