BREAKUP: Naya Rivera and Big Sean - After the rapper and the Glee actress called off their engagement this past April, they stopped at nothing trying to hurt each other in the media. Sean rapped about his "crazy b***h" ex on his track "I Don't F**k With You," while Naya blasted Sean on Twitter for cheating. Hopefully, now that both have moved on to new relationships — Sean is dating Ariana Grande, while Rivera got hitched in September (on the same date she was to marry Sean) to actor Ryan Dorsey — they'll stop the fighting.

BREAKUP: Future and Ciara - Shortly after giving birth to son Future Zahir in May, Ciara ended her engagement to her rapper beau after he allegedly cheated on her while on tour. The couple have been on and off ever since, with some reports saying they're giving their relationship another shot for the sake of their son, while others claiming Ciara already returned her $600,000 engagement ring and Future has moved on to a new lady.

BREAKUP: Jas Prince and Christina Milian - Milian, 32, called off her engagement to the Rap-A-Lot Records CEO in June, later implying that his infidelities may have had something to do with it. "I can make everything 'appear' perfect to the [world], but my truth is still the truth," she wrote on Instagram. (Photo: Prince Williams/FilmMagic)

BREAKUP: Jason Derulo and Jordin Sparks - The couple of three years called it quits this past fall, and have managed to — for the most part — keep things classy. While Derulo told Ryan Seacrest that their relationship had simply run its course, Sparks put her thoughts into lyrics: the singer wrote about being with an egotistical, ungrateful guy in her mixtape track "How 'Bout Now."

BREAKUP: Nicole Murphy and Michael Strahan - The model and VH1 star ended her five-year engagement to the morning show host and retired NFL player this past August. A rep for Murphy revealed the news just one day before the former New York Giants star was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, leaving some to wonder if the timing was a parting shot from Murphy to Strahan.

BREAKUP: Jennifer Lopez and Casper Smart - Another year, another split for Lopez, who called it quits on her relationship with the dancer/choreographer in June after persistent rumors he cheated on her with a transsexual model. The former couple have stayed friendly, however, attending an MTV VMAs after party together in September and enjoying the occasional dinner date. (Photo: John Sciulli/Getty Images for March of Dimes)

BREAKUP: Tyga and Blac Chyna - The rapper and his model girlfriend split in August after more than two years — and one child — together. They vowed to "try to keep things amicable," but that proved to be difficult when Tyga started dating Kylie Jenner, the 16-year-old little sister of Chyna's good friend Kim Kardashian.

BREAKUP: Rita Ora and Calvin Harris - The singer and her DJ beau confirmed their split this past June, with Ora saying Harris was "the right guy at the wrong time." Behind the scenes, however, sources say cheating was to blame for the breakup. (Photo: Tony Clark / Splash News)

BREAKUP: Nicki Minaj and Safaree Samuels - Despite her fame, Nicki Minaj was always able to keep her relationship with fellow rapper Safaree Samuels relatively private. The same goes for the couple's split, which allegedly happened sometime this past fall after Samuels allegedly cheated on her, but nobody knows for sure. Still, the fact that Nicki went to town on Samuels's Mercedes (which she bought him) with a baseball bat is a pretty clear indication that things are over between them.

HOOK UP: Ariana Grande and Big Sean - This one is certainly one of the oddest pairings of the year: mere weeks after Big Sean ended his engagement to Naya Rivera, he coupled up with the ponytail-wearing "Problem" singer. The pair have been going strong for a couple of months now and seem smitten with each other. (Photo: MAZ / Splash News)

HOOK UP: Christina Milian and Lil Wayne - Speaking of rebounds, Tina wasted no time hooking up with Tunechi after her split from fiance Jas Prince.

HOOK UP: Samira Wiley and Lauren Morelli - Love blooms in unexpected places, and that was certainly true for Orange Is the New Black writer Lauren Morelli. The scribe divorced her husband to be with the show's star, Samira Wiley, earlier this year. (Photos from Left: PNP/WENN, FayesVision/WENN)

HOOK UP: Keri Hilson and Serge Ibaka - The Oklahoma City Thunder baller got himself a pretty nice good-luck charm going into the playoffs this year. After parting ways late last year, Ibaka and Hilson reunited this past April and have been going strong ever since. "Had to get my girl back," Ibaka posted alongside a sweet picture of the couple on Instagram. And they say there are no nice guys in the NBA.... (Photo: Jason Merritt/Getty Images)
