NBA legend Dennis Rodman is one of the most flamboyant stars ever. He did not care about the opinions of others. The Chicago Bulls legend was unapologetically himself. Even though it did not sit well with almost every team management, he was a fan favorite because of this. Rodman’s popularity rose because of his high-profile relationships as well. He was in a relationship with pop superstar Madonna and popular actress Carmen Electra.

Because of this, he always had a spotlight on him. The Queen of Pop Madonna even allegedly asked Rodman to marry her and impregnate her. Rodman has had three marriages, first with Annie Bakes in 1992 who he was dating for years, and had a daughter in 1988. However, Bakes filed for a divorce just 82 days after the marriage.
