Robin Thicke’s “Get Her Back”
Robin Thicke’s career really took off thanks to his mega smash summer hit “Blurred Lines.” But even though his career was reaching new heights, it ended up costing him his marriage. Thicke enjoyed his newfound fame and the attention from the ladies but wife Paula Patton was fed up with his infidelity and wanted out of their marriage. Thicke tried to woo her back with an entire album dedicated to her. He begged Patton to return home in “Get Her Back” and vowed to treat her right. The album flopped and Patton went ahead with the divorce anyway.
