9. Liza Minnelli and David Gest
Liza Minnelli‘s life has been a bit of a train wreck, with the former actress and singer consumed with addiction problems. When she announced an upcoming marriage with David Gest though, she seemed genuinely happy and excited. That puzzled everyone else because Gest was allegedly gay. Did any one think this marriage would work? Minnelli’s friends and relatives hoped Gest would stabilize her day to day routine; Gest maybe wanted to hide his alleged sexual preference. Only Minnelli seemed to actually go into the marriage for the right reasons. Of course the marriage fell apart almost immediately, but due to Minnelli’s alleged physical abuse of the groom. Maybe we were all wrong about Gest, but the circus of the wedding (Michael Jackson as the best man) made the whole affair feel like a sham.
