By it, I mean news coverage, not their relationship.

Is anyone else just sick of coverage of Ben Affleck and J Lo's impending wedding/postponement and now apparent break-up? OMG......I could almost get sick each time they're on the news. This is news? Hello, how about Iraq? Isabel? To be honest I was bored with their "story" from the get-go.

Just had to vent........thanks.

I agree Miss Mary!! Although if it is true, I am happy they split. Ben can do so much better than her. Do not get me wrong, I like Lopez, but she has been married too many times to her "this is the one" and "true love" in the past.

I don't know what the big story is anyway. It's obvious that they aren't meant to be. He's mine -- he's Ben AFLAC!

who is JLO anyway?

Personally...I could care less if she goes ahead and marries Madonna. I think she is a half-way decent actress, with Enough being her best (and she was fully clothed throughout!).

Lindaloo and Mrs Chad, you both may be in luck:




All Over?
People Magazine Reports That J. Lo and Ben Affleck Have Split Up
The Associated Press


Sept. 15— Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez, the most overexposed couple on the planet, were supposed to exchange wedding vows Sunday, but instead, there was a report that they had ended their tabloid-chronicled storybook romance.
Amid the frantic speculation surrounding the pair last week, People magazine reported Sunday that Affleck has dumped Lopez due to "second thoughts" about their impending wedding.

Dubbed "Bennifer" by gossip wags, the pair planned to wed at a mansion estate near Santa Barbara. But they postponed the ceremony Wednesday, saying excessive media attention was turning the event into havoc.

Citing unidentified "sources close to the couple," People reported that Affleck initiated the breakup with Lopez, who was "devastated" and "in tears." However, the magazine hedged its scoop by adding "it was unclear whether the separation was permanent."

A representative for Affleck, Ken Sunshine, declined to comment on the breakup rumor. Lopez's publicist, Dan Klores, did not return The Associated Press' call for comment. Klores told People he believed the couple was still together, but had not spoken to Lopez in several days.

If the wedding happens, it will be the third for Lopez, 33, and the first for Affleck, 31. They met while filming this summer's infamous bomb, Gigli.

Their second film together, writer-director Kevin Smith's Jersey Girl, is set for release next year.

It's all in one ear and out the other.

That's funny Mrs. Chad. Mrs. Coriolis wants Mel Gibson, but I can't have Kim Basinger.

Been offline all day guys......

First j JLo is Jennifer Lopez from TWC, didn't you know that? LOL I swear my kids can't believe there's another JL out there and a Met on top of that!!!

Duck - too funny. Caught that!!!

Linda - agree, he can do way better than J Lo. I was never impressed with her. Him? He's okay. He's no Brad Pitt or George Clooney but if a few of of you are in line for him, I'll step aside. Now if this was Georgie baby we were talking about, I'd be right up there with the rest of you!

I don't think the Media coverage will ever end. They are two "beautiful people", that are young and rich. Besides that people want to live their lives through other people. Even if it means that they can only leave their real lives for a few minutes.

Somehow I've managed to combine an image of the AFLAC (Afff laaackk!) duck into the relationship of Jen and Ben (Affleck).

I picture in my mind that noisy duck trying to get Ben's attention one more time...and its name is Jen.

Affff leeeccckkk! Come here right now. Affff leeeecckkk!

Although Hollywood romances sometimes interest me, most are annoying. Those people know very little of how life as WE know it really operates.
