I swear, I thought the thread was "Ben and Jerry are ka-put" and THAT really WAS a tragedy!!!

I herd Ben's mom was the cause to the death of their engagement.

I would not be surprised.........

i don't buy the breakup.

i think it's their version of throwing off the press while they secretly get married

Well seeing as he is older than I am, no his mother was not the reason for their break up... i am... i will claim full responsibility.

iI've said it before, and I'll say it again....celebs shouldn't dish out information about their personal lives if they don't want the entire world talking about what screw ups they are...could you image JLo reading GC right now thinking to herself...OMG! I'm such a gold drigger and I marry too much"

Mom knows best.

doesn't look like it's over just yet....
 

Ben 'n' Jen back together?

Couple sighted at small-town Georgia courthouse

(CNN) -- Are Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez really splitsville -- or are they playing the news media like a Stradivarius?

According to reports in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution and The Associated Press, the celebrity couple -- known as "Bennifer" (or, to some wags, "Affpez") -- was spotted Monday at the Liberty County Courthouse in the southeast Georgia town of Hinesville, about 30 miles from the coastal city of Savannah.

The sighting was just days after word arose that the duo's Southern California wedding, allegedly scheduled for the weekend of September 12, had been canceled and that the two had gone their separate ways.

Whether Lopez and Affleck were applying for a marriage or a gun license or simply completing some other paperwork was unknown despite rumors about the first two possibilities.

"There was some business conducted, but I am not at liberty to say what it was," Gretta Logan, senior deputy clerk of the Liberty County Probate Court, told the Journal-Constitution with an inadvertent pun. "What they were doing was their business."

The Liberty County sheriff said Affleck stopped by to ask about a gun permit, according to the AP, but court officials denied that report to the Journal-Constitution.

What was verified was that Affleck and Lopez did come to the courthouse (allegedly with Affleck's brother Casey), attracting paparazzi and cheerfully signing autographs.

Brooke Moran, a deputy registrar at the courthouse, told the Journal-Constitution that the pair "looked totally together, smiling and happy."

A Savannah radio station reported that the couple also had been sighted at a local shopping mall over the weekend. The couple recently purchased a multimillion-dollar estate on Georgia's Hampton Island.

So, is the love match back on? Only the couple -- and maybe their friends and relatives -- know. But if it is, and if it was never off, score one for the celebs for both maintaining a media frenzy and holding their relationship together.

Whoa maybe I should start the "KUThetaChi Friends Psychic Network"? :D :p

I don't think it's a publicity stunt personally. Why? Well first off all, the whole wedding was a big deal in the news...why would they need even MORE publicity? Furthermore, if they did want to give the press the slip so they could secretly get married, we all know SOMEONE, SOMEWHERE would find out and spill the beans.

I heard that Ben was mad because he only got one letter in their nickname "Bennifer" while JLo got all the rest. (no need to point out that "Ben" is part of "Bennifer" I already saw that and was hoping this would slide by but it probably won't).

I heard that they went to court in GA so Ben could get a gun license. I wonder if they really eloped and wanted to keep it out of the press.

Uh-oh...I'd watch out if I were J. Lo! :p

Maybe he's getting ready to do the whole world a favor:rolleyes: Ok please don't anyone take me seriously/flame me. I personally find her a bit annoying, especially after all the Jenny from the Block bullsh*t. It's pretty obvious that everything they do is for publicity and a scandalous facade. I just ignore it, hoping it'll go away.

yeah, she better make sure her booty is insured.

IT'S BACK ON!

According to Access Hollywood, Jennifer is sporting her big ole pink diamond ring around again.:rolleyes:

I give up! I'm sure glad I'm not a shrink or theropist to the stars...this one would have me ready to commit myself!

Turn it off now before it gets worse!!
 

Okay, if it is back 'on', then why throw away a $ 3.2 million dollar wedding, which included two (2) Vera Wang wedding gowns? If her first wedding was a publicity stunt, then I think it was pretty lame.:rolleyes: (yes, I used the rolleyes).

I've given up on trying to figure out Bennifer. It's too crazy. And even though I don't hate J Lo anymore, if I see her on the cover of Us Weekly one more time, I'm gonna scream. Isn't there other celeb news to report on? :rolleyes:

I think they're trying to take the focus very quickly off of Gigli...they still want their names in the news, but for "happier" news..

blah! http://smilies.crowd9.com/ups/DeNiro/sick.gif

Isn't there anything better than celebs to report on?

Ditto to that! Who cares about them both? With all the crap that goes on in this country and around the world you'd think the news would have something more substantive to report on than their lame behavior.
