Triple Trouble

[Blind Gossip] Let’s talk about three famous actors… who all have triple trouble!

Actor A is a movie star. We have told you before that his three biggest vices seem to be interconnected.

If Actor A partook of even one vice, it was like the floodgates would open and he would suddenly find himself in trouble on multiple fronts. The addictions would take over every aspect of his life.

Yes, there were other vices too (hello, Las Vegas!), but the three vices of drinking and drugs and s*x addiction were the ones that broke up his marriage and led to multiple stints in rehab.

Actor B is also a movie star.

Perhaps we should say that he was a movie star. Those same three vices we mentioned have pretty much destroyed his career.

Yes, there were other vices, too (hello, barbecued ribs!), but, like Actor A, the drugs, alcohol and s*x addictions are the ones that did him in.

Finally, there is Actor C.

Actor C has done movies and theater, but he really found fame when he was one of the stars of a very popular TV sitcom.

Despite his wealth and fame, even his closest friends were unable to help him as he suffered with addiction.

Actor C has kept a lower profile than A and B, but the few times he has popped up in public, it was obvious that he was not well. This recently played out publicly, much to the embarrassment of the woman in his life.

Where are these three actors now?

Actor A went through rehab several times and is currently sober. A lot of the credit for that goes to his actress ex-wife.

She may have divorced him, but she stays in his life and tries to keep him in line because she remains committed to giving their children a sober and engaged father.

Actor B is currently in rehab. His wife filed for divorce, but even that wasn’t enough to convince him that he had a serious problem.

There was an intervention. He was told that his career is over unless he goes to rehab, so he finally went. He is being treated for drugs, alcohol and s*x addiction.

Actor C needs to go to rehab. His partner just broke up with him.

His addictions were hard enough for her to deal with but she tried to help him because she loves him. Then she found out that the little sh*t had been lying to her all along. She was totally horrified to see that video of him actively trying to hook up with other women. That humiliation was the last straw.

All three of these actors were once very good-looking, had hugely successful careers, and had a partner who loved and cared for them.

It has been sad to see how addiction has changed each of their lives.

We wish all three men well in their quest for sobriety!

      You are right. All three of them can keep sober if the women in your lives now they buy them and give them tough love test.

  2. judylouise says

    I thought C might be Jonathan Rhys Meyers but now I changed my mind. I’m guessing A is Ben Affleck.

    • easternpromise says

      Agree. I dont think any of them have a chance of getting over their addictions. Perry is the only one I feel really sad about. Hammer is a scumbag who has enough money to spend all his time in and out of rehab and pay people to resurrect his career.

  6. northofyou says

    Actor A, Ben Affleck. B, Armie Hammer, who wanted to BBQ someone’s ribs, and C is Matthew Perry. Sad all around.

  10. Midwestgurl says

    A – Ben Affleck
    B – Armie Hammer
    C- Matthew Perry

    A has the best chance because Jen Garner is on top of the situation. The other 2 don’t publicly have someone to do that for them.

  11. afanofopal says

    Ben “Phoenix Rising” Affleck
    Armie “Strong Arm” Hammer
    Matthew “Ew” Perry

  14. grumpy says

    Actor A: Ben Affleck
    Actor B: Armie Hammer
    Actor C: Mathew Perry

    [Optional] Which Actor has the best chance of staying sober? None
    Why? They are trying to get sober for the wrong reasons and/ or they surround themselves with yes people

  15. Pinkieswear says

    A is Ben Affleck
    B is Armie Hammer
    C is…Meagan Markle? (She is my go-to guess, since she tries to make everything about her. )

  16. marlin ruj says

    Ben Affleck, Armie Hammer, Matthew Perry. No idea who has best chance of staying sober. Maybe Affleck because of his kids, Garner, and Lopez. It never seems to last with any of these three.

  17. YouKnowWhoo says

    Affleck
    ?
    Perry

    Affleck because Jen stays in his life providing stable support + kids that he loves

  19. kvetro60 says

    A-Ben Affleck
    B-Arne Hammer
    C-Matthew Perry

    I think all three of them are profoundly damaged men none of whom will stay sober for life. I suspect Perry will OD one day

  23. lila8245 says

    Ben Affleck is A, Armie Hammer is B, C is Matthew Perry.

