When famous people get married, it seems like people immediately take bets on how long it will last. And with the super-short marriages of Britney Spears and Jason Alexander, Renee Zellweger and Kenny Chesney, and Pam Anderson and Kid Rock... well, I guess maybe people aren't too optimistic that Hollywood marriages are going to be anything long-term.

Cyd and Tony also had a son, Tony Martin, Jr.
3. Bill and Camille Cosby - 44 years. If you're like me, you can't hear the name "Camille" in conjunction with Bill Cosby and not think about him saying her name. Or maybe I'm just thinking about Kenan Thompson's impression of Bill on Saturday Night Live. Anyway, Bill met Camille in the 60s when he was working in D.C., doing his stand-up act. She was a student at the University of Maryland at the time. They got married in 1964 and had five kids.

He even played her husband in 2003's It Runs in the Family.
8. James Garner and Lois Clarke - 52 years. James and Lois met at an Adlai Stevenson rally in 1956.

Clarke has a daughter from her previous marriage.
