Over the past two weeks, there’s been a good deal of speculation about Ben Affleck’s sobriety . To bring you up to speed, Affleck checked into rehab back in March to seek treatment for an alcohol addiction he’d been battling on and off for over a decade. Over the summer, however, Ben appeared to relapse and was spotted drinking with girlfriend Lindsay Shookus on multiple occasions. Now, sources say Affleck is in outpatient therapy for further treatment, and is once again intent on staying sober. Shookus is a producer for Saturday Night Live, and sources close to the couple tell People magazine that Ben was on hand at 30 Rockefeller Center to support Lindsay over the weekend. Witnesses note, however, that the Oscar winner was not on hand for the weekly after-party, likely as a result of his efforts to abstain from drinking. So our congratulations go out to Ben for two reasons today: Not only does he appear to be recommitted to his own sobriety, he also his position of power to condemn the repugnant actions of disgraced mogul Harvey Weinstein. As you’ve no doubt heard, Weinstein stands accused of sexually assaulting numerous women over the course of the past thirty years. Weinstein was instrumental in the production and distribution of Good Will Hunting , the film that made household names of Affleck and friend Matt Damon. But despite his longstanding ties to Weinstein, Affleck castigated the disgraced 64-year-old in a scathing social media post: “I am saddened and angry that a man who I worked with used his position of power to intimidate, sexually harass and manipulate many women over decades,” Affleck wrote. “The additional allegations of assault that I read this morning made me sick. This is completely unacceptable, and I find myself asking what I can do to make sure this doesn’t happen to others,” the actor continued. It’s been rumored that Affleck’s statement was a response to a tweet from one of Weinstein’s alleged victims, actress Rose McGowan, who urged Ben and his brother Casey to speak out against their friend and former mentor. We may never know for certain if McGowan played a role in convincing Ben to speak out, but the important thing is that Affleck took a stand against Weinstein’s vile behavior. It’s been a rough year for Ben, what with a high-profile divorce, public struggle with addiction, and rumors of career difficulties. But he certainly seems focused on ending 2017 on a high note, and for that, we applaud him. View Slideshow: 25 Celebrities Who Have Been to Rehab
A fter Dove provoked backlash with a 3-minute Facebook video for its body wash that showed a Black woman removing her brown T-shirt to reveal a clean White woman in an ivory T-shirt, some social media users have called for a boycott of the brand. RELATED: Dove Apologizes After Denigrating Black Women In Insensitive Ad The calls for a boycott came even after Dove’s parent company, Unilever, apologized for the ad, saying they “missed the mark in representing women of color thoughtfully. We deeply regret the offense it caused.” But is an apology enough, especially after the brand has been accused of displaying racial insensitivity in the past ? In 2011, an advertisement showed Dove body wash that turned Black women into Latino women and then White women. Since Dove has been accused of racist advertising before, is it time to apply pressure to Unilever? The Anglo-Dutch consumer goods company has scores of popular brands under its purview, including almost all the lotions, and, even Vaseline. Yes, some of us use Vaseline as lotion.

Once again, Jenelle Evans is threatening to quit MTV’s Teen Mom 2, claiming producers are causing major damage to her life and marriage. In response to her portrayal on Monday’s episode, the Carolina Hurricane said she is “not healthy anymore” and put the network on blast. If you watch Teen Mom 2 online , you saw an episode last night that focused heavily on marital problems between Jenelle and David Eason. The 25-year-old did not take kindly to it. Slamming producers in an Instagram post early Tuesday, she said the way her marriage was portrayed by producers is just “uncalled for.” “Yes, me and David have our ups and downs but yesterday’s episode was uncalled for,” she captioned the not-at-all-staged pic above. “Because David didn’t feel like explaining another argument or drama on camera,” Jenelle said, MTV distorted it terribly. “They make it look as if David is hiding some weird ass shit from the public as if he was hurting me in some way?” Evans continued railing against last night’s Teen Mom 2 : “I have decided after this season I’m probably calling it quits for filming this show.” “I told [my Teen Mom producer] Morgan it’s getting to out of hand and it’s not healthy for us anymore, just harming us mentally.” “They treat all of us as if we are in a freak show and in cages. WE aren’t human beings to @mtv what-so-ever.” “The first screenshot of the custody episode someone posted photoshopping a hand mark on my arm.” “The other screenshots are pictures I’ve taken myself from the same episode… and there aren’t any hand marks. “Once they treat me with respect I’ll be back, if they don’t I’ll be happy with the life I’ve got. I told them this last night. #MarriedLife #MIA” Cameras followed the newlyweds last night as they planned a photoshoot for the Save the Date cards for their forthcoming wedding. At one point, Eason appeared to kick the film crew out of the house, though he acted like everything was fine the next day. It was not fine, however, as Jenelle saw it. She continued with a second rant later: “MTV has done a great job this time. I watched last nights episode at 2 p.m. yesterday afternoon and have been very upset ever since.” Though her Instagram is active, she said, “I deactivated my accounts mainly because I don’t want to even begin to read the comments.” “Here are texts of me explaining that subtitling my son when he has speech therapy isn’t right at all,” she adds, with this screen shot: “MTV feels the need to keep it in their story and out the subtitle in ‘feed me,'” she laments, noting “I’ve blocked all my producers numbers.” “I will not stand for the negative shit anymore. I’ll be off social media for a while to be focusing on solely my family. @mtv” Jenelle’s parting shot to the producers? “You guys are making my marriage look like it’s one big f–king joke so thanks.” In Evans’ defense, she is not the only member of the cast to complain about editing, which certainly happens on any show. Producers have a vested interest in a “storyline” fans want to watch, and often times tension beats calm domestic bliss. On the flip side … come on Jenelle. View Slideshow: Jenelle Evans: Pregnant With Fourth Child?! To say she’s had a tumultuous life largely of her own making would be an understatement, and her relationship with David is no exception. Why would we possibly think this tension with David is manufactured, and moreover, why would she care what Teen Mom 2 fans think? If you’re a fan of Jenelle, you’ve come to accept the bad with the good a long, long time ago, and support her through thick and thin. Sure, you might hope reports of a fourth pregnancy (above) are false, and question her decisions, but no one hasn’t formed an opinion. It is what it is. Why hide behind editing like you’re protecting some pristine, otherwise immaculate reputation MTV is intent on ruining? Agree? Disagree? Discuss below.
