It hit the news last night that Ben dumped Jen. “bennifer” is offically over. I lost my bet. I said they would be married a month before filing for divorce. Darn! Ben was seen in Vegas laughing it up and Jen ws licking her wounds in Miami. Oh poor baby <eg>
The only point of interest in this break up is the 4 million dollar pink diamond engagement ring Jen received. What does she do with it now?
She could still wear it? nah that would be tacky
She can put it in a safe? what a waste
I know. She could auction it off. Doesn’t Christies do regular celebrity auctions? She could give the money to charity.
I wonder what Elizabeth Taylor did with all her wedding rings? Hmmm
Truly, there is something wrong with Jennifer Lopez. She is beautiful, with a wonderful body, the woman just screams “I am sexy.” “I like sex.” “One night with me will be heaven, in the middel of coitus with me, you will meet God and Jesus Christ in a dream and thank them.” Yet P. Diddy and Affleck run like hell from her.
(I will be pitted for this) JLo wants a kid. She does truly. She is 33 now, the biological clock is faintly ticking now. The woman wants to be happy, healthy and rich for the rest of her life. Her music career is probably near a close. She wants a baby, and wants one now.
If you are a man with at least twenty million dollars in the bank, have a thing for Caribbean women, and look good on camera (ala Guy Ritchie) call Jlo’s fan club and say that you want a date. Tell me how it goes.
Traditionally, if the woman breaks off the engagement, she gives the ring back, but if the man breaks it off, the woman keeps it. But we don’t yet know who decided the wedding was off, or if it was a mutual thing.
This was my first thought as well - right after the “Well, ya knew this was coming” response. She did have 3 decoy brides planned for this weekend. You gotta figure that the press could have sniffed out a ploy. If you look at any interview with Ben w/wo Jen there is some sort of bitter dig about her and the idea of marriage so in the end, it’s probably legit.
Not necessarily. IANAL but IIRC from my law classes, an engagement ring is a “gift with intent.” He technically could fight her in court to give it back, unless he gave it to her on a traditional gift-giving day (say, her birthday, Christmas, etc.). In that case he’d be outta luck.
Not that it matters. 3 million bucks is chump change to Affleck, it’s not like he needs the ring so he can go pawn it and pay the bills.
When you appear in a movie with your fiance as your love interest and every critic in the world pans you for total absence of chemistry … it’s time to give it second thoughts.
