Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s relationship seems to constantly be in the headlines, and the news is not always positive. Just like any other couple, Bennifer has also had its fair share of ups and downs. And now, it looks like there is trouble in paradise yet again.
According to an insider, Ben Affleck is absolutely furious at his wife as he is getting heavily trolled on social media for his looks. Why? Well, if the report is to be believed, Jennifer Lopez pushed him to get fillers and Botox, something which he was totally against. When Ben Affleck appeared in The Roast of Tom Brady, Netizens couldn’t help themselves from taking a dig or two at his appearance.
Ben Affleck Gets Trolled for Allegedly Getting Fillers
On May 05, Netflix live-streamed The Roast of Tom Brady, where a bunch of celebrities came together to troll Tom Brady, all in good fun. The roast included celebrities like Kevin Hart, Tom Segura, Kim Kardashian, and, of course, Ben Affleck.
Instead of roasting Brady, Affleck quickly turned his attention to the trolls and keyboard warriors on the Internet. He stated,
“You sit there, f–king hiding behind your keyboard, spewing out all this f–king toxic s–t about people you’d be afraid to come up to if you saw them at the car wash. You guys out there talking s–t, all right behind your f–king keyboard, that doesn’t make you a fan. That makes you a bitch.”
Well, his comments absolutely backfired on him when the very trolls and keyboard warriors he was calling out came for his physical appearance. All the attention from his speech somehow diverted to plastic surgery speculations.
Take a look at what some of them had to say:
I know why we always think Ben Affleck is angry.

Ben Affleck’s plastic surgery is so bad that it makes Tom Brady’s new face look decent.

Ben Affleck couldn’t afford good plastic surgery? No wonder he seems so angry. That’s permanent.

Good lord. Ben Affleck looks like shit.
He seems high AF at this roast. And his face isn't articulating right after whatever plastic surgery he just had. Yikes.— Jason Patterson (@content_grinder) May 6, 2024
And now, an insider reports that Affleck is absolutely furious after all this and his frustration is aimed toward Jennifer Lopez who apparently forced him to get the work done.
Insider Reports Ben Affleck is Furious at Jennifer Lopez
An insider told In Touch Weekly that Affleck was “upset” with Lopez after the roast for influencing him to get fillers. Talking about how the actor’s comments about online trolls backfired on him, the insider stated,
“Ben’s comedy roast of Tom Brady seems to have backfired. He was coming for the public’s negative social media comments towards Tom but ended up igniting a firestorm about his own appearance.”
The insider then went ahead to state that Affleck is furious with Lopez who forced him to get fillers and Botox.
“He’s furious because he’s getting slammed for fillers and Botox that Jen pushed him to get.”
Affleck would apparently never have gotten any work done on his face if it wasn’t for Lopez who stated that everyone in Hollywood needs to maintain their face, giving an example of the actor’s good old friend, Matt Damon.
“Ben’s upset with Jen because if it wasn’t for her, he would never get work done, but she’s convinced him that everybody in Hollywood does a little facial maintenance, including his good friends, like Matt Damon.”
The insider concludes the report by stating that while going forward, Affleck “wants to age gracefully,” Lopez believes the fillers look good on him. Could this debate cause a rift in their marriage?