    Perry was sober for quite awhile even though he’s had the longest addiction, so who knows? Affleck’s back with J-Lo, and will probably get caught up in her jet set lifestyle and be back in rehab. Jennifer Garner was probably the best person for him, since she’s not fame hungry. Hammer’s on another level than the other two… he needs more than rehab.

  26. BettyLou says

    A Ben affleck – he’s the only one who still has a career
    b armen whatever – he’s done
    C Charlie sheen – too much of a trainwreck

  29. righto says

    A for Affleck, C for Chandler (whatever his name is, I find Friends waaay overrated). Don’t know who B is but I’ve got to say: I have sympathy for people with addictions, sometimes they can’t help themselves and I always hope they find the strength to fight it. What I have zero sympathy for is lying for those closest to you. I think that most loving partners would help a person recover as long as they are not hurt by actions taken consciously against them

  34. kateq says

    A Ben Affleck
    B Armie Hammer
    C Matt Le Blanc

    Best chance? Ben Affleck purely because of Jen Garner

  36. linnovak says

    A. Ben Affleck
    B. Armie Hammer
    C. Matthew Perry

    Optional – Ben Affleck only because of Jennifer Garner

  37. droopyorchid says

    A: Ben Affleck
    B: Armie Hamer
    C: Matthew Perry

    Armie has the best shot at keeping his addictions in check I think, he seems more capable of control and less emotional than the other two.

  40. Thecivilians says

    Ben Affleck
    Armie Hammer
    Matthew Perry

    Addiction is hard but Ben might be able to keep it together with Jen powerhousing support. Armie seems too committed to his obsessions.

  43. EmilyLou says

    Actor A is Ben Affleck
    Actor B is Armie Hammer
    Actor C is Matthew Perry

    I always and forever will root for Matthew. I’m hoping he gets clean and stays clean. He has a life worth living. I think he just needs to love himself and really be loved by someone. IDK, just hope he’s not an * like all the rest.

  44. spoofbyrd says

    Well Ben Affleck or is he now Bennifer again is A . The B and C are confusing so I will just throw out some names . Armie Hammer , Chris Pratt, and Vince Vaughn

  45. Texas Gal says

    Actor A: Ben Affleck
    Actor B: Armie Hammer, those ribs look good!
    Actor C: Matthew Perry

    There’s no half way with addiction. You’ve got to be fully committed, for life. Sadly I don’t think any of these three will be successful but, Matthew has the best chance since he has really been exposed as to the severity of his addiction.

  49. aaaLiam says

    A. Affleck
    B. Armie Hammer
    C. Not sure, I want to say Matthew Perry but know nothing about his love life.

  50. Renee2 says

    A is Ben Affleck.
    C is Matthew Perry.
    B is ??? Armie Hammer ?

    I felt sad for Perry until the trolling online for other women thing. My pity evaporated immediately.

    None will ever completely overcome their addictions.

  52. dinamarieburnett says

    A. Ben A and Jennifer G 2. ? 3. Matthew from Friends who played Chandler

  54. ZaaZaa says

    Affleck
    Hammer
    Perry
    Hammer has the best chance of rebounding.
    Affleck is a joke hooking up w/ex THIRSTY flame J/Lo.
    Sad to say, Perry looks beat up. He has lost his good looks.

  55. sparrowraven says

    I don’t know the other two but actor a is ben Affleck and I think he had a good shot at staying sober with his kids and Jennifer garner in his life. Now jlo is involved (pr relationship but still!) I think it opens him up to a slippery slope. I hope he can sort himself out, I always liked him and Jennifer garner together and their family.

  59. blubelle says

    A: Ben Affleck

    B: Armie Hammer

    C: Matthew Perry

    Really rooting for Matthew Perry to get/stay sober. Affleck probably has the best chance because he seems to have good support but who knows? Don’t know or care to know about the third guy.

