See the humdrum things Ben Affleck bought at a grocery store when ex JLo was kissing a hunky man at AMAs
Ben Affleck was at the grocery store with his German Shepherd dog on Monday when his ex-wife Jennifer Lopez kissed several dancers at the AMAs.
JLo locked lips with a hunky man and sexy lady in front of the gasping Las Vegas crowd as she hosted the event.
But Ben was doing a humdrum chore in Los Angeles.
The Oscar-winning actor was in a plaid shirt and jeans with sneakers as he hit a supermarket with his loyal canine.
And what the Batman actor snapped up was surprising as there seemed to be little food in his cart.
What he purchased were several packs of low-calories canned sodas like Diet Dr Pepper and Waterloo. He also had packs of A&W Root Beer and Mountain Dew.
There also appeared to be bags on potato chips.

Meanwhile, Lopez made a super splash in Sin City as she talked up her summer concert series.
The Grammy winner had a total of eight outfits for the night.
She said she waits until the last minute to decide on outfits for events so she can make sure to 'excite' her fans.
The American Music Awards 2025 host waited days before her presenting duty on Monday to pick her plunging fish scales dress.
But Jennifer always confirms an ensemble to her stylist right before an event because she likes switching things up based on how she is feeling.
The 55-year-old singer told People: 'We started doing our fittings just yesterday, and there's so many things to choose from.
'I don't know what's going to wind up on the show... it'll be a lot of last-minute decisions, I think.
Meanwhile, JLo locked lips with a hunky man and sexy lady in front of the gasping Las Vegas crowd as she hosted the event
'I work with my stylist and we kind of kick around ideas like, "What do we want it to be for the performance and what do we want it to be for the hosting and what's our vibe?"'
Lopez wore an incredible eight different looks for her big night held at the Fontainebleau Las Vegas.
Lopez likes to change her mind.
'We feel it out because I think it does change,' noted the ex of Alex Rodriguez.
Sometimes she may want to go elegant, other times the diva wants to sex it up by flashing the flesh.
'For me, my feelings change from month to month, like, "Who do I want to be today?" because I feel like there's so many different sides to who I am fashion-wise.'
But with whatever outfit the Let's Get Loud hitmaker decides on, it has to make her fans happy.
JLO said: 'I always want to keep the audience engaged and excited.
'I have one or two girls that I worked with and have worked with for years, Kelly and now Hannah.
'And we really just have honed it down to, "We'll do this. We'll do this. We'll do this.
'You take the top. I'll take the shoe."
'We just have learned to do it so fast, so I'm sure we hold a world record or something somewhere.'
Also on Monday Lopez announced that she will have several tour stops in Las Vegas, a city where she used to have a residency.

Alice Evans shares housing update after claiming she could end up homeless amid financial troubles following Ioan Gruffudd divorce - as her GoFundMe reaches $18k
Alice Evans has shared a housing update after turning to her fans to help her support her children amid financial troubles. The actress, 56, claimed in court documents earlier this month that she would be homeless in three weeks because her financial situation is so 'dire' following her divorce from Ioan Gruffudd. She then created her own Divorce fundraiser, setting up a GoFundMe which has so far raised $18,828, but admitted she was 'so embarrassed' to have to do so. But in a positive update shared on Instagram on Monday, Alice revealed that she and her daughters now have a 'roof over their heads' and had retained their possessions after worrying she would lose them as she thanked fans for donating. She said: 'Just wanted to tell everybody that me and the girls and Emma are safe with a roof over our heads! It's been a whirlwind but we made it through the last three days and managed to save all our belongings too! From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the Daily Mail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'We could never, ever have done this without the incredible love and kindness from all of you. Honestly I was at my wit's end and you saved me. 'Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I will keep you posted. Love you so much.' Taking to Go Fund Me, the star created her own Divorce fundraisers and has already raised an incredible $16,927 from generous fans after admitting 'I cannot explain how low things got'. Confessing she felt shame in turning to the public for help she penned: 'I'm so embarrassed about this. If you're here you know my story. 'You know how much I struggle to keep my two girls healthy and happy and a roof over their heads. 