<v Speaker 2>supply Hello and welcome to Cancel, the podcast that looks

0:01:24.549 --> 0:01:28.109
<v Speaker 2>at silly celebrity crimes and assigns charges and sentences to

0:01:28.149 --> 0:01:30.429
<v Speaker 2>them so that we can all move on with our lives.

0:01:30.629 --> 0:01:34.389
<v Speaker 2>I'm Jesse Stevens and I'm joined by Claire Stephens and Claire.

0:01:34.429 --> 0:01:38.349
<v Speaker 2>Today we are not talking about a single celebrity. No, no, no,

0:01:38.549 --> 0:01:40.909
<v Speaker 2>which I mean we always say like this is like

0:01:40.989 --> 0:01:43.989
<v Speaker 2>we cancel celebrities. I mean, we recently did the Olympics,

0:01:44.269 --> 0:01:46.429
<v Speaker 2>so we're not very good with our own criteria. But

0:01:46.469 --> 0:01:49.869
<v Speaker 2>can we have boundaries we just don't operate within. No,

0:01:50.309 --> 0:01:53.709
<v Speaker 2>we're looking at the greatest love story never told, even

0:01:53.749 --> 0:01:56.949
<v Speaker 2>though I'd argue that it's been told more than any

0:01:56.989 --> 0:02:00.429
<v Speaker 2>other love story. Correct, We're talking about a relationship that

0:02:00.509 --> 0:02:04.709
<v Speaker 2>began with jigglely or gigly and ended maybe with this

0:02:04.789 --> 0:02:08.749
<v Speaker 2>is me. Now, we are talking about a union that

0:02:08.909 --> 0:02:12.629
<v Speaker 2>was first established twenty two years ago, before Jojo Siwa

0:02:12.989 --> 0:02:16.629
<v Speaker 2>was even born. We're talking about benefit.

0:02:24.789 --> 0:02:26.909
<v Speaker 3>Who used to seeing me around the house kind of

0:02:26.949 --> 0:02:31.709
<v Speaker 3>schleppy and kind of you know, and sweatpants and my strange.

0:02:31.349 --> 0:02:35.469
<v Speaker 2>Socks and thinking. I'm not saying I'm not pretty.

0:02:35.469 --> 0:02:37.589
<v Speaker 3>I'm saying you used to seeing me kind of like

0:02:37.669 --> 0:02:39.069
<v Speaker 3>the little old lady at home.

0:02:39.229 --> 0:02:41.549
<v Speaker 2>You're gorgeous, and we tell you something.

0:02:41.669 --> 0:02:44.269
<v Speaker 1>Every relationship there's a bull and a cow.

0:02:44.789 --> 0:02:46.869
<v Speaker 2>I'm the ball, you're the cow.

0:02:47.429 --> 0:02:47.749
<v Speaker 1>Got that?

0:02:48.229 --> 0:02:52.949
<v Speaker 2>I got a oh gosh what. Honestly, it cuts through

0:02:52.989 --> 0:02:56.309
<v Speaker 2>so many generations. It does because they have always and

0:02:56.349 --> 0:02:59.469
<v Speaker 2>they have never oh you know, yeah, for so long

0:02:59.549 --> 0:03:02.749
<v Speaker 2>they weren't yes, but once they were, and then they

0:03:02.789 --> 0:03:06.229
<v Speaker 2>were again again, and then maybe they weren't. And they're

0:03:06.269 --> 0:03:08.789
<v Speaker 2>also just such an interesting example of like, will you

0:03:08.909 --> 0:03:14.269
<v Speaker 2>get back with the should you? Should you? Jen? Jen,

0:03:15.149 --> 0:03:17.909
<v Speaker 2>You've had three marriages in between. She has been married

0:03:17.909 --> 0:03:19.909
<v Speaker 2>four times. She made a movie about it, in a documentary.

0:03:20.189 --> 0:03:23.749
<v Speaker 2>So this is about Betafer if you don't know, that's

0:03:23.789 --> 0:03:27.349
<v Speaker 2>about one Jennifer Lopez aka Jenny from the Block AKA.

0:03:27.429 --> 0:03:29.549
<v Speaker 2>We have done an episode on her. You'll find that

0:03:29.629 --> 0:03:32.989
<v Speaker 2>in the back catalog or in the show notes. Jennifer Lopez.

0:03:33.349 --> 0:03:37.269
<v Speaker 2>If you go hide, you can get then We've got

0:03:37.309 --> 0:03:41.989
<v Speaker 2>Ben Affleck sad Ben Dragon tattoo, Ben ugly tattoo.

0:03:42.029 --> 0:03:42.269
<v Speaker 1>Ben.

0:03:42.749 --> 0:03:46.389
<v Speaker 2>Best part of my idea is for about ten seconds

0:03:46.389 --> 0:03:47.869
<v Speaker 2>from when I pull up to the curb when I

0:03:47.909 --> 0:03:50.189
<v Speaker 2>get to your door, because I think maybe i'll get

0:03:50.229 --> 0:03:51.589
<v Speaker 2>up there and i'll knock on the door and you

0:03:51.629 --> 0:03:53.789
<v Speaker 2>won't be there. We have also done an episode on

0:03:53.869 --> 0:03:57.149
<v Speaker 2>Ben Affleck a lot of fun. But my structure for

0:03:57.269 --> 0:04:02.509
<v Speaker 2>today is as follows, Benefer, the first time, Benefer, the

0:04:02.589 --> 0:04:08.749
<v Speaker 2>second time, the wedding, this is Me now, divorce rumors.

0:04:09.069 --> 0:04:12.709
<v Speaker 2>If you're wondering about the pause, it's because of the ellipses,

0:04:13.069 --> 0:04:15.669
<v Speaker 2>which I think indicates because you know, her first album

0:04:15.749 --> 0:04:19.589
<v Speaker 2>was this is Me Then? No, I didn't know that. Yes,

0:04:19.589 --> 0:04:21.069
<v Speaker 2>it makes a lot more sense. That's why she now

0:04:21.149 --> 0:04:28.069
<v Speaker 2>has this is Me Now, Yes Me now? So benefit

0:04:28.789 --> 0:04:33.909
<v Speaker 2>the first time. Jen and Ben famously met on the

0:04:33.989 --> 0:04:38.269
<v Speaker 2>set of Giggly Giggly. I think it's jilly. I think

0:04:38.309 --> 0:04:41.949
<v Speaker 2>it's like I think it is too a romantic comedy

0:04:41.989 --> 0:04:44.549
<v Speaker 2>crime movie that a wise person once said was too

0:04:44.549 --> 0:04:47.309
<v Speaker 2>many genres. That was us, I said that. Do you

0:04:47.789 --> 0:04:51.309
<v Speaker 2>just for anybody who hasn't recently listened to the Jen

0:04:51.509 --> 0:04:53.749
<v Speaker 2>and or Ben episodes, you want to just give just

0:04:53.749 --> 0:04:56.669
<v Speaker 2>a short summary of what the film is about. Yeah,

0:04:56.829 --> 0:05:01.709
<v Speaker 2>so Ricky is Jlo is lesbian but not really, that's trick.

0:05:01.989 --> 0:05:04.229
<v Speaker 2>And then they have to cut off a thumb, but

0:05:04.349 --> 0:05:06.429
<v Speaker 2>the wrong thumb, and then they get in trouble, so

0:05:06.429 --> 0:05:09.309
<v Speaker 2>they're gonna get killed, but then they don't because they

0:05:09.509 --> 0:05:11.309
<v Speaker 2>talk their way out of it, and then they fall

0:05:11.349 --> 0:05:14.029
<v Speaker 2>in love even though Ricky is a lesbian. But Ricky's

0:05:14.029 --> 0:05:17.949
<v Speaker 2>not a lesbian anymore because she met Giggly. Giggly is

0:05:17.949 --> 0:05:20.069
<v Speaker 2>that his name Affleck? I don't know. I haven't seen

0:05:20.069 --> 0:05:23.229
<v Speaker 2>the film. I simply watched the trailer and I've never

0:05:23.269 --> 0:05:29.549
<v Speaker 2>seen anything more confusing and shocking in my life.

0:05:30.109 --> 0:05:31.309
<v Speaker 3>It means you're not my type.

0:05:31.549 --> 0:05:35.229
<v Speaker 2>Good night, And it's just a reminder that I think

0:05:35.349 --> 0:05:38.229
<v Speaker 2>when it comes to sexuality, like she just hadn't found

0:05:38.229 --> 0:05:41.069
<v Speaker 2>the right dick yet. Right, Yeah, that's exactly it. It's

0:05:41.189 --> 0:05:43.349
<v Speaker 2>the moral of the story fucked up? How could you

0:05:43.429 --> 0:05:46.669
<v Speaker 2>make that? Well? Speaking of how could you make that?

0:05:47.069 --> 0:05:50.469
<v Speaker 2>Martin Breast, It is widely considered to be one of

0:05:50.509 --> 0:05:53.709
<v Speaker 2>the worst movies of all time, and the director Breast,

0:05:54.229 --> 0:05:58.109
<v Speaker 2>that's his name, Come on now, at the time was

0:05:58.149 --> 0:06:01.589
<v Speaker 2>well known and well regarded. He never directed a film again.

0:06:01.989 --> 0:06:05.509
<v Speaker 2>He literally made a statement that once Giggly happened, he

0:06:05.589 --> 0:06:07.989
<v Speaker 2>knew he'd never be invited back to make more films.

0:06:08.349 --> 0:06:10.429
<v Speaker 2>He was like, I had a good run, but now

0:06:10.469 --> 0:06:14.189
<v Speaker 2>it's time for me to disappear. Do you think famous

0:06:14.229 --> 0:06:17.629
<v Speaker 2>people like the Jen and Ben's feel bad? I think

0:06:17.629 --> 0:06:22.549
<v Speaker 2>they leave in their wake a trail of broken director

0:06:22.629 --> 0:06:26.629
<v Speaker 2>creatations because, for reasons that they don't know, they agreed

0:06:26.629 --> 0:06:29.669
<v Speaker 2>to be on a project that they shouldn't have. And

0:06:29.789 --> 0:06:34.269
<v Speaker 2>Jen recovers, Ben recovers Martin breast He's like, I'm never

0:06:34.309 --> 0:06:38.109
<v Speaker 2>going to Remembin. Meanwhile, Jen and Ben are going jiggly.

0:06:38.229 --> 0:06:40.269
<v Speaker 2>Is the beginning of the greatest love story never told?

0:06:40.309 --> 0:06:45.749
<v Speaker 2>And Martin's like, from my perspective, that was Korea ending.

0:06:46.629 --> 0:06:49.989
<v Speaker 2>We told it. We told a love story on screen.

0:06:50.189 --> 0:06:53.989
<v Speaker 2>Was it a great one? Absolutely? It was homophobic. It

0:06:54.069 --> 0:06:57.189
<v Speaker 2>went to cinemas in the US, and then after three

0:06:57.229 --> 0:06:59.789
<v Speaker 2>weeks they just straight up stopped showing it because it

0:06:59.789 --> 0:07:02.509
<v Speaker 2>was upsetting people. I think they thought it was quite good.

