Hot Oscar Dates: Cindy Crawford and Richard Gere

The Oscars red carpet has seen its fair share of supermodel/actor pairings over the years, but none quite as spectacular as power couple Cindy Crawford and Richard Gere's appearance in 1991.

Cindy, stunning in scarlet Versace, laughs as Pretty Woman star Gere goofs around with her handbag. The couple were married from 1991 to 1995.

Hot Oscar Dates: Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer

Heathers co-stars Christian Slater and Winona Ryder were an item for the 1989 Oscars, a few months ahead of the release of the iconic high school flick.

Hot Oscar Dates: Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez

After showing each other off on the Academy Awards red carpet in 2003, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez - or Bennifer, as they were famously nicknamed - couldn't keep their hands off each other at the Vanity Fair Oscars party.

Hot Oscar Dates: Julia Roberts and Kiefer Sutherland

Fresh from their Flatliners success, engaged couple Julia Roberts and Kiefer Sutherland attend the 1991 Oscars a few months ahead of their planned wedding.

The former Fresh Prince has received two Best Actor nods, for his roles in Ali and The Pursuit of Happyness.

Hot Oscar Dates: Guy Ritchie and Madonna

Madonna is floaty and feminine on the arm of then-husband Guy Ritchie at the 2006 Academy Awards Vanity Fair Party, two years before the couple's high-profile divorce.

In 1997, Madonna's single You Must Love Me from the Evita soundtrack won her an Academy Award for Best Original Song.

Hot Oscar Dates: Melanie Griffith and Antonio Banderas

Melanie Griffith and Antonio Banderas make a show-stopping entrance at the 1998 Academy Awards.

Longtime couple Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell, pictured here at the 1989 ceremony, are Academy Awards regulars.
