Ben & Jen no more?!? What hope is there for the rest of us?

[Paragon]

Oh cruel cruel world...

5. Thanks! for the link!

[Waistdeep]

2. But....

There is still Ben & Jerry's. Keep some perspective here!

[Don_G]

6. Exactly What I Was Thinking

Ben & Jerrys is far higher up on my list than Ben & Jen.

[unblock]

3. well, the rest of us don't have the stress of tabloid harassment

to complicate our marriages.

besides, i have it on very good authority that ben cruises for men. he may in fact be bi, but i've always suspected that the whole j.lo. thing was just a cover/pr. move.

7. The Only Hope For The Rest Of Us

is that no one will ever mention it again

[ronzo]

13. Ding!

EOM

14. Ding!

8. And not a moment too soon.

Just what the world needs--a new Elizabeth Taylor.

[Gogi]

9. My reaction?

Glory Hallelujah! I will no longer
have this non-event thrown in my face! When someone is going on
their fifth try at matrimony how is
that wonderful?

[WindRavenX]

10. My reaction II:

Who gives a flying fuck about Ben and J.Lo? HONESTLY PEOPLE!!!
WHO CARES!?!?

Sorry, I like celebrity gossip as much as the next, but goddamn, this OBSESSION with Ben and J.Lo is driving me fing batty!

[Enraged_Ape]

20. I was saying this same thing to my wife last night...

when a "story" came on the "news" that Bennifer was taking the last train to Splitsville. I said I couldn't believe that supposedly intelligent people gave two craps about these two self-absorbed publicity whores, who have cried wolf on this subject more than once.

She said, "SHUT UP! I'M TRYING TO LISTEN TO THIS!"

[classics]

11. OH MY GOD

For a minute I thought that said no more Ben & Jerry... now that would have been a disaster.

[WindRavenX]

12. If that was the case

People would be committing suicide

[juliemoo]

15. If that was the case...

J.Lo would be committing suicide. How else do you think she supports that ass?

[Spider Jerusalem]

16. Who gives a fuck?

The only thing I can say about this is "Hurrah!", especially if it means the public is spared the unspeakable horror of them doing another film together. (Assuming the studios would LET them, after Gigli.) Which means the hideous travesty that their proposed remake of Casablanca would surely have been shall never see the light of day. And this makes me very happy.

[SoCalDem]

17. Well, that will delay the divorce by a bit

Two attractive,"manufactured celebs" palying games with the press..

Could not care less if they get married or not.. Let's see that would be number THREE in TWO years for her

Ben is better off without her ..Why would he be in such a hurry to be number 4

[YellowRubberDuckie]

19. The mere fact they broke up says...

...that there IS hope for the rest of us. You know this was just a relationship to further each other in the press and in the eyes of the public. People who are constantly in the news are people whose movies you go see, except for Gigli, and whose products you try. There's hope for the rest of us because everyone knows hollywood relationships between the IT people don't last because they're based on nothing more than superficial BULL SHIT.

21. We're doomed.

DOOMED, I say!
LAWKI* is over.
