Damon said Bennifer made Ben seem like a ‘talentless meathead’
In 2003, Jennifer and Ben were enjoying unprecedented public attention – not always a good thing. Ben didn’t think so, though. Damon said that Ben told him in 2021 that he was in the “worst situation (he) could be” and sold “magazines, but not movie tickets.”

More than ten years later, in 2015, Damon didn’t appear to be a fan of Lopez’s relationship with Ben. “Ben was cast as a talentless meathead,” said the court of public opinion. Meanwhile, Damon made a “career-maintenance action” by withdrawing from the press to keep people from becoming oversaturated with him – unlike you-know-who.
