Success.
In 2008, Lewis Hamilton became the first black man ever to win the Formula One World Drivers' Championship. The title comes with a decent salary, too: Forbes estimates that at the end of his career, he'll be worth around $791 million (and yes, you read that correctly). He signed a new five-year contract with his team McLaren Mercedes last year, entitling him to more than $100 million. And did we mention he's only 23? Scherzinger isn't doing too badly either as the lead singer for the Pussycat Dolls. Their album PCD went double platinum, and Nicole has released her own solo album as well. Other than that, she makes a bundle from cameos and by endorsing underwear and hair care products.

Attractiveness.
The Pussycat Dolls are all about sexiness, which Nicole delivers thanks to her killer body and gorgeous skin. Needless to say, she's been ranked on the Maxim Hot 100 more than once. Lewis's boyish smile and handsome features cause this couple to turn heads no matter where they go.

Popularity.
In March, around 450,000 people searched Google for information about Nicole, while only 60,000 searched for Lewis. Those figures place them about halfway down our popularity list.

Staying Power.
These two have been dating for almost a year, although Nicole has said that Hamilton is "the one." She was previously engaged to 311's Nick Hexum, but they broke it off in 2004. Besides problems that may stem from the age gap (Lewis is 23; Nicole's 30), these two seem pretty serious.

As a Cancer, Nicole is far more expressive and emotional than Lewis, who's a practical Leo. They'll have to respect each other's differences to make the relationship work, but if they're willing to put in the effort this bond could be deep. Kind of like the Pussycat Dolls' lyrics (couldn't resist).
