Well, I did watch it last night because I was trying to go to be early and it was on.
To answer the question about her name after marriage, she said that professionally she’ll remain Jennifer Lopez (J Lo), but that privately she will of course change her name to Jennifer Affleck. And that J Aff just doesn’t have the same ring.
I also don’t think that Affleck is that good of an actor (I think that Lopez has shown better acting chops than him in three movies than he has shown in his best (Out of Sight, Selena, and The Cell). However, based on that interview, I certainly think he seems a mostly normal guy that I would enjoy hanging out with at a BBQ.
I get the feeling it’s the other way around, even with that whole pre-nup thing. Whenever JLo talks about him, she’s always got this adoring look in her eyes, “He is so intelligent, he’s taught me sooo much.” I know, I know, that isn’t a horrible thing, but something tells me that he can be terribly patronizing in real life, especially to a silly pop artist who comes “from the block.”
“Ben you are so peeeerfect. You’re spectacular in every way. You bring life into my life Ben. You almost make me forget all about tacos. Ooooh, tacos so good in my tummy yummy yummy give me more. I love you Ben, you almost make me forget all about tacos.”
“Let’s make a run for the border, if you give me money I will take off my top, I know exactly what to order, three tacos, two burritos and a soda pop!”
Eeewww, Ben Affleck spooge…
Actually, the words are “…baby let’s make a run for the border, if you pay, I’ll take off my top, do you remember what I’ll order, three tacos, two tostadas, and a soda pop”
Uh, what are you guys talking about? Was that really from the interview, or a parody? You make it sound like she was saying “Badges?!? We don’t have to show you any stinkin’ badges!”
And I just want to jump on the bandwagon and say that Jennifer Lopez isn’t all bad. As mentioned, she was excellent in Out of Sight. Really, really phenomenal – almost enough to make me excuse all the crap she’s dumped out onto the media since then. Almost.
And she may have gone too far with this new Gigli (or whatever it’s called) movie. I saw a trailer for it and wanted to climb under my seat. Unspeakably bad.
Personally I like J-Lo’s music and most of the Ben Affleck movies I saw (mostly the Kevin Smith stuff…) were pretty good…
But still, while I admire J-Lo as a singer and think that she looks great, I get the impression through interviews that’s she’s pretty bitchy and can’t really understand why anyone, especially Ben Affleck, would waste their precious freetime with her. shrugs
It was from the Jennifer Lopez episode of South Park. Cartman made one of those thumb-mouth hand puppets and named it Jennifer Lopez, whereupon it took on a life of its own and had a rewarding career as a pop singer – until the real Jennifer Lopez came down on the hand puppet like a ton of tacos for stealing the limelight away from her.
Wait-so they ARE getting married after all? I thought they had decided against it?
Also, having a custom dress made for her wedding doesn’t mean it isn’t simple-when we say “custom-made”, it could be as simple as having Mom make your dress for you. Although, in J-Lo’s case, it wouldn’t be Mom making it from a pattern, so yeah, it’s probably going to be extremely over-done and big and poufy.
