Not all celebrity friendships are built to last.
Just like regular people, stars sometimes grow apart… and/or have a major blowup that ruins a once-tight relationship.
It happens to all of us. And it happened to the following pairs of very famous people:
Heidi Montag and Lauren Conrad
Was this best friendship ever real? Or was it as fake as the series on which they once starred, The Hills? We may never know. But we do know that when one half (Heidi) makes up a sex tape rumor about the other half (LC), the odds of a friendship lasting are not strong.
Demi Lovato and Miley Cyrus
Lovato admitted in a 2014 interview with Entertainment Tonight that she and Miley are now “acquaintances” at best. How come? “People change,” she says, and it’s true: While Cyrus goes around smoking lots of pot, Lovato is committed to a drug-free lifestyle.
Gwyneth Paltrow and Madonna
When was the last time you saw Gwyneth Paltrow and Madonna together? Exactly. One source blamed this split on Paltrow being “jealous and competitive,” while the entire world saw Madonna ignore the actress at the 2013 MET Gala.
Denise Richards and Heather Locklear
Denise Richards and Heather Locklear were very close. Until, that is, Richards started dating Locklear’s ex-husband, Richie Sambora. It so often comes down to a man, doesn’t it?
Katy Perry and Taylor Swift
At this point, it seems impossible to believe Katy Perry and Taylor Swift were once close. They have grown into bitter enemies, allegedly because Swift thinks Perry stole one of her backup dancers.
Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton
They haven’t just both released sex tapes. Kim used to be Paris’ best friend and personal assistant! But now Kardashian has shot past Hilton in terms of wealth and fame and they haven’t hung out in years.
David Letterman and Jay Leno
David Letterman turned Jay Leno bashing into an art form in recent years. But the comedians came up together and Leno used to regularly be a guest on Letterman’s talk show.
Jennie Garth and Tiffani Thiessen
9021… oh, no! No one knows the reason why these two former co-stars have stopped getting along, but Thiessen has said she was the one who got “hurt.” Interesting.
Nicole Richie and Paris Hilton
Remember when these two co-starred on The Simple Life? Anonymous sources have speculated that the two grew apart after Nicole showed Paris’ homemade sex tape to her friends. This may or may not be true. But it’s hilarious to even consider.
Carrie Underwood and Jessica Simpson
We’re not sure what went wrong here, although both women did date Tony Romo. But Simpson was spotted out in a “Real girls eat meat” shirt right after Underwood was voted as GoVeg.com’s Sexiest Vegetarian. Talk about an awesomely passive aggressive diss!
Christina Aguilera and Britney Spears
Christina Aguilera and Britney Spears were totally tight during their days as Mickey Mouse Club members. They claim to still respect each other, but they certainly don’t hang out anymore.
Jennifer Lopez and Eva Longoria
Photos of Longoria sitting on Marc Anthony’s lap back when he was married to Jennifer Lopez went viral… which led to the end of this friendship between female stars.
Jennifer Williams and Evelyn Lozada
Jennifer Williams and Evelyn Lozada were totally best friend while filming Basketball Wives. But this relationship turned violent during Season 4 when Lozada actually slapped Williams. We assume things fell apart over a man.