0:07:02.549 --> 0:07:05.229
<v Speaker 2>To this day, I think they're like, what's the big problem.

0:07:05.269 --> 0:07:09.189
<v Speaker 2>It's like, go ask Martin. He's been redundant for twenty

0:07:09.229 --> 0:07:12.669
<v Speaker 2>two years. Go watch it, watch it, Go watch it

0:07:12.709 --> 0:07:14.709
<v Speaker 2>with some friends who are going to be honest with you.

0:07:15.029 --> 0:07:17.749
<v Speaker 2>After the filming wrapped in March two thousand and two,

0:07:18.069 --> 0:07:21.229
<v Speaker 2>Ben reportedly spent eighteen thousand dollars on a set of

0:07:21.269 --> 0:07:25.229
<v Speaker 2>advertisements to express how much he loved working with Jen.

0:07:25.469 --> 0:07:29.709
<v Speaker 2>Do you remember this yes. At the time she was

0:07:29.749 --> 0:07:33.869
<v Speaker 2>married to her husband Chris Judd, no relation to Chris Judd,

0:07:33.869 --> 0:07:37.109
<v Speaker 2>Bet Judd's husband. Yeah, yeah, yeah, as far as we know. Yeah,

0:07:37.149 --> 0:07:39.909
<v Speaker 2>she's got a thing of marrying people who have names

0:07:39.989 --> 0:07:42.909
<v Speaker 2>that other people have. For example, Mark Antony. I think

0:07:42.909 --> 0:07:45.829
<v Speaker 2>his name's Mark Anthony. Well, I don't know. Is he

0:07:45.909 --> 0:07:49.509
<v Speaker 2>the historical figure? No, but we'll get to here. Okay.

0:07:50.389 --> 0:07:52.429
<v Speaker 2>The ad that he took out in the paper, it read,

0:07:52.429 --> 0:07:58.589
<v Speaker 2>in part, you have shown kindness, dedication, diligence, humility, graciousness

0:07:58.589 --> 0:08:01.829
<v Speaker 2>of spirit, beauty and courage, great empathy, astonishing talent, real poise,

0:08:01.869 --> 0:08:04.589
<v Speaker 2>and true grace. It has been nothing but an honor

0:08:04.629 --> 0:08:06.549
<v Speaker 2>and a pleasure to work with you. I only wish

0:08:06.589 --> 0:08:08.189
<v Speaker 2>I were lucky enough to be in all your movies

0:08:08.229 --> 0:08:11.189
<v Speaker 2>with love and respecting gratitude, Ben Flick. And where did

0:08:11.229 --> 0:08:13.949
<v Speaker 2>you put that the paper? Okay? He could have just

0:08:13.989 --> 0:08:16.549
<v Speaker 2>told her that. You know how, sometimes you work with

0:08:16.589 --> 0:08:19.589
<v Speaker 2>someone and then you do a farewell card and you

0:08:19.629 --> 0:08:22.469
<v Speaker 2>just write a little message. Yeah, well that's what Yeah, yeah,

0:08:22.549 --> 0:08:25.029
<v Speaker 2>we just wanted to take out a paper in the

0:08:25.069 --> 0:08:28.629
<v Speaker 2>pap put it in the paper. This is the shit

0:08:28.989 --> 0:08:32.949
<v Speaker 2>I've been begging for on my birthday card from my

0:08:33.109 --> 0:08:36.389
<v Speaker 2>partner for seven or eight years. I would like to

0:08:36.429 --> 0:08:40.269
<v Speaker 2>be described as having beauty in courage. Claire, what does

0:08:40.309 --> 0:08:45.989
<v Speaker 2>beauty and courage mean? Okay, your courage is beautiful. Your

0:08:46.029 --> 0:08:50.149
<v Speaker 2>courage to be in Jigli, your courage to be Ricky

0:08:50.189 --> 0:08:54.829
<v Speaker 2>a turned lesbian. Okay, okay, no, no, you courageously make terrible decisions,

0:08:54.829 --> 0:08:57.789
<v Speaker 2>but you're still beautiful while doing it. Love that just

0:08:57.909 --> 0:09:01.509
<v Speaker 2>on Ben and his love letters, So I guess that's

0:09:01.509 --> 0:09:03.629
<v Speaker 2>when it started, but we'll touch on it later. That

0:09:03.669 --> 0:09:06.909
<v Speaker 2>he continued to write her love letters, and then on

0:09:06.989 --> 0:09:10.029
<v Speaker 2>the set of This Is Me Now, he got any

0:09:10.269 --> 0:09:15.709
<v Speaker 2>name and it was Penn Affleck. Honestly, they're just stand ups,

0:09:15.709 --> 0:09:21.629
<v Speaker 2>aren't made comedians. They both maintained that there was no

0:09:21.749 --> 0:09:24.829
<v Speaker 2>crossover with Jen's marriage, but it did end in mid

0:09:25.029 --> 0:09:27.589
<v Speaker 2>two thousand and two, and four seconds later, she was

0:09:27.589 --> 0:09:31.349
<v Speaker 2>pictured with Ben, who was taken by her graciousness of spirit.

0:09:32.309 --> 0:09:39.709
<v Speaker 2>Jen then released Jenny from the block. Ben appears in

0:09:39.709 --> 0:09:42.909
<v Speaker 2>the film clip kissing her on the bottom. They're both

0:09:43.029 --> 0:09:46.869
<v Speaker 2>wearing sunglasses, pretending to hide from the paparazzi. But it's like,

0:09:47.549 --> 0:09:50.669
<v Speaker 2>this is your music video, Yes you may and you're

0:09:50.749 --> 0:09:53.589
<v Speaker 2>running and you're being like, don't follow us, don't follow us.

0:09:53.669 --> 0:09:56.789
<v Speaker 2>Here I am, I'm Jen, And it reminded me of

0:09:56.829 --> 0:09:58.469
<v Speaker 2>I was in the airport recently and I saw someone

0:09:58.469 --> 0:10:02.869
<v Speaker 2>who was in all black, sunglasses on, cap, all of

0:10:02.869 --> 0:10:05.109
<v Speaker 2>these things, and I want, well, you're clearly fucking famous.

0:10:05.629 --> 0:10:08.269
<v Speaker 2>You're sign posting to me the famous. So I stared

0:10:08.269 --> 0:10:11.309
<v Speaker 2>at her NonStop for forty five minutes. Did discover that

0:10:11.389 --> 0:10:13.909
<v Speaker 2>she was a little bit famous. But I thought I

0:10:13.909 --> 0:10:16.109
<v Speaker 2>wouldn't have looked twice if you didn't have your baseball

0:10:16.109 --> 0:10:19.189
<v Speaker 2>cap on. Yeah, if you there's sunglasses on, and like

0:10:19.709 --> 0:10:22.989
<v Speaker 2>the all black and ensemble, just dress like a homeless

0:10:23.029 --> 0:10:26.269
<v Speaker 2>person like everyone else. Nobody else is wearing crisp, clean

0:10:26.749 --> 0:10:30.229
<v Speaker 2>black attire. After three months of dating, Ben was so

0:10:30.469 --> 0:10:34.109
<v Speaker 2>taken by Jen's true grace that he proposed with a

0:10:34.149 --> 0:10:37.309
<v Speaker 2>one point two million dollar diamond drink. That's so good.

0:10:37.429 --> 0:10:41.349
<v Speaker 2>All I'll say is you'd want to be sure. Later

0:10:41.429 --> 0:10:45.749
<v Speaker 2>that month, they started filming another movie together called Jersey Girl,

0:10:46.109 --> 0:10:50.229
<v Speaker 2>and Jen released her album This Is Me then, and

0:10:50.309 --> 0:10:52.949
<v Speaker 2>she said that Ben is her life and soul inspiration

0:10:53.029 --> 0:10:56.509
<v Speaker 2>for every lyric. Wow, there's a song a really cryptic

0:10:56.549 --> 0:10:58.669
<v Speaker 2>one I had to go through with a fine tooth comb.

0:10:58.789 --> 0:11:03.709
<v Speaker 2>It's called Dear Ben. Oh, I just cance trau myself.

0:11:04.349 --> 0:11:05.669
<v Speaker 3>I can't be with no.

0:11:06.589 --> 0:11:08.389
<v Speaker 2>And I would like you to do a dramatic reading

0:11:08.389 --> 0:11:10.109
<v Speaker 2>of some of the lyrics that I have printed out

0:11:10.229 --> 0:11:14.029
<v Speaker 2>right here from lyrics dot com. I would love nothing more. Okay,

0:11:14.149 --> 0:11:16.789
<v Speaker 2>this is from Gen Tibet. Does Gen write her own songs?

0:11:16.829 --> 0:11:18.549
<v Speaker 2>That's the thing I don't think so. I think that

0:11:18.589 --> 0:11:21.589
<v Speaker 2>what she does is talk about Ben. And then someone

0:11:21.629 --> 0:11:24.429
<v Speaker 2>writes the song about Ben okay, and they're like, maybe

0:11:24.429 --> 0:11:27.229
<v Speaker 2>we could call it like dear Lover, and she's like, no,

0:11:27.309 --> 0:11:31.949
<v Speaker 2>his name's Ben. I love you. You're perfect, a manifestation

0:11:32.189 --> 0:11:35.749
<v Speaker 2>of my dreams. You make my body feel about a

0:11:35.789 --> 0:11:39.149
<v Speaker 2>million different things. I think God made you for me,

0:11:39.669 --> 0:11:45.629
<v Speaker 2>a mix of passionate fidelities. Not right, we've all written

0:11:45.749 --> 0:11:48.429
<v Speaker 2>and like that. What does she have to rhyme when

0:11:48.469 --> 0:11:52.029
<v Speaker 2>she did fidelities to have to rhyme with something me me? So,

0:11:52.149 --> 0:11:55.189
<v Speaker 2>for example, I have a heart and you are the

0:11:55.269 --> 0:12:00.229
<v Speaker 2>key of You might have been better than fidelities. Yeah, baby,

0:12:00.389 --> 0:12:03.069
<v Speaker 2>you're so complete. I write this song to let you

0:12:03.109 --> 0:12:05.909
<v Speaker 2>know that you will always be to me, my last,

0:12:05.989 --> 0:12:10.909
<v Speaker 2>my love, my man, my child, a friend, child's interesting,

0:12:11.229 --> 0:12:15.149
<v Speaker 2>my king. Now I don't like when people call their

0:12:15.149 --> 0:12:20.109
<v Speaker 2>partner their king or their queen or their child. The

0:12:20.189 --> 0:12:22.149
<v Speaker 2>child thing was really interesting. It throws me. I think

0:12:22.229 --> 0:12:25.069
<v Speaker 2>she was missing. There was a beat and she had

0:12:25.069 --> 0:12:27.749
<v Speaker 2>no word and she went, ah child, Yeah, and the

0:12:27.749 --> 0:12:29.909
<v Speaker 2>person writing it went, that's odd, Jen, and she said

0:12:30.069 --> 0:12:35.269
<v Speaker 2>it's perfect for my song. Did Ben Claire, I don't

0:12:35.309 --> 0:12:37.469
<v Speaker 2>know what to tell you. She loves Ben. In July

0:12:37.549 --> 0:12:39.789
<v Speaker 2>two thousand and three, that's about a year since they

0:12:39.789 --> 0:12:44.629
<v Speaker 2>started dating, they did their first NBC primetime interview. It's

0:12:44.669 --> 0:12:47.509
<v Speaker 2>forty one minutes of them talking about their relationship. There's

0:12:47.509 --> 0:12:50.589
<v Speaker 2>at least two minutes dedicated to Ben saying that he

0:12:50.709 --> 0:12:52.269
<v Speaker 2>does not like doing the dishes.

