Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom may have 'wed' on September 27th, but they still aren't legally married. Reports claim the prenup is still being hashed out.

As we wait to see if the pair will ever legally be man and wife, we thought we'd take a look back at some of Hollywood's other shortest weddings, and then vote.

Whose marriage will, in length, be most like that of Khloe & Lamar? Will they be like Eddie Murphy and 'wife' Tracey Edmonds, who never made it legal before splitting? Will they last 5 months like Tom Green and Drew Barrymore? Or will they make it two years, like Britney and Kevin Federline? Perhaps they'll stay together forever.

Scroll through the below, remember some of Hollywood's shorter marriages, and pick what you think the most likely outcome is for the reality TV couple.

The answer is at least 2 years. That's typically how long these things last.

In this particular case, call me crazy but I think they will actually be quite happy together! Lamar is a centered and grounded guy and even though they havent been together long, he seems like the kind of guy that;s into love at first sight. He did name his daughter Destiny after all!

Were actually having an interesting debate on this over at U Say, I Say. Im arguing (very convincingly) that they will stay together, while my partner says no way. Come vote for my argument!

Khloe and Lamar is a joke...that was made for TV. Not buying this "We're in love" crap. Maybe lust but not love. Celebs take marriage for granted. They get divorces just like they change the sheets on their bed...every couple of days...lol

Are they still married? If so they've really exceeded my expectations.

Now the death of God combined with the perfection of the image has brought us to a whole new state of expectation. We are the image. We are the viewer and the viewed. There is no other distracting presence. And the image has all the Godly powers. It kills at will. Kills effortlessly. Kills beautifully. It dispenses morality. Judges endlessly. The electronic image is man as God and the ritual involved leads us not to a Holy Trinity but back to ourselves. In the absence of a clear understanding that we are now the only source, these images cannot help but return to the expression of magic and fear proper to idolatrous societies. This in turn facilitates the use of the electronic image as propaganda by whoever can control some part of it. -John Ralston Saul

This is an utterly ridiculous poll__look at the comments of your readers LMPE or juhar and then get your act together. You are so much better than this silliness.

Who ARE these two people and WHY is ANYONE worried about their "marriage" ( other than their publicists)

Lamar's kids live here in NYC. His daughter is in middle school and has to put up with the whispers and circus that her dad has pulled. In the end, it wouldn't matter since his bogus marriage will fail by next season, just like whatever-her-name's show.

I was in line at the grocery store reading through the magazine titles and they "proclaimed" how in love they are. Yes, I did buy a mag./rag for my plane ride, and apparently this person was upset because two other celebs got married the same day. Oy!

I'll bet the under on any period of time you say.

I forgot about Britney and that guy who played George on "Seinfeld."

Yeah, I thought about "George" when I read his name. Of course, Jason Alexander (the one from Seinfeld) was actually born as Jay Scott Greenspan (thank you Wikipedia.)

Can't wait for the next Curb episode tonight!

It says a lot about Lamar. To marry someone after knowing them for such a short time is not too bright. Not only that, the girl has some serious emotional issues. She's also very disrespectful to her mom and step-father.

This marriage isn't about love, it's about opportunity. Kourtney is pregnant and about to leave Khloe and Kourtney's show on E so they need to do another reality show featuring Khloe and her new hubby. I give them until the end of the year. People make such a joke out of marriage it's sad and this is a prime example.

How about Posh and Becks? Say what you like but their marriage seems pretty solid.

I have no idea who Khloe & Lamar are.

Another really short marriage was Ernest Borgnine and Ethel Merman (a few hours).

Other lifelong ones include Dan Aykroyd and Donna Dixon (26 years and counting), Ron Howard and Cheryl Alley (34 years and counting), Richard Benjamin and Paula Prentiss (48 years and counting), Federico Fellini and Giulietta Masina (50 years, until he died), and Karl Malden and Mona Greenberg (71 years, until he died).
