Some things just go together, like the perennial pairing of athletes and starlets. The athletically inclined always seem to end up with Hollywood's prettiest young things. There must be something aside from the obvious draw of bulging biceps, movie premiers, and the thrill of evading the paparazzi. The athlete/starlet combination is hardly a new one. Perhaps the most well known, and most romanticized. Here are several of soccer superstar and hollywood celebrities couples, the power couples :)
Ashley Cole and Cheryl TweedyThe Chelsea and English soccer star married Tweedy in 2006. Tweedy is a well-known English singer and member of the girl group "Girls Aloud".

The two Brits were hounded by the UK paparazzi at every turn, so they got married, had children and took their already overexposed act to L.A., where fans value star power more than actual ability.