0:12:52.429 --> 0:12:53.909
<v Speaker 3>It's not my favorite thing in the world to do.

0:12:54.229 --> 0:12:58.029
<v Speaker 1>So now I'm happy I don't have to do them.

0:12:59.549 --> 0:13:02.869
<v Speaker 2>I do do them. Ch Ah lovely riveting stuff. J

0:13:02.989 --> 0:13:06.789
<v Speaker 2>Loo is making chicken, just frying it, okay in case

0:13:06.789 --> 0:13:08.709
<v Speaker 2>you wondering. And he comes in and says, is that

0:13:08.909 --> 0:13:11.629
<v Speaker 2>fish or is it chicken? And then she says it's chicken.

0:13:11.669 --> 0:13:14.029
<v Speaker 2>And then they're like, oh, we're always frying stuff. Chicken

0:13:14.229 --> 0:13:18.069
<v Speaker 2>beef pork, and I'm like, a fuck me, why am

0:13:18.069 --> 0:13:21.829
<v Speaker 2>I watching this? It's not interesting. It's I think they

0:13:21.949 --> 0:13:25.469
<v Speaker 2>think that because they're them, anything they do is interesting. Yeah,

0:13:25.469 --> 0:13:28.709
<v Speaker 2>and because everyone follows them around. But it's like, I

0:13:28.989 --> 0:13:31.989
<v Speaker 2>don't need to be in on this joke where Ben's like,

0:13:32.069 --> 0:13:33.869
<v Speaker 2>I don't mind doing the dishes, and she's like, you've

0:13:33.869 --> 0:13:35.749
<v Speaker 2>never done the dishes, and it's like, in fairness, you've

0:13:35.749 --> 0:13:38.869
<v Speaker 2>been together for two weeks. Also, I don't think either

0:13:38.869 --> 0:13:41.349
<v Speaker 2>of you do the dishes, which is fine. I was

0:13:41.389 --> 0:13:45.829
<v Speaker 2>surprised she was frying, you have stuff. I think that

0:13:45.909 --> 0:13:48.429
<v Speaker 2>Ben and Jen when they're alone, they just sit together

0:13:48.509 --> 0:13:50.989
<v Speaker 2>and intensely look into each other's eyes and tell each

0:13:50.989 --> 0:13:54.309
<v Speaker 2>other how hot they are, which is actually fair and

0:13:54.389 --> 0:13:57.149
<v Speaker 2>valid and true. Yeah, yeah, is Ben is just like

0:13:57.349 --> 0:14:00.469
<v Speaker 2>your face and she's like, mmm, I think you're alone

0:14:00.589 --> 0:14:03.309
<v Speaker 2>intensely and kind of gyrate, and then she does this thing.

0:14:03.349 --> 0:14:04.989
<v Speaker 2>She has a dance move where she kind of caresses

0:14:05.029 --> 0:14:07.389
<v Speaker 2>her own neck. She does a lot of that. But

0:14:07.469 --> 0:14:10.109
<v Speaker 2>a few weeks later a story was published that claims

0:14:10.389 --> 0:14:13.189
<v Speaker 2>that on the night the Dateline interview aired, afflic had

0:14:13.269 --> 0:14:16.109
<v Speaker 2>visited a strip club and had sex with not one

0:14:16.189 --> 0:14:22.109
<v Speaker 2>but two women. Can you remember what his excuse was? Okay,

0:14:22.149 --> 0:14:24.349
<v Speaker 2>I'm making this up and I'm definitely wrong. He wanted

0:14:24.349 --> 0:14:27.949
<v Speaker 2>a glass. He wanted a glass of water, so he

0:14:28.029 --> 0:14:31.549
<v Speaker 2>ended up in a strip club. Yeah, and some conversation.

0:14:31.949 --> 0:14:34.709
<v Speaker 2>I hate when I'm thirsty and I'm driving and I

0:14:34.749 --> 0:14:36.229
<v Speaker 2>go I just want to drink of water. And then

0:14:36.269 --> 0:14:37.989
<v Speaker 2>I go to a strip club and I fall into

0:14:37.989 --> 0:14:41.269
<v Speaker 2>a vachina, two of them. A woman came out and

0:14:41.309 --> 0:14:43.349
<v Speaker 2>said she slept with Affleck that night, and then his

0:14:43.509 --> 0:14:46.389
<v Speaker 2>rapes came out and said, no, no, no, there's been

0:14:46.429 --> 0:14:49.749
<v Speaker 2>some confusion because all afflic did at the strip club

0:14:50.069 --> 0:14:53.509
<v Speaker 2>that night was have some H two O, which is

0:14:53.709 --> 0:14:57.869
<v Speaker 2>good for you. Yeah, and some lovely conversations. The man

0:14:58.109 --> 0:15:03.629
<v Speaker 2>was parked. Oh we honestly denying a man a glass

0:15:04.349 --> 0:15:09.789
<v Speaker 2>water in a strip club club, some lovely entertainment around,

0:15:10.469 --> 0:15:15.109
<v Speaker 2>but some music, some dancing. He likes dancing. He was thinking,

0:15:15.149 --> 0:15:18.509
<v Speaker 2>you know who'd like this, Jen, she loves some dancing.

0:15:18.789 --> 0:15:21.549
<v Speaker 2>He wanted someone to talk to. Who is he meant

0:15:21.589 --> 0:15:24.709
<v Speaker 2>to talk to j Lo? No, she wasn't there. Matt

0:15:24.789 --> 0:15:29.029
<v Speaker 2>Damien had lied. No, his mom. No, he needed to

0:15:29.109 --> 0:15:34.629
<v Speaker 2>talk to his friends. The stupers. Okay, they ended up

0:15:34.709 --> 0:15:38.469
<v Speaker 2>postponing their wedding because of media attention and eventually broke

0:15:38.549 --> 0:15:41.669
<v Speaker 2>up because of media attention or because he's love with

0:15:41.669 --> 0:15:44.229
<v Speaker 2>you other people You'll never know, We don't know. They

0:15:44.309 --> 0:15:47.429
<v Speaker 2>always spoke of each other very highly. Ben commended Jalo

0:15:47.549 --> 0:15:49.989
<v Speaker 2>on her great talent, and Jalo always said they broke

0:15:50.069 --> 0:15:52.189
<v Speaker 2>up because of all the media attention. That was their story.

0:15:52.229 --> 0:15:54.269
<v Speaker 2>They stuck to her. No one is a bigger fan

0:15:54.309 --> 0:15:57.589
<v Speaker 2>of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck. I think he's simply

0:15:57.629 --> 0:16:01.509
<v Speaker 2>a fan. I think he might just be a fan. Actually,

0:16:01.549 --> 0:16:06.229
<v Speaker 2>I don't think he's a boyfriend. I don't think he's

0:16:06.229 --> 0:16:18.749
<v Speaker 2>a husband. He's She's fine. We don't are fans, no benefit.

0:16:18.989 --> 0:16:22.349
<v Speaker 2>The second time, Affleck would go on to marry Jennifer Ganner,

0:16:22.589 --> 0:16:26.189
<v Speaker 2>who was the most different woman to Jennifer Lopez that

0:16:26.309 --> 0:16:28.829
<v Speaker 2>I personally know, but she has the same Firth name

0:16:29.149 --> 0:16:31.749
<v Speaker 2>and they have three kids, and Jlo would go on

0:16:31.789 --> 0:16:36.949
<v Speaker 2>to marry Mark Anthony and have twins. Interestingly, Jlo collaborated

0:16:36.949 --> 0:16:39.949
<v Speaker 2>on music and performed with Mark, as well as co

0:16:40.149 --> 0:16:43.549
<v Speaker 2>starring in a movie with him called El Cantante, which

0:16:43.629 --> 0:16:46.869
<v Speaker 2>was a biopic in two thousand and six, Madison Square Garden.

0:16:46.989 --> 0:16:50.469
<v Speaker 2>He filled that police up like that like he had

0:16:50.509 --> 0:16:56.389
<v Speaker 2>it all. He had everything, and you have me. Can

0:16:56.389 --> 0:16:58.189
<v Speaker 2>you move your ass so that I can see her?

0:16:58.229 --> 0:16:58.429
<v Speaker 1>Ask?

0:16:58.469 --> 0:17:01.949
<v Speaker 2>Please this one? You could touch this one? You can?

0:17:02.549 --> 0:17:06.069
<v Speaker 2>How was that success wise him? Why do you can't

0:17:06.309 --> 0:17:10.469
<v Speaker 2>bringing it up because it was ward winning or because

0:17:10.469 --> 0:17:13.109
<v Speaker 2>there's a bit of fun to be bad? The Evening

0:17:13.269 --> 0:17:16.589
<v Speaker 2>Standard wrote in a review the film and I quote,

0:17:16.989 --> 0:17:19.909
<v Speaker 2>did not go down well at the box office, and

0:17:19.949 --> 0:17:23.989
<v Speaker 2>neither Lopez nor Anthony knew anything about salsa, which is

0:17:23.989 --> 0:17:28.109
<v Speaker 2>what the film was about. It has a twenty five

0:17:28.149 --> 0:17:30.589
<v Speaker 2>percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes. You know who I think

0:17:30.629 --> 0:17:35.469
<v Speaker 2>went and saw it, Ben, I think first opportunity, Ben,

0:17:35.789 --> 0:17:39.389
<v Speaker 2>front seat, popcorn and a slurpy and he stood up

0:17:39.389 --> 0:17:43.029
<v Speaker 2>at the end. He did what a performance. So while

0:17:43.029 --> 0:17:46.909
<v Speaker 2>that had twenty five percent, Jiggly Giggly really has six

0:17:46.949 --> 0:17:49.909
<v Speaker 2>percent on Rotten Tomatoes, So actually twenty five percent isn't

0:17:49.949 --> 0:17:53.869
<v Speaker 2>bad anyway. Anthony and Lopez officially divorced in twenty fourteen,

0:17:54.189 --> 0:17:58.069
<v Speaker 2>while Affleck and Ghana officially divorced in twenty eighteen. So

0:17:58.149 --> 0:17:59.709
<v Speaker 2>now what we've got is a single Ben and a

0:17:59.709 --> 0:18:05.069
<v Speaker 2>single gen not really because Jen was with the young guy.

