Ben Affleck Finds Hair Soulmate In Shaggy Dog

Ben Affleck‘s hair tops our list of Things We Hope To Never See in 2012. Sure we know it’s for his role in Argo (which he’s also directing), but couldn’t he at least find a way to make it work? Slick it back or wear a hat or something? The Bieber do doesn’t look good on anyone — including Bieber himself. Violet Affleck, you seem like a smart one – we implore you to steal some scissors and go to Town (LOL, film reference) on your dad’s locks.

Pics of Ben and pregnant wife Jennifer Garner out in Brentwood this weekend, below!

The Post Halloween Edition: Top 10 Celebrity Costume Round-Up

We have so much material for you that your Halloween costumes should be sorted out for the next couple of years. There are so many options to check out. You could take inspiration from our very own FABlifers or you could take a look at our gallery of celebrity Halloween twitpics. Perhaps the early bird stars who played dress-up over the weekend will float your boat? Don’t see anything you like? Then skedaddle over to Best Week Ever’s rundown of the only 13 celeb Halloween costumes that matter, or VH1 Blog’s ultimate gallery of VH1 stars’ costumes. Our halos are polished to a high shine.

And we’re not done yet. Since yesterday was the last day for trick-or-treating and Halloween costumes, celebrities really outdid themselves. The final few we loved were folks like Calista Flockhart and Harrison Ford who cracked us up by getting their ’80s on as members of Mötley Crüe. Eden Wood from Toddlers and Tiaras was big this year with Chrissy Teigen and Fergie dressing up as her. Kelly Ripa outdid herself on Live! With Regis and Kelly along with Nick Lachey. Their first outfit sequence had Kelly dressed up as Eden as well, and Nick as Charlie Sheen. Their second has Kelly as Kim Kardashian and Nick (on stilts) as Kris Humphries on their wedding day. Ouch! The sexiest prize goes to Miranda Kerr who was the hottest ringmaster ever, and we’d like to give a round of applause to the mommies-to-be as well. Beyoncé was the cutest bumblebee in town, while Jennifer Garner was a witch.

Check out the gallery for the final top 10 celebrity Halloween costumes. We hope you had a FAB weekend.

Jennifer Garner Is A Mom-To-Be On A Mission

We love how pregnant and official Jennifer Garner looks right now. The actress was spotted in Santa Monica looking like she meant business in a blazer, killer high heels and a fitted skirt with a slit. And a rather large baby bump, of course. We’re used to seeing the trendy celebrity maternity wardrobe, but this is a whole different vibe … and we totally approve.

Hugh Jackman Talks “Humiliating” Butter Sex Scene With Jennifer Garner

The only thing better than an excellently-filmed, superbly-acted sex scene? Hugh Jackman’s sex scene with Jennifer Garner in their upcoming political comedy Butter, because it was humiliating. “I did probably one of the most embarrassing things I had to do on a movie set, or funny anyway,” the Real Steal actor told the Huffington Post. Other than star in Scoop, right Hugh? Scoop must be a close runner-up.

“We have an off-screen love scene, Jen and I, and it takes place in the back of a car, you don’t see anything. We had to record it in a car,” Hugh explained. Unfortunately, technical issues required the sound people to record Garner and Jackman separately. As Hugh explains, “And so, we both had to kind of perform our version, in character, of sex while the other one is quiet. And it was impossible not to be laughing your head off while the other person is doing it. That was humiliating… Guys never sound good during sex. It’s impossible to sound good.”Oh please, like 60% of the Earth’s population wouldn’t want to hear that, Hugh. Either way, we bet you still sounded better than Scoop sounded on the big screen. Seriously, that was not a particularly good movie!

Ben Affleck And Jennifer Garner Having Their Third Baby

Who knew these two were quiet contenders for giving pals Brangelina a run for their money? Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner are going to be parents for a third time! No other details have been released except a short confirmation to the Associated Press. Their representatives said that the couple are ”thrilled” to have baby number three on the way. Ben and Jenny (hah) are already parents to two daughters — Violet and Seraphina. Will the new addition to their brood make it a happy girly trio? Awww, we don’t know yet, but we’re sending them a big ol’ congratulations.

