Ben Affleck & Jennifer Garner In ‘Fairly Decent Baby Name’ Shock
Keep this to yourself, but we're starting to get a tiny bit worried about Ben Affleck - specifically his arseholeishness. Ben Affleck's arseholeishness has been proven in his film choices, his
J-Lo relationship and his fondness for schoolboy deodorant commercials. But lately there's been less arseholeishness - first he directed a film that wasn't horrible, and now he's given his new daughter a non-horrible name.
Ben Affleck's new daughter is called
Seraphina Rose Elizabeth Affleck. An only slightly weird name followed by two normal alternatives? We pray that
Jennifer Garner chose the name - a reality where Ben Affleck isn't an arsehole is too horrible to consider.
Jennifer Garner Finally Has That Baby Of Hers
It's been a week since Jennifer Garner went to hospital to give birth to Ben Affleck's baby - so what was the hold up? We're pretty sure that it was one of the following two scenarios:
1) Jennifer Garner's baby refused to come out until it was promised a helicopter and a suitcase of money, and an FBI negotiator had to talk it down to a scooter and a shiny penny, or
2) Jennifer Garner's baby realised that
Ben Affleck was its father and decided to stick it out in the womb.
Either way, Jennifer Garner had a baby girl yesterday. So there.
Jennifer Garner Probably Has A Baby Or Something
Jennifer Garner has more reason than most to celebrate 2009 - and not just because it's a year potentially free of Gary Busey's pervy spittle. No, apparently Jennifer Garner is having a baby. Or she's had a baby. Or she's about to have a baby. Nobody really seems to know. Jennifer Garner checked into a hospital on New Year's Eve with
Ben Affleck, and she's darned if she's not coming out without a baby.
So congratulations to Jennifer Garner. And double congratulations if the baby ends up more like you than Ben Affleck. And triple congratulations if he's not the father. Happy new year!
Affleck/Norton Switch Makes State Of Play Slightly Less Desirable
State Of Play - the movie adaptation of a BBC mini-series that recently hit the headlines when Brad Pitt didn't want to be in it any more - has had another member-swap.
Now, thanks to Brad Pitt suddenly leaving State Of Play and Russell Crowe taking his place, production has been slightly delayed - and that delay has meant that Edward Norton has been forced to drop out as well. But, undeterred, the State Of Play team have laboured on and quickly signed up Ben Affleck to fill his shoes. And don't forget that State Of Play still hasn't started filming yet, so by the time it hits cinemas we can expect State Of Play's all-star line-up to include two Baldwin brothers, the girl from The Craft who wasn't Neve Campbell or the pretty one, a Chinese Highland Shrew and your Mum.