0:18:05.389 --> 0:18:08.829
<v Speaker 2>The younger like a backup, backup down, and then Ben

0:18:08.909 --> 0:18:12.309
<v Speaker 2>was on Raia trying to like slide into dms and

0:18:13.029 --> 0:18:16.709
<v Speaker 2>people were sharing sad messages. You know, I leave the

0:18:16.829 --> 0:18:20.709
<v Speaker 2>man alone to be on his apps.

0:18:20.829 --> 0:18:21.989
<v Speaker 1>Why did you unmatch me?

0:18:22.629 --> 0:18:24.789
<v Speaker 2>It's me let him be on his apps. And he

0:18:24.909 --> 0:18:27.389
<v Speaker 2>was in a moment where we've all been in this moment,

0:18:27.429 --> 0:18:29.989
<v Speaker 2>but we've also all seen men in this moment where

0:18:30.029 --> 0:18:35.709
<v Speaker 2>they start texting everyone because he's life. Yes, I have

0:18:35.749 --> 0:18:39.629
<v Speaker 2>my friends the strippers, but I need my other friends,

0:18:39.669 --> 0:18:43.949
<v Speaker 2>such as my exes. So he did start reaching out.

0:18:44.189 --> 0:18:46.829
<v Speaker 2>He probably reached out to Jennifer Ghannah and she said,

0:18:46.909 --> 0:18:51.989
<v Speaker 2>I'm the mother of his children where divorced j Lo.

0:18:52.709 --> 0:18:57.909
<v Speaker 2>Great performance in Elkompunbe. Actually just to be fan of

0:18:57.949 --> 0:19:01.909
<v Speaker 2>everything you've been doing lately. In May twenty twenty one,

0:19:02.149 --> 0:19:05.869
<v Speaker 2>nearly twenty years since they first got together, they were photographed.

0:19:06.189 --> 0:19:09.149
<v Speaker 2>They were then photographed at Lopez's rental home in Miami,

0:19:09.629 --> 0:19:12.469
<v Speaker 2>and Ben was wearing a watch that Jalo had given

0:19:12.549 --> 0:19:15.109
<v Speaker 2>him back in two thousand and two. If I were

0:19:15.189 --> 0:19:18.229
<v Speaker 2>Jennifer Ghana, I'd be pissed. I'd be like, why didn't

0:19:18.269 --> 0:19:20.589
<v Speaker 2>we throw that out? Where have you been keep them

0:19:20.589 --> 0:19:23.669
<v Speaker 2>a watch mate? Mm hmm, it ain't right you kept

0:19:23.669 --> 0:19:26.429
<v Speaker 2>that in your box. And then a few things happened.

0:19:27.389 --> 0:19:29.469
<v Speaker 2>The first is that a bunch of pictures appeared of

0:19:29.509 --> 0:19:33.989
<v Speaker 2>them kissing and not not dry humping. All I'll say

0:19:34.229 --> 0:19:36.669
<v Speaker 2>is that they are at No Boo. I know nothing

0:19:36.669 --> 0:19:41.829
<v Speaker 2>about anything, but I know No Boo, fancy restaurant where

0:19:41.869 --> 0:19:44.629
<v Speaker 2>you go to get photo where you're going to get photographed,

0:19:45.069 --> 0:19:47.469
<v Speaker 2>And I'm sure a state costs like four hundred dollars.

0:19:47.549 --> 0:19:49.589
<v Speaker 2>And if I were trying to be discreet about my

0:19:49.709 --> 0:19:53.869
<v Speaker 2>new relationship, I wouldn't be humping at Noboo. But that's fine.

0:19:53.989 --> 0:19:57.069
<v Speaker 2>They were ready for people to know. They later confirmed

0:19:57.069 --> 0:20:00.589
<v Speaker 2>the relationship and started appearing on red carpets together. On

0:20:00.669 --> 0:20:05.389
<v Speaker 2>Valentine's Day, Affleck directed and gifted Lopez a remix of

0:20:05.389 --> 0:20:09.109
<v Speaker 2>her song on My Way. And if I were their therapist,

0:20:09.549 --> 0:20:13.389
<v Speaker 2>which I'm not, I would say less working together. I

0:20:13.429 --> 0:20:16.509
<v Speaker 2>would say to j Loo, Actually, you don't need to

0:20:16.549 --> 0:20:18.709
<v Speaker 2>star in a film with your husband. It's a specific

0:20:18.789 --> 0:20:21.909
<v Speaker 2>issue if most of us don't need to work. No,

0:20:22.509 --> 0:20:27.029
<v Speaker 2>but you can love someone and not make a film. Yeah,

0:20:27.389 --> 0:20:30.909
<v Speaker 2>or write a song, collaborate together on a project. You

0:20:30.949 --> 0:20:33.109
<v Speaker 2>can do those separately, Claire, I would like to show

0:20:33.149 --> 0:20:38.349
<v Speaker 2>you this, so just for context, Ben gives this to

0:20:40.109 --> 0:20:43.669
<v Speaker 2>Jen on Valentine's Day and then Jen shares it. No newsletter,

0:20:43.709 --> 0:20:45.669
<v Speaker 2>you know that newsletter below down or whatever? Yeah, I

0:20:45.669 --> 0:20:48.309
<v Speaker 2>think I subscribe, Yeah, yeah, yeah, And it's like, did

0:20:48.349 --> 0:20:49.269
<v Speaker 2>Ben say you could share that?

0:20:52.549 --> 0:20:57.669
<v Speaker 1>I always knew you, even when not did know? You

0:20:58.189 --> 0:21:03.229
<v Speaker 1>don't make sense, but it do. I was on my lady,

0:21:03.349 --> 0:21:12.189
<v Speaker 1>you felt heavy, like.

0:21:12.389 --> 0:21:20.429
<v Speaker 2>Hell, Heaven sent me through pause. I moved, give me,

0:21:20.789 --> 0:21:23.429
<v Speaker 2>I moved. I think you can tell. He's an award

0:21:23.469 --> 0:21:27.589
<v Speaker 2>winning film man, Claire. It's terrible and it looks like

0:21:27.669 --> 0:21:30.949
<v Speaker 2>he made it in that terrible like video editor that

0:21:31.029 --> 0:21:33.309
<v Speaker 2>we all used in like year ten. Yeah, we had

0:21:33.349 --> 0:21:35.709
<v Speaker 2>it on our laptops. Then in all the images of him,

0:21:35.909 --> 0:21:39.029
<v Speaker 2>which don't make any sense, are completely out of context.

0:21:39.309 --> 0:21:42.109
<v Speaker 2>He's always smoking and looking sad, and he's made it

0:21:42.149 --> 0:21:45.349
<v Speaker 2>black and white and grainy. Yes, he's definitely used. And

0:21:45.389 --> 0:21:48.949
<v Speaker 2>then he just puts man date yet. But Matt's like,

0:21:49.029 --> 0:21:52.829
<v Speaker 2>don't drag me into this shit. Why do I feel things? Huh?

0:21:53.509 --> 0:21:57.629
<v Speaker 2>Because it's lovely, it's not lovely. Yeah, it's quite beautiful.

0:21:57.669 --> 0:22:01.549
<v Speaker 2>Jim Ghana and him were together for seven and we're

0:22:01.589 --> 0:22:06.229
<v Speaker 2>singing a song about being on our yellow brick road

0:22:06.549 --> 0:22:10.109
<v Speaker 2>that was always leading, that was always leading back to you.

0:22:10.589 --> 0:22:14.189
<v Speaker 2>And you've done this weird as shit remix video where

0:22:14.189 --> 0:22:18.309
<v Speaker 2>you've like redone her video clip with also like clips

0:22:18.309 --> 0:22:20.949
<v Speaker 2>from Jenny from the Block ye, and there's some well

0:22:20.989 --> 0:22:24.829
<v Speaker 2>she's standing like on a city. It's very j low,

0:22:25.589 --> 0:22:29.149
<v Speaker 2>very very j Lo. In twenty twenty two, Lopez announced

0:22:29.149 --> 0:22:32.029
<v Speaker 2>that they're engaged again, twenty years after the first time.

0:22:32.589 --> 0:22:35.429
<v Speaker 2>In July, they filed their marriage license in Vegas and

0:22:35.469 --> 0:22:39.349
<v Speaker 2>everyone was like, how low key they have changed. They

0:22:39.349 --> 0:22:42.469
<v Speaker 2>have learned, they have evolved. Good for you, because it's

0:22:42.509 --> 0:22:46.149
<v Speaker 2>like Jennifer Lopez needs to learn there's an inverse relationship

0:22:46.149 --> 0:22:47.949
<v Speaker 2>between how much you spend on your wedding and the

0:22:47.989 --> 0:22:51.269
<v Speaker 2>fuss that you make and how long that marriage lasts. Yeah,

0:22:51.309 --> 0:22:54.189
<v Speaker 2>and last time, why did their relationship end because of

0:22:54.189 --> 0:22:56.669
<v Speaker 2>the media, media attention. So I've just got to be

0:22:56.709 --> 0:22:59.509
<v Speaker 2>a bit more lokay. Ben doesn't like it, he doesn't

0:22:59.629 --> 0:23:02.109
<v Speaker 2>like the fuss. Jess. I've just got something to add,

0:23:02.669 --> 0:23:05.829
<v Speaker 2>which is, do you remember the Grammys last year, Ben

0:23:05.869 --> 0:23:09.349
<v Speaker 2>and Jen sitting in the audience, and Ben just generally

0:23:09.349 --> 0:23:12.469
<v Speaker 2>does look happy to be so many having a shit

0:23:13.069 --> 0:23:14.909
<v Speaker 2>so many. I think this might have been off the

0:23:14.909 --> 0:23:17.229
<v Speaker 2>back of the honeymoon that he didn't really Yeah, he

0:23:17.349 --> 0:23:18.909
<v Speaker 2>just wasn't having a great time and he was I'd

0:23:19.029 --> 0:23:22.509
<v Speaker 2>rather be at home under the Eiffel Tower and now

0:23:22.549 --> 0:23:23.829
<v Speaker 2>I'm at the Grammys. You don't want to have a

0:23:23.829 --> 0:23:26.949
<v Speaker 2>little tif for the Grammys. And there's this footage of

0:23:27.069 --> 0:23:30.229
<v Speaker 2>Trevor Noah sitting beside them, and Trevoroah is a friend

0:23:30.269 --> 0:23:32.349
<v Speaker 2>of the family. Yeah, we'll touch on Trevor a little

0:23:32.349 --> 0:23:35.469
<v Speaker 2>bit later, but he is sitting there, and just to

0:23:35.509 --> 0:23:37.749
<v Speaker 2>the right of him, you can see Ben and Jen

0:23:37.909 --> 0:23:40.669
<v Speaker 2>arguing that she is having a stern word to him.

