AT LAST YEARS WORLD SERIES.



THE TWO ARE QUITE A DEPARTURE FROM THE
HIGH-PROFILE BENNIFER DAYS.



SOT: KATRINA SVISH,"Us Weekly" Style


Editor

Ben and Jen part two are very low
profile - completely opposite of the

first Bennifer monster parading around
the red carpets and being very

ostentacious.



(TRACK)

ON THE HOLLYWOOD WALK OF FAME FANS WERE
ALREADY TALKING ABOUT THE

NEWS...BENNIFER NUMBER TWO TO THE
ORIGINAL.

SEEMS LIKE A GOOD GAL, JUST SEEMS

LIKE A GOOD PERSON.



SOT: ANGELA/FAN

NOT FROM THE BLOCK!




(NATSOT J-LO JENNY FROM THE BLOCK


VIDEO)



(STAND UP)

REPORTS SAY THE ACADEMY AWARD WINNING
ACTOR PROPOSED TO GARNER ON HER

33RD BIRTHDAY WITH A 4 AND HALF CARAT
RING VALUED AT OVER A HALF A

MILLION BUCKS.



(ANGELA)

WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT, HE BOUGHT THAT
HUGE ONE FOR JENNIFER,

HE HAS TO DO SOMETHING FOR THE NEW
JENNIFER.



(TRACK)

WHILE THE RING MAY BE FLASHY...INSIDERS
SAY IT ISNT LIKELY THEIR

NUPTIALS WILL BE.



SOT: KATRINA SVISH



these guys are very low key and I
wouldnt be surprised if everything

they did was under the radar

SEEN TOGETHER WAS ACTUALLY ON

THE BIG SCREEN IN THE MOVIE DAREDEVIL.



"of course, the big attraction, was
Ben...."



(TRACK)
