2001 

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez first met on the set of their film Gigli in December 2001. 

The movie, upon its eventual release two years later, won seven Razzies and was branded ‘unwatchable’ by some critics.

It garnered $7.2m in the box office against a reported $55m budget. Yet all was not lost, as the film brought Bennifer closer together.

SEPTEMBER 2002

While they were yet to know about their looming box office failure, Bennifer were in front of the camera once more in 2002 as they reunited to shoot the 2004 movie Jersey Girl.

The movie was where their love was cemented and the couple’s romance was born.

Their name was in fact born on-set, as Jersey Girl director Kevin Smith said: ‘Bennifer’ is trending.

‘It’s a name I first gave the kids during ‘Jersey Girl’ pre-production, before the world found out they were dating…

‘I’d later drop the name in an interview with the @nytimes. Shortly thereafter, it appeared in the article and then entered the vernacular.’ 

2002 ONWARD

NOVEMBER 2002

Ben popped the question to Jennifer with an eye-popping 6.1-carat pink solitaire diamond from Harry Winston during a visit to see his family in Boston – leading to a delighted surprise.

She described the proposal, saying: ‘It’s just a blanket, a quilt of rose petals, all over the whole entire house. So many candles, and vases, bouquets.

‘And my song I’m Glad was playing… I walk in and I was just like overwhelmed. I wasn’t expecting it, and I was just like ‘Oh my God.”

Ben then revealed his mother Christopher Anne Boldt helped him with the proposal, after which Jennifer said: ‘I just started sobbing. Crying. I was like ‘Oh! My God!”

She went on: ‘I had cried a lot over sadness over the years. And for the first time in my life, I cried incredible purging tears of happiness…

‘It was the most cleansing feeling and the most wonderful feeling I had ever had.’

Later that month, Ben appeared in Jennifer’s Jenny From The Block music video including one scene – designed to look like a stealth paparazzi video – showing the actor caressing her famous derriere.

Not content with a video cameo, Jennifer dedicated her sensual and gushing track Dear Ben from her third studio album This Is Me… Then to her husband-to-be. 

SEPTEMBER 2003

Days before their highly-publicized wedding, the couple astounded fans when they announced a postponement due to increasingly feverish media attention.

Their statement read: ‘Due to the excessive media attention surrounding our wedding, we have decided to postpone the date…

‘When we found ourselves seriously contemplating hiring three separate ‘decoy brides’ at three different locations, we realized that something was awry…

Ben made it clear that they very much remained friends, when he told The Hollywood Reporter: ‘We don’t have the kind of relationship where she relies on me for advice but we do have the kind of relationship where there’ll be an e-mail saying, ‘Oh, your movie looks great’…

‘I remember when she got American Idol. I said, ‘This was really smart. Good luck.”

‘I respect her. I like her. She’s put up with some stuff that was unfair in her life, and I’m really pleased to see her successful.’

2014

Two years later, Jennifer told Huffington Post: ‘I would do it all over again, I think. I really would. Even the relationship part.

She said: ‘I think different time different thing, who knows what could’ve happened, but there was a genuine love there, We didn’t try to have a public relationship…

She confirmed the news in a newsletter shared to her official website on Friday, April 8, which included a touching video that showed her getting emotional as she gawked at her engagement ring.

Earlier in the day, just hours before the news broke, Ben and Jennifer was captured touring real estate spaces in Santa Monica. The On The Floor singer was NOT wearing her engagement ring at the time. 

JULY 16, 2022

Jennifer and Ben tied the knot in Las Vegas on July 16, 2022 which was three months after becoming engaged again and 20 years after the actor first got down on one knee. 

The Selena actress, 52, confirmed they said ‘I do’ on her newsletter On The JLo, where she shared details of their intimate wedding held at the Little White Wedding Chapel.

The newsletter was signed ‘Mrs. Jennifer Lynn Affleck’ and included candid selfies of the newlyweds and video of the couple preparing for their special day, including one of Ben getting ready inside the chapel’s bathroom and photos of J.Lo in her wedding dress. 

‘We did it. Love is beautiful. Love is kind. And it turns out love is patient. Twenty years patient,’ she wrote in her post. 

