Ben Affleck trolled for game outing with Jennifer Lopez: 'That a**hole smirk is undefeated'

Following their recent appearance at the Lakers vs Celtics game, Bennifer began trending on Twitter

#Bennifer fans were in for a surprise after the "it" couple sat courtside at the Boston Celtics vs Los Angeles Lakers game on December 7. Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez fans are undoubtedly one of the most iconic couples of our time with one of the biggest fandoms shipping them on social media every time they make a public appearance. Both of them were coming out of broken relationships before finding solace in each other's company. The couple initially dated between 2001-2004 and even got engaged during this period but the public scrutiny led to them parting ways. Fast forward to 2021, they're still under the scanner but things seem to be going smoothly for them this time around. 

Coming back to their recent appearance at the Lakers vs Celtics game on Tuesday night, Bennifer began trending on Twitter for one too many reasons. For starters, the couple was video bombed by LeBron James, and fans joked he did so to cut off the couple's screen time, but it was obvious that he was oblivious to what he was doing. JLo appeared to be in a pensive mood in the videos that were shared on social media while Affleck appeared to be having a good time. He was seen whispering in JLo's ear and smirking as he sat comfortably resting his leg on hers while the Latina looked on.
