There are Cougars, Gold Diggers, and Perverts, but when they're celebrities, it's even more scandalous when we learn that they have a thing for partners who are much, much younger than they are. Here are just a few of those celebs who went for a mate that was way younger.
#1 Tyga & Kylie Jenner
Unless you've been living under a rock, you've no doubt hear something about this relationship. After splitting with his baby mama, Black Chyna, rapper Tyga got together with 16-year-old Kylie Jenner. In most states, the age of consent is 16, but in California, it's 18. At the time Tyga was 24 and very luck that nobody objected to the short-lived relationship or he could be facing jail time.
#2 Ashton Kutcher & Demi Moore
It was a scandal that rocked the world. When actress Demi Moore got a divorce from a much older Bruce Willis, she went the opposite and went for a younger man, cougar style. The public was shocked to learn that Demi was shacking up with That 70s Show star Ashton Kutcher. What's even more startling is that they eventually got married and started a family, staying together for eight years, before finally divorcing. Demi is 15 years older than Ashton! Bruce Willis is married to Emma Heming, who is 23 years younger.
#3 Madonna & Many Boy Toys
It seems the Material Girl collects partners just as much as she collects wealth and music awards. When she was just starting out as a singer, Madonna dated men who could help her career. Once she was established, only of-the-moment celebs would suffice. Why else would she have dated Vanilla Ice and Dennis Rodman, and even lesbian Sandra Bernhard? As Madge got older, she settled down in Britain with Guy Ritchie, but even that relationship didn't last. Her 2-year marriage to actor Sean Penn is said to be the highlight of her life, according to what she tell friends. These days she only goes for boy toys like Jesus Luz, Brahim Zaibat and several others.
#4 Sonny & Cher
When our favorite 1970s couple met, Sonny was 29, and Cher was only 18 years old. They had been dating for almost two years, which means Cher was under 16 at the time. But Sonny apparently had a thing for younger women. Following their divorce 11 years later, he got married to Susie Coelho who was 18 years his junior, and after THAT divorce, he got married to Mary Whitaker (now Bono) who was 26 years younger than Sonny.
#5 Woody Allen & Soon-Yi Previn
He was 56 years old and she was only 21, and the adopted daughter of ex-girlfriend, Mia Farrow. The 35 year age difference and the fact that Woody was almost Soon-Yi's stepfather was too much for Mia to handle and she had a major falling out with Woody, as well as Soon-Yi. The couple, who had been together for many years, soon split up, and Woody married his almost-stepdaughter, Soon-Yi in the Summer of 1997, five years after the pair began dating. They are still married.
#6 Elvis Presley & Pricilla Wagner
Her parents told her that Elvis would never see her again after he escorted Pricilla Wagner home after their first date. Elvis was 24 and serving in the army, stationed in Germany where he met 14-year-old Pricilla. The couple eventually married and became the 'royal couple' of America with all the media coverage and photographs of their lives. Elvis and Pricilla divorced in 1973, 4 years before Elvis' death.
#7 Kris Jenner & Corey Gamble
Cougar alert! After her split from transgender Caitlyn, Kris went on a dating spree with numerous younger guys. But before the divorce from Bruce/Caitlyn was finalized, and several young studs later, she met Corey Gamble, who works for Justin Bieber's manager, Scooter Braun. Apparently he was the one she was searching for, as reports state that their relationship is hot and heavy. But will she decide to marry again? Very doubtful since she has been spotted and photographed by paparazzi with other younger men.
#8 Jennifer Lopez & Casper Smart
She's fallen for one of her background dancers on more than one occasion, so when she and hubby Marc Anthony split up it came as no surprise when she was seen with another dancer from her troupe, Casper Smart. Jennifer Lopez is currently 46 and Casper is 28, but they have been dating for over five years now not counting a short breakup in 2014. Since they've gotten back together, Jennifer was reluctant to say that they got back together, but now she freely admits she's in love with her boy toy, who is 18 years her junior.
#9 Herry Seinfeld with Jessica and Shoshanna
He's now happily married to Jessica Seinfeld (she's a lot younger than him, 20 years or so), but before that he was in a somewhat low profile relationship with Shoshanna Lonstein from 1993 1997. Jerry was 39 when they started dating and Shoshanna was a 17-year-old high school senior.
