[Blind Gossip] Which two celebrities carefully avoided each other during the 2013 Oscar Nominees Luncheon and Class Photo? The two men have worked together, and everyone assumes that they are friends. However, one of the men had a brief affair with the other man’s Significant Other. The two got into a fight about it (no punches were thrown, although there was some shoving and a lot of yelling and name-calling), and have avoided each other ever since.
Here is a link to a full-size, clickable photo of the entire group.


Complete guesses… Ben affleck and joaquin phoenix…or tommy lee jones and robert de niro?
ben affleck and bradley cooper?
not Clooney and David O Russel!
Tommy Lee Jones and Robert De Niro ?
Tommy Lee Jones and Robert De Niro ? they just worked together
Wow, Ace actual photos now?! You are getting brave..love it! But, again Im lost. The two who stood out were Ben Affleck and Steven Spielberg? Unless Significant Other refers to a MALE?
I was thinking the same think about the use of the term “Significant Other”.
Easy. Bradley Cooper and Ben Affleck.
Ben Affleck had an affair with Cooper’s former partner, Victor Gables, who was starring in Alias at the time with Affleck’s wife, Jennifer Garner.
Do you mean Victor Garber? That can’t be, since Garber’s partner for the past 14 years has been Rainer Andreesen, who frankly, makes Bradley Cooper, yummy as he is, look like chopped liver…..
I think you mean Victor Garber.
what do you smoke? LOL
Gay man’s wishful-weed. lol
Seriously though, Affleck is a dog & an alcoholic so I wouldn’t be surprised if he was sniffing around another man’s girl.
Think tht was Vicotr Garber, though have not heard of the affair. Garber has been in a very long-term relationship.
Wow, I love it. Other guesses think Coop smooched Jen, but that’s just not right. It makes much more sense Cheat Dog Ben coveted a Coop girl. No punches were thrown because Coop didn’t love his beard, but he didn’t love being disrespected either. Team Stoli!
Wait, what??!!! LOL! I read “VictorIA Gables” (should be Victor Garber). Too Funny! Ok, I STILL think that it’s Ben & Bradley, but that Ben borrowed a Beard, not a Boy. Still <3 Stoli!
Ben Affleck and Bradley Cooper.
Acted together in ‘He’s Just Not that into You’
it’s probably why they spend so many time together during the award shows (according to many pics)
Denzel Washington & Robert De Niro
Tommy Lee Jones and Robert DeNiro!
Denzel and DeNiro
Joaquin Phoenix & Tim Burton?
Joaquin Phoenix & Phillip Seymour Hoffman?
Joaquin Phoenix & Daniel Day Lewis?
Ben Affleck & Stephen Speilberg?
Robert DeNiro & Denzel Washington?
Ben and George.
Affleck and B. Coop?
bradley cooper and ben affleck are the obvious choice, but i’ve read blinds that bcoop is gay and that jennifer garner is very committed to ben (and he is the cheat). So, i’m not sure.
Ben Affleck & Bradley Cooper? Cooper and Garner worked together on Alias. But he was on Today on the day of nominations saying Affleck was snubbed, so I don’t see it being about them.
Affleck has also worked with Tommy Lee Jones, who is in an upcoming movie with De Niro.
Ben Affleck and…
Hugh Jackman & Bradley Cooper.
not worked together
Randomly guessing Ben Affleck and Bradley Cooper.
Affleck and Clooney? I got nothing.
But that little girl is the cutest. Best looking of the bunch!!
Agreed about the little girl!
I can’t believe how much Daniel Day Lewis looks like an Oscar statue in that picture.
where is he in that photo, i looked twice and couldn’t find him.
I couldn’t find him either. But I did notice how much Hugh Jackman looks like a bearded Oscar. Pun intended.
ben affleck and someone
Hugh Jackman and whomever he’s looking at.lol
LMAO…YES. Exactly what I was thinking!
Good guess.
Some other gay nominee who was free when Jackman was busy being *cough*”straight”*cough*, messed around with Palermo.
So.. This is my first time posting so I’m guessing it has something to do with either Bradley or Ben Affleck.
Ben Affleck and…?
Didnt Ben Affleck’s wife Jennifer Garner work with Bradley Cooper on Alias?
