Kevin Smith and Ben Affleck seperate
This twosome’s days in Hollywood frat boy heaven seem to be over for good:
Sounds like director Kevin Smith is feeling a tad snubbed by his old friend Ben Affleck.
At Monday night’s premiere of “Reel Paradise,” the documentary he produced about a movie maven who screens indie films for the residents of Fiji, Smith riffed on the fact that he wasn’t invited to Affleck’s hush-hush June Caribbean wedding to “Alias” star Jennifer Garner.
“I was supposed to be a groomsman and reader at the [2004] Affleck and [Jennifer] Lopez wedding,” said the director of “Jersey Girl,” Affleck’s catastrophic big-screen pairing with J.Lo., the other Jennifer. “I figure Garner saw me as the curse that jinxed it, and thought, best to keep me as far away from them as possible.”
But is he going to get the newlyweds a wedding present anyway?
Apparently not.
“I’m gonna [have sex with] my wife to celebrate their marriage,” he said. “If it would make her feel better, she can call me Ben and I can call her Jen.” (As if this fantasy couldn’t be any weirder, Smith’s wife is also named Jennifer.)
Smith couldn’t resist elaborating: “It would be the most fictional role-playing ever. I’m no Affleck, which is bad in the bedroom, but good professionally. It’s good not to be Ben Affleck professionally, because then I don’t have to explain ‘Gigli’” � another Affleck bomb co-starring J.Lo. � “for the next ten years.”
Not that he’s bitter or anything.
