RANKING THE POWER COUPLES

Reality TV and a well-publicized sex tape made Kim Kardashian a Hollywood celebrity. Winning the Heisman Trophy for USC and getting involved in a well-publicized court battle has kept Reggie Bush's name in the spotlight despite a subpar second season in the NFL. Together, Reggie Bush, the football star, and Kim Kardashian, the sexy TV star, form one of the best power couples in the sports/entertainment world. Kardashian was recently spotted at the New Orleans Saints training camp cheering for her favorite Saint doing exactly what Jessica Simpson did last year to Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo. Distract him.

So which couple generates the most buzz? Jess and Tony? Bush and Kardashian? For every great man is a beautiful woman tugging at his shirt. Here's my top five sports couples:

5) Reggie Bush and Kim Kardashian: The BushDashian team is heating up internet sites and gossip magazines. Reports are that the couple is engaged. Let's hope they don't hire Ray J as the videographer.

4) Tony Parker and Eva Longoria: About the only thing worth watching at San Antonio Spurs home games is the site of Eva clapping feverishly for her favorite Spurs point guard, who probably is the only Frenchman living in San Antonio. Mercy! If Tony Longoria-Parker ever gets desperate and breaks off the marriage, Mario Lopez is ready to tango with Eva.

3) Tony Romo and Jessica Simpson: After last year's playoff exit, Cowboys receiver Terrell Owens wept on national TV when asked about his quarterback. Do you think Jess is capable of crying on cue if she was asked about Romo? Hmmm. Not sure. We may get the answer in a few weeks as HBO's newest soap opera "Hard Knocks: Training Camp with the Dallas Cowboys" airs this month. Get your popcorn ready!

2) Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen: The Brady Buuuuund...The Brady Buuuuund...Gisele arguably made the best rebound in the history of power couples when she snagged Brady, a three-time Super Bowl champion, after breaking up with Leonardo DiCaprio, who still hasn't won an Oscar. In his defense, Leo is the only crew member of the "Titanic" who still has a film career. Everyone else turned in their vests after 1998.

1) David Beckham and Posh Spice: Ahhh, yes. The royal couple. They set the bar back in 1997 when Posh, aka Victoria Adams, began dating the European soccer star and no couple has been able to challenge their hotness meter since. Their friends include Hollywood A-listers Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith and Sir Elton John. Even though "Becks and Posh" have long left Beckingham Palace, their star power is stronger than ever thanks to the stunning but calculated move from Europe to Los Angeles. Moving to LA-LA land bought Becks and Posh a few more years in the spotlight. Pure genius. Long live the King and Queen of sports and entertainment!