'You know what I've been through. It never ends. I'm just getting squeezed in every which way and smeared in the media so that nobody even wants to employ me.' And now the star has provided an update after raising almost $17,000, out of a $25,000 goal, as she revealed the family are now able to move her furniture into storage next week. She wrote: 'Quick update. The donations have allowed us to afford a moving truck and a persons to help us move all our furniture into storage next Saturday. She previously explained to fans: 'I need help getting the girls and I to our next place. Moving costs and deposit. We have found such lovely little places - tiny, but they felt like home' 'This is amazing because my main worry was having to abandon it here. Looking for temp accommodation after that and will keep you posted. 'I am so incredibly grateful and humbled by your generosity. I cannot explain how low things got last Wednesday when I reached out. I am unbelievably appreciative and forever indebted to you all. Thank you.' Alice had previously explained she was struggling to cover the moving costs. She told fans: 'I need help getting the girls and I to our next place. Moving costs and deposit. We have found such lovely little places - tiny, but they felt like home. We don't need much. 'I am selling most of my stuff and have jobs lined up to keep us on our feet. We just need that extra bit to get us over the finish line. To be able to present a cash payment upfront that will get us in the door.' Expressing her gratitude she added: 'Thank you from the bottom of my heart to all those of you who have shown me compassion and love and understanding. 'I will never, ever forget your kindness - every single one of you.' Alice previously claimed that her ex was living in comfort in a $5,500 a month apartment with a home gym while she and their two children cannot afford 'basic necessities'. She claimed she would be on the streets by June 1st because she cannot pay her rent and all the shelters in Los Angeles are full. She accused Ioan, 51, who married his second wife Bianca Wallace last month, of 'intentionally' turning down acting gigs to keep his income low during their split and avoid having to pay her more. Meanwhile, in February this year, Alice revealed she's being evicted from her LA home after being 'unable to pay her rent'. The actress wrote on Instagram that she and her daughters have 'no way of renting even the cheapest room in the city' after being beset by financial woes amid her bitter court battle with ex-husband Ioan. Sharing a sweet throwback snap with her two daughters, Alice shared that she is like many others in Los Angeles trying to find a new place to live after the city was devastated by fires in January. The bombshell legal filing at a court in Los Angeles comes after Ioan accused Alice of using cocaine in front of their two daughters - and even offering the girls the drug. Meanwhile Ioan and his wife Bianca put on a very smitten display while attending the 32nd Annual Race To Erase MS Gala in Los Angeles last week. The Fantastic Four actor, 51, and Aussie actress Bianca, 32, packed on the PDA on the star-studded red-carpet - just a month after happily tying the knot. The couple took to their respective Instagrams on Friday to share a grainy video of the them tying the knot in a romantic ceremony, captioning their posts: 'Mr & Mrs Gruffudd' Last month, the couple took to their respective Instagrams to share a video of them tying the knot in a romantic ceremony, captioning their posts: 'Mr & Mrs Gruffudd. Marriage now, wedding later.' The marriage comes two years after the Welsh actor's bitter divorce from ex Alice with whom he shares two daughters. Ioan and Alice Evans divorced in July 2023. However, they are still battling fiercely over spousal support and custody and financial support for their two daughters Ella, 15, and Elsie, 11. At the September 9 court hearing, Judge Josh Freeman Stinn signed off on a stipulated agreement in which Ioan pays $3,000 a month temporary child support and $1,500 a month temporary spousal support until another February 13 hearing where a more permanent support arrangement will be forged. Ioan planned to call his then fiancée Bianca as a witness at the February hearing to testify that his ex wife 'stalked, harassed and abused' her, repeatedly violating a three-year domestic violence restraining order (DVRO) which she and Ioan took out in August 2022, after enduring a 'smear campaign' of hateful text messages, emails and social media posts from her. Ioan claims that Alice 'engaged in a pattern of damaging and defamatory conduct against me, aimed at intimidating and harassing me and my fiancé, Bianca Wallace, while alienating our two young children from me.' Ioan – whose latest movie, Bad Boys: Ride or Die has grossed more than $403 million worldwide – has fought Evans' demands for more money, claiming he's paid some $400,000 more in spousal support that he needed to under their pre-marital agreement. In earlier court papers, he called her claims of poverty 'exaggerated' and said it's a 'false narrative' that she and the children have been left destitute. The former couple met on the set of the movie 102 Dalmatians more than 20 years ago. They fell in love in real life and were married in Mexico in 2007. Ioan filed for divorce in March 2021, shortly after Alice announced on social media that her husband of 14 years was walking out on her and their two daughters.

