10 Couples Who Made Us Fall in Love With Their Romantic Duets
The couple that sings together may not always stay together, but they do gift the world with timeless duets to help us get through our darkest hours. These former and current romantic partners provided us some of our all-time favourite love-inspired songs.
Beyoncé & Jay Z
Throughout the years, the music industry’s first couple collaborated on a number of hits, including ‘Crazy in Love,’ ‘03 Bonnie and Clyde,’ and ‘Upgrade U.’
Gwen Stefani & Blake Shelton
On the show that brought them together, the Voice coaches-turned-lovebirds sang their duet “Go Ahead and Break My Heart,” hardly breaking eye contact as they sang.
John Mayer & Katy Perry
The musicians dated on-and-off from 2012 to 2015, performing together in ‘Who You Love’ in 2013.
Mac Miller & Ariana Grande
In September 2016, three months before the release of their collaborative video “My Favorite Part,” Grande announced her relationship with the rapper.
Jessica Simpson & Nick Lachey
The breathy duet “Where You Are” was one among the many wonderful gifts their union offered society.

Hill and McGraw, who married in 1996, collaborated on ‘Like We Never Loved At All,’ ‘It’s Your Love,’ and ‘Meanwhile Back at Mama’s’. ‘I Need You,’ from 2007, is one of their most memorable songs. The couple gets up close and personal in the video, serenading one other in a candlelit house.
Jason Derulo & Jordin Sparks
The vocalists split up in 2014 after a three-year relationship, but not before singing ‘Vertigo’ together. At a Walmart Soundcheck event, Derulo and Sparks sang the touching song, and the love between them was evident.
Ashley Tisdale & Christopher French
Tisdale and her husband, who married in 2014, played “one of our all-time favourite songs” on her YouTube channel. As they sing an acoustic version of ‘Shut Up and Dance’ in the video, we can almost see hearts coming out of their eyes.
Big Sean & Jhené Aiko
The couple created musical group Twenty88 in 2016 after working on a number of tracks together over the years. On a May 2016 episode of The Late Late Show, the rappers performed ‘On the Way,’ a song from their self-titled album.
Marc Anthony & Jennifer Lopez
Anthony was featured on Lopez’s debut studio album, ‘No Me Ames,’ long before their 2004 marriage. The couple separated in 2014, but they remain friends and co-parents of twins Emme and Max, and even shared an onstage kiss at the 2016 Latin Grammy Awards while performing “Olvdame y Pega la Vuelta.”
Camilla Cabello and Shawn Mendes
While Shawn Mendes and Camilla Cabello were performing ‘Senorita’ at the 2019 MTV VMAs, literally everyone and their mother were waiting with bated breath to see exactly what would go down between the two. Sadly, they didn’t kiss (even though they’ve had zero problem with PDA in the past), but dammit, they were so freakin’ close!
