Anakin Flair Posted September 14, 2003 Report Posted September 14, 2003 From People (http://people.aol.com/people/news/now/0,10958,485702,00.html) Sources: Splitsville for Ben and J.Lo Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez, who just days ago were planning their weekend wedding, have split up, sources close to the couple tell PEOPLE. The break-up comes in the wake of their decision Wednesday to postpone their Sunday wedding in Montecito, Calif., before as many as 400 guests. The couple blamed the delay on excessive media attention surrounding the event, but reports persisted that Affleck was having second thoughts about the nuptials. A PEOPLE source says it was Affleck who initiated the split. While it was unclear whether the separation was permanent, Lopez was "devastated," according to one friend. The star was in tears, sources said, on Wednesday as she called guests telling them of the wedding's postponement. Lopez, accompanied by friends and a bodyguard, went for a very public jog and swim -- at one point changing into a bathing suit behind a phalanx of towel-bearing guards -- Saturday afternoon along Miami's South Beach, not far from her 11-bedroom house in Miami Beach, where she flew solo on Friday from Los Angeles. Affleck was believed to still be in Los Angeles, though some reports had him heading to Las Vegas for tonight's Shane Mosely-Oscar De La Hoya fight. The split caps a tumultuous summer for the couple, whose romance became public in July 2002 just days after she divorced Cris Judd. They have endured brutal reviews for their performances in the film "Gigli," while tabloid reports have accused Affleck of misbehaving with strippers during a late-night visit to a Vancouver nightclub (reports he vehemently denied). Lopez publicly stuck by her fiancee ("for me, it wasn't an issue," she told W magazine), and plans continued apace for their wedding -- his first, her third. Ken Sunshine, Affleck's spokesman, said he had no knowledge of a split. Lopez' spokesman Dan Klores said he believed the couple was still together, but had not spoken to Lopez in several days. During their time together, the pair -- who met on the set of "Gigli" -- generated worldwide attention, costarring in a sexy music video for her song "Jenny from the Block" and purchasing each other extravagant gifts, including a Rolls-Royce, a Harry Winston bracelet of white and yellow diamonds and 6.1 carat pink diamond solitaire Affleck gave Lopez as an engagement ring. Nevertheless, they thought of themselves as working-class kids -- she from the Bronx, he from Boston -- who shared similar values. As a teetotaler, Lopez was also seen as healthy for Affleck, who is a recovering alcoholic. The couple will be together again -- at least on screen. Their second costarring vehicle, "Jersey Girl," is set for release next year.
Guest Dave O'Neill, Journalist Posted September 14, 2003 Report Posted September 14, 2003 I am shocked and appallled and not at all surprised. She's a bit of a psycho anyway, seeing her voodoo psychics, and making him sign fascist pre-nups. I thank God that Chris Martin has the good sense to punch any paparazzi who come within two feet of him and Gwyneth Paltrow
rising up out of the back seat-nuh Posted September 14, 2003 Report Posted September 14, 2003 At least this means Jersey Girl is gonna get some publicity.
Guest Dave O'Neill, Journalist Posted September 14, 2003 Report Posted September 14, 2003 Not the right Kind, mind you Apparantly Kevin Smith butchered her screen time down to 10 minutes anyway, so it doesnt really matter
iliketurtles Posted September 14, 2003 Report Posted September 14, 2003 I can't help but point and laugh. Now, if J-Lo needs someone to console her... *raises hand*

Guest croweater Posted September 14, 2003 Report Posted September 14, 2003 Ben has the looks and talent of a limbless monkey with crabs. He can not do better than J-Lo
Red Baron Posted September 14, 2003 Report Posted September 14, 2003 At least Ben can go to strip clubs without taking a lie detector test.

Guest TheZsaszHorsemen Posted September 14, 2003 Report Posted September 14, 2003 Good, now JLo can never reap her insane pre-nup. (Like she needed the money.)
Guest Dave O'Neill, Journalist Posted September 14, 2003 Report Posted September 14, 2003 Didnt she also order him to not go on his own Bachelor Party, because Matt Damon was organising flights through that Hooters Air Airline, and she was, like pissed off. I'll say it again, Psycho Bitch

The Ghost of bps21 Posted September 14, 2003 Report Posted September 14, 2003 It was over as soon as Gigli bombed. They love their careers more than they could possibly care for another person.

Jobber of the Week Posted September 14, 2003 Report Posted September 14, 2003 I couldn't even think of these two without immediately wondering "Why does this guy want Puff Daddy's seconds so badly?" At least we don't have to endure Gigli 2.
NoCalMike Posted September 14, 2003 Report Posted September 14, 2003 I wish the media quotes would call it quits on the both of them.

AndrewTS Posted September 15, 2003 Report Posted September 15, 2003 They lasted longer than I expected. Whose next to ride the J-Ho Train?
CanadianChris Posted September 15, 2003 Report Posted September 15, 2003 Eh...she's going back to Puffy sooner or later.
cynicalprofit Posted September 15, 2003 Report Posted September 15, 2003 (edited) OH LORD, THE LEAST INTERESTING OR IMPORTANT THING IVE HEARD ALL YEAR, FUCK, IN MY WHOLE LIFE. Ya know, if they had taken the budget to gigli(sp) and broke it down, they could have made a bunch of good pornos. Hell they could have split the budget in 2 and made 2 AWESOME pornos....Good riddence and may we never hear from either of them again. Edited September 15, 2003 by cynicalprofit
Guest Choken One Posted September 15, 2003 Report Posted September 15, 2003 Now we will have Jen on Barbara saying how she tried to keep the relationship intact but Ben's lust for strip clubs was too much to bear...Ben will do shitty action movies and crawl on his knees for Matty to REMAKE his ass into a star in GWH2...
Guest Urine Sane Posted September 15, 2003 Report Posted September 15, 2003 Could I please bring to the attention of the court, the case of Whoop Dee vs Doo.
Ripper Posted September 15, 2003 Report Posted September 15, 2003 So. There is a page of post cheering on the break up of their relationship(if it is true) and calling Jennifer a psycho ho-bitch. And why? Because the media shoved a camera in their faces. What exactly has either of them done that brings so much anger and obvious jealousy out of everyone. The Jennifer Lopez, Ben Affleck hate is so over the top ridicilous now. "Lets call her J-Ho because she has been in more than one relationship. HA HA. She must be a whore. I mean more than ONE relationship?" What the fuck is this, the twenties? People get together...people break up. You have all done it...(well not all of you but we won't get into why) The only difference is that some camera man isn't following you around shoving a camera up your ass everytime you move. But gawd knows that is all the more reason to call Jennifer a whore and Ben everyname you can think of. The Media and Hollywood has made you all their collective bitches. If they want you to hate someone, all they have to do is overexpose them and you jump on the "I HATE THEM" bandwagon. Pathetic.