‘Exactly what we wanted. Last night we flew to Vegas, stood in line for a license with four other couples, all making the same journey to the wedding capital of the world. Behind us two men held hands and held each other. In front of us, a young couple who made the three hour drive from Victorville on their daughter’s second birthday—all of us wanting the same thing— for the world to recognize us as partners and to declare our love to the world through the ancient and nearly universal symbol of marriage.

‘We barely made it to the little white wedding chapel by midnight. They graciously stayed open late a few minutes, let us take pictures in a pink Cadillac convertible, evidently once used by the king himself (but if we wanted Elvis himself to show, that cost extra and he was in bed).

‘So with the best witnesses you could ever imagine, a dress from an old movie and a jacket from Ben’s closet, we read our own vows in the little chapel and gave one another the rings we’ll wear for the rest of our lives. They even had Bluetooth for a (short) march down the aisle. But in the end it was the best possible wedding we could have imagined. One we dreamed of long ago and one made real (in the eyes of the state, Las Vegas, a pink convertible and one another) at very, very long last.

‘When love is real, the only thing that matters in marriage is one another and the promise we make to love, care, understand, be patient, loving and good to one another. We had that. And so much more. Best night of our lives. Thank you to the Little White Wedding chapel for letting me use the break room to change while Ben changed in the men’s room.

‘They were right when they said, ‘all you need is love’. We are so grateful to have that in abundance, a new wonderful family of five amazing children and a life that we have never had more reason to look forward to. Stick around long enough and maybe you’ll find the best moment of your life in a drive through in Las Vegas at twelve thirty in the morning in the tunnel of love drive through, with your kids and the one you’ll spend forever with. Love is a great thing, maybe the best of things-and worth waiting for.’

The content included a video of Ben preparing for their nuptials inside the chapel’s pink bathroom.

‘And this was my wedding changing area!’ Ben, wearing a white suit, declared as he held the camera up to a scratched-up mirror.

Jennifer, however, had more luxurious accommodations. She wore a chic yet simple chic dress with her hair styled in waves as she got glammed up inside an elegant bathroom.

‘I feel amazing, excited,’ Jennifer said before doing several twirls in her dress.

The bride appeared to be wearing two different white dresses in her post – the sleeveless frock and a more traditional lace garment which flashed some cleavage. She tucked a veil into her cascading waves. 

The couple collectively known as ‘Bennifer’ obtained a marriage license in Clark County, Nevada on Saturday and exchanged vows in a ‘super small’ ceremony. 

Jennifer will also be taking Affleck’s last name. The Clark County Recorder’s Office shows the pop star will be changing her name to ‘Jennifer Affleck.’ The marriage certificate, however, has yet to be filed. 

Marriage officiants have 10 calendar days to submit the certificate to their office for filing, according to the Clark County Clerk’s Office.

‘From navigating vetoes at the Palace, to breaking Prince Andrew’s inner circle, the high-stakes negotiations and the intensity of the rehearsal – to the breathtaking interview itself.

‘SCOOP is the insider’s account of the inner workings of the Palace and the BBC, two bastions of the British establishment, spotlighting the journalists whose tenacity and courage broke through the highest ceilings – and into the inner sanctum and calculations of one man with losing everything.”

Paris added, “We were halfway through filming and he wanted to cancel the whole show.”

A source close to the family said: “After retiring, Tyson saw the Netflix show as a lucrative opportunity rather than the money he would have made by taking a fight.

“But the filming process was particularly stressful and coupled with the fact that he is now an active boxer again after retiring, he decided to shelve a series two for the foreseeable future.

“There is hope within the streaming giant that it can be re-released, but in the short term this is not something Tyson is considering.”

Johnny Depp is accused of swearing and berating his co-star Lola Glaudini on the set of the 2001 film.

Lola, 52, who had the small supporting role of Rada in the film, shared her unpleasant experience working with the actor 20 years after shooting the film.

The actress claimed the Donnie Brasco star, 60, called her a “f*****g idiot” and told her to “shut up” while speaking about the alleged incident in a recently surfaced clip from the Powerful truth angels podcast.

According to Lola, the problems started after director Ted Demme told her to “burst out laughing” after one of Johnny’s lines, but the actor was not happy with the gesture.

However, a representative for Depp denied the claims and told Variety the actor “always prioritizes good working relationships with cast and crew and this story differs greatly from the recollection of other members on set at the time.”

