Behind the Scenes: Britney Spears and Ben Affleck’s Unforgettable Kiss

Britney Spears recently shared a fun fact about her past on Instagram, revealing that she once kissed Ben Affleck. In a now-deleted post, she posted an old photo of herself, Affleck, and songwriter Diane Warren. Spears confessed that she had forgotten to mention the kiss in her memoir.

In her Instagram caption, Spears praised Affleck as an amazing actor before dropping the bombshell about their kiss. She admitted that she had honestly forgotten about it until seeing the photo. Spears teased that she wished she could share the full story of what happened that night.

After a few hours, Spears deleted the post without giving a specific reason. Affleck did not comment on the revelation either. Affleck is happily married to Jennifer Lopez, while Spears married dancer Sam Asghari in 2022, although they split up a year later.

Spears’ memoir, “The Woman in Me,” did not include the Affleck incident but did delve into her relationship with Justin Timberlake, making some harsh accusations about their breakup. However, in late January, Spears seemed to extend an olive branch to Timberlake by complimenting his new song, “Selfish,” on Instagram and apologizing for any offense caused by her book.

Timberlake’s response during a New York City concert suggested he wasn’t interested in reconciliation, leading Spears to fire back on Instagram. Spears’ revelation about kissing Affleck added a surprising twist to her past, showing that even celebrities have unexpected stories from their lives.

The Journey Behind the Making of Barbie: Margot Robbie’s Experience

Margot Robbie recently shared her experience before filming Barbie, where she starred and produced alongside Greta Gerwig. Barbie, which became a huge hit last year, brought challenges for Robbie before shooting began. In an interview with the Los Angeles Times, Margot Robbie opened up about facing an “actor crisis” as filming approached.

She revealed visiting Greta Gerwig’s house and having a meltdown over the pressure of getting the movie started. Robbie expressed feeling overwhelmed, saying, “I’d spent years trying to get this movie going. And suddenly we’re going to shoot the thing. I was like, ‘Oh my God, I dunno how to do this.’ It happens before every single movie I’ve ever done.”

Greta Gerwig also recalled the moment when Robbie had doubts about taking on the role, describing it as an “actor crisis.” She shared, “I have a distinct memory of Margot coming over to my house before we started shooting and having a bit of an actor crisis: ‘How am I doing this?’ It’s the actor equivalent of facing a blank page.”

To solve the mystery, she ventures into the “real world” with Ryan Gosling’s Ken, exploring new experiences and challenges.

Brad Pitt and Quentin Tarantino Reunite for ‘The Movie Critic

Brad Pitt and Quentin Tarantino are teaming up once again for Tarantino’s final film, “The Movie Critic,” set in 1977 Los Angeles. This marks their fourth collaboration, following their work together on “True Romance” in 1993, “Inglourious Basterds” in 2009, and “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” in 2019, which earned Pitt his first Oscar for best-supporting actor. Tarantino has praised Pitt as “one of the last remaining big-screen movie stars”.

Additionally, Pitt will star in another F1 movie with Javier Bardem and Damson Idris, and he will share the screen with George Clooney in the Apple thriller “Wolfs.” He has also recently appeared in titles like the action thriller “Bullet Train” and the showbiz drama “Babylon.”

Tarantino has expressed his desire for the lead role in “The Movie Critic” to be played by someone around 35 years old, describing the character as a very good critic who is cynical but humorous. He compared the character’s reviews to a mix of early Howard Stern and Travis Bickle. Filming for “The Movie Critic” is expected to begin either at the end of this year or in early 2025.
