With Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner’s slowly churning divorce finally etched into concrete for eternity, America’s newest Batman is moving out of the couple’s Los Angeles mansion and into... a “private area within the family’s home”! It seems weird, but once you see photos of Affleck’s new digs, you’ll totally understand his decision.
Below is the text of a blind item from May 4, 2007:
Anne V., I suppose one of many Annes in the third-grade supermodel class, recently had an baby with her husband, a Yahoo! executive. She announced the name of the female babe on an Instagram post of the bottom of the infant’s foot: “Welcome to the world baby Alaska! Your little feet absolutely rocked my world, I’ve never been so in love! @acahan and I couldn’t be more proud. 6/25/2015.”
Matt Damon, former Boston nobody how do you like them apples, has largely shed his Northeastern demeanor for something of a regular guy kind of vibe; it is a look that he wears well. But newsflash, hombre: on Thursday in Beijing, Damon debuted his highly anticipated phase three: Relaxy Dad.
After 10 years of marriage, Ben Affleck and Jen Garner are breaking up. Why? People has the exclusive scoop: It’s because “they are really two different people.” Also, per a source: Ben “was a good husband and loves and cares for his wife and family. He was juggling that as well as his career—everyone knows that juggling a family and career is hard.”
Life is good for Miley Cyrus. Her activism on behalf of trans and homeless youth has helped rehabilitate her image among people who once took her for a joke. She hung out with a pig. She also rounded first and second base with Victoria’s Secret model Stella Maxwell, in a video captured by bystanders and sold to TMZ.
Seven days of Kristin ago, Ms. Kristin Cavallari did a rude thing: She made the Official Kristin Cavallari App for iPhone and Android, which was once free, cost $2.99. Per month. Her followers were outraged, announcing in droves on Instagram that they would be deleting the app and reading Lauren Conrad’s free blog instead.
The question at the center of Asif Kapadia’s new documentary Amy is: Can gossip foster compassion? Throughout the sensitive, 128-minute probe into the life of singer-songwriter Amy Winehouse, we see footage of (and presumably shot by) the paparazzi that plagued her, the performances that defined part of her career, the public inebriation that overshadowed it.
A few days ago, a tipster emailed us a link to a post on a lesbian discussion forum about Orange is the New Black’s Natasha Lyonne. Lyonne has reportedly been dating Fred Armisen for almost a year (they were most recently pictured together at a gala honoring Steve Martin in June, which you see above). But the post detailed how Armisen is conducting a texting relationship with said poster despite being Lyonne’s boyfriend.
Noted attractive person Kim Kardashian is the driving force behind many successful businesses, the star of a hit television show, and the new false god of tens of millions of Instagram followers. This month in Rolling Stone, she is also a “jungle Aphrodite escaped from a forest of big-booty nymphs,” whose “creamy thighs bestride an entire nation.” Her vagina, says Rolling Stone, is one of the few in pop culture “to smell and bleed and pop out babies.” Earthy. Powerful.
Cue the laugh track, because we’ve got a reckless sitcom on our hands: according to reports, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner are still going to live together after their divorce. Page Six explains: “Ben, who has been staying in hotels in recent months, will live on the property of their Brentwood marital home, but will not share the main house.”
For months, Mitch Winehouse has waged a public battle against Asif Kapadia’s documentary Amy, which premiered in May at the Cannes Film Festival and opens Friday in select theaters. In chronicling the ascent to fame and downward trajectory of Amy Winehouse, Kapadia’s film does not paint Mitch in the best light. Through his behavior and other people’s reporting of it, Mitch comes off as an opportunist who enabled his daughter’s self-destruction and who prioritized her fame over her health. The last bit seemed to have been corroborated by Amy herself in the hit single “Rehab”: “I ain’t got the time and if my daddy thinks I’m fine,” she sang in a reference to an intervention staged by her then-manager Nick Shymansky. It ended, according to accounts in the film, when Amy sat on Mitch’s lap, acting like a little girl, and he told her that she didn’t have to go to rehab if she didn’t want to. Shymansky says that if she had gone to rehab, her seminal Back to Black album may have never happened.
The actors Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner announced today, one day after their 10-year wedding anniversary, that they are getting divorced. “After much thought and careful consideration, we have made the difficult decision to divorce,” the couple told People in a joint statement. Our condolences to the Afflecks and congratulations to People for getting that exclusive they so desperately wanted.
Is Kristin Cavallari even more stylish than we thought?