0:23:40.709 --> 0:23:42.949
<v Speaker 2>She's kind of like pointing her finger at his chest

0:23:43.229 --> 0:23:46.669
<v Speaker 2>and he is looking cranky, and lip readers have said

0:23:46.869 --> 0:23:50.509
<v Speaker 2>that she was saying, cheer up and look more motivated.

0:23:50.789 --> 0:23:53.509
<v Speaker 2>Sad Ben is bringing down the fire, yeah, because that's

0:23:53.549 --> 0:23:56.309
<v Speaker 2>the thing that camera pans. Everyone's looking excited and clapping

0:23:56.829 --> 0:23:59.589
<v Speaker 2>and Ben, Ben doesn't want to be look like a

0:23:59.669 --> 0:24:03.349
<v Speaker 2>rain cloud, and Jen like this is one of the

0:24:03.389 --> 0:24:06.629
<v Speaker 2>greatest nights of the Year. I look stunning. Look at

0:24:06.629 --> 0:24:09.549
<v Speaker 2>my skin, look at my hair, look at my dress.

0:24:09.589 --> 0:24:11.909
<v Speaker 2>I've got old dressed up and you can't even do

0:24:11.989 --> 0:24:14.989
<v Speaker 2>a little smile for the camera. Totally get that. I

0:24:15.029 --> 0:24:18.349
<v Speaker 2>actually don't think that that is necessarily an indication that

0:24:18.389 --> 0:24:21.029
<v Speaker 2>they were in trouble at that point, because we've all

0:24:21.069 --> 0:24:24.149
<v Speaker 2>done it. We've all turned to our partner and said, Okay,

0:24:24.189 --> 0:24:26.949
<v Speaker 2>I need you to bring more. Yeah, I know we're

0:24:26.989 --> 0:24:28.989
<v Speaker 2>in a shit situation with my family right now and

0:24:28.989 --> 0:24:30.909
<v Speaker 2>there being insufferable, but I'm going to need you to

0:24:30.989 --> 0:24:33.509
<v Speaker 2>suck it up. Yep. Sometimes we turn to each other

0:24:33.549 --> 0:24:38.069
<v Speaker 2>and we say lift, I need you to lift energetically. Yeah,

0:24:38.109 --> 0:24:40.509
<v Speaker 2>and that's what That's what Jenn was saying, man sign

0:24:40.549 --> 0:24:43.309
<v Speaker 2>of a healthy relationship at the Grammys. Lyft. So they

0:24:43.309 --> 0:24:46.029
<v Speaker 2>get married in Vegas and I remember being like, honestly

0:24:46.589 --> 0:24:49.029
<v Speaker 2>never thought she was like, this is just an old dress,

0:24:49.069 --> 0:24:51.109
<v Speaker 2>and like I was like, yeah, you're still sharing it,

0:24:51.109 --> 0:24:54.509
<v Speaker 2>but good on you. Benefit have not changed after all,

0:24:54.949 --> 0:24:59.109
<v Speaker 2>Claire the wedding. The wedding took place at Afflex eighty

0:24:59.189 --> 0:25:03.149
<v Speaker 2>seven acre compound in Georgia. There was a rehearsal. J

0:25:03.309 --> 0:25:05.509
<v Speaker 2>Loo wore a gold frock. There was a horse with

0:25:05.589 --> 0:25:09.429
<v Speaker 2>pink flowers in its mate. She wore three Ralph Lauren gowns.

0:25:09.469 --> 0:25:11.429
<v Speaker 2>There is a drama image of j Loo in a

0:25:11.509 --> 0:25:15.389
<v Speaker 2>gown on a swing surrounded by chandeliers. Most of the

0:25:15.389 --> 0:25:18.949
<v Speaker 2>photos I've seen do not feature or allude to Ben,

0:25:19.149 --> 0:25:21.629
<v Speaker 2>and I do not mind. She wore more than two

0:25:21.669 --> 0:25:25.509
<v Speaker 2>million dollars worth of diamonds and pearls. Jay Shetty officiated

0:25:25.549 --> 0:25:28.429
<v Speaker 2>the ceremony. There were fireworks, there was a post wedding

0:25:28.469 --> 0:25:32.149
<v Speaker 2>Sunday brunch. I saw photos, and there were donuts. What

0:25:32.309 --> 0:25:35.229
<v Speaker 2>an event. It is believed that the wedding cost them

0:25:35.309 --> 0:25:39.109
<v Speaker 2>half a million Australian dollars. Then they went on their honeymoon,

0:25:39.269 --> 0:25:45.309
<v Speaker 2>and that's when sad Ben emerged. Claire, please explain sad Ben. Okay.

0:25:45.389 --> 0:25:48.869
<v Speaker 2>The thing about Ben is that sometimes he's photographed and

0:25:49.469 --> 0:25:53.269
<v Speaker 2>the spirit has left his soul, and in his eyes

0:25:53.309 --> 0:25:57.909
<v Speaker 2>there is only emptiness and hollowness and an existential thread,

0:25:58.109 --> 0:26:01.909
<v Speaker 2>and it scenes that all the weight of living has

0:26:02.029 --> 0:26:04.709
<v Speaker 2>fallen upon his shoulders. The weight of the universe is

0:26:04.709 --> 0:26:08.389
<v Speaker 2>sitting on his slumped shoulders as he has a Starbucks

0:26:08.389 --> 0:26:12.549
<v Speaker 2>coffee and aigarette and he's just like and I just

0:26:12.789 --> 0:26:15.829
<v Speaker 2>I love Jennifer Lopez. I don't think she has that

0:26:15.909 --> 0:26:18.749
<v Speaker 2>same emotional experience. I think she's quite a happy lady.

0:26:18.909 --> 0:26:23.509
<v Speaker 2>I think she's upbeat. I think she's like where in France? Ben?

0:26:24.069 --> 0:26:26.109
<v Speaker 2>And Ben's like, it doesn't matter where I am as

0:26:26.109 --> 0:26:29.469
<v Speaker 2>a Sylvia Placid, I'm stewing in my own sour air.

0:26:30.629 --> 0:26:33.669
<v Speaker 2>Is how Ben is? Yeah, he's just dark cloud, dark

0:26:33.709 --> 0:26:36.869
<v Speaker 2>cloud Ben. The images that went viral of Ben Aras

0:26:36.909 --> 0:26:40.629
<v Speaker 2>follows Ben asleep on a boat, Ben looking sad on

0:26:40.789 --> 0:26:44.509
<v Speaker 2>river cruise, Ben crying in a restaurant. Did the Eiffel Tower?

0:26:44.589 --> 0:26:46.349
<v Speaker 2>I should go up? But it was just under the

0:26:46.349 --> 0:26:51.549
<v Speaker 2>Eifel Tower, Ben looking exasperated Claire, who was very sad.

0:26:51.589 --> 0:26:55.069
<v Speaker 2>Ben on his euro summer. Now, no one deserves to

0:26:55.109 --> 0:26:57.909
<v Speaker 2>be stalked by paparazzi. I truly believe that, and you

0:26:57.909 --> 0:27:01.469
<v Speaker 2>can see how distressed it makes them both. But I reckon.

0:27:01.589 --> 0:27:04.429
<v Speaker 2>At this point, Ben is regretting the film clip he

0:27:04.469 --> 0:27:07.669
<v Speaker 2>made j Lo where he basically did a slide show

0:27:07.749 --> 0:27:09.629
<v Speaker 2>and then she said it to all her followers. Yes,

0:27:09.829 --> 0:27:14.589
<v Speaker 2>and also the wedding and then also such a flashy

0:27:14.669 --> 0:27:17.789
<v Speaker 2>honeymoon being fla. I think there are a place that

0:27:17.869 --> 0:27:21.349
<v Speaker 2>you could have gone. Yeah less and then they recreated the.

0:27:21.309 --> 0:27:26.109
<v Speaker 4>Thing on her bottom and I'm like, guys, we've been

0:27:26.189 --> 0:27:34.509
<v Speaker 4>here before, twenty years ago.

0:27:37.069 --> 0:27:41.669
<v Speaker 2>This is me now. I don't know how to tell

0:27:41.709 --> 0:27:44.629
<v Speaker 2>you what this is about. I watched it this morning.

0:27:45.469 --> 0:27:47.869
<v Speaker 2>I had it on in the background. I had it on.

0:27:48.629 --> 0:27:50.789
<v Speaker 2>Luna was just crawling around. I was trying to watch it.

0:27:50.749 --> 0:27:53.389
<v Speaker 2>It's the first film she's ever been exposed to. And

0:27:53.429 --> 0:27:56.949
<v Speaker 2>she stopped and said, what is this? What the fuck

0:27:57.069 --> 0:27:59.509
<v Speaker 2>is this? Make it end? I was like, honey, I

0:27:59.549 --> 0:28:02.509
<v Speaker 2>don't know. It's a visual album, but it has like

0:28:02.549 --> 0:28:05.589
<v Speaker 2>a script source a musical, and there's a wedding and

0:28:05.669 --> 0:28:07.949
<v Speaker 2>too many famous people are in it. And there is

0:28:07.989 --> 0:28:10.789
<v Speaker 2>a line that she wrote because she wrote this that

0:28:10.909 --> 0:28:14.269
<v Speaker 2>says she's smart, she's beautiful. Why does she always need

0:28:14.309 --> 0:28:21.549
<v Speaker 2>to be with someone? Which I respect Jen Jen. I

0:28:21.749 --> 0:28:25.589
<v Speaker 2>watched it, and in terms of the celebrity cameos, I

0:28:25.669 --> 0:28:28.989
<v Speaker 2>was like, this is so interesting because it's an insight

0:28:29.109 --> 0:28:33.149
<v Speaker 2>into who can't say no exactly because everyone was asked.

0:28:33.629 --> 0:28:36.309
<v Speaker 2>Everyone Rizzo said no, I can't do that. If I

0:28:36.349 --> 0:28:38.229
<v Speaker 2>was a Hollywood person, would I have been in it

0:28:38.549 --> 0:28:41.509
<v Speaker 2>absolutely absolutely, you never know I was there the idea

0:28:41.509 --> 0:28:45.669
<v Speaker 2>of hurting Jen's feelings when she seems like a sweet person. Okay,

0:28:45.709 --> 0:28:48.709
<v Speaker 2>So there's This is Me Now, and there's also The

0:28:48.709 --> 0:28:51.349
<v Speaker 2>Greatest Love Story Never Told, which is a documentary about

0:28:51.349 --> 0:28:53.989
<v Speaker 2>This is Me Now. So in The Greatest s Story

0:28:54.069 --> 0:28:56.709
<v Speaker 2>Never Told, we learn that she did ask a lot

0:28:56.709 --> 0:28:59.509
<v Speaker 2>of celebrities and she got really upset when they said no,

0:29:00.029 --> 0:29:01.509
<v Speaker 2>and then they were like, oh, so and so says

0:29:01.509 --> 0:29:03.989
<v Speaker 2>that they're at a wedding, and she's like call them,

0:29:04.029 --> 0:29:06.309
<v Speaker 2>like she's just forcing them to be in her movie.

