Photo Gallery: Famous Couples Who Met On-Set

If these couples are any proof, you really can find true love in Tinseltown.

When Ben Affleck took out a full-page ad in Variety and The Hollywood Reporter last March praising his Gigli co-star Jennifer Lopez for her “graciousness of spirit, beauty and courage, great empathy, astonishing talent, real poise and true grace,” it was clear that love was in the air.

Lopez, 32, and Affleck, 29, met in December of 2001 while filming that romantic comedy. At the time, Lopez was practically a newlywed: She had wed dancer Cris Judd in a hush-hush ceremony in Calabasas, Calif., just a few months earlier. J.Lo filed for divorce from Judd the following July, after only nine months of marriage. Now she sports an engagement ring care of Ben.

Still not convinced? Here are 10 celeb couples who found their soul mate on a
Hollywood studio lot, and beat the odds by staying together (at least, at press time!).
