Hollywood duos

The 10 power couples that have it all.

- By KENNETH CHAW

acrobat of all time - Ellen DeGeneres is always on my list — doesn’t matter what the list it about. the couple is Hollywood’s symbol of love equality.

5. Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton

In the united states, country music makes a tonne of ka-ching. And miranda Lambert and Blake shelton are hitting the right notes, nabbing nearly 60 awards between the two.

6. Faith Hill and Tim McGraw

Before there were the mirandas and the Blakes, Faith Hill and tim mcGraw were the golden couple in country music - and still is. they have been together for close to 18 years now. It’s nice to see a couple who still holds fast to their traditiona­l southern values.

7. Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale

she’s still got it and he ... well, he has her.

8. Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt

Who doesn’t love a couple who not only earns a lot but gives back as well? In fact, Pitt and Jolie are known more for the serious cash they give away than the ones they earn. Besides adopting three children (that costs some serious life-long expenditur­e there), Pitt gave a whopping us$16mil (Rm53mil) away to aid the Hurricane Katrina-hit New Orleans and Brangelina also contribute­d us$8mil (Rm26.7mil) to their charitable foundation, the Jolie Pitt Foundation.

And it looks like the couple still has plenty more to give away, with Jolie’s lead role in the highly-anticipate­d Maleficent and Pitt’s executive producer credit for 12 Years A Slave, an Oscar Best Picture top contender. And as they say, the true measure of one’s wealth is not how much you earn but how much you can afford to give away. Oh and of course, it doesn’t hurt that both of them are ridiculous­ly good-looking.

9. Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin

Chris martin singing “look at the stars / look how they shine for you” as Gwyneth Paltrow lays her head on his shoulder. I go to bed every night with this in mind. true love exists.

10. Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban

And it exists even between the most unlikely pairings.