0:29:06.349 --> 0:29:09.189
<v Speaker 2>And then she's like, it's because they don't like the script,

0:29:09.229 --> 0:29:12.549
<v Speaker 2>and then she gets very well. In one scene, the

0:29:12.589 --> 0:29:15.429
<v Speaker 2>casting director says to her, we sent out all the

0:29:15.469 --> 0:29:17.829
<v Speaker 2>offers last night to everybody. We're waiting to hear back

0:29:17.909 --> 0:29:21.389
<v Speaker 2>from a few people. And then a voice off camera says,

0:29:21.509 --> 0:29:24.789
<v Speaker 2>Taylor Swift is a no. Jason Momoa is not available,

0:29:24.869 --> 0:29:29.069
<v Speaker 2>Jennifer Coolidge not available, Lizo not available. Then someone asks

0:29:29.149 --> 0:29:32.469
<v Speaker 2>Jlo if she wants Vanessa Hudgens by the way, and

0:29:32.509 --> 0:29:40.709
<v Speaker 2>she responds for what, same fabe for another person says

0:29:40.829 --> 0:29:44.989
<v Speaker 2>she's not available. At another point, Jennifer says it'd be

0:29:45.029 --> 0:29:46.909
<v Speaker 2>good to get Bad Bunny to do a little cameo

0:29:46.989 --> 0:29:49.909
<v Speaker 2>as the bad kid, and she's then told Ariana Grande

0:29:49.949 --> 0:29:54.269
<v Speaker 2>is unavailable. She's in London until September, and when they're

0:29:54.309 --> 0:29:57.469
<v Speaker 2>talking about her famous friends being busy, she says, I

0:29:57.509 --> 0:29:59.869
<v Speaker 2>don't want to force anybody to do this. Who doesn't

0:29:59.909 --> 0:30:02.189
<v Speaker 2>go this is going to be fun. Nobody wants to

0:30:02.189 --> 0:30:04.949
<v Speaker 2>say no to me. I get that. But when an

0:30:04.949 --> 0:30:07.189
<v Speaker 2>actor doesn't like a script, or doesn't think it's good enough,

0:30:07.269 --> 0:30:10.269
<v Speaker 2>or is worried about it, that's what they'll say. I

0:30:10.309 --> 0:30:13.189
<v Speaker 2>know that I've done it, so don't push them, don't

0:30:13.189 --> 0:30:15.989
<v Speaker 2>put it a mate. When they say no to your script,

0:30:16.389 --> 0:30:21.349
<v Speaker 2>don't want to be in your film. Well, the other

0:30:21.349 --> 0:30:24.709
<v Speaker 2>thing she says, because apparently Chloe Kardashian was supposed to

0:30:24.709 --> 0:30:26.829
<v Speaker 2>make a cameo and it didn't happen, And she says

0:30:27.629 --> 0:30:30.549
<v Speaker 2>people are scared to put themselves out there. I get it,

0:30:30.549 --> 0:30:33.149
<v Speaker 2>took me a long time. I'm scared, and I don't

0:30:33.149 --> 0:30:36.749
<v Speaker 2>think that's it. Then I'm talking about Taylor Swift. She's

0:30:36.749 --> 0:30:39.429
<v Speaker 2>put herself out there plenty. Taylor Swift scared of the

0:30:39.469 --> 0:30:44.589
<v Speaker 2>power of the platform. Jaylo would offer her. Honestly, it

0:30:44.589 --> 0:30:46.789
<v Speaker 2>gives me a lot of respect, like knowing that somebody

0:30:46.789 --> 0:30:50.429
<v Speaker 2>like Lizzo got a call and then said, ah, let

0:30:50.429 --> 0:30:53.629
<v Speaker 2>me know what I respect is that a call was

0:30:53.669 --> 0:30:56.469
<v Speaker 2>made to listen. Yeah. Yeah, that's what I respect because

0:30:56.509 --> 0:31:00.069
<v Speaker 2>just for some context, she writes this album this is

0:31:00.109 --> 0:31:02.749
<v Speaker 2>Me Now, and it was about because this is Me

0:31:02.789 --> 0:31:04.229
<v Speaker 2>Then was written when she was first with men, and

0:31:04.269 --> 0:31:06.349
<v Speaker 2>she only writes albums when she's with Ben. She didn't

0:31:06.349 --> 0:31:08.309
<v Speaker 2>write an album in like twenty years. Anyway, she writes

0:31:08.309 --> 0:31:10.629
<v Speaker 2>this is Me Now. She's like, Okay, yep, I want

0:31:10.629 --> 0:31:12.309
<v Speaker 2>to tell this story. I'm going to make it like

0:31:12.349 --> 0:31:16.069
<v Speaker 2>this movie visual album. And some distributor is like, yeah, yeah, cool,

0:31:16.069 --> 0:31:18.149
<v Speaker 2>we'll give you some money. And then they pull it

0:31:18.229 --> 0:31:21.429
<v Speaker 2>and they're like actually I think they saw the script,

0:31:21.509 --> 0:31:23.989
<v Speaker 2>but they were like, this doesn't make us any money,

0:31:24.189 --> 0:31:26.669
<v Speaker 2>like Beyonce sing didn't make us money. This isn't a

0:31:26.709 --> 0:31:30.389
<v Speaker 2>good business. Move fast. And then she realizes that she's

0:31:30.389 --> 0:31:34.189
<v Speaker 2>got to fund it. But that's not the answer. I

0:31:34.189 --> 0:31:36.869
<v Speaker 2>would just pull. I would just pull. Sometimes we're told

0:31:36.909 --> 0:31:40.309
<v Speaker 2>no because the answer is no. So it's a three

0:31:40.509 --> 0:31:45.869
<v Speaker 2>part multimedia project. What is that twenty million dollars of

0:31:45.869 --> 0:31:50.029
<v Speaker 2>her own money, and the description says it examines and

0:31:50.069 --> 0:31:53.989
<v Speaker 2>plays with her life as a serial romantic. And she

0:31:54.069 --> 0:31:56.189
<v Speaker 2>says it's a twenty year project. But we can't say

0:31:56.229 --> 0:31:57.949
<v Speaker 2>it's twenty year project just because we don't do anything

0:31:57.989 --> 0:32:02.669
<v Speaker 2>else for twenty years. Yeah, well we relatable. Neil de

0:32:02.749 --> 0:32:07.749
<v Speaker 2>grass Tyson is a literal astrophysicist. He writes books about

0:32:07.749 --> 0:32:11.069
<v Speaker 2>traveling to space. He has a species of named after him.

0:32:11.109 --> 0:32:13.749
<v Speaker 2>Why is he in Jalo's movie? Could have done so

0:32:13.949 --> 0:32:17.989
<v Speaker 2>much science. We are so diacal, council, but the stars

0:32:18.149 --> 0:32:20.549
<v Speaker 2>hold all the power. When she did the greatest love

0:32:20.629 --> 0:32:23.309
<v Speaker 2>story never told? Except all she does is tell her

0:32:23.669 --> 0:32:28.109
<v Speaker 2>she wanted to tell the story in all mediums immediately

0:32:28.189 --> 0:32:31.269
<v Speaker 2>available to her. Yes. Right. At one point she brings

0:32:31.829 --> 0:32:34.149
<v Speaker 2>this book in that Ben gifted her, which has all

0:32:34.189 --> 0:32:37.429
<v Speaker 2>their emails from two thousand and two, and they interview

0:32:37.509 --> 0:32:40.629
<v Speaker 2>someone who's like, we were allowed to touch the letters.

0:32:40.669 --> 0:32:44.629
<v Speaker 2>I don't believe it, And it's like, is Jlo making

0:32:44.669 --> 0:32:47.189
<v Speaker 2>this film too? And did she make you say that?

0:32:47.989 --> 0:32:52.869
<v Speaker 2>And these people think they are touching a diary of

0:32:53.029 --> 0:32:57.229
<v Speaker 2>great hist roles signific Winston Churchhill and not a printed

0:32:57.269 --> 0:33:03.189
<v Speaker 2>out email from Ben, You've been showing all the musicians

0:33:03.269 --> 0:33:06.149
<v Speaker 2>all these letters that are and they were like, yeah,

0:33:06.349 --> 0:33:10.469
<v Speaker 2>we call you Penaflak. And she exclaims, I don't expect

0:33:10.469 --> 0:33:14.589
<v Speaker 2>anyone to get this, like why are you making it?

0:33:14.629 --> 0:33:17.109
<v Speaker 2>Because she wants people to believe in love. She says,

0:33:17.269 --> 0:33:20.869
<v Speaker 2>don't you see my favorite scene? She has to leave

0:33:20.909 --> 0:33:24.669
<v Speaker 2>the set and everyone's chasing her, asking questions because she's

0:33:24.709 --> 0:33:26.669
<v Speaker 2>the boss, and she's just like, it's very Jenny from

0:33:26.709 --> 0:33:28.709
<v Speaker 2>the block, like oh, I'm so overwhelmed. And she's getting

0:33:28.709 --> 0:33:31.149
<v Speaker 2>in a car that's like actually a track it's and

0:33:31.149 --> 0:33:33.829
<v Speaker 2>it's very like, oh my gosh, this project is huge,

0:33:33.829 --> 0:33:36.989
<v Speaker 2>and it's like, you solely are responsible to this. You

0:33:37.029 --> 0:33:39.269
<v Speaker 2>can pull the plug at any point, an you can go.

0:33:39.389 --> 0:33:41.309
<v Speaker 2>This is too much. She's like I have to go,

0:33:41.389 --> 0:33:45.029
<v Speaker 2>and I'm like, where Jen? This is your project, your

0:33:45.069 --> 0:33:49.229
<v Speaker 2>only project, except for the documentary you're making about this project.

