Ben Affleck wants to be left alone by Jennifer Lopez; reveals his bitter feeling for her song 'Wreckage of You'
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Aniston went from 'IT couple' of Hollywood to being like the bitter neighbours who avoid each other. While the actor had been her muse, she did write a song inspired by him, making him feel that she had left him alone after their doomed romance. Jennifer Lopez is just singing about her experience... Lopez's new sentimental song, 'Wreckage of You,' is quite inspired by the divorce between the former couple, and the 'Good Will Hunting' actor just wants a break from it. 'JLo's happy to be singing her truth. She's totally unapologetic and convinced this will be a launchpad for a whole new musical chapter,' the insider said, according to Radar Online. Furthermore, the source claimed that if it hurts Ben, then 'all the better,' because the 56-year-old hasn't forgotten the pain, and is merely setting up the music to write about her experience. 'What she's insinuating is that Ben's the one that fell apart, not her,' the report added. Ben Affleck wants rest from the drama For Affleck, he looked at the song as a cheap shot after the two years of marriage imploded. Claiming that it's a foot too far, the actor thought that it had already been a difficult time at work, and the last thing he wanted was his friends asking him about his opinions on Lopez's revenge lyrics. 'All he wants is to forget the marriage ever happened, but she's going out of her way to keep making things awkward and miserable,' the report stated, before adding, 'He's getting the impression that she wants to punish him till the end of time. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Swelling and internal bleeding in the brain, help this baby Donate For Health Donate Now Undo " Meanwhile, the former couple is facing an issue of being on the same page regarding their real estate. 'This nightmare scenario involving their house is still rumbling on and costing him a fortune. Now he has to deal with the fallout from song. It's just too much for him,' the report concluded.

Matthew Lawrence wants to use AI for 'something special' with Robin Williams' voice
Matthew Lawrence wants to use AI to do "something really special" with the late Robin Williams. The 45-year-old star played one of the comedy legend's children in Mrs Doubtfire and he is keen to get the consent of the late actor's family to work on a project using the voice of Robin, who took his own life in 2014. Matthew told Entertainment Weekly: 'Obviously, with the respect and with the okay from his family, I would love to do something really special with his voice, because I know for a generation, that voice is just so iconic. 'It's not just the fact that I knew him and worked with him. "It's in my head, it's in everybody's head, and it would be so cool." Matthew got the idea of using AI to recreate Robin's voice after he saw an old commercial starring the Good Will Hunting star which made him realise there were parallels to the modern day. He explained: 'It's kinda like this very contemporary, modern, almost sort of foreshadowing of what's going on commercial that he did, where he did this computerised voiceover. 'And it always stuck with me. And then, during his passing, with the AI coming out, I'm like, 'Man, he's gotta be the voice of AI. He's gotta be the voice in something.' So yeah, I would love to do that.' One thing Matthew would love to use AI to do with Robin's voice is to give out driving directions on a phone. He said: 'It would be so cool. I'm telling you." The former Boy Meets World actor previously praised Robin for the way he treated him like an adult when they made Mrs. Doubtfire. He told People magazine: "He really opened up. I was only 12. I mean this guy … Man, he was just so amazing to be able to give me the respect, almost as an adult, at 12 years old, to really get an open look into his life, the performer side and then also the private side, and how they wrestled with each other." And even after filming on the 1993 movie was complete, Robin made sure he stayed in touch with his young co-star and offered him advice when he needed it. Matthew said: "He stayed a part of my life, you know? That movie could have wrapped [and] like everybody else, he could have gone his separate way, but he didn't. "He stayed invested, and he gave me some incredible life lessons that definitely kept me from some dark places at times. And I'll just never be able to thank him enough for that."

Nick Offerman Blasts Donald Trump For Cutting National Parks Budget
Hot Topic 🔥 Full coverage and conversation on Politics Nick Offerman has called out President Donald Trump after his 'big, beautiful bill' — which he signed into law earlier this month — slashed hundreds of millions of dollars in funding to America's national parks. 'Let me get this straight, Mr. President. You cut $267 million to get back $90 million. Now, I'm no mathematician but I believe that's called shitting the bed,' said Offerman in an appearance on Tuesday's episode of The Daily Show. 'But then again, I didn't go to Wharton Business College.' The Parks & Recreation star — who portrayed libertarian official Ron Swanson — turned to several news reports detailing how America's 'pastoral gifts' are 'under attack' as staffing levels have seen a notable dip across the National Park System since January, per the National Parks Conservation Association. One clip noted that park scientists, in some cases, have been forced to help clean toilets due to staffing shortages. Offerman — who quipped that the situation is like " Good Will Hunting but in reverse" — stressed that the cuts are a 'huge mistake.' 'No scientist has the strength to clean the skid marks of a man who's been eating beans and campfire hot dogs for the past three days! They're weak,' he joked. He went on to refer to Trump 'shaking down foreigners' after he issued an executive order earlier this month that calls for foreign tourists to face higher park entry fees, a move that the administration expects to generate more than $90 million annually. After highlighting how national parks contributed a record $55.6 billion to the U.S. economy and supported over 415,000 jobs just two years ago, Offerman explained why the parks are a 'true miracle.' 'It is an affordable vacation that everyone can take inside our own borders, whether you're traveling with your family or abandoning your constituents during a crisis,' quipped the actor as a photo of Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) amid his Cancun controversy appeared on screen. Offerman, who recently revealed why Ron Swanson would've 'despised' Trump, then mocked the president for speaking so 'fondly' of national parks in years past. He turned to a 2020 clip of Trump who, when referencing sequoia trees at Yosemite National Park, appeared to pronounce the park's name as 'yo-semites.' 'It's Yosemite,' Offerman remarked. ''Yo, Semites,' is what a bad undercover cop might say to a group of Hasidic Jews.'
