Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries

For months, we heard about Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries' impending nuptials. The media-savvy Kardashian was photographed meeting with Vera Wang about her three dresses, tasting cakes, and registering for pricey presents at Gearys of Beverly Hills. And in the end, the $10 million August 20 affair, filmed for the E! special "Kim's Fairytale Wedding," was pretty close to perfect. It was the marriage that needed work. Kardashian filed for divorce barely two months later, saying that she had made a mistake. "I think when you know so deep in your heart that you just to listen to your intuition and follow your heart, there's no right or wrong thing to do," she explained after the breakup. Too bad she didn't hear that voice 72 days earlier! The divorce isn’t expected to be finalized until next year, and has already cost an estimated $250,000. She's now famously dating Kanye West. less