Depp’s career has been plagued by controversy in recent years, following his defamation trial against ex-wife Amber Heard after she claimed she was a victim of domestic abuse during their 15-month marriage.

Lola claimed that after she laughed, Depp went on a tirade, swearing at her while sticking “his finger in my face.”

‘[Depp] says his monologue. I hear the signal, and I go haha, I laugh out loud or whatever. Johnny Depp, when they say cut, walks up to me, comes up to me, sticks his finger in my face and says, ‘Who the fuck do you think you are? Is that you? Shut your mouth.”‘

“I’m here, and I’m trying to say my lines, and you’re drawing all the damn attention. You fucking idiot,” she remembered him saying that to her.

“Oh, well, oh now it’s not so funny? Now can you shut up? Now can you shut the fuck up? The silence you have now, that’s how you fucking stay.”

Lola went on to say, “The first day on set I never met him. This was my first studio film, until then I had only done indie films.’

“And I have the star that I have idolized, that I so desperately want to work with, punched me in the face. The only thing going through my head was, “Don’t cry, don’t cry, don’t cry.”

Lola went on to say that Johnny later gave her a “non-apology,” but she acted like nothing happened.

‘[Johnny] said, “You know, so before I was really in my head and staying in character, I’m doing this Boston accent, and it’s really fucking with me. So I’m kind of uptight and stuff” So I just wanted to making sure we’re cool and all that?’

Lola replied, “I just looked at him and was like, ‘I don’t know what you’re talking about? Of course, what are you talking about? Totally cool.’ Because I thought… my dad said, “Don’t let them see you sweat.” So that was that,” she shared.

She also stated that the director “didn’t come over and say anything” when she was allegedly berated by Depp, and “when we wrapped up, I was like a pariah.” No one wanted to talk to me because I’m the asshole he was railing against.”

Meanwhile, Depp’s rep disputed the story by citing Blow’s sound engineer Samuel Sarkar, who also worked with the actor on films such as Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and Chocolat, and co-produced Depp’s film Minamata.

Sarkar told Variety in a statement, “As a healthy person, you are constantly listening to what is happening on set, listening to sounds, listening to chatter. In fact, I listened to Johnny’s audio specifically to check for interference, both during rehearsals and during recording. I’ve never heard anything like it – and that would have been a remarkable event.’

The biographical crime drama Blow followed Depp, who played American cocaine king George Jung (based on a real-life American drug trafficker of the same name), and his narco network, including Pablo Escobar and Carlos Lehder Rivas, and the Medellín Cartel.

He starred opposite Penelope Cruz, who played his love interest.

His former co-star’s allegations come two years after Depp’s defamation trial with ex-wife Amber Heard, 37, in which details of their tumultuous relationship emerged in court.

Depp won a favorable outcome at trial after his legal team successfully argued that Heard’s op-ed in the Washington Post accusing her ex-husband of domestic violence was defamatory. He was awarded $10 million in compensatory damages.

Heard did not publicly mention Depp in the piece, but given their status and fame, it was clear who she was referring to regarding her history of alleged abuse.

Although Depp won $10 million in damages, the jury also found in Heard’s favor on one of her three counterclaims.

Ultimately, the former couple reached a settlement over the jury awards, and Heard was only forced to pay Depp a total of $1 million, which he would donate to five different charities.

Gillian Anderson has revealed she initially turned down the role of Emily Maitlis in Netflix film Scoop.

The acclaimed actress will play the Newsnight presenter in the anticipated film which dramatizes the infamous 2019 interview between Prince Andrew and Emily.

But Gillian has admitted it took some persuading to take on the role, insisting it was ‘just too scary to play Emily Maitlis because she’s still alive.’

“She’s so formidable because people know her so well,” she explained in a new one BBC interview.

The actress admitted that her fear pushed her to say yes to the project. “I thought I probably should do it because I’m so scared of it,” I commented.

Gillian met ‘amazing’ Emily at a party last year and she admitted: ‘I behaved towards her as if I knew her. Like we’re best friends.’

Whiule Emily knew Gillian played her in the Netflix movie. She did not consult on the film because she serves as executive producer on a rival three-part Amazon series titled A Very Royal Scandal, which will star Luther’s Ruth Wilson as Maitlis and Michael Sheen as Prince Andrew.

