Mo’nique - The Precious star has made it clear that her open marriage was not about fulfilling her husband's fantasy, nor “a pass to cheat,” but that it was her idea in the first place.“Open means we’re open-minded to the world. That’s what we’re open to. We are open to being honest to each other all the way through,” she explained on The Talk. It’s clear that open communication is equally important to this long-lasting duo, who have been best friends since Mo’Nique was 14 and married in 2006. Can't wait to hear more about it on their podcast next month!  (Photo: Kevin Winter/Getty Images)

Jill Scott - Jilly from Philly sparked a debate on social media when she tweeted, "What do u think about 'open' relationships. Been considering. Many friends are making it work. Not sure if I'm that girl but not sure if I'm not. Sometimes there's an understanding that nobody else gets..." The singer, as far as we know, never acted on her instinct during her marriage to Lyzel Williams (they divorced in 2007), nor after she fired off that tweet — but never say never!

T-Pain - The rapper announced to TMZ that he is very much open to open relationships — as long as his wife, Amber Najm, is present. The couple have an agreement that he's allowed to bring in other women into their bedroom, as long as she's into them, too. They've been married since 2003, so it’s obviously worked out well for the pair.  (Photo: Ethan Miller/Getty Images for Michael Jordan Celebrity Invitational)

Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith - This power pair have been together for 16 years and have described their relationship as "grown" — you can read between the lines with that one. Jada further fueled speculation that they're in an open relationship by announcing that Will is “his own man” and can do “whatever he wants.” These two seem more connected and in love than ever, so whatever works for them.  (Photo: Kevin Winter/Getty Images)

Hugh Hefner - The world’s most renowned playboy may have finally settled down with new wife, Crystal, but that hasn’t stopped his ever-wandering eye. Married for three years, the pair still practices an open relationship, with Hugh consistently throwing mansion parties with pretty playmates. Says Crystal, “The majority of the haters blindly criticize and have never met us or knows us personally. Never judge a book by its cover.” Old age sure clearly hasn’t slowed this stud down.  (Photo: Charley Gallay/Getty Images for Playboy)

Robin Thicke and Paula Patton - They might be divorced now, but with a 21-year relationship and 9-year marriage, these high school sweethearts clearly worked their relationship for a long haul. When photos surfaced of Thicke clinging onto pretty young New Yorker Lana Scolaro, Paula seemed cool as a cucumber. Scolaro said herself that the couple was “pretty chill,” and rumors pointed to an open relationship. In an interview with Howard Stern, Thicke seemed to imply that he and his then-wife had an unconventional relationship but wouldn't directly cop to it when asked by the Shock Jock: “Out of respect for her, we just won’t answer that one.”  (Photo: Christopher Polk/Getty Images for NARAS)

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie  - The gorgeous actress told German magazine Das Neue Blatt, “I doubt that fidelity is absolutely essential for a relationship. It’s worse to leave your partner and talk badly about him afterwards. Neither Brad nor I have ever claimed that living together means to be chained together. We make sure that we never restrict each other.” The couple has been together for 10 years, so it clearly works for them.  (Photo: Jason Merritt/Getty Images)

Chris Brown and Karrueche Tran  - This former couple has always had an unconventional relationship (if that's what you want to call it), and Breezy revealed just how "open" they kept things when he decided to blast his off-again girl on Instagram last December: "When this relationship first started u knew what it was and even participated in threesomes," he wrote. "I slowed all that shit down. So let's not try to save face for public opinion because I don't need to play victim so people can take my side." Amazingly, they got back together one more time after that rant, but Kae called things off for good earlier this year when Brown revealed he had a baby with another woman. Maybe that was too open, even for Tran?  (Photo: Noam Galai/Getty Images for Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week)

Lil Wayne - With multiple girlfriends and baby mamas, Lil Wayne is far from a one-woman man. Not a fan of monogamy (in case you can’t tell from his lyrics), there haven’t been any published feuds between any of his girlfriends, and they all seem to get along. At one point this past year, while he was publicly dating Christina Milian, he seemed to still have a fiancé (Dhea) and a side chick (Karrine Steffans) in place.  (Photo: Christopher Polk/Getty Images for iHeartMedia)

Dolly Parton and Carl Dean - The pair’s 50-year marriage is by far one of Hollywood’s longest unions, and the key to their success has been... flirting? "He has seen so much of it over the years," Dolly said of her hubby. "He’s not jealous and I’m not jealous of him. He knows I flirt. He flirts, too. Yes, it’s an open relationship, but not sexually and I would kill him if I thought he was doing that. He would shoot me, too. At the end of the day, we love each other madly."

Charlie Sheen - Known player Charlie Sheen was known the flaunt his multiple lovers and the fact that he loved to spread his "tiger blood," a fact that has made many of his sexual partners nervous after the recent admission that he was diagnosed HIV positive several years ago.  (Photo: Michael Buckner/Getty Images)
