Rappers are the new rockstars when it comes to having their pick of models, actresses and pop signers who are itching to hook up with a guy who can sell out an arena tour.
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West stroll around here in Paris. Word is, they are scouting wedding locations.

7. 50 Cent and Chelsea Handler
One of our all-time favorites, hands down.
12. Jay Z and Rosario Dawson
Can you even remember Jay without Bey? Bet Rosario Dawson does.
13. Tupac and Madonna
Yeah. This happened.
14. Katy Perry and Travis McCoy
Katy and the Gym Class Heroes rapper were an item for quite a while, actually.
Maybe Kim Kardashian is more of a trend-setter than we realize, but it seems like ever since she dropped the athlete in favor of the rap icon, hip-hop hook-ups have been all the rage.
To help you keep track of this growing trend, we've assembled a list of the most memorable rapper/non-rap-celebrity couples, past and present.
Yes, in order to narrow things down, we disqualified couples in which both parties first made their name in the world of hip-hop and R&B. (Sorry, Jay and Bey, Nas and Kelis).
But don't worry, that rule didn't shorten the list by much. It seems when rappers are choosing boo thangs to settle down with they prefer to look outside of the hip-hop community.
It's a habit that sometimes makes for some interesting combinations ... think way stranger pairings than Khloe Kardashian and French Montana.
There are some obvious entries (those Kardashian gals sure love a guy who can rock a mic), some shockers and a few who pop up on the list more than once (Hey, Katy Perry and Kanye - if you guys hook up you can make it a hat trick!)
Check out the gallery above for a full list of rappers who risked their street cred to hook up with reality stars, Hollywood actresses and... a male model?
Yeah, we forgot about that one too.
