In the latest edition of Details Magazine, Ben Affleck finally opens up a bit about the years where he dated — and almost married! — Jennifer Lopez, and the movie they made together Gigli!
Of course, it sounds like the Argo star actually wishes he could erase that time of his life from his and everyone else’s memory as he literally says that the lowest points of his life were years he spent alongside J.Lo, in front and behind the camera. Daaaaaamn! That’s frosty!
In his interview, he was incredibly blunt about his feelings, sharing:
“[It] was definitely the annus horribilis. I got shorthanded as That Guy — Jennifer Lopez, movies bombed, therefore he must be a sort of thoughtless dilettante, solipsistic consumer, blah blah blah.”
Throwing shade at Jennifer aside, we can see where he’s coming from that it would be absolutely exhausting being labeled like that. It took him quite a while to climb out of that slump! But, we feel like they’re both in a better place now — and that they both learned from it! So, in the end, we vote that it was worth it. Besides, what would life be like without Gigli?
Are you glad that Ben Affleck didn’t end up marrying J.Lo? OR, do you think they would have made a remarkable couple? Feel free to shout out your thoughts via the comment box below!

J.Lo’s Generous Gift For Beau’s 25th Birthday
According to People magazine, the superstar bought her beau, Casper Smart, a customized white Dodge Ram pick-up truck. A source told the magazine, “Jennifer had planned a fun day to celebrate Casper’s birthday, adding, she “knew that Casper really wanted a truck, and Casper was very excited about the generous gift.”
With a gift like that, it’s pretty much guaranteed to be his best birthday yet. Smart immediately made use of the practical present by driving himself and Lopez to his birthday dinner at an Italian restaurant in West Hollywood, where they were joined by friends. A photo of the two in Casper’s new ride shows the couple all smiles.
Comments on the Web were mixed about J. Lo’s generosity. While one fan worried, “Honestly, doesn’t she want a man who doesn’t depend on her money. She’s buying him.” “It was very nice for her to buy the current beau a truck.” Another applauded, “good for her for doing what she wants.” Another agreed, “She is HAPPY and thats what matters.”
The ”American Idol” judge was first spotted with the back-up dancer in the fall of last year, after her split with husband Marc Anthony.
