Get back on the first one way flight to Congo and stay there for a couple of decades. My eyes are still recovering from seeing you in red spandex outfit in Daredevil.

[SuperBucky]

A baby? Oh wow. Thats new. I am jumping for joy.

[horsey]

get back to work now affleck, i haven't seen a jack ryan film in over 5 frigging years.

[proudandtrue]

Ben used to love hookers when he was making somewhat decent flicks (according to a tell-all book). Name her like one of your ex pros, like Raven or Cherry...

[mainemomma]

How about Precious Perfect?

[Orphie]

Piven Affleck. . . has a certain ring to it, no?

[mainemomma]

Yep.. but I was thinking more of Olbermann..

[JudgeSchmells]

Congrats Ben. Now can you please stop starring in movies?

[Changeling]

oh, stop. He's never going to win an Oscar, but he's fine if he has a strong director.

[KatDawgATL]

Too late, best supporting -"Good Will Hunting", .....I know.

[KatDawgATL]

Is it just me or does Jennifer look like an amazing "lay" on top of having killer dimples.

[Esot3ric]

It's not just you. :)

[fishgirl26]

Please name the kid something normal...the world doesn't need anymore Calliopies, Talula's or anything else!

[2008FedUP]

Her name is Tulip Daffodil Gardenia Affleck. She weighs in at 5 bulbs!

[JennieB]

Myabe they'll name her Lily, which is very pretty.

Jennifer seems to be normal, unlike the rest of the Hollywood nutjobs who love to subject their children to humiliating names so they can appear cool. Naming your kid Bronx Mogli doesn't make you cool, it makes you an obvious wannabe and/or an idiot.

[sherrzinpa]

Violet is pretty normal... They don't seem like the "Hey, let's give our baby a name that will give him/her absolute humiliation once they start school." kind of people.

[MizLiz]

I'm sure they will. After all, "Violet Anne" is a lovely name.

[YeahDonkey]

Congrats HAZA and Kudos to all of you!!!!!

p.s.
redsox still suck

[starcasmdotnet]

Congrats to Garfleck! They owe us one, though, because we had just finished a funny post about Jennifer Garner's never-ending pregnancy when the news was announced! The power of Murphy's Law and jinx combined! Check it out:

Don't worry, we were nice :) Congrats again to a celebrity couple that we actually like! (It will be weird for Violet to have an older sister all of a sudden. Loooooong pregnancy joke!)

[scorpioleidy]

Congrats! They should name her Jade, or Lilac, or something complementary to Violet.

[ReasonIsMyReligion]

Violynne?

[Chlowina]

jeez

[2008FedUP]

What happened to names like Mary, Susan and Jane??

[pipp]

Violet is an old fashioned name. Jennifer and Ben named their Violet after her grandmother.

[MizLiz]

The Australian actress Poppy Montgomery has sisters named Rose, Lily and Daisy. I think.

[lynchzilla]

I predict that Ben Affleck will eventually go into politics. He's tall, handsome, and very smart (been on Bill Maher many times) and he has a beautiful and grounded spouse.

[ReasonIsMyReligion]

Not to slam Ben Affleck, but it's been a while since the A-List lined up to be on Real Time... much as I love Bill Maher.

Numerous equally, or moreso celebs, one of which blogs on HuffPo: Alec Baldwin.

[horsey]

Funny you should mention he's been on Maher's show, that's when I notice he doesn't look so smart. Always grasping for the idea, never making a crystal clear point.

Nothing against Ben but lets put more competent people into politics. not everyone with an opinion needs to be there.

[BartLA]

Who's the real father?

[pineapplegal]

What???? Totally not necessary!

[Chlowina]

Need a cigarette after that comment?

[Culturemaven]

My, don't you have issues!

[Jacqueline3]

So?

[Aesthete]

Congratulations!
