There are a ton of rich, famous, important people who have married their cousins. Rich, famous, important people who could marry whoever they wanted still chose to marry their cousins. And not all of them were from West Virginia. What the Hell, man?

This is a gross one. Like, it's hard for me to write something silly about this concept because it's just so gross. I mean, seriously?

I know that famous people get to get away with stuff that most of us wouldn't, but there's a line.

That line is drawn way before being able to marry your cousin even comes up. I guess in the old world it was more common. I mean, people didn't travel as much, so there were fewer options. Stuff like this makes me glad that I was born in the modern world, because things are way less gross.

So, here we go! Here are ten famous people who married their cousins. Just something to keep in mind next time you watch Footloose. Kevin Bacon dances dirty with his cousin.

If you need me, I'll be dry heaving somewhere.
