Katy Perry, Russell Brand certainly not the first

(NEWSER) - Russell Brand and Katy Perry didn't have a prenup—a romantic notion, until now, when it turns out Brand may be entitled to quite a bit of cash from Perry. The Frisky rounds up 10 more celebrity couples who skipped all that un-romantic paperwork:

• Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe: Whoops! By the time they divorced in 2005, Witherspoon was making considerably more ($20 million per film) than her hubby ($2.5 million), and California law split their earnings 50/50. Even so, she reportedly skipped the prenup once again when she married again .
