Did you know that Tom Cruise and Cher once dated? Of all the celebrity pairings I could imagine, that comes to mind last. But Hollywood is sometimes a strange and kooky place, and odd pairings often come and go. See a few more surprising 80s couples here, and let us know what you think of them!

It’s really not that surprising that Demi Moore and Emilio Estevez got together. St. Elmo’s Fire, anyone?
Speaking of Emilio Estevez…….. And I was like, Emiliooooooooooooo.

I don’t remember Tom Cruise and Cher. I remember the rest.

@clumsyandunaware@xanga - I was just gonna say St. Elmo’s Fire, too… which I watched in its entirety recently. Kinda boring :/ Although Rob Lowe… That man could still get it!
I don’t think these couples seem too surprising to me. They all mesh well in some way (yes, even Michael Jackson and Brooke Shields).

@pick_my_friggin_nose@xanga - OMG, I couldn’t even see Rob Lowe in St. Elmo’s Fire. All my attention was on Judd Nelson and Andrew McCarthy. I just can not resist a writer or the typical bad boy. Lol, I liked the film a little more than I anticipated. But it still can’t hold a candle to Pretty in Pink, 16 Candles, or the Breakfast Club.
