00:00This is like, marry, marry, marry.
00:02That's what he said to me the other day. He was like, wow, this is real marriage.
00:06Welcome to Ms. Mojo, and today we're counting down our picks for music industry couples
00:11you probably had no idea were going strong.
00:14It's interesting now, 25, well, 30 years later,
00:18but 25 years of us being married together, the words are kind.
00:23Number 10, Joy and Crush.
00:26Dating in the public eye is not exactly common in the K-pop industry.
00:35The couples we do know about were mostly exposed through paparazzi, and few lasted.
00:41However, one success story seems to have weathered the storm of scrutiny.
00:50Red Velvet member Joy and Korean R&B singer Crush
00:54have reportedly been together since 2021.
00:57While there was speculation that they broke up in early 2024, nothing official was ever announced,
01:02so it seems quite possible that the two musicians are still in harmony.
01:12Number nine, Demi Lovato and JOOTS.
01:14Came in to write on one of my sessions, and I was in the studio and was like-
01:18Immediately attracted?
01:20Immediately attracted to him, yeah.
01:22A bop wasn't the only thing cooking in the studio when the camp rock star
01:26collaborated with Jordan Lutz on her album Holy F*** in 2022.
01:30The independent musician, who goes by JOOTS,
01:33was initially skeptical about working with a pop star,
01:36but was pleasantly surprised by the hard rock nature of the project.
01:39I was like, oh sick, like this is-
01:42It was inspiring me to go further into like,
01:47the type of rock that I started making after,
01:49like the grunge rock in the very 90s nostalgic, like,
01:53that music inspired me to then get back in the studio and make another project,
01:57so it was a happy surprise.
01:59Not long after meeting, they were spotted out and about in New York City, hand in hand.
02:03By August, it was clear they were in love, and a year later, he popped the question.
02:08Clearly, this pair is writing their own happy ending.
02:11It's so great when it works out.
02:13Oh yeah.
02:14You want to have his kids?
02:15Yeah, definitely.
02:16Oh, this is serious.
02:18Yeah.
02:18Number 8.
02:19Miley Cyrus and Max Mirando.
02:22The more that you give, the less that I need.
02:26Everyone says I look happy.
02:30This Disney legend has had a tumultuous love life for years,
02:33much of which played out very publicly.
02:36However, she seems to have found her true match in Lili Drummer, Max Mirando.
02:40I tell your mama you're doing fine, you know.
02:43Yeah.
02:47Fans first got wind of a new flame between the two all the way back in 2021.
02:52However, it wasn't until 2022 that they opened up about their relationship.
02:56From meeting on a blind date to moving in together,
02:58the twosome are taking milestones off the cutest relationship checklist one by one.
03:10Number 7.
03:11Gueyna and Lele Pons.
03:13Vine may be obsolete now, but one of its biggest stars,
03:17Lele, keeps soaring to new heights of success.
03:27Her popularity multiplied manifold as she transitioned to YouTube
03:31and launched her music career.
03:33Now, she's married to one of the most prominent Latin rappers today,
03:36Gueyna.
03:41The couple have been together since 2020 and tied the knot in 2023.
03:49Celebrating their big day with them were A-listers like Paris Hilton and Camila Cabello.
03:54Only a power couple could pull such a crowd.
03:57Besides, with the fab music they make together,
04:00such as the viral hit, Se Te Nota,
04:02we need them to stay in love for our sake.
04:12Number 6.
04:13Tate McRae and The Kid LAROI.
04:21When they're not dominating TikTok,
04:23these two young rising stars are packing on the PDA.
04:26They got together in 2024,
04:28which was a big year for them in terms of their careers,
04:30but they made sure to show up for each other too.
04:33I feel like you guys gotta get in the studio.
04:34Do something. It'd be good.
04:35Yeah, maybe. He's amazing.
04:37From Tate gushing over him every chance she got
04:40to LAROI giving her a shout out during a concert in Dublin,
04:43the lovebirds were very much relationship goals.
04:46Fans are already dreaming up a collab,
04:48and if they keep going this steady,
04:50we might actually get that track sooner than expected.
04:53Fingers crossed.
04:54Sometimes when you, like, connect it to,
04:56it feels like you're, like, making a parody of, like,
04:59a thing that you're supposed to do.
05:00Like, I'm, like, it feels like we're, like,
05:02this isn't real. The fact that we're, like, singing seriously at each other.
05:06Number 5.
05:07Ashanti and Nelly.
05:08We have three simple words to describe this couple.
05:11Meant to be.
05:15After falling in love in the early 2000s,
05:17they dated for a decade before going their separate ways.
05:21However, the inexplicable force of fate
05:23must have been tugging at their heartstrings.
05:25We haven't seen or spoken to each other in over six years.
05:29Oh, I thought y'all were friendly from that hug.
05:31If my ex came at me like that, just wait a minute.
