Most famous stars want to be known for their exceptional skills and performances, but sometimes it depends on who they are dating and when they are dating them. Social media is always thrown into a wild frenzy when two great stars get together in a relationship.

Every glimpse and picture of the couple will be eagerly awaited throughout social media and our news feeds. The "Hollywood Curse," on the other hand, ensures that love affairs in the City of Dreams do not stand the test of time.

How about the drama between Bella Hadid and our favorite Canadian artiste, The Weeknd? The sad trend reminded us of times when some of our other favorite celebrity couples used to go out, and things actually worked out for them.
