Jon Hamm shines, plus: Ben Affleck’s (alleged) love triangle at the NBR Awards

board_of_review_27_wenn3162759

Isn’t my Hamm lovely? I love it when he makes faces. Yes, Jon Hamm on the red carpet will never be quite as hot as Don Draper being slapped by a hooker, but it’s still the highlight of my day. These are all photos from the National Board of Review awards ceremony last night. All of the A-listers showed up. Well, not ALL, but many. And Blake Lively was there too (hahaha). Before we get to the other stuff, let’s just enjoy The Hamm.

Okay, and now the big scandal (if you believe it). The Town was being honored with something, and Ben Affleck, the director was there, as was much of the cast, like Jon Hamm up there, and Blake Lively. As you may remember, Ben and Blake were rumored to have an affair on set. Personally, I believed the rumors. Some of you didn’t. That’s fine. But it’s interesting that at every public event in which Blake and Ben are promoting the film, Jennifer Garner shows up too. Like she’s keeping her eye on things. All three – Blake, Ben and Jennifer – posed separately. Considering how desperate Blake has been lately, I think it was probably pretty smart for Jennifer to show up. Blake’s charms seem to have fallen flat on Ryan Gosling (after a while, at least), and Leonardo DiCaprio, but Ben… well, I just have a feeling that Blake is exactly the kind of trashy blonde he prefers to the wholesome mother of his children. Let’s see Blake first:

And Ben doesn’t look happy that his wife and potential jumpoff are in the same room at all.

CB says Jennifer needs to stop Botoxing. I’m not seeing that so much as her out-of-control lips. She really needs to stop with the lip stuff, she’s starting to look Nicole Kidman-esque.

Christian Bale isn’t involved in the new Bermuda Triangle, but I think he looks really nice here. I’m not a huge fan of the Jesus look on him (or in general), but this is one of his better red carpet looks.

    Jennifer’s dress, uh no.

  2. normades says:

    Blake should date Justin “take me seriously as an actor” Timberlake or Jake “I need a beard” Gyllenhaal

  3. jackie says:

    Seriously @2!!!!!

    That would really benefit all of the involved, and since she is a step up from Biel, who is where Blake is heading in a few years, Justin should make it happen before its too late!

    And I personally really LOVE this new triangle! Like, ALOT. I live to hate Blake, and think its hilarious the pains Jennifer goes for to keep this wholesome imagine together.

    It’s like Brange/Aniston, with a twist!

    Although, I do recognize that its not fair to the girls, whatever is happening or happened.

  4. Reality says:

    Confusing title. I was wondering who the lucky, lucky girl involved in a love triangle with Jon Hamm & Ben Affleck was…

  5. Kaboom says:

    Ben looks baked rather than unhappy.

  6. Kaiser says:

    Reality – You’re right, sorry. I changed the title!

  7. sharylmj says:

    what the heck is Jennifer wearing?? that dress is so UGLY!!! and her hair is flat.. she can do SO MUCH better!! come on girl… you are smarter than you look on this red carpet!!

  8. guesty says:

    ben isn’t a list enuff for blake!!! & both of those dresses are just awful.

  9. OriginalGracie says:

    Why are there no full frontal shots of The Hamm in that suit? I can’t let my eyes roam down to see the Hamm Dong free and unfettered.

  10. Anti-icon says:

    Blake seems like budget Diane ?, (name escapes, the one who dates Joshua Jackson and is a good actress….) Jennifer is doing something BAD to her face.

  11. Hollowdoll says:

    I like Christian Bale but no one pulls that look off like Jesus!Padalecki.

  12. Jezi says:

    Actually Kaiser I think those are really Jennifer’s lips. She’s had the same size lips since she was on Felicity.

  13. Rex says:

    I just don’t get Blake’s appeal. I think she is pretty, but not that great.

  14. Rachel says:

    All I know is that when Blake is Jenn Garner’s age it is not going to be a pretty sight. She has a killer body now, but the face is meh. Jenn Garner on the other hand has a gorgeous face and a pretty good body after 2 kids. Why Ben is doing this to his wife is beyond me, but if he gets caught both he and whoever he is chetaing on her with are going to have a hard time career wise. Destroying the happiness of the dimple parade is career suicide.

  15. OriginalGracie says:

    @Icon: Diane Kruger. And yes, they do look alot alike!

  16. Pow! says:

    I agree with Jezi- I think those are Jen’s natural lips. they’ve always been that way. I also think everyone looks terrible in those photos… guys included. Bummer!

  17. Ariadna says:

    Personally, I don’t see anything wrong with Jennifer’s face. Nose job maybe? But Blake…she looks stoned or desparate or both. Isn’t she like hollywood favourite w*ore? So trashy

  18. hey says:

    Ben is into tranny hookers.But it’s more acceptable if people think he bangs Blake.

  19. cici says:

    jen’s had those lips since the beginning of time! are you talking about plumping or something else- because she’s ALWAYS had huge lips. even back in her felicity days.

    love jen.

    love blake, too. but not with ben. who is with my jen.

  20. citysuede says:

    what the heck is blake wearing? i wouldn’t even leave the house in that. also jennifer – your dress is just as bad. and your bra strap is showing, honey.

  21. mln76 says:

    Jen should channel Sidney Bristow and kick Blake’s ass.

