#1 Britney Spears & Jason Alexander – 55 Hours

In January 2004, a 22-year-old Britney Spears and her childhood friend Jason Alexander snuck off to A Little White Wedding Chapel in Las Vegas after a wild night of partying. Wearing jeans and a trucker hat, Britney said “I do” at 5 a.m. in a $70 ceremony that lasted seven minutes.

The marriage was annulled just 55 hours later when her family and management stepped in. Britney later admitted she was “very drunk” and “bored,” calling it a silly, rebellious impulse. The short-lived union became tabloid gold and kicked off one of the most scrutinized pop-star lives in history.

#2 Nicolas Cage & Erika Koike – 4 Days

After dating for nearly a year, Nicolas Cage and makeup artist Erika Koike flew to Las Vegas in March 2019 and got married in a secret ceremony. The union was fueled by impulse and heavy drinking, according to Cage.

Just four days later, Cage filed for annulment, citing intoxication and Koike’s undisclosed criminal history. The split made headlines for its speed, adding another chapter to Cage’s colorful romantic history.