0:33:49.389 --> 0:33:53.309
<v Speaker 2>But someone is filming that documentary now because I'm watching

0:33:53.509 --> 0:33:56.869
<v Speaker 2>the greatest love story Never told. Okay, then there's another

0:33:56.949 --> 0:34:00.709
<v Speaker 2>documentary I found called Ben and Jen Never Say Never Ah,

0:34:00.829 --> 0:34:04.709
<v Speaker 2>which is confusing because Justin Bieber's documentary is called Never

0:34:04.749 --> 0:34:08.829
<v Speaker 2>Say Never. The timeline reads like a soap opera, two

0:34:08.869 --> 0:34:12.949
<v Speaker 2>decades filled with hot romance, heartbreak, multiple marriages, broken engagements,

0:34:12.989 --> 0:34:15.589
<v Speaker 2>and five children between them. The love story of pop

0:34:15.749 --> 0:34:18.429
<v Speaker 2>icon Jennifer Lopez and movie star Ben Affleck began with

0:34:18.509 --> 0:34:20.869
<v Speaker 2>a movie set meeting in two thousand and two, which

0:34:20.949 --> 0:34:23.869
<v Speaker 2>waived its way to the altar twenty years later, share

0:34:23.909 --> 0:34:27.189
<v Speaker 2>the Secrets of Pink Diamonds, of Racy Yacht Video and

0:34:27.229 --> 0:34:31.189
<v Speaker 2>Bubble Bath Proposal. So this is the third Like, these

0:34:31.189 --> 0:34:35.309
<v Speaker 2>two people have been together for like a combined eleven

0:34:35.349 --> 0:34:40.909
<v Speaker 2>months over two engagements, and I have to watch three

0:34:41.149 --> 0:34:45.869
<v Speaker 2>movies about the mon Amazon pri one album and one album,

0:34:45.989 --> 0:34:49.149
<v Speaker 2>two albums. It's hard because with the greatest love story,

0:34:49.149 --> 0:34:51.549
<v Speaker 2>I never told there aren't any steakes because it's just

0:34:51.629 --> 0:34:53.549
<v Speaker 2>Jen's money and she's making a documentary and I'm like,

0:34:53.589 --> 0:34:56.229
<v Speaker 2>whether you lose it all or you don't, you're still

0:34:56.269 --> 0:34:59.069
<v Speaker 2>Jennifer Lopez and you're with Ben Affleck. So I'm not

0:34:59.069 --> 0:35:01.509
<v Speaker 2>not rooting for you. I just don't think you've got

0:35:01.589 --> 0:35:04.429
<v Speaker 2>much to lose, Yeah, she says. At one point in

0:35:04.509 --> 0:35:07.709
<v Speaker 2>the documentary about the movie, she says, I have good intentions.

0:35:07.789 --> 0:35:09.629
<v Speaker 2>I just don't want it to suck and that's all

0:35:09.629 --> 0:35:14.789
<v Speaker 2>of us with pursuit so well, but it does. And

0:35:14.829 --> 0:35:17.549
<v Speaker 2>then Ben says, that's just inexperience. You haven't done this

0:35:17.589 --> 0:35:21.229
<v Speaker 2>before because he has made films and he's like his

0:35:21.349 --> 0:35:25.469
<v Speaker 2>disinesce and oh nah, he was like, no, it's great, babe,

0:35:25.549 --> 0:35:29.309
<v Speaker 2>it's really good. Divorce rumors. A few months after The

0:35:29.309 --> 0:35:31.629
<v Speaker 2>Greatest Love Story Never Told and This Is Me Now

0:35:31.949 --> 0:35:35.269
<v Speaker 2>was released, rumors emerged that Ben and Jen were separating,

0:35:35.629 --> 0:35:38.909
<v Speaker 2>which sucks in terms of timing. I'm going to give

0:35:38.909 --> 0:35:40.949
<v Speaker 2>you a bit of a timeline about what has happened

0:35:41.949 --> 0:35:44.909
<v Speaker 2>in the last honestly, like four or five months. It's

0:35:44.949 --> 0:35:48.909
<v Speaker 2>May sixth, twenty twenty four. Jalo is at the met Gala.

0:35:49.749 --> 0:35:52.829
<v Speaker 2>No Ben insight to that. I say Ben had hate

0:35:52.869 --> 0:35:55.549
<v Speaker 2>the Metgala? Is it that unusual that he is not there?

0:35:56.349 --> 0:35:59.669
<v Speaker 2>May twelve, her and Ben do not spend Mother's Day together.

0:36:00.429 --> 0:36:05.869
<v Speaker 2>May fourteen, j Loo is house hunting without Ben. May fifteen,

0:36:06.069 --> 0:36:09.349
<v Speaker 2>there are reports that Ben has moved out. May sixteen,

0:36:09.749 --> 0:36:13.189
<v Speaker 2>Ben pictured leaving his new residence where he's living alone.

0:36:13.629 --> 0:36:17.509
<v Speaker 2>But he's wearing his wedding ring. Okay. J Lo then

0:36:17.749 --> 0:36:21.269
<v Speaker 2>likes a post on Instagram Claire, I would like you

0:36:21.909 --> 0:36:27.069
<v Speaker 2>to just give listeners a gist of the post that

0:36:27.189 --> 0:36:31.869
<v Speaker 2>Jennifer Lopez liked on May the sixteenth, from her account. Ah,

0:36:32.509 --> 0:36:36.549
<v Speaker 2>you cannot build a healthy relationship with someone who lacks

0:36:36.549 --> 0:36:40.469
<v Speaker 2>integrity and emotional safety, doesn't respect your time, doesn't think

0:36:40.509 --> 0:36:43.669
<v Speaker 2>it's important to call, slash text back in a respectable time.

0:36:43.829 --> 0:36:47.789
<v Speaker 2>Friend texting her lacks effective communication skills. He's talking to

0:36:47.869 --> 0:36:52.909
<v Speaker 2>his friends, doesn't strippers who they are or what they want.

0:36:53.709 --> 0:36:57.229
<v Speaker 2>Devil's advocate. Maybe she's talk about one of our other husbands. No,

0:36:57.789 --> 0:37:01.869
<v Speaker 2>she could be talking no current husband. Well, it's funny

0:37:01.949 --> 0:37:04.629
<v Speaker 2>you say that, though, because I think A few days later,

0:37:05.269 --> 0:37:08.189
<v Speaker 2>they're photographed together at a school play of one of

0:37:08.229 --> 0:37:12.349
<v Speaker 2>the children wearing their wedding rings. We go. Things get weirder.

0:37:12.709 --> 0:37:15.149
<v Speaker 2>Two days after that, they're spotted in a car together

0:37:15.869 --> 0:37:19.149
<v Speaker 2>and then Ben's phone starts ringing and his screen is

0:37:19.229 --> 0:37:21.869
<v Speaker 2>visible to the paps. Have you heard this? I've seen

0:37:21.909 --> 0:37:26.989
<v Speaker 2>the picture and it reads Jennifer affleck. But she's right

0:37:27.069 --> 0:37:32.389
<v Speaker 2>there to Gleitch in the matrix. I don't understand. Oh,

0:37:32.549 --> 0:37:35.109
<v Speaker 2>that is weird. That is weird.

0:37:35.189 --> 0:37:35.269
<v Speaker 3>No.

0:37:35.469 --> 0:37:37.309
<v Speaker 2>I saw memes about it, but I didn't see the

0:37:37.349 --> 0:37:41.589
<v Speaker 2>original it's Jennifer. Jenny's right there. The rumors ramp up,

0:37:41.629 --> 0:37:44.909
<v Speaker 2>with sources telling people Ben hates all attention and it

0:37:44.989 --> 0:37:48.469
<v Speaker 2>makes him very uncomfortable. Jennifer has always had a different approach.

0:37:49.109 --> 0:37:51.909
<v Speaker 2>I don't appreciate the blaming Jennifer. No, not one beer.

0:37:51.949 --> 0:37:55.709
<v Speaker 2>He knew who she was. She has never changed. This

0:37:55.949 --> 0:38:00.069
<v Speaker 2>is me, then, this is me now, this have always

0:38:00.069 --> 0:38:05.349
<v Speaker 2>been later, she's clear a journalist. Then asks Jen outright,

0:38:05.709 --> 0:38:08.589
<v Speaker 2>if they're separated, love that journalist me too. Take him

0:38:08.589 --> 0:38:11.669
<v Speaker 2>on for the team doing Godswick says, you know better

0:38:11.709 --> 0:38:17.189
<v Speaker 2>than that. Then they're holding hands. She's hot broke. Then

0:38:17.349 --> 0:38:19.989
<v Speaker 2>Lopez announced that she would not be doing her summer

0:38:20.069 --> 0:38:24.629
<v Speaker 2>tour as planned. Pictures of visits me now toa she's

0:38:24.709 --> 0:38:27.869
<v Speaker 2>not doing it just that's like a huge part of

0:38:27.909 --> 0:38:32.709
<v Speaker 2>promoting her three part twenty millions of pundage project. Well,

0:38:32.749 --> 0:38:34.429
<v Speaker 2>she's not doing it because she has to spend time

0:38:34.469 --> 0:38:38.429
<v Speaker 2>with her family on and she's sorry by the time

0:38:38.509 --> 0:38:40.069
<v Speaker 2>she tours that it's not even going to be her

0:38:40.149 --> 0:38:43.909
<v Speaker 2>now anymore. It's going to be her band again. Then

0:38:43.949 --> 0:38:46.349
<v Speaker 2>they put their sixty million dollar house on the market.

0:38:46.949 --> 0:38:50.469
<v Speaker 2>In June, Ben is on Kevin Hart's podcast and basically

0:38:50.509 --> 0:38:51.829
<v Speaker 2>says he hates all the attention.

0:38:52.149 --> 0:38:53.589
<v Speaker 1>I'm also a little bit shy.

0:38:53.709 --> 0:38:56.349
<v Speaker 2>I also like a lot of attention. Is why people

0:38:56.389 --> 0:38:57.829
<v Speaker 2>see me and they're like, let's do it? Always mad

0:38:58.629 --> 0:39:00.709
<v Speaker 2>because somebody has their cameras thinking in my face and

0:39:00.749 --> 0:39:04.669
<v Speaker 2>you have reste you know, I have resting hard fist,

0:39:05.309 --> 0:39:07.909
<v Speaker 2>He says. Paparazzi can take pictures of him, he doesn't

0:39:07.909 --> 0:39:10.389
<v Speaker 2>give a fuck if they're taking pictures of Jen, not

0:39:10.509 --> 0:39:13.549
<v Speaker 2>his kids. Then he takes his wedding ring off and

0:39:13.549 --> 0:39:17.669
<v Speaker 2>then the next day is back. On July twenty, Lopez

0:39:17.709 --> 0:39:21.909
<v Speaker 2>has a Bridgitton themed birthday party. I having brackets fun

0:39:22.589 --> 0:39:26.389
<v Speaker 2>and Ben doesn't come. That would slap. The only thing

0:39:26.429 --> 0:39:28.869
<v Speaker 2>I will say about the Bridgeton themed birthday party was

0:39:28.909 --> 0:39:33.549
<v Speaker 2>it girls only? Ah? It feels like a gal's event. Well,

0:39:33.829 --> 0:39:36.069
<v Speaker 2>Ben wasn't there. I don't think you'd like dressing up.

0:39:36.109 --> 0:39:39.709
<v Speaker 2>But July twenty seven, Ben Affleck goes rogue and purchases

0:39:39.709 --> 0:39:42.389
<v Speaker 2>a five bedroom home in LA for cheeky twenty mil.

0:39:42.989 --> 0:39:44.669
<v Speaker 2>My question is, why do you need a home if

0:39:44.709 --> 0:39:48.709
<v Speaker 2>you already have a home with j Lo Claire. Any

0:39:48.789 --> 0:39:51.949
<v Speaker 2>minute now, we will have an announcement that Ben and

0:39:52.029 --> 0:39:57.829
<v Speaker 2>Jen are over gupych Finn Benito Non. It's too sad

0:39:57.909 --> 0:40:01.229
<v Speaker 2>because it's the greatest love story that has been told

0:40:01.309 --> 0:40:04.229
<v Speaker 2>over and over and over again. And the issue, you know,

0:40:04.269 --> 0:40:06.269
<v Speaker 2>how like when you break up, like there are so

0:40:06.389 --> 0:40:10.629
<v Speaker 2>many photos and momentos and stuff. It's like she created them.

