Let Us Now Take Time To Mourn the Loss...

[dissention]

...of Bennifer. I know it's going to be hard to get over this split, but I am certain we will all persevere. It may take lots of strength to emerge from your beds in the morning, but I have faith in us all.

And now, the end is here;
And so we face the last tabloid story.
My friends, I’ll say it clear,
I'll mourn this loss, of which I’m certain.

They shared a life that was full.
They bombed every movie theatre;
But more, much more than this,
They did it the Bennifer way.

Regrets, they have none for you;
But then again, no reason for a Gigli mention.
They did what they had to do
And saw it through with low box office...estimations.

They planned each charted course;
Each careful step along California thruway,
But more, much more than this,
They did it the celebrity way.

Yes, there were times, I’m sure you knew
When Affleck shot down J. Ho's diva-tude.
But through it all, when there was doubt,
They ate it up and spit it out.
They faced it all and but never stood very tall;
They did it their way.

We've loved, we've laughed and cried.
We've had our fill; our share of heckling.
And now, as that ugly match-up subsides,
We find it all so amusing.

To think they didn't do much at all;
Except cheat us out of money,
No, oh no not them,
They did it the Hollywood way.

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: I cannot stand them...i'm tired of them being in the news every five seconds. She? Is a bitch on wheels and he's an ignorant ass. They filmed Jersey Girl in the town next to mine and were less than pleasant intruders :nod:

I have a friend who worked at MTV and he interviewed Affleck and said some nasty things about him. He says Affleck is very aloof and weird and that he gives people weird looks at the slightest provocation. He also said that he acts like a diva if something isn't perfect.

Want some more insider gossip? :laugh:

His refusal to put his cigarette out (he was on school property) and his response to my uncle (who had asked him) was horrible. My uncle can go on for at least an hour about those two...he's not a fan...definately not after that incident went down...lol. I imagine your friends experience wasn't so different :nod:

What happened?! The more I hear, the more of a prick he sounds like. :nod:

More gossip:

Enrique Iglesias was going quite bald and that's why he went through that damn beanie phase. Eventually, he got plugs. :nod:

Remember when Brandy was having her baby and turned it into a series for MTV? Well, the guy on film that she claimed was the father isn't the father; he was paid to play the father. Brandy supposedly slept around and doesn't know who the real father is. :eek:

I'm so sick of them. As the saying goes, Ben Affleck was put on Earth to make Matt Damon look like the smart one.

OHMAHGUH!!! I never heard that!!!!??!?!?!??!

WTF!!! That's the worst thing I've heard in a while! That's horrible! And I actually sat through 6 episodes of that crap! And weren't they married or something??

I guess that's why they divorced shortly after the baby was born. Poor child. Hasn't anyone ever heard of a DNA test? I had no idea Brandy was such a... well, you guys know. :rolleyes:

[GardenStateGirlie]

Well, my uncle said, "excuse me, would you mind putting that out? If not, you're going to probably have to pay a fine since you're on school grounds."

Ben's reply, "I'll pay the f*ckin fine..." (turns to his friends, laughs, walks into his trailer).

Wow. I thought someone died. It was only a matter of time before this happened. He was never going to marry her anyway.:)

He actually is smart. He went to Harvard and studied film. His family is not wealthy.

I don't believe they were married. :( I think it's rather funny, actually. As is Enrique and his plugs. :laugh:

[Mad4stevie]

Wow - I didn't hear about this. No television watching today . . .

What is the scoop? Who dumped who?

I will be glad that this is over - obviously something was very wrong a LONG time ago.

I personally don't think that you can ever really recover in a relationship after calling off a wedding. And I guess I should know - I called off mine with a week to go! :eek:

Never regretted the decision - EVER.

And when he walked out on Jen
After such a dull year
He looked up and saw her
He was standing with that blank face
She was hanging out of Greendress
Everything was the same
Except her acting was transparent

In that very moment
Ben and Jen were silent
So we might all read real news
For the first time in years
Everyone was smiling
Since the break-up was apparent
And her dress was tight and slinky
With the weight of her rear

And then I see Gigli videos packed on shelves in the store
Not showing any talent
And the couple is no more

Did you keep the gifts?;) :wavey:

Nope! I was glad to put as much distance between me and that event as possible :laugh: :wavey:

When you look at a lifetime of being miserable and getting to keep some gifts, or being free . . . well, there is no comparison!!

Actually, having already paid for everything is what sucked the most (and he and I put down a large amount of the cash).

That was almost four years ago, and he recentely married someone else (*whew*).

It was, by far, one of the best decisions that I have ever made.

:nod:

[Carolina Girl]

I heard the Bennifer news via CNN this morning, just a little blurb, and then during lunch saw them running an actual story! This is something for E! or Entertainment Tonight, not CNN.

Doll, nothing beats getting a free fondue pot and some hideous Royal Dalton teacups; NOTHING! :laugh:

Seriously, good for you. If you're happier, it's all that matters. :D Let him make some other chick miserable! :laugh:

I feel the same way when I turn to look at my ass and see that damned tattoo. That forced me to re-evaluate my choice of lifestyle and finally kick the Smirnoff and Schanpps to the curb. Oh, the effects of legal substances.

(I'm kidding, of course...:laugh: )

I just hocked Benny's million dollar rock
Used to have a little, now I've got a lot
Even if I took half price for the damned rock"

No doubt. He suffers from Ass envy. His will never be as good as hers.;)

Ain't it the truth...

Funny you mention that! I went to rent some movies and saw tons of copies of Gigli. I nearly died laughing.

JLo looked pretty down in the mouth at the Golden Globes last night. But then, that dress she was wearing did make her look like a Creamsicle.

I know - it was a pretty color, but not for her skintone. Plus, her hair was awful. I though Ellen Burstyn (sp.?) looked one of the best on the evening and she was wearing a similar color.

Ellen Burstyn looked very nice. JLo unfortunaetly had the matching Creamsicle lipstick on.:eek: I was surprised to see Fergie there. I thought Nicole Kidman's boob was going to fall out of her dress. Charlize Theron was fab. Do you remember Lost In Translation from our laughing fit in Chicago?

NK's dress looked like it was unfinished but she had to wear it - so she ripped it off of the sewing manequine :laugh:

What was out LIT laugh about - I remember laughing about it, but not exactly why we were laughing - was it the creepy but cute people on the street by where we had parked? Oh the brain cells are going fast :laugh:

I'm sorry I missed her. She was great in The Exorcist.

Esp. in "Resurrection" from 1980.


"Burstyn delivers a tour-de-force, Oscar-nominated performance as a modern-day miracle in this unforgettable story of love and devotion."

I LOVE her!

She a legend, in my eyes.

Ever seen her in "Requiem For A Dream"? It puts every other actress to shame and makes Julia Roberts (who actually won the Oscar that should've gone to Burstyn) look like a B-movie extra.
