- Here’s a couple light fringe Askew tidbits from Female First. First on the block, Affleck:
BEN AFFLECK was desperate to quit smoking after playing a chain-smoking bail bondsman in the new film SMOKIN’ ACES.
The 34-year-old was a regular smoker and had to increase his habit dramatically while making the movie.
He explains, “The whole week that I shot, I smoked, like, five packs a day.
“By the time the movie was over, I was so sick of smoking, I just didn’t want to do it anymore, and I quit.
And then there’s this one concerning Kevin getting Mrs. Affleck started on a bad habit of her own :
The ‘Alias’ star – who struggled to lose her post-baby weight after giving birth to her daughter Violet, her child with husband Ben Affleck – was taken for a McGriddle by her ‘Catch and Release’ co-star Kevin Smith, and now she can’t forget about how delicious the fast-food treat was.
A source said: “Jennifer has said the biggest, most indulgent onset romance of her career has been with the McGriddle. Kevin introduced her to it and now she can’t get them off her mind.â€
- And finally today, blogger Matt Ford thinks that the infomercial “Focus Factor†guy on TV has a striking resemblance to a longtime member of the View Askew family. Who, you may ask? Check out his blog! See ya next time, folks.
