Celebrity Status – Divorce Rumours, New Movies, And Buckle Up Blue Jays!
For Friday, May 17th:
The divorce rumors have begun for Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck. As with everything unconfirmed, take this with several grains of salt, but here’s the scoop: They haven’t been seen in public together since March 30th, when they were spotted house hunting in Manhattan. Then on May 14th, Lopez and her producing partner were seen shopping for real estate in Beverly Hills without Affleck (FYI: they already have an LA home) BUT they were both seen this week wearing their wedding rings, so fingers crossed that it’s a whole bunch of nothing.
In theaters, Ryan Reynolds stars in ‘IF’. IF stands for Imaginary Friends and lots of celebs are voicing the characters: Awkwafina, Bradley Cooper, Keegan-Michael Key and John Krasinski who’s directing, with other vocal cameos from Matt Damon, Maya Rudolph, Amy Schumer, Steve Carrell, George Clooney, Jon Stewart, Emily Blunt and the late Louis Gossett Jr., to whom the movie is dedicated.
Also in theatres, Marisa Abela portrays Amy Winehouse in the biopic ‘Back to Black’…