Prince William And Duchess Kate Work It At The BAFTAs In L.A

They came, they saw and they totally didn’t conk. Prince William and Duchess Kate were in L.A for the weekend and amidst their whirl of activities they attended the BAFTA ‘Brits to Watch’ Awards at the Belasco Theatre. Did the Duchess shut it down? Yes, she did. Kate wore an Alexander McQueen gown and Jimmy Choo sandals and clutch and bowled everyone over. Including the celebrities! The royal couple were seen chatting animatedly with the likes of Nicole Kidman, Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson, Jennifer Lopez and Jennifer Garner! And each and everyone of them looked completely star struck. Also hilariously, we spotted Nigel Lythgoe lurking behind Prince William as he chatted with Nicole Kidman. Have a look and see if you can spot him in our gallery below!

Jennifer Garner Stands Up For Alec Baldwin As Mayor Of New York

Post Weinergate, a couple of heads have been thinking about giving the post of Mayor a run since it’s wide open now. One of these heads thinking about contesting for New York’s Mayor in 2013 is Alec Baldwin. He even said that he was ”very interested” in running for office on behalf of the Democrats on CNN earlier this year. Now no offense, Alec, but WTF? Maybe we’re being unfair, but we just can’t wrap our heads around this whole deal, despite his longstanding political aspirations.

But Baldwin has an unlikely supporter in Jennifer Garner, so that should give him a bolster. The actress was on Fox & Friends yesterday and was put on the spot when asked about what her thoughts on the 30 Rock star running for office were. After a bit of a chuckle, Jennifer replied, “I think he would give us all a run for his money. He’s awesome, I love Alec.” She continued with, “It hasn’t stopped anyone before, I think he should go for it. He could run and let people vote!”

Not enough to change the subject apparently, because she was then asked whether she was officially endorsing him, amidst peals of laughter. Jennifer gamely answered, ” Yes, I stand up for Alec Baldwin!” Her husband, Ben Affleck, was thrown in as well, so Jennifer went ahead with, “Yes, Ben stands up for Alec Baldwin too.” What a cutie! That’s two votes of confidence for Alec. He’s totally going to run now, mark our words!

Ben Affleck Takes Black Eye, Family, To A Block Party In Brentwood

Oh, there is definitely a story here. Considering Jennifer Garner was wearing sunglasses as she left a block party in Brentwood, CA, yesterday, the only reason hubbie Ben Affleck wouldn’t do likewise is if he totally wanted to tell everyone in view about his black eye and how he got it. Was it a dad-time related mishap? A failed stunt on-set? Racquetball with another celeb? There’s just no reason this guy would be showing off that shiner unless he was a little proud of it. We almost wish he’d start a Twitter just to let us all know.

See photos of Ben, Jennifer, daugher Violet—and Ben’s bruise—in the gallery below.

Russell Brand And Helen Mirren Color Coordinate At Arthur Premiere

They totally did, right? Considering how chummy Russell Brand and Helen Mirren became over the course of filming the movie together, we wouldn’t be surprised if they coordinated outfits! The two Brits looked as in sync as a (broken up) boy band at the New York premiere of Arthur. Our favorite Dame looks as elegant as ever in a griege pleated outfit, with perfect hair and the right jewelry. Brand opted for a skinny suit in the same color and we appreciate the insouciant touches like the gold key chain and metallic shoes!

Jennifer Garner looks completely different from her two co-stars opting for darker, more metallic colors and we love her look! She’s looking better than we’ve seen in a long time in Oscar de la Renta and Cartier jewels. Greta Gerwig holds her own in monochrome, ’40s hair and red lips and that high-waisted skirt type silhouette that’s super hard to pull off! For more photographs of celebrities at the Arthur premiere, check out our gallery below. [Photos: Splash News Online]

Jennifer Garner To Sexy Up Agatha Christie In New Miss Marple Movie

Miss Marple is about to get a whole lot sexier…or a lot less if you’re a real GILF-hunter. Deadline reports that Jennifer Garner will play Agatha Christie’s amateur detective in a new Disney film that will turn the old biddy into an independent woman in her mid-30s.  While on one level this is just another case of Hollywood glossing up and dumbing down another literary character for mass consumption (Sherlock Holmes, anyone?), some fans are particularly annoyed that a character who’s whole appeal is based on being underestimated due to her age will be reduced to another meaningless “brand.” And way to imply that 40 might as well be 80 for your average actress, producers.

Then again, since Jennifer Garner is one of the film’s producers, it may not be quite as intelligence-insulting as fans will fear. But if the film is a hit, what will that mean for the old Miss Marple, who appeared in 12 novels, multiple movies and countless TV miniseries? Will new books about the “young” Marple be released? And if they wanted to pump life into a geriatric brand, couldn’t they just glam up Jessica Fletcher for a fresh new take on Murder, She Wrote instead?