Yodha vs Shaitaan vs Bastar: The Naxal Story Box Office Clash

It’s interesting to note that Yodha saw competition at the box office with the Adah Sharma film Bastar: The Naxal Story and defeated it by a significant margin. Basterwhich is based on the Naxalite-Maoist conflict in the Bastar area of ​​Chhattisgarh, also features key performances by Raima Sen, Yashpal Sharma, Shilpa Shukla and Subrat Dutta. Shaitaan, starring Ajay Devgn and R Madhavan, is nonetheless a fierce rival to Sidharth’s film. The action thriller earned Rs 4.1 crore on its first day of release on the back of the huge buzz that preceded its debut. This amount is much smaller than the first-day net receipts of the biggest domestic films of 2024, inclusive Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya (Rs 6.7 crore), Shaitaan (Rs 14.75 crore), and Fighter (Rs 22.5 crore).

The film is an intense action thriller that follows Arun Katyal, the commander of the Yodha Task Force, an elite force, on a thrilling rescue mission. Producers Hiroo Yash Johar, Karan Johar, Apoorva Mehta and Shashank Khaitan are behind the film.

The Buy One Get One ticket offer increased the incentive to see the film and accelerated box office sales. However, at this time there is no desire or requirement for a prior reservation; instead, the film is completely dependent on seat reservations.

NeNe is leaking former beaten Real Housewives of Atlanta Co-star Porsche Williams for allegedly refusing to work with her on the set of Netflix The Upshaws.

In a series of posts shared via Instagram story on Friday, March 15, Leakes, 56, said her management company had approached her with an offer of The Upshaws (starring Mike Eps And Wanda Sykes) and said the series was “interested in casting [her] for a role” in an episode directed by Kim Fields.

“I was excited to do it. It’s a comedy, I love comedy [and] I used to have a comedy show…so comedy is something I like to do and I really enjoyed doing it,” Leakes said. “They told me that Porsha Williams also played Guobadia in this particular series. She would be standing next to me. I was excited, I hadn’t seen Porsha. We always have a good laugh when we see each other, so I thought, ‘Me and Porsha are going to kill this part.’

The former RHOA star reportedly landed in Los Angeles and headed to the Upshaws I was expecting Williams, 42, at the show’s rehearsal, but she didn’t show up. “Porsha never came,” Leakes said. “Production called me and asked me if I was having any problems with housewives because they were recasting the other position.”

Leakes said she told production she had no problems with housewives, but Williams’ role ultimately went to RHOACynthia Bailey instead.

“I was later told that Porsha was a no-show and said she didn’t want to work with me, that we had had past issues and she didn’t want to work with me,” Leakes said, adding that she was “shocked” and “beyond disappointed” by the outcome. She added that she and Williams had “double dated a few times” and taken trips together to places like Miami, Dubai and Las Vegas.

“I’m shocked to hear that Porsha goes to a production company and says she doesn’t want to work with me because we’ve had a lot of problems in the past. What problems have we had in the past?” Leaks asked. “We don’t have any problems that prevent us from working together. We are professionals.”

In 2019, Williams publicly called out Leakes for “fat-shaming” her just days after the birth of her first child. Leakes later served Williams with a cease and desist order after she shared screenshots via Instagram of text messages Leakes had sent her at the time, in which she allegedly called Williams “a lying fat hungry bitch,” among other things.

“We’ve had little things, we’re on a reality show,” Leakes said in 2024 via Instagram Story. “So we’re obviously going to have some problems. But we haven’t had anything where we couldn’t work together. I’m sad and disappointed that Porsha would go to any company and say she’s had problems with me and we can’t work together. That is a lie.”

Leakes also claimed that she texted Williams before posting on her Instagram Story, who reportedly replied that she was “going through a divorce and [Leakes] I haven’t contacted my sister.” Williams filed for divorce from her husband Simon Guobadia in February after 15 months of marriage.

“The bottom line is that Porsha didn’t want to share the spotlight. That is it. And professionals can share the spotlight,” Leakes concluded in her video. “Porsha is not a star. She is a Bravolebrity. Be clear.”

In December 2018, a source shared with We weekly that Williams was frozen by Leakes. “There’s no reason NeNe and Porsha can’t be friends,” the source said at the time. “It’s at the end of NeNe. There is nothing Porsha can do to maintain her friendship with NeNe if this is how things turn out.”
