Movie Reviews and Previews Ben and Violet reunite Normally, I would not have much to say about Ben Affleck standing around outside, but, well, due to the ongoing and very serious wildfires around LA interrupting publicity schedules, it’s this or pictures of B-list celebrities at the farmer’s market, so…here is Ben Affleck with Violet Affleck, By Sarah • Jan 13, 2025 12:04 pm
Break Ups Catching up with JLo Haven’t posted about Jennifer Lopez all week – how did we go nine days into 2025 without a mention?! This changes now because there’s actually been some news about her, but we’ll jump back and forth between timelines. First, the biggest headline, is that the first full week By Lainey • Jan 09, 2025 10:53 am
Douchebags Ben Affleck: A Thanksgiving Update Late in the day, PEOPLE posted an exclusive about Ben Affleck and how he’d be spending American Thanksgiving. Maybe they’re rolling out coverage to ensure there’s enough content on the page for the holiday while the staff is off work and given that it’s generally quite By Lainey • Nov 28, 2024 11:28 am
BFFs Sexiest Men Alive: A Boston Summit What was I just saying in my post earlier today about John Krasinski being named PEOPLE’s Sexiest Man Alive? There is one city that has produced the most SMAs: Boston, Massachusetts. And right after his appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert to announce that he’s taken By Lainey • Nov 13, 2024 01:58 pm
Break Ups A JLo Weekend Jennifer Lopez has been relatively quiet the last few weeks by her standards. She covers the new issue of Interview but she actually hasn’t been papped all that much this month. Until this weekend. The most notable sighting is from Friday night when she was seen arriving at the By Lainey • Oct 21, 2024 01:34 pm
Break Ups JLo: “I’m not Teflon” I laughed when I read this quote from Jennifer Lopez this morning in the new issue of Interview Magazine. Then I screencapped it, circled “I’m not Teflon” in orange, her favourite colour, and sent it to Duana. Because, of course, it was Duana on our Show Your Work podcast By Lainey • Oct 09, 2024 11:25 am
Break Ups Celebrities at Dior and a Bennifer Update The connection between the Dior show in Paris today and Bennifer is Jennifer Garner. In my post yesterday about all the celebrities at PFW I mentioned that seeing Jennifer Garner in Paris was a surprise, and wondered what house had invited her, also noting that JLo was at Dior in By Lainey • Sep 24, 2024 01:00 pm
Break Ups Bennifer… again?! Interrupting our Emmys coverage because this was the biggest gossip story to emerge out of the weekend and by tomorrow, who knows, something else might come up with these two drama queens so we might as well get it out the way now. Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez were seen By Lainey • Sep 16, 2024 08:22 am
Movie Reviews and Previews JLo: Not About The House Jennifer Lopez is expected in Toronto tonight for the world premiere of Unstoppable. Sarah’s review of this film is coming on Monday and even though JLo is involved, and we all know the noise that accompanies her, especially lately, we should definitely also be talking about Jharrel Jerome. He’ By Lainey • Sep 06, 2024 11:03 am
Break Ups Bennifer: Mediation, Money, and Blindsiding Over the summer, it looked like Jennifer Lopez was trying. She showed up for Ben Affleck’s children, she kept her ring on, she kept her head up through all the reports and rumours that she was TOO MUCH, that she was the problem, that Ben finally found a way By Lainey • Sep 04, 2024 11:10 am
Break Ups Ben Affleck: Kick or No Kick? As noted yesterday in my post about the changing Bennifer narrative, Page Six first broke the story on the weekend that Ben Affleck has been spending time with Kick Kennedy and they may have been hanging out since June. Which would suggest that he had no interest in making it By Lainey • Aug 27, 2024 12:00 pm
Break Ups The Un-Bennifering Up until quite recently, the unravelling of Bennifer V2.0 has been excruciatingly slow, but also, for the most part, relatively civil. At least on Jennifer Lopez’s part. The reporting about her, and what a pain in the ass it was to be married to her, was no doubt By Lainey • Aug 26, 2024 02:35 pm
Break Ups The Official End of Bennifer 2.0 After almost an entire summer of divorce speculation, yesterday’s confirmation that Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s marriage is officially over couldn’t have been a surprise. If you’re a regular visitor here at LaineyGossip, you know that we’ve been bracing for it every weekend, wondering if By Lainey • Aug 21, 2024 10:57 am
Baby and Bump Obsession College Dropoff Season Where celebrity photos are concerned, summer means yacht season and typically it’s Italy where the paparazzi are guaranteed at least one set a week. A new late summer trend for pap photos is emerging though. And it’s not like celebrities have never sent their kids off to college, By Lainey • Aug 19, 2024 03:30 pm
Baby and Bump Obsession It could never be JLo Jennifer Lopez spent July in the Hamptons, then returned to LA in August, and still hasn’t been seen with Ben Affleck but, at the same time, another summer weekend has come and gone with no confirmation that their marriage is over (even though it looks like it’s definitively By Lainey • Aug 12, 2024 11:38 am
Break Ups Bennifer: Same city, still apart The word “still” before “apart” in the title there is probably unnecessary. “Still” suggests that it “apart” may be temporary, and that there’s a chance that might change. But it’s not looking like there’s a chance or any hope that whatever is going on between Bennifer will By Lainey • Aug 07, 2024 03:06 pm
