.Lo & Ben Publicly Make Very Odd Vow

"Gigli" is so bad, so awful, so unwatchable, and such a box office bomb that stars and lovers Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez have made a solemn vow: They will never work together again.

That's the word from the New York Daily News as the film, which made a measly $3.8 million in its opening weekend, was pelted with bad reviews and snide remarks. The vow to never work together again was reportedly made because Ben and Jen--or "Bennifer" as gossip columnists have taken to calling them--are so distraught at the critical backlash. They blame themselves. They think the ONLY reason the movie failed is that they are famous, and fans are obsessed with gossip about their pending nuptials. "Ben's brushing it off the bad press," one source told IMDB News. "But J.Lo's taking it personally. They've admitted their relationship is more of a hindrance than a boost to a movie." Oops. Best not to tell Kevin Smith. He's the director of the upcoming movie "Jersey Girl," starring--you guessed it--both Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez.

At first, J.Lo thought their relationship would sell more tickets to "Gigli," since it was during the filming that they met. She is quick to add they did not fall in love then because she was still married to Cris Judd. That came later. But "Gigli" lets star-struck fans see where it all began. (As if they care.) Just last week, J.Lo told AP Radio: "(There) was bound to be publicity about us as well as the film, and that's fine! I just want people to know the movie is a good movie, is a lot of fun. There's some really great scenes in it, really interesting, funny, sexy stuff in it. And that they'll have a good time. It'll be good entertainment for them to go out and watch this week."

Turns out, mob enforcers kidnapping a federal prosecutor's mentally disabled brother isn't such good entertainment after all.
