Ben Affleck Addresses Memes, Says Unhappy-Looking Resting Face is Misconception.

During his recent appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” to promote his new movie “Air,” Ben Affleck addressed the widespread belief that he often looks unhappy at events, insisting that it’s just his “unhappy-looking resting face.” The actor and director, whose facial expressions have become the subject of countless memes, pointed out that it’s a common misconception that he isn’t enjoying himself. In fact, Affleck demonstrated to the audience what his content and amused faces look like, but also acknowledged that he can look like he’s having the worst day of his life when his face is at rest.

While discussing his appearance at this year’s Grammy Awards with Jennifer Lopez, which sparked the latest iteration of “Sad Affleck” memes on Twitter, Affleck revealed that he had seen the online reaction. He also cleared up confusion around a tense-looking exchange between him and Lopez during the awards ceremony, explaining that it was a husband-and-wife thing. When host Trevor Noah walked up to their table for an on-air segment, Affleck had planned to slide away from Lopez, but she warned him not to leave her.

Although Affleck’s public appearances have led to plenty of speculation and gossip, it’s important to remember that everyone has their own unique expressions and mannerisms. It’s not fair or ethical to judge someone based solely on their facial expressions, and we should strive to prioritize respectful and empathetic communication with others.
