V-Day Special 2006: Crown a Couple
1. Elphaba & Fiyero in Wicked — 27%
How They Meet: Salad Days. A little makeover for Elphie from roomie Glinda and suddenly she's reelin' in the hotties—including Prince Charming.
Why They Work: The grass is always greener on the other sister. Fiyero can't resist the bad girl of Oz and nobody can resist Fiyero. Oh, and they've both got a thing for saving the animals.
Why They Don't: Nothing'll kill a sexy mood like melting.
2. Clara & Fabrizio in The Light in the Piazza — 18%
How They Meet: In the piazza—where else? It's la-la-love at first sight for Italian stallion Fabrizio when he lays eyes on American blonde beauty Clara, on holiday with her mom, in a town square in Florence. Talk about old-fashioned romance.
Why They Work: Ah, the joys of young love. These two cuties are so gaga that even a language barrier can't stop the infatuation from flowin'.
Why They Don't: Parents just never understand, do they?! Clara's mother frets that her baby can't handle a big-girl fling, while Fabrizio's papa is buggin' for his own reasons.
3. Kate Monster & Princeton in Avenue Q — 13%
How They Meet: Puppet love is in the air when recent college grad Princeton pops into lovelorn Kate Monster's 'hood.
Why They Work: These cuties hit it off quick—and their sexual chemistry is off the Richter scale!
Why They Don't: Princeton's got a roving eye, which zeroes in on slutty lounge singer Lucy. Tsk tsk.
4. Mimi & Roger in Rent — 11%
How They Meet: From Spark to Flame! On X-Mas Eve on the Lower East Side, all it takes for these squatters to fall hard is a power failure, a lost bag of blow and an unlit candle.
Why They Work: With the same rough 'n' tough life tales under their belts, these stray cats speak the same language. It also helps that Roger's a real softy and Mimi's got the best rear below 14th St.
Why They Don't: Benny the landlord also has the keys to Mimi's kingdom—major monogamy no-no! 
5. Christine & The Phantom in The Phantom of the Opera — 10%
How They Meet: A haunted opera house, an unguarded dressing room—ripe young diva Christine was just asking for a hot encounter of the ghostly kind. And she got one.
Why They Work: With such similar penchants for melodrama and dark orchestral ballads, you can feel the fated or shall we say doomed? obsession from a mile away.
Why They Don't: Secret secrets are no fun, Mr. Masked Mystery… and neither is stalking, for that matter!
6. Babe & Sid in The Pajama Game — 7%
How They Meet: Working at a pajama factory can only mean slipping into something more comfortable. Oo-la-la!
Why They Work: She's attracted to his brawn and he's attracted to her spunk. Who says you can't check out the merchandise at work?
Why They Don't: Can union gal Babe really let down her guard and hook up with a guy on the other side of her fight?
7. Tracy & Link in Hairspray — 6%
How They Meet: When hair-hopper Tracy struts her booty-shakin' stuff at a dance show audition, TV dreamboat Link is ready for this jelly.
Why They Work: Nothing can stop the dance floor fever when it's hot, hot, hot. Despite Link's heartthrob fame, these groovers shake it up.
Why They Don't: Will Tracy's rabble-rousing wreck Link's rep? His big record-making dreams hang in the mix…
8. Belle & The Beast in Beauty and the Beast — 4%
How They Meet: This damsel in distress meets the princely manimal when she finds her father behind bars in his castle. To set Dad free, Belle agrees to swap places with him and become the locked-down lady of the house.
Why They Work: Under that rugged exterior, the Beast boasts some charm and potential. And smart cookie Belle's got it going on, winning over her furry friend by teaching him that reading is fun and fundamental.
Why They Don't: Well... there is the issue of her imprisonment. And that pesky witch's spell hanging over his hairy shoulders.
9. Corie & Paul in Barefoot in the Park — 3%
How They Meet: All you really need to know is that after the wedding bells rang, these eager beavers checked into the Plaza and didn't check out for six days. Hubba hubba.
Why They Work: Young lovers in New York in the decade of free love and art deco furniture—they have the world at their impetuous feet.
Why They Don't: Corie's head is in the clouds, Paul's feet are cemented to the ground. Something's gotta give.
10. Nala & Simba in The Lion King — 1%
How They Meet: In the Jungle, the Mighty Jungle. Love was only a twinkle in their feline eyes when the future sweethearts were childhood friends in the same pack of lions.
Why They Work: Same species, same youthful idealism... What more do you need to feel the love tonight?
Why They Don't: Simba's got a full plate what with defending the kingdom from evil. Can Nala's patience stand his multitasking?
