The most ridiculous ones are those that lasted only a matter of weeks/days, because the public so obviously didn't buy it. Goldberg and Langella and Walters and Cohn at least managed to fool some people over an extended period of time.

KStew and Holt. It lasted for about 5 minutes. The comment section of every post about them was filled with people stating she had a girlfriend. Not as laughable as Tomlin and Travolta, but that's a very high bar. Jackson and Prestly was down right creepy.

Heath Ledger and what's her name. I'm thinking she was his dealer.

"Leonard Bernstein and Felicia Montenegro"

Montealegre. And when a couple is married for decades and has three children together, you cannot really call it a "fauxmance", no matter how gay the husband might be. Bernstein was simply "a gay man who got married"; he wanted his cake and eat it too.

If Archie Bunker were gay, he would have his cake and Edith too.

Cruise and everyone, obviously; but how notable that these days it's fauxmance to nomance. Even the $cienos now realise that what they've been selling, even special needs folk aren't buying. Headscratching time for Tom's people!

Also, Elton and Renata never quite seemed the start of a great dynasty.

People are confusing "fauxmances" with bearded/lavender marriages. Fauxmances are by their very nature short-term.

Was it Helena Christianson, R30?

Thinking of Tom Cruise and going back a million years...is Rebecca DeMorney(sp) a lesbian? I know she was married to Bruce Wagner but Bruce Wagner seems awfully gay, to me.

She was involved with (engaged, maybe?) Leonard Cohen for years. He was a notorious womanizer and not the type to play beard games. Maybe she was bi, but who knows.
