Give Jean-Claude Van Damme points for honesty. We guess. Interviewed by The Guardian this week, in promotion of The Expendables 2 , the martial arts expert confirmed a long-time rumor: that he cheated on then-wife Darcy LaPier with singer Kylie Minogue during the 1994 filming of Street Fighter . “Yes, yes, yes.

I knew Thailand very well, so I showed her my Thailand. She’s a great lady.” The actor does have a point. Even at 43, Minogue can seriously work it . Really, it would be abnormal for any married man not to toss his vows in the trash just for one night with the beautiful artist. [Photo: WENN.com]
