This Is Why Ben Affleck Was Working At A Dunkin’ Drive Thru

Author Wendy Rush

People were kind of freaking out on social media yesterday when pictures of Ben Affleck working a drive thru popped up. The famous actor was shown with his head out of the drive-thru window of a Dunkin Donuts, complete with Dunkin’ shirt, visor and headset. A picture was posted on Twitter of Affleck greeting a customer in a car. He seemed to be enjoying himself.

Now, it’s no secret the celebrity loves him some Dunkin’. He is often caught on camera drinking (or eating) the stuff. And fans were speculating that maybe he bought a franchise. It would make good financial sense, considering how much money he undoubtedly spends there. Other fans joked about how Affleck must just be the next in a line of actors who had to turn to regular jobs to pay their bills.

But that’s not the case for the Good Will Hunting star. The man has dropped five movies in the last two years, including Deep Water and Clerks 3. Not to mention the latest Justice League movie. The man is doing fine. So what the heck was he doing working at the Dunkin’ Donuts in Medford, Massachusetts? Here’s your answer.

Affleck was shooting a commercial. Reportedly it was a Super Bowl ad. And Jennifer Lopez is allegedly making an appearance in the commercial too. Hollywood Pipeline caught Affleck working it on video, along with some customer reactions, and J-Lo in the drive thru getting her own Dunkin’ visor. One customer raved about how great Affleck was and how he gave the customer his drinks for free.

Another customer called him “crazy” (in a good way) and said he gave her all kinds of stuff including her own order. And that she had to do a double take to make sure it was indeed the star. Whether or not it was a Super Bowl commercial remains to be confirmed. I guess we’ll find out on February 12th!

5 Infamous Film Scenes Actors Will Never Live Down

Jon Favreau has made a name for himself as a major producer/director, but let’s never forget the film that started it all: 1996’s Swingers.

The film is a perfect time capsule of the decade. (We’re looking at you swing revival!) But the hands-down most 90’s moment in the film is Favreau’s answering machine scene, which is as cringe-inducing as it is poetic and a scene Favreau will never live down.

Naturally, a scene like this makes us think of other notorious film scenes. In honor of Favreau’s birthday (October 19), enjoy these five infamous film scenes actors will never live down. (WARNING: Very NSFW content ahead!)

  • Jon Favreau - 'Swingers' - Answering Machine Scene

    If a scene like this was filmed today, it would be of a text exchange gone bad. It would still be incredibly cringe, but it wouldn’t hold a candle to the epic downward spiral Favreau’s character takes us on in a mere two minutes.

  • Jeff Daniels - 'Dumb & Dumber' - Bathroom Scene

    Jeff Daniels is a fantastic, Emmy Award-winning dramatic actor. However, his comedic chops in this terrifying bathroom scene are truly remarkable.

  • Cameron Diaz - 'There's Something About Mary' - Hair Gel Scene

    Cameron Diaz broke out in the ’90s in a big way thanks to films like The Mask and My Best Friend’s Wedding. However, it’s hard to forget her turn as the titular Mary in There’s Something About Mary and the incredibly gross “hair gel” scene. (Spoiler: It’s not really “hair gel.”)

  • Steve Carell - 'The 40-Year-Old Virgin' - Chest Waxing Scene

    Steve Carell’s scream delivery turned “Kelly Clarkson” into a swear. That’s real acting!

  • Jason Biggs - 'American Pie' - Warm Apple Pie Scene

    Well…there’s no delicate way to describe this infamous scene. Jason Biggs has sex with an apple pie. There’s no getting around that.It makes you wonder how many pies since the release of <em>American Pie </em>had a similar fate.
