3. Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake

Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake had a high profile relationship when they had their first taste of success. It was a pretty carefree time for the two as they were able to do whatever they wanted. “We could literally go, ‘Oh, man, let’s go to Bali,’ and we’d be on a plane to Bali. We were little kids with big toys. You do the math – that’s not going to last,” Timberlake said. Unfortunately, the level of fame these two experienced ultimately had a hand in the fate of their relationship. The two split in 2002 following a series of rumors claiming Britney had cheated on Justin.
