It seems like the cool thing for celebrities to do these days is to display their "tough" side in public. Not only do they play big shots and bad asses on the big screen, but they are fully capable of translating those scripted rants and choreographed kung fu moves into their real lives. And what could inspire these acts of irrationality? Why, it would be none other than the grandest thing of all - Love.

Yep, that's why BetUS has posted odds on who will be the next celebrity involved in a love scuffle! When I graduated from Middle School, I thought I had seen the last of jealous boyfriends and insecure males - but I was obviously wrong. Apparently Love broods in us and explodes in spurts ALL the way through life!

So, who is the celebrity with the greatest odds of being involved in a love scuffle? Why, that would be Colin Farrell at +300! And why not? He likes to make his rounds with the ladies and, lord knows, one of them has got to be an overly jealous, possessive, insecure beauty. Mix that with a drinking Irishman who may dabble in a couple other choice illegal substances - and a love scuffle just doesn't seem too far behind!

Next likely to be involved in a fight for love is Robert Downey Jr at +500. I'm going to stick with the same reasons listed above for Colin, except add a couple decades to the age pool, and there ya go!

Eddie Murphy is up there at +500 also. This is kind of surprising, but perhaps in light of recent events (like being the baby's daddy of Scary Spice) he's got to face the female army that is the Spice Girls if he screws up here.

Richie Sambora and Russell Crowe are tied at +800. Now, Richie is closely linked to Heather Locklear and Denise Richards, who can both be linked to the relationship that is the epitome of love quarrels: Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee. Could this mean that Richie is due to clash fists with SOMEONE in the name of love? It's a possibility! And Russell Crowe, well, let's just say that if we keep him away from telephones while he's away from his wife, there will be no scuffling!

BetUS has some longshots posted on the love scuffle prop: Charlie Sheen at +1000, Halle Berry at +1500, and Jack Nicholson at +2500. For now, I think Halle is safe making love, not war, trying to have a baby. And Jack Nicholson is probably done with wreaking havoc as he is climbing the age ladder. Plus, he already proved his badass-ness in "The Departed." Charlie Sheen is the wild card here. He's got an ex-wife a couple kids to motivate him.

This is a tough one to pick, but I have to say I'd put my money on Eddie Murphy!
