Admit it, you love a good celebrity infidelity story like the rest of us. The scandals tend to spill across magazine covers, fill endless gossip blogs, and are the topic of speculation and discussion for months when they break. The past year has been big for high profile affairs, but did they make the list for the biggest (and dumbest) famous clandestine fumbles? Read on to find out …
5. Jesse James and Sandra Bullock
It is still fresh on everyone’s mind, and with Sandy just announcing her divorce after only five years of marriage to Jesse James, it is a big story. But it has been made bigger by certain provocative elements. First, she find out that the mistress is a fetish model who used the exposure like a ladder, and who caused an uproar when photos of her dressed as a Nazi came to light. Then, we found out Sandy and Jesse adopted a baby, who the actress is raising on her own.
4. Josh Duhamel and Fergie
Fergie Ferg is well known for being outrageous and sexually liberated. But her man managed to outdo even her after it came out that he might have banged a stripper and mother of two. She came out with the story and guns blazing, and while Fergie stood by her man it became obvious to everyone that this is likely more than a rumor.
3. Mel Gibson and Robyn Gibson
Mel Gibson has raised a lot of eyebrows in recent years. From racist tirades to establishing his own church with stringent rules that he himself breaks, he is questionable on a lot of fronts. But everyone was still shocked when he left his wife of 28 years for his mistress half his age. Not only that, but he got her pregnant, and now it has come out he may have cheater on her with a Polish pornstar.
2. John Edwards and Elizabeth Edwards
The details of this affair are long, shocking, and show an incredible lack of integrity. Not only did Edwards cheat of a wife who was dying of cancer, but he father a child, tried to get his aide to take the fall, bought her a mansion, and then admitted the little girl was his after years of public denial that would follow her the rest of her life.
1. Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren
This is a no brainer. The Tiger Woods scandal hit the world like a force of nature, and it has continued even after months of apologies, mistresses coming forward, and a stint in rehab. What made this such a shocker was two fold. First, it was Tiger Woods, and his family man image and honest smile was a trademark that was exploited by all of his endorsers. Second, there were the ridiculous numbers of women coming forward that said they had had a turn with his golf club.
It is unlikely that any celebrity cheating scandal will be able to top off his score.