  22. lucy2 says:

    I used to think Blake was pretty, but lately not so much. I don’t know if it’s her makeup or her weird photo faces or what.
    I’m totally willing to believe she’s a social climber. I would HOPE that Ben didn’t let himself be climbed.

  23. Praise St. Angie! says:

    OriginalGracie, you crack me up!

    Truth be told, that was the first thing I did…scroll down to see if there was a full frontal of the Hamm!

    re: Garner’s lip enhancement…don’t shoot me, Jen fans, but according to this pic, she’s enhanced her upper lip. (Neutral on this actress so don’t call me a “hater” please.)

  24. MNGIRL76 says:

    Thank you – Praise St. Angie!
    I was just going to through up a link! SOOOOOOO not her lips!

  25. Lydia says:

    Keep believing the BS!. You’re keeping the tabloids rich.
    Ben is not interested in Blake.If he was ,They wouldn’t at some award show.They would be having wild ,hot sex somewhere. When Ben pursued JLO , she divorced her gay dancer at a drop of hat. .Anyway she has her eye on Leonardo Dicaprio(she’s more his type-Bimbo/model type).They exchanged numbers at Jeremy Renner’s bithday party

  26. Sumodo1 says:

    The Hamm always looks, to me, more inviting and luscious than Don Draper.

  27. brin says:

    Hope Ben is not a douche, Blake isn’t worth it.

  28. jackie says:

    I hate her for making Ryan Gosling seem cheap, like he was just another step for her to climb, to get near Leo or whatever.

    This does not bode well with me!

  29. PinkMarshmallowCreme says:

    What about the report of Ben Affleck and Blake being guests at Jeremy Renner’s recent b-day party?

    Those two can’t keep away from one another.

  30. OtherChris says:

    Don Draper being slapped by a hooker? Why am I not watching that show?

    By the way, why does he always put his hands in front of his crotch like that? We all know he’s not wearing any undies and that he has a big dong. He should show off the goods a little bit.

  31. Madison says:

    Jennifer Garner looks boring in that boring sack of a dress and the fake lips, get over it garnerloonies she’s had work done on her face like every other actress in hollywood and is about as real as blake lively’s boobs. Even though I don’t like it, the color and style of Blake Lively’s dress is nicer than Jennifer Garner’s because it’s the kind of dress you wear to an awards show.

  32. LuLu says:

    Ben probably wishes Jen wasn’t there. He’s uncomfortable. He always looks happy when Jen isn’t around. Ben might not be trustworthy, but he’s definitely A-list, given his directing/writing talents. I’ll say it again – they are the WEIRDEST couple. Jen is B-list TV material. I say it’s only a matter of time before they are finished – I think he just stays in it because he wants the appearance of a stable family and he’s a private guy (i.e. he’s trying to shun the image he generated when he was with J-Lo). But … that doesn’t mean he’s happy with Jen, and in my perspective … he doesn’t seem it. She was his rebound from J-Lo and now he’s kind of stuck – that’s my opinion.

  33. Maravilha says:

    Jennifer is really pretty; she has good skin and glossy hair, but she always looks a bit of a mess! It is like she is always in a hurry, so she has a quick shower and then forgets to put on any jewellery or perfume. She looks like she smells of cheap soap!

  34. Bodhi says:

    I actually like Jen’s dress, much more so than Blake’s to be honest. The shoulder’s on Blake’s are atrocious.

    I don’t buy the alleged triangle at all. Ben isn’t going to leave Jen, much less for a flash-in-the-pan actress like Blake, so what would be the point? Its not like Blake can be all “Ooo look at me, I banged Ben”; she’d be shunned immediately.

  35. cici says:

    um. i had never seen the pic of jen with the “thin lip.” i agree it appears she has done something. it doesn’t make anyone a “garnerloonie” if they think that ben should not be cheating on her and his daughters. don’t care if she was rebound, “dumb,” or “obviously B list.” He married her, and had 2 cute little girls with her. He should not be cheating/leaving.

  36. beth says:

    i swear if Jon Hamm ever looks my way, and his eyes registers the slightest recognition i exist, I WILL FAINT.

  37. Hakura says:

    @Praise St. Angie! (#24)- I’m pretty neutral on Jen G. as well. Wow, you can really tell she had something dramatic done to upper lip in that picture. (Thanks for sharing!)

    As Madison points out…Jen’s dress is a bit ‘sack-like’ & boring. Doesn’t do her justice at all.

    I do hope that there’s been no cheating. But in Hollywood, it wouldn’t be surprising. I guess I could see why someone like Blake (young, blonde, reasonably attractive, & not really ‘established’ in Hollywood) would appeal to someone who was married with children & well established in his career.

    Not to say it’s true, but it’s not so strange to think it could be.

  38. crab says:

    Blake always looks like she’s going to sneeze!

  39. california angel says:

    If anyone can empower women with a movement these days, it will be you and your “equal-objectification of men” movement Kaiser. You’re fighting the good fight for us all!
    “Yes, Jon Hamm on the red carpet will never be quite as hot as Don Draper being slapped by a hooker, but it’s still the highlight of my day.” – lol!

  40. french girl says:

    Jennifer’s dress is really ugly

  41. Haden says:

    Affleck looks so cheesy in this pic… trying to be sexy? Yuck… he is the quintessential Hollywood tool.
