10. WRITING A SONG

Credit:  

Brad Paisley was inspired by wife Kimberly before he even met her – writing some of his album Part II after seeing her in Father of the Bride. And she's still his muse, appearing in his sweet ode "Little Moments." When Paisley sings, "And I can't even remember now/what she backed my truck into," Kimberly chimes in, saying, "I never crashed your truck, you know." His reply? "Give it time."

"His is on one shoulder to the other and it says 'Mariah,'" Carey told PEOPLE. And hers? "It's on my lower back and it says 'Mrs. Cannon.'"

Just because you can afford designer duds doesn't mean you always have to wear them! Christina Aguilera and husband Jordan Bratman doff their clothes once a week for "naked Sundays." "We just do everything in the house, and we're just cozy and laid back," the star told Ellen DeGeneres. "We don't need to go anywhere, we're just with each other. We do everything naked. We cook naked."
