Ben Affleck Hot again just in time I go off Ben Affleck for quiver for long stretches. It’s not that he’s ever been at the top of the list but I can appreciate how, on paper, there are the elements of the package – tall, handsome, a strong dimpled jaw...and he was after all once By Lainey • Aug 23, 2010 10:00 am

Famewhores One happy Affleck family Taupe must have been tired of those photos of him with the others, of Ben looking happy with everyone else but her. Photo Assumption can be a very powerful game. And celebrities use it to their advantages too. So this is the family Affleck today on set in Boston. Jennifer By Lainey • Oct 20, 2009 01:28 pm
