The Oscar winner reflected on attending his “wife’s work event.”
Ben Affleck didn’t hate everyone dragging him for looking bored at the 2023 Grammys. In a March 16 cover story in The Hollywood Reporter, Affleck finally reacted to the viral “Ben Affleck having a bad time at the Grammys” moment that became a meme during the Feb. 5 awards show. ICYMI, Affleck appeared bored during the Grammys, and viewers joked that he just wanted to grab a cigarette and an iced coffee at Dunkin’. Despite him looking like he was just told Dunkin’ was discontinuing his favorite donut, he told THR that he had a “good time” at the Grammys: “My wife was going, and I thought, ‘Well, there’ll be good music. It might be fun.’ At movie award shows, it’s speeches and, like, sound-mixing webinars. But I thought this would be fun.”
However, when Grammys host Trevor Noah came by to do a bit for the broadcast, Affleck wanted to GTFO.
