AFFLECK TO SHILL FOR SHAMPOO
Hollywood hunk Ben Affleck has become the latest celebrity to win a huge advertising contract -- he is set to promote men's shampoo.
Affleck will join fiancee Jennifer Lopez as a spokesperson for beauty giant L'Oreal's shampoo range.
Sources suggest that the sexy actor will net at least $1.5 million for taking part in the promotion.
An insider close to Affleck says that he is "delighted" with the deal.

Rather ironic timing-- this bit of news coming out shortly after the "toupee" rumors surfaced.

That sentence speaks volumes. I wonder who organised this gig for him...
I hate it when high-quality actors lower themselves to appearing in TV commercials. I shuddered when David Niven became an ad spokesperson for a US-based airline, and Orson Welles flogged wine on telly towards the end of an illustrious career.
Mr. Affleck should really stand up to J.Lo before she completely scraps his career...

Agreed (I quote you a lot today, Feyd ;) ). Fight back, Ben, fight back, the beeyatch's making you dig your own grave, lad!

Question: When was he ever ON the "artistic role call"?;)
So is he gonna have a head full of foam on his head and tell us which side tingles more?

No, he's most likely going to be standing there with suds-covered hair, then turn to J.Lo (who'll be standing just off-camera) and ask her permission to tell us which side tingles more. She's probably even writing the copy for his ad.
I hate it when guys get a "spinectomy" to be with a woman they love. Ben, grow some backbone and do whatever the hell you want...

That's your opinion. It's just business. He is earning a living, and he is young enough, good enoug & handsome enough to still make a lot more movies.
And it is an "in your face" to the tabloid lies about a toupee, whic were not true, and he wanted to show the public the truth about his hair and get back at enemies.
