J.Lo and Affleck: We Will Never Work Together Again
Superstar couple Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are so distraught at the critical backlash to their movie Gigli that they have vowed never to work together again. Sources close to the twosome - who met and fell in love on the set of the gangster comedy - say that although in public they have defended the flick, behind closed doors Latina lovely J.Lo is very upset at the bad press. And the sexy pair believe their incredible fame and the gossip surrounding their upcoming marriage doomed the movie to failure before it was released. A source says, "Ben's brushing it off but J.Lo's taking it personally. They've admitted their relationship is more of a hindrance than a boost to a movie." However, fans will get one more chance to see them sizzle on screen together in Kevin Smith's upcoming movie Jersey Girl, which will be released in February.
Worst Film Ever?
Sony Pictures and Revolution are hoping that the popular appeal of Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez -- "Ben & Jen," as they have become known -- will offset a torrent of negative publicity and disastrous test screenings of their movie Gigli, which opens Friday. Today's (Wednesday) Los Angeles Times observed that the two companies "are now nervously awaiting the film's reviews, fearful critics will do battle to be the meanest." Several "unofficial" reviews have already appeared. FoxNews.com's Roger Friedman this week put the film at the top of his list of all-time bad movies. "Witless, coarse, and vulgar, Gigli is worse than its advance buzz could have indicated," he wrote. "The film -- if you can call it that -- is a total, mindless disaster." Today's New York Post quotes Good Morning America critic Joel Siegel as saying tersely following a screening Monday night, "I was shocked."
