J. LO & THE 50 DOZEN ROSES

Elsewhere, you read what other publications have to say about Ben & Jen.
Here you find out wassup, first hand.
After Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez took over the penthouse in the new Phoenix (1600 Arch), to greet her hunk, star-struck J.Lo arranged to have the petals of 50 dozen roses scattered around the lavish love nest.
Do you think that made an impression? (Maybe not as much as the sports car she reportedly gave him.)
Since J.Lo is partial to white, I was wondering if the 50 dozen roses were white roses, but I couldn’t nail that down.
While it’s an enormously romantic gesture I was wondering – I’m a guy, remember – who had to sweep that mess up?
US Weekly reported the penthouse love nest rents for $17,000 a month. The love birds have two penthouse suites, and I hear 80 Large is more like it (including rose-petal removal?)
Speaking of Gentle Ben, after the Eagles game, he and some “Jersey Girl” film crew guys spent about three hours reportedly downing beers at Downey’s (Front & South). As usual, Affleck was laid back and friendly. The crew is in there often.
Also drinking at Downey’s, apparently unaware of Gentle Ben, were several Eagles regulars – QB A.J. Feeley, kicker David Akers, tackle Jon Runyan, defensive tackle Brandon Whiting, and guard Doug Brzezinski. They enjoyed Miller Lite and Irish coffee, and were friendly with the crowd.
