Celebrities and their dating dilemmas

Celebrities and their dating dilemmas, Things may appear to come easily for celebrities but many insist dating is not one of them! They have chauffeured cars and wardrobes fit for royalty, not to mention luxury vacations and swanky digs to call their own, but at the end of the day, many stars have a hard time finding someone to share all of their good fortune. Click through the gallery to see which celebrities blame fame for complicating their love life.

Kelly Clarkson
The songstress has been very outspoken over the years about her disastrous dating track record, one she attributes squarely to the fact she's famous. "It's like an American Idol audition," she told "Access Hollywood" recently. "The worst ones are the most confident. And the same thing goes for my dating life. The worst guys are the most confident with me. And the ones you want to ask you out are intimidated, so yeah, it's not fun. Dating is hard!". kelly clarkson twitter,
Ryan Gosling
In an interview this month with The Times in the UK, the Canadian cutie, who dated fellow Canuck star Rachel McAdams for years, acknowledged how hard it is for actors to sustain a relationship. "When both people are in show business, it's too much show business. It takes all of the light, so nothing else can grow," he lamented. ryan gosling eva mendes,
Bradley Cooper
Since splitting with actress Renee Zellweger earlier this year, the hunky star has been linked to a bevy of beauties including Olivia Wilde and Jennifer Lopez, but he insists his all-consuming professional life gets in the way of having a private one. "It's really exciting, but it doesn't leave much time for a relationship," Cooper recently told Heat magazine, while adding he'd prefer to date someone famous. "Connection and chemistry are amazing things and if the other person is used to being in the media, it makes things easier," he said. bradley cooper renee zellweger,
Olivia Wilde
The newly single actress, who split earlier this year with her hubby of eight years, revealed in an interview with Marie Claire last month just how uncomfortable she is playing the field again, especially as a well-known actress. "It sort of puts pressure on this little sprout, and tramples it," she said. "If someone becomes involved with you, they know they will be photographed and written about and investigated in some way." olivia wilde ryan gosling aquarium,
Winona Ryder
Reality really bites for the actress, who told Elle magazine in January about an incident in a bar which had her questioning the potential suitor's motivations. "He was really cute, and we were talking, and then, like, he just said something about how he had always had a crush on me," she said. "And I was suddenly mistrustful about why he was talking to me. I wanted to be just a normal girl flirting with a normal guy. It's like you meet people, and they know this stuff about you." winona ryder most famous movie roles,
Jennifer Aniston
She may be everyone's favourite friend but when it comes to relationships, it hasn't always been smooth sailing for the actress, who has now finally found love again with actor/writer Justin Theroux. Shortly after her split from singer John Mayer in 2009, Aniston quipped to Now magazine: "Someone said to me that if I ever had the chance to become a movie star, grab it. It would make dating easier. Which is baloney." jennifer aniston justin theroux,
Rihanna
The Barbados beauty isn't shy when it comes to discussing her sexuality and the same goes for her dating life, which she says can be hard under the glare of the spotlight. During an interview with Ryan Seacrest in April, shortly after her split from baseball star Matt Kemp, Riri acknowledged her fame can be intimidating to potential mates. "It's a lot for them to handle especially being in the public eye," she said. "It can be difficult. It can be tricky. But there is going to be someone that is not intimidated or not afraid." rihanna music video northern ireland,
Britney Spears
During her all-access MTV documentary "Britney: For the Record" in 2008, the pop princess insisted guys were too scared to introduce themselves and likened her sheltered existence to living in a "fishbowl." Making her quest for love even more awkward, Spears revealed to Rolling Stone in 2009 she even had chaperones escort her on dates. Thankfully, she's since been able to ditch the support staff and currently enjoys one-on-one dates with former manager Jason Trawick. britney spears engaged jason trawick,
Adele
The British songstress is famous for singing about love lost and by the sounds of it, there won't be any love found any time soon either. During an interview with Glamour magazine in June, Adele insists she hates the attention dating in the public eye brings. "I've been on a few dates with celebrities but I don't like it. You go out and everyone looks at you both." adele ex boyfriend,
Eminem
The rapper has a reputation for being somewhat of a ladies' man - when he's not with on-off ex-wife Kim - but the truth is apparently far less titillating. In an interview with Rolling Stone magazine in April, Marshall Mathers revealed dating just isn't a part of his life. "I have trust issues. With women, friends, whatever. You always wonder what their real motives are," he said. "As far as going out, like dinner and a movie, I just can't - going out in public is just too crazy." eminem top songs,
