Spendy Celebrity Weddings Trivia Quiz

Answer: Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman

Urban, the heartthrob Australian country singer, had his third #1 Billboard hit with 2002's "You'll Think of Me", and it won him his first Grammy. Kidman is also Australian, though she was born in Hawaii (her family returned Down Under when Nicole was four). She starred in 1995's "To Die For", and won a Golden Globe for her performance. That wedding dress of hers cost $20,000.

Answer: David Beckham and Victoria Adams

Adams was Posh Spice, Becks was one of the most popular footballers in the world, and their wedding reception employed 437 staff members. Two of the couple's sons (Brooklyn and Romeo) boast Sir Elton John as godfather and Elizabeth Hurley as godmother.

Answer: Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston

Pitt appeared in Aniston's hit show "Friends" in Season 8, after they had been married for a little more than a year. Unfortunately, even $300,000 worth of bubbly and boiled crustacean couldn't keep the marriage intact. The two divorced in 2006.

Answer: Madonna

Madonna (star of 1987's "Who's That Girl?") married Guy Ritchie (director of 2000's "Snatch") in a modest, million-and-a-half dollar wedding. They spent $800,000 on food and Champagne and $200,000 dollars on fireworks. Eight years later, the fireworks were over and they divorced.

Answer: Tiger Woods

Woods met Elin Nordegren in 2001, when she was working as an au pair for fellow golfer Jesper Parnevik. In 2007 Elin gave birth to daughter Sam, and son Charlie showed up in 2009. In between, Tiger found time to earn $110 million in 2008, making him the highest-paid athlete of the year. The 'grrreat' was just a little tiger hint for all of you who've seen Frosted Flakes commercials.

Answer: Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones

The couple probably has a pretty big mantle--she's got an Oscar for her role in 2002's "Chicago" and he's got two of his own, for producing "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" in 1975 and for acting in "Wall Street" in 1987. Zeta-Jones also starred in 1999's "Entrapment".

Answer: Elton John and David Furnish

John (born Reginald Dwight) had been previously married, to Renate Blauel, for four years, but after they divorced he came out as gay. "Rocket Man" ("I Think It's Going to Be a Long, Long Time") hit #6 on the American charts in 1972, and was partially based on the Ray Bradbury story "The Rocket Man". Furnish, a former filmmaker (he directed the documentary "Elton John: Tantrums & Tiaras"), is now a board member of the Elton John AIDS Foundation.

Answer: Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes

Holmes and Cruise each wore Armani, and their rings were Cartier. Andrea Bocelli sang at the reception, and the couple honeymooned in the Maldives. Earlier in 2006, daughter Suri had come along (and was promptly dubbed 'TomKitten' by the press). Cruise starred in 1983's "All the Right Moves" and over twenty of his movies have earned over a hundred million dollars. Holmes acted on television's "Dawson Creek" and was Bruce Wayne's love interest in 2005's "Batman Begins".

Answer: Sir Paul McCartney and Heather Mills

The couple spent $150,000 on fireworks and $145,000 on flowers, and the bride's gown cost $40,000. Ms. Mills was married to Sir Paul when he turned 64 in 2006 (no word on whether she still needed him or fed him, sent him a Valentine, birthday greetings or a bottle of wine), but the duo divorced in 2008.

In the Beatles' 1968 song "Glass Onion", one of the lyrics was "the walrus was Paul", and in 2007 Mills appeared on "Dancing With the Stars" (in case you were wondering about my hints in the question).

Answer: David Gest and Liza Minnelli

Minnelli won an Oscar for her role as Sally Bowles in 1972's "Cabaret" (though it was actually co-star Joel Grey who wished everyone 'wilkommen'), and Gest is a music producer who was childhood friends with the Jackson 5. Their marriage lasted just a year and three months, which means they were married about a day and a quarter for every hundred thousand dollars they spent on the wedding.