05:33We haven't seen each other in six years, bro.
05:36So six years, Paz, you haven't talked, you haven't spoken,
05:39and he went in for a hug.
05:41After reuniting on stage in 2021,
05:44the pair of Grammy winners officially got back together in 2023.
05:48Perhaps to make up for lost time,
05:50they got married before the year came to a close.
05:52Another year later, the couple welcomed their firstborn, a baby boy.
05:56That's a love story straight out of a rom-com.
05:59I cried. I gave him the biggest hugging kiss ever.
06:03I FaceTimed everyone I know.
06:05Number four, Vince Gill and Amy Grant.
06:08If you're ever in need of relationship tips, look no further than this couple.
06:12I know that one thing we give each other is a lot of freedom.
06:16And part of that's marrying when we did.
06:19We kind of already had our rhythms there.
06:22But what my feeling is, I just love returning to him.
06:26Gill and Grant had a whirlwind romance in the late 90s
06:29that saw them getting hitched within a year of dating.
06:31As their first wedding anniversary rolled around,
06:34they became parents to a little girl, Corinna.
06:43Although many believed that they left their respective spouses for each other,
06:46Amy shut down such rumors, clarifying that they were just friends then.
06:50However, she did admit to feeling like they, quote,
06:53"...kept crossing paths until the stars aligned
06:56and they could take their then platonic relationship to the next level."
07:00And now it's so weird, like the two of us just kind of dancing around
07:03just the obvious energy that was immediate from the beginning.
07:07Number three, Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz.
07:10How has this romance not been adapted into a movie yet?
07:13Alicia Keys met her now hubby as a teenager.
07:17Her best friend at the time was-
07:19She used to rap, and she was in my class,
07:21and she used to always tell me like,
07:23Yo, you gotta meet my friend Ally.
07:24You gotta meet my friend Ally.
07:26She's like, what you doing? You DJing thing?
07:27And she's playing a piano thing.
07:29Like, maybe I can come together and do something.
07:32At the time, his flashy lifestyle as a budding hip-hop icon didn't appeal to her.
07:36However, she definitely judged the book by its cover.
07:39Once they got to talking years later in the aughts, sparks flew.
07:43I didn't think we had anything in common.
07:46But I think that when we started to actually get to know each other,
07:50that's when I realized that a lot of things that I thought about him
07:53was not who he actually was.
07:56And so when I started to actually uncover what he was about,
08:00that's when I started to realize, like, wow.
08:02It didn't sit well with Beats' ex-wife,
08:04Mashonda Tafrere, though,
08:06who labeled the Girl on Fire singer a homewrecker.
08:09Nevertheless, once their divorce was finalized,
08:11he got down on one knee for Alicia, and they married in 2010.
08:15In October that year, their first son was born.
08:18They've since welcomed another son,
08:20and are as lovey-dovey today as they were years ago.
08:23Baby face.
08:24Is that meditation, boo?
08:26That's why I get up.
08:30I gotta catch up.
08:31I love you, too.
08:32Number two, Big Sean and Jhené Aiko.
08:43This unbelievably good-looking couple had an instant connection
08:46from the moment they met in 2012.
08:48Although they've put several names to their relationship,
08:51like collaborators, competitors, and friends,
08:53it was probably just electric chemistry all along.
08:57In fact, Jhené even admitted to going on a date with Sean back then,
09:00even though she wasn't single.
09:02The one thing I can say is he immediately felt familiar.
09:06Like, I knew him already, and I was comfortable with him immediately.
09:12Sometime later, while she was married to Dot Da Genius,
09:15Sean gave her a cheeky little kiss on stage with the world watching.
09:19She filed for divorce soon after,
09:21and made things official with the Bounce Back rapper in 2016.
09:25A brief breakup and a baby later,
09:27they're still not married but are actively working on their relationship.
09:31It's a crazy connection because no matter what, we're always gonna be tied together.

09:51Number 1.
09:52Bruce Springsteen and Patty Schiaffa.
09:55Get me baby, struggling to do everything right.
10:01This romance is older than all of Gen Z.
10:04The boss got caught in a tryst with his now-wife in the 80s,
10:07while still married to model and actress Julianne Phillips.
10:11According to Springsteen, he and Phillips had separated,
10:14but he insisted it remain private.
10:16He and Schiaffa were papped getting cozy during his Tunnel of Love tour,
10:20and shortly after, Phillips filed for divorce.
10:23That marriage ended, and another began just three years later with Patty,
10:27who by that time had given birth to their first son, Evan.
10:37Decades later, the couple are joined at the hip,
10:40despite rumors in 2010 that he had cheated on her
10:42with New Jersey housewife, Ann Kelly.
10:45Infidelity or not, they are now grandparents
10:48who will most likely live and love happily ever after.
10:51It takes a red-headed woman to get that dirty job done.
10:59Dedicated to my fabulous wife.
