Real Hollywood Husbands

From Will Smith to Snoop Dogg, our favorite better halves.

Spike Lee - Lee has created quite a few strong Black female characters in his films, and they could very well have been modeled on his wife, Tonya Lewis. The outspoken filmmaker claims he fell in love with Lewis, a corporate lawyer, at first sight when they bumped into each other at a dinner for the Congressional Black Caucus in Washington. Twenty years and two kids later, he often turns to his wife before his producing partner or studio execs for script notes.    (Photo: Peter Kramer/Getty Images)
Shante Broadus  - Snoop Dogg's wife, commonly known as Boss Lady, proved her loyalty to Snoop early in their relationship, before he became famous, by standing by him during his many jail stints. Snoop got to return the favor in 2008, when Shante was jailed following a DUI investigation. You know what they say, the couple that does time together... 
Grant Hill - Shaunie O'Neal called Grant Hill "the only faithful man in the NBA," and she should know. Tamia's hubby not only schooled players on the court, he was also always around to help his two kids with their homework. What more could a basketball wife ask for?

Wyclef Jean - He may have made some mistakes, but Wyclef has toughed it out with wife Claudinette since 1994. Not even an embarrassing cheating scandal involving Clef's fellow Fugees member Lauryn Hill could tear them apart.

Marriage may not have worked for him the first time around, but Alicia Keys certainly got the best of Swizz: devoted husband, doting father and plenty of romantic, gushy PDA. Beatz and Keys have been married two years, but we're betting on these two for the long haul.  (Photo: Fernando Leon/Getty Images for Haute Living)

Snoop Dogg - Despite what they say about the Dogg Pound, Snoop has never been much of a player. The rapper married his high school sweetheart, Shante Broadus, in 1997 and filed for divorce in 2004. After a three-year separation, Snoop realized he wasn't the single type and called off the divorce. He and Shante renewed their wedding vows in 2008.
