Matt Damon Really, Really Wants Bennifer To Make It This Time
Matt Damon, hot on the heels of his “The Other F-Word” debacle, faux-humbled by his daughter’s course correction and in need of some sympathetic press, put on his “I ship Bennifer 1.0 so much and just leave me the fuck alone about all this homophobic slur crap” cheerleading outfit (disarming expressions practiced in the bathroom mirror and a baseball hat to seem relatable). The hat came in handy when Matt joined Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez a little over a week ago to play the Frankie Grande in a stunting throuple no one asked for frolic on a private beach, feed everyone’s bizarre need for early-aughts nostalgia, and do their usual bro-dude shit in between Ben’s hand-holding sessions with JLo. According to People, no one else in this or any other universe could possibly be rooting more for Bennifer than Matt, which Matt recently barfed up in an episode of The Carlos Watson Show:

Matt Damon is Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez’s biggest fan.
In a PEOPLE exclusive clip of The Carlos Watson Show, the actor spoke about the couple during a rapid-fire round while promoting his new movie Stillwater.
When asked by host Carlos Watson if Affleck, who turns 49 on Sunday, and Lopez, 52, would make it, Damon said, “Oh man, no one’s pulling harder than I am.”
“They’re both great. I just want for their happiness,” Damon, 50, said, before adding, “They seem pretty happy right now.”
Here’s the clip from the show:

Matt and Ben have also been involved in another reunion in the form of collaborating as both writers and actors for their upcoming movie, The Last Duel, so rabid nostalgia freaks will have even more to fap to this year. People continues:
During an appearance on SiriusXM’s The Jess Cagle Show, Damon also spoke about the couple, when co-host Jess Cagle told the actor, “You’re very happy for Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez. I know you love getting asked about that.”
“Right. But how else would I be? Like, would I be unhappy? Like, ‘I hate true love,'” Damon replied at the time, before joking, “It sucks. Yeah. Yeah. I wish them nothing, but you know, hardship.”
Meanwhile, Ben and JLo are repelling Matt’s totally fierce and binding hardship curse, continuing their aggressive PR tour and allegedly considering moving into a Beverly Hills estate listed at $85 million, which sounds like it’s probably spacious enough to give Matt and his cheerleading wardrobe their own wing when he’s in town so they can all be more spontaneous about future threesome pap strolls. Everyone wins!