0:40:10.869 --> 0:40:12.829
<v Speaker 2>It's like you'd go and watch that film, clear that

0:40:12.829 --> 0:40:16.589
<v Speaker 2>Ben made you. She created twenty million dollars worth relationship

0:40:16.709 --> 0:40:22.909
<v Speaker 2>content momentums, twenty million dollars was only this is me now.

0:40:23.589 --> 0:40:25.709
<v Speaker 2>It wasn't the greatest love story I never told, and

0:40:25.829 --> 0:40:27.669
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if I had anything to do with

0:40:27.709 --> 0:40:30.469
<v Speaker 2>Ben and Jen. Never say never, Oh Claire, it is

0:40:30.549 --> 0:40:37.389
<v Speaker 2>time for charges and sentences. I'm gonna go first. My

0:40:37.629 --> 0:40:46.629
<v Speaker 2>charge charges are dop points because there are multiple intensity

0:40:46.749 --> 0:40:53.549
<v Speaker 2>counting eggs before they have hatched, tempting fate, making two

0:40:53.669 --> 0:40:58.029
<v Speaker 2>movies about your new husband, and making Jane fonderby in it. Okay,

0:40:58.269 --> 0:41:01.469
<v Speaker 2>what I will say about your framing of this and

0:41:01.509 --> 0:41:05.629
<v Speaker 2>potentially our framing of the waste. It's been very gen focused,

0:41:05.949 --> 0:41:09.869
<v Speaker 2>wasting Neil deGrasse Tyson's time. I think Jenny is so

0:41:10.229 --> 0:41:12.509
<v Speaker 2>titled to make her art. I think he's just so

0:41:12.669 --> 0:41:14.469
<v Speaker 2>entitled to make her art. But I just think that

0:41:14.589 --> 0:41:17.949
<v Speaker 2>Neil over here could be discovering another planet and instead

0:41:18.349 --> 0:41:22.669
<v Speaker 2>he's Gemini or Sagittarius or something. He must know astrology

0:41:22.749 --> 0:41:24.989
<v Speaker 2>is bullshit, he does. I'm pretty sure he says it

0:41:25.109 --> 0:41:29.829
<v Speaker 2>in the documentary about the film making a movie visual

0:41:29.869 --> 0:41:32.709
<v Speaker 2>album about your life while also making a documentary about

0:41:32.709 --> 0:41:35.549
<v Speaker 2>the movie visual album about your life, And is this inception?

0:41:37.269 --> 0:41:41.909
<v Speaker 2>We didn't necessarily want to be emotionally invested in your relationship,

0:41:41.989 --> 0:41:46.309
<v Speaker 2>but then you made multiple I repeat multiple films about it,

0:41:46.469 --> 0:41:49.949
<v Speaker 2>and now we want to know if you guys are okay, yes, yes,

0:41:50.429 --> 0:41:53.109
<v Speaker 2>So what's your sentence? I don't want them to be over,

0:41:54.229 --> 0:41:57.389
<v Speaker 2>but I think they're over me too, And in that way,

0:41:58.069 --> 0:41:59.669
<v Speaker 2>I think the worst thing that could have happened to

0:41:59.709 --> 0:42:03.309
<v Speaker 2>them both has happened. No, I do, so why would

0:42:03.309 --> 0:42:08.629
<v Speaker 2>I punish them? Ah? Well, Bennifer is no longer, oh Darling, Okay, Well,

0:42:08.669 --> 0:42:13.989
<v Speaker 2>my charge is similar to yours. It is content inception,

0:42:15.869 --> 0:42:19.389
<v Speaker 2>content about content about content. Yeah, greatest love story never told?

0:42:19.429 --> 0:42:22.709
<v Speaker 2>I would argue that it's been told. Yeah, my sentence, if

0:42:22.749 --> 0:42:25.269
<v Speaker 2>you're going to make the greatest love story never told

0:42:25.789 --> 0:42:28.669
<v Speaker 2>about your romance and then now it looks like that

0:42:28.789 --> 0:42:32.669
<v Speaker 2>romance has ended. I need to know. I need the

0:42:32.669 --> 0:42:36.669
<v Speaker 2>Greatest love Story Never Told? BTS. Oh my god, you

0:42:36.709 --> 0:42:39.989
<v Speaker 2>need more content and sectional content. You create the world

0:42:40.029 --> 0:42:43.589
<v Speaker 2>of the dream. We bring the subject into that dream

0:42:43.629 --> 0:42:47.789
<v Speaker 2>and they feel it. They're subconscious and Jen. What Jen's

0:42:47.789 --> 0:42:50.509
<v Speaker 2>doing is she's releasing a lot of polished content. We've

0:42:50.549 --> 0:42:54.109
<v Speaker 2>got a lot of like professional video clip. What I

0:42:54.149 --> 0:42:57.869
<v Speaker 2>need is the candid moments where she's like, it's not working.

0:42:58.589 --> 0:43:02.069
<v Speaker 2>I'm worried that the Great sub Story Never Told was contrived,

0:43:02.189 --> 0:43:04.309
<v Speaker 2>that it was a documentary about a film, but that

0:43:04.509 --> 0:43:08.589
<v Speaker 2>was also had a like editorial spin. And what I

0:43:08.629 --> 0:43:12.389
<v Speaker 2>want is like, as you say, like a behind the scenes,

0:43:12.909 --> 0:43:16.509
<v Speaker 2>dirty grimy iPhone camera where we get the can we

0:43:16.549 --> 0:43:20.549
<v Speaker 2>do another take? I'm being more interested. I want the

0:43:20.629 --> 0:43:24.269
<v Speaker 2>guy who made the poshen Becks documentary. I want him

0:43:24.349 --> 0:43:27.589
<v Speaker 2>to do a Jen and Ben Tocco and actually reveal

0:43:27.709 --> 0:43:31.069
<v Speaker 2>some really interesting stuff about their dynamic. Yeah, that's what

0:43:31.149 --> 0:43:33.829
<v Speaker 2>I need. I need more content. Do you think they're done?

0:43:34.029 --> 0:43:36.189
<v Speaker 2>I think that maybe they are done. And it's so

0:43:36.269 --> 0:43:38.749
<v Speaker 2>sad because it was such a long game. It was

0:43:38.789 --> 0:43:41.829
<v Speaker 2>a long game and even on the YouTube video like

0:43:41.949 --> 0:43:45.309
<v Speaker 2>where he made the film clip. Everyone was really supportive

0:43:45.349 --> 0:43:47.629
<v Speaker 2>and encouraged, and they felt like it did mean that

0:43:47.669 --> 0:43:50.509
<v Speaker 2>they too could finally find love. It made everyone think

0:43:50.549 --> 0:43:52.629
<v Speaker 2>that they could get back with their ex and actually

0:43:52.669 --> 0:43:54.789
<v Speaker 2>live out a love story that they thought was dead.

0:43:55.149 --> 0:43:58.469
<v Speaker 2>But the lesson is, don't make too much content about

0:43:58.509 --> 0:44:01.909
<v Speaker 2>your relationship, especially when your husband has told you he

0:44:01.989 --> 0:44:06.069
<v Speaker 2>doesn't like when you make content about your relationship. I

0:44:06.109 --> 0:44:10.909
<v Speaker 2>do think it's done, but Jalo is fifty five. So

0:44:11.029 --> 0:44:15.149
<v Speaker 2>what I'll say is that there's time in another twenty

0:44:15.229 --> 0:44:18.269
<v Speaker 2>years to tell the greatest love story. Never We've got

0:44:18.309 --> 0:44:20.909
<v Speaker 2>another round in us. We've got another round. As the

0:44:20.989 --> 0:44:24.389
<v Speaker 2>film says, never say never, Never say never. I think

0:44:24.429 --> 0:44:27.309
<v Speaker 2>you could do another round. Have twenty years, have some

0:44:27.309 --> 0:44:30.749
<v Speaker 2>more marriages, yeh, have some more experiences. Benefits three point zero,

0:44:30.749 --> 0:44:33.469
<v Speaker 2>and then she can be like his sad man still sad, Yes,

0:44:33.749 --> 0:44:36.429
<v Speaker 2>yeah he is, he is. He's still complicated. Benefits three

0:44:36.469 --> 0:44:39.549
<v Speaker 2>point zero. Claire, before we go, we are now doing

0:44:39.789 --> 0:44:43.029
<v Speaker 2>lazy girls story at the end. Yeah, don't ask. It's

0:44:43.109 --> 0:44:46.149
<v Speaker 2>just a creative decision, Jens, to make creative decisions. What

0:44:46.309 --> 0:44:49.869
<v Speaker 2>can we make creative decisions? Today's lazy girl story, just

0:44:49.949 --> 0:44:51.589
<v Speaker 2>to put it on the record, Jen, it's not a

0:44:51.669 --> 0:44:55.709
<v Speaker 2>lazy girl. Oh absolutely not. Everyone said, don't make this movie.

0:44:55.789 --> 0:44:57.389
<v Speaker 2>Don't make this movie. You don't have to make this movie.

0:44:57.909 --> 0:45:00.869
<v Speaker 2>Lazy girls would have taken that said, oh thank god,

0:45:01.589 --> 0:45:04.669
<v Speaker 2>I'll lay in bed with my twenty meal. Okay, lazy

0:45:04.669 --> 0:45:08.109
<v Speaker 2>girl story in school. I actually made it to Zone

0:45:08.149 --> 0:45:12.069
<v Speaker 2>Athletics for one hundred meter sprint. I'm really impressed with that.

0:45:12.509 --> 0:45:17.829
<v Speaker 2>God I'm slow because that takes power strength. Sprinting's hard. Sprinting.

0:45:18.149 --> 0:45:21.829
<v Speaker 2>You don't fluke it. You should be a common data.

0:45:22.429 --> 0:45:24.509
<v Speaker 2>It was half a day to travel to and from

0:45:24.549 --> 0:45:27.869
<v Speaker 2>the stadium that held it at I got to the raceline,

0:45:29.189 --> 0:45:32.269
<v Speaker 2>looked around and figured I was way out of place.

0:45:32.749 --> 0:45:33.829
<v Speaker 2>So I made my way back.

0:45:34.109 --> 0:45:34.229
<v Speaker 4>Enough.

0:45:34.349 --> 0:45:39.429
<v Speaker 2>Save that energy for another day. She's a lazy girl. Now.

0:45:39.429 --> 0:45:41.629
<v Speaker 2>This is something really lovely about lazy girls, is that

0:45:41.669 --> 0:45:44.269
<v Speaker 2>we know when our energy is not going to be

0:45:44.309 --> 0:45:46.549
<v Speaker 2>well spent. So she went, Am I gonna win? No?

0:45:46.749 --> 0:45:48.789
