Would we really want him too?
Mr. Smith sounds off
Speaking of Bennifer, Kevin Smith, who directed Jennifer Lopez and beau Ben Affleck in ??Jersey Girl? is blasting reports that neither of the stars will be pictured in posters for the film.
??Jersey Girl? producers reportedly had decided to keep the couple??s faces off all ads for the film because "Gigli? tanked. ??After ??Gigli,?? (Miramax) doesn??t want to take any chances with another laughing stock flop,? US Weekly quoted a source as saying in a report that was widely picked up. ??They??re going to promote this as a (director) Kevin Smith movie. It??s going to be about Kevin.?
??So f?????? ridiculous,? Smith rages on his web site. ??Trust me: I??ve seen the marketing concepts on this movie from as early on as when we were still shooting up to yesterday. Every poster is centered around Affleck.? Smith says that some show Ben and Jen, some show Ben and Liv Tyler, and some show him with the young boy from the film. ??None show me,? he continues, and goes on to rant about the media. A spokesman for US says the mag stands by the story.