Bradley Cooper and Ben Affleck-JLo
i like this guess
This is tougher than I thought. I want to guess Bradley Cooper and Ben Affleck because they worked together in He’s Just Not That into You, and Cooper worked with Jennifer Garner on Alias. But there’s pictures of Brad and Ben laughing it up and hugging at a the Critic’s Choice Awards just a month ago. Sooo, I’m stumped.
Actors: Ben Affleck and Bradley Cooper
Significant Other: Jennifer Garner
BC and JG worked together and dated back when Alias was on television. BA and BC were in “He’s Just Not That Into You” together.
Leo Dicaprio and every other actor he’s lost a oscar win to.
he was not there (he’ not nod)
I’m guessing Tim Burton and Steven Spielberg…. only because I spent waaaay too much time staring / clicking / zooming on this picture while trying to piece clues together and it was the only thing I could come up with.
Steven Spielberg & Jeffrey Katzenberg .
Ben and Brad! Awww, everybody beat me to it. LOL
I’d guess Affleck and Cooper (who were also in Changing Lanes together in addition to He’s Just Not that Into You), and considering the frequent BIs suggesting Cooper’s gay, I’ll guess that Affleck had a fling with one of the women (“Significant Other”) Cooper had a “relationship” with and Cooper (also rumored to have a pretty bad temper) got mad that Affleck was intruding on his set-up relationship, not that he had a romantic rival.
Off the top of my head, Cooper’s been with Zoe Saldana, Jennifer Esposito, and Renee Zellweger for what it’s worth…
That’s like a Where’s Waldo picture.
I have no idea…but I really hope the man (wearing glasses) standing next to Jessica Chastain is involved. He’s awesome.
I want to say that the fight and throw a punch are references to David O. Russell who directed the Fighter and is nommed for Silver Linings Playbook. My thought was Affleck, too, but back when he was dating Gwyneth, who was in Russell’s I Heart Huckabees, but I don’t really know of anything Russell and Affleck have done together or the timing of the affair. It’s all I’ve got.
Damn, poor Jen Lawrence was shoved WAY in the back row, huh?
This sounds interesting
it can’t be Bradley and Ben. They are working together on an upcoming film. Plus, they were all hugging and laughing at one of the awards. AND Bradley was on Kimmel recently and said something about Ben. I really think they’re good.
How about Bradley Cooper and George Clooney? Considering George wasn’t too happy about BRadley getting the SMA cover.
Robert De Niro and Bill Murray
Well it cant be Ben and Joaquin, as technically they are family….Hugh Jackman is just a sweetheart, so I can’t see that…so, in other words, I dunno. I like the David O Russell thing.
Hugh Jackman and Bradley Cooper SO being Ryan Seacrest.
I have no idea on who the blind is about, but I can’t help but mention how ecstatic Ben Affleck looks in that photo.. *Sarcasm*
Since this refers to two male celebrities I will say:
Ben Affleck is angry. Harvey Weinstein slept with Gwyneth Paltrow back in the day when Ben was dating her. Affleck/Weinstein
Nah. Ben produced a crap movie in an HBO competition for new filmakers on Harvey’s tab. Ben was already with JLo so he couldn’t have been too mad at Harvey.
By FAR!!! What a doll…..
Wild guess… Hugh Jackman and Bradley Cooper. I’m thinking that Hugh slept with Victor Garber at some point in time while him and Bradley were hooking up… lol.
Damn. Hugh and Bradley haven’t acted together. Oh well.
I zoomed and looked at everyone and never found Affleck. But how awesome does Sally Field look? And the guy in the front row, far right, is doing that thing with his fingers “Look Here”, usually near their nether regions. Kids do that, always boys! Anyway, this pic made me very sad. It reminded me of all the group photos that the photog never took at my only daughters wedding. Not one. ALWAYSake sure the photog knows you want everybody in and all groups photo’s taken at a wedding and important event. You can never go back. So do it right the 1st time. It’s depressing because we know all of those people and family will never be together all at once again.
That really all I got from this photo. Sorry
Bloody hell, this is difficult.
George Clooney hates David O’Russell, but I’m sure this guess is about Ben Affleck. Maybe George stealing Matt Damon away from Ben.
David O. Russell
George Clooney
Jen Garner was in a short lived TV series called “Significant Others” So my bets on Ben
I’m just throwing this out there, but Robert De Niro had a fling with Steven Spielberg’s wife maybe? The wording says to celebrities but not necessarily two actors