#10 Wilmer Valderrama with Demi and Lindsay
Actor Wilmer Valderrama, notable for playing Fez on That 70's Show, dated Demi Lovato, starting when she was 17 and he was 30, a 13 year age difference. Wilmer is known for his many celebrity flings and relationships and it surprises us how women keep falling for him. Years ago, when he was 24, he also dated an underage Lindsay Lohan, who was 16 at the time, keeping the relationship out of the public eye until she turned 18.
#11 Mariah Carey & Tommy and Nick, and Many More
Mariah Carey first married record company CEO and producer Tommy Mottola, 21 years her senior. They divorced, she had a relationship or two with men way younger than herself and then one who was 18 years older than herself. Soon she met and married actor, comedian, and rapper, Nick Cannon, who is 10 years her junior. In the end, that relationship didn't work out either, but they do have twins to show for it. She is currently said to be focusing on her children and career but has been spotted on the town with a man who is 22 years older than she is.
#12 Eva Longoria & Tony Parker
Eva Longoria married Tony Parker in 2007. Tony is 7 years younger than Eva. Soon afterwards, Tony began an affair with the wife of his NBA team mate, Brent Barry. Eva stated, following their divorce, that she discovered hundreds of texts between Tony and Erin (the wife). They were finally divorced in 2011. Erin and Brent Barry also divorced.
#13 R. Kelly & Aaliyah
Singer and Rapper, R. Kelly, was embroiled in a controversy where he was said to have married the late 15-year-old Aaliyah. Though bot of them denied the marriage, she filed court papers to have the license expunged just before her death. Kelly likes his women young. He made a sex tape and was accused of urinating on an underage girl in 2002, which is the year he turned 35, making his twice the age of his sex partner.
#14 Nicolas Cage & Alice Kim
Nicolas Cage is kind of known for being a bit out there, so it shouldn't be a total shocker that when he was 39 he went out to dinner, thought the 19-year-old Asian waitress named Alice Kim was super hot, asked her out, married her shortly after, and got her pregnant with a son they would name after Superman. They are still together.
#15 Paul Walker & Jasmine Pilchard-Gosnell
When he was 33-years-old, actor Paul Walker, famous for his Fast And Furious movies, fell head=over=heels in love with a 16-year-old Jasmine Pilchard-Gosnell. The pair claimed to be deeply in love, and Walker promised to marry the teenager when she was ready. Sadly for her, Paul died in a fiery car wreck at the age of 40.
#16 Robe Lowe
If you were around in the late 80's you probably remember this scandal. In 1988, Rob Lowe and his friend, Justin Morritt, invited two girls to Rob's hotel room and filmed the night's activities, of which there were many. Unfortunately for Rob, one of the girls was on sixteen. This happened in Georgia where the age of consent is 16, but not to be recorded. The famous actor suffered a huge media storm and lengthy trial and several civil suits. Rob's career eventually bounced back after the bad press from the leaked sex tape but one told the Reporter that he "appreciated" girls around 16 and 17 years of age.
#17 Justin Gaston & Miley Cyrus
While a contestant on Billy Ray Cyrus' show, Nashville Star show, actor, model, and singer Justin Gaston met up with Billy Ray's daughter, Miley, and the two began dating. The dated for closet o two years, while he was 20 and she was only 15-years-old! Miley's parents were very supportive of the relationship, but the singer finished tenth place on the show out of 12 performers.
#18 Kobe Bryant’s Rape Allegations
While he was married to Vanessa, a 19-year-old woman accused Kobe of raping her. He denied the charge then later said the sex was consensual. She disagreed in the media but later refused to testify in court, causing the case to be dismissed. She filed two separate civil suits against him, and the two parties settled them out of court for an undisclosed sum.
#19 Jay-Z & Beyonce
She was 29 and he was 39 when the power couple got married in 2008. They had dated for a very long time before they got married, however. While some people have a problem with their age difference, eleven years is not that much of aa age gap once the two adults are over 20.