As the first born, am I the smartest? Maybe – but siblings shape us in far more interesting ways
A new book about sibling relationships, The Family Dynamic by Susan Dominus, examines how things like birth order and the specific achievements of your siblings affect a person's life trajectory. As such, some of my favourite research is back in the public eye: the studies that suggest that I, as the eldest of three children, am the cleverest. I'm kidding. I don't actually think this is true in my own sibling group, but sure, I'll take it, and say so in the national press: I'm smarter than you guys, science confirms. I am very interested in siblings and their influences, though. So much so that I wrote my first novel about a brother-sister relationship. Siblings shape you in ways that are less deliberate than parents, which means their influence is less discussed, though just as important. That said, birth order has remained a public fascination, with parents agonising over whether a middle child is overlooked or eldest is overburdened. I definitely have classic 'eldest daughter syndrome': the tendency for the oldest girl in a family to take on roles of responsibility. Planning of family matters has generally fallen to me in the past, and I remain a planner. I like control to the freakish degree that I eat the same breakfast and lunch every single weekday and run my to-do list with the iron fist of a navy Seal commander. Still, I have often thought that some of the well-worn sibling birth order archetypes – the type-A eldest daughter, the laid-back middle sibling, the rebellious youngest child – must be too simple. They sat in my mind alongside things like star signs: fun but ultimately baseless ways to parse the eternal puzzle of why people are the way that they are. But it seems, as Dominus found, that the studies do bear this stuff out. Eldest children apparently outstrip their younger counterparts in cognitive tests by as early as their first birthday, probably due to the increased parental attention they receive during the however-brief period they are an only child. And sibling influence can be incredibly powerful. Dominus interviews families in which each child went on to achieve success in very different fields, and were spurred to do so specifically by what their siblings were doing. My brother was a quiet little boy, either naturally or because I did all his talking for him. We were very close as children – I would get my hair cut short like his, and enjoyed it if people mistook us for twins. But we grew into quite different people, and that is probably no accident. For instance, he went on to pursue Stem subjects, and I pursued the humanities: the boy whose sister spoke for him went for numbers and concepts, and I went for words. Age gaps between siblings can also complicate the effect of birth order. My sister is nearly 10 years younger than me, whereas my brother is only 18 months my junior. She told me: 'I feel like being the youngest, with two siblings quite a bit older than me, meant that I sculpted my perception of what is 'cool' on a pretty much even mix of your respective interests.' She's very into music (my brother) and also video games (me). I think she's also more emotionally robust than I am. We both wonder whether this is partly the result of getting a front-row seat to all of mine and our brother's chaotic decisions and teenage crises, and being able to take notes. By now, my siblings and I are, roughly, who we're going to be. We're all adults. Perhaps it is less that we are now honing ourselves consciously or subconsciously to resemble or differ from one another, but that we act as vivid mirrors for each other to really see ourselves in. Sometimes, in the company of my brother and sister, I have an ambient sense of something similar to not liking myself very much. Partly, it's that near-universal experience of regression in the family home: we start to occupy childish roles to befit the dynamics first built in childhood. But it's also that these are people who have seen every side of me. And they have not been afraid to challenge my less lovable attributes. That feeling of not liking myself is maybe more accurately a feeling of being truly, wholly known for my best and worst traits. My irritability, my belief that I know better than others, my melodrama. I see their flaws too, and they know that I see them. Not unexpectedly, some of these flaws are shared. I asked my brother about this, and he said: 'Seeing characteristics of yourself in people you love is quite helpful. Like, oh maybe I'm not that bad: I don't hate them for the way they are, but the opposite.' And for all that we bicker, it's a beautiful thing to be loved by people who, unlike your parents, are not hard-wired to love you unconditionally, but who know you just as well as your parents do, and for almost as long.