  62. reereefnq says

    Ben Affleck
    Armie hammer
    Matthew perry
    I think ben has the best chance due to Jennifer garner & their kids

  63. aaaPanda says

    A Ben Affleck
    B Armies Hammer
    C Matthew Perry

    Optional: Ben Affleck – he has a better support network (his ex wife for one) and people he still seems to care about. As long as he wants his children to respect him he will be OK ish. There may be relapses, but overall his trajectory should be in the right direction.

    The other two have nothing to lose because they do not seem to care what their family think of them. When you have nothing to lose you tend to get irretrievably lost

  68. taracard says

    A- Ben Affleck
    B- John Mulaney
    C- Matthew Perry

    And honestly, I’m going to have to go with Ben. He has a kick * support person in his life.

  70. buzzzzz says

    Ben Affleck, Armie Hammer and Matthew Perry.

    I’m hopeful for all of them, but especially Ben and Armie as they are fathers. I hope Armie can break the cycle of chaos in his family.

  71. isleparadise says

    a. Ben Affleck
    b. Armie Hammer
    c. Matthew Perry

    Ben Affleck has a better chance because of Jennifer Garner

  72. Rapunzel says

    Actor A: Ben Affleck (blegh)
    Actor B: Armie Hammer (BLEGH!!)
    Actor C: Matthew Perry (I like him, but he’s been slurring his words for like five years now. That story they cooked up about an emergency dental procedure before the “Friends” reunion was such a blatant lie)

  75. itsmescano says

    A: Affleck
    B: Armie Hammer
    C: Matthew Perry

    I think Ben – seems to have a better support system and Jen will always help him, for her kids’ sake. She’s a class act.

  76. Granny26 says

    A. Ben Affleck
    B. Armie Hammer
    C. Matthew Perry ( I really, really want to
    be wrong on this one!)
    Ben has the best chance to succeed because he loves his kids and luckily for him, Jennifer Garner is one tough mother.

  77. CatInTheHat says

    Ben Affleck
    Armie Hammer
    Matthew Perry

    Ben may be able to stay sober if he settles down again. Hopefully not with JLo though…lol

  79. Jem1Jem1 says

    A Ben Affleck

    B Arme Hammer

    C Matthew Perry

    I think Ben Affleck has the best chance because he’s got the children and Jen Garner as influences.

  81. ayayayayayayay says

    Ben Affleck/Armie Hammer/Matthew Perry
    Ben Affleck because he has young children.

  82. Scarlet Peaches says

    Actor A) Ben Affleck
    Actor B) Armie Hammer
    Actor C) Matthew Perry

    I feel bad for Matty, but the other two boneheads are irreparable

  89. AprilsFool says

    Ben Affleck, Armie Hammer, and Matthew Perry. Ben has the best chance of getting through due to having a family and caring ex-wife.

  91. hannahhkate says

    Ben Affleck, Armie Hammer, and Matthew Perry.

    I don’t give any of them a shot at staying sober. They all seem like lost causes.

  93. SilverLining says

    Ben Affleck/Armie Hammer/Matthew Perry

    (Optional: I want to say Ben Affleck but I just feel he always on the brink of falling off the bandwagon no matter how much of a support system he has. He also seems to have the biggest ‘addiction’ when it comes to being ‘fame thirsty.’ I don’t know what Matthew Perry’s support system is (I know his stepfather is Keith Morrison of Dateline but don’t know if they have a ‘healthy’ relationship; I’d like to think if MP HAS to get better so maybe…

  94. michelex23 says

    A is Ben Affleck
    B is Armie Hammer
    C is Matthew Perry

    Ben is with Jen so I’m gonna say him…for now.

  95. La Lurker says

    Ben Affleck, Armie Hammer, Matthew Perry. I think Ben has the best chance because Jennifer wants a sober and present father for her children.

    • easternpromise says

      That poor woman is tied to Affleck forever because of their kids and is going to spend the rest of her life trying to keep him alive for them.

  97. Sixtine79 says

    Ben Affleck
    Armie Hammer
    Matthew Perry

    Optional: Ben Affleck. It feels like he’s the most aware of the three of his issues and has the strongest support system.

  98. faceinthecrowd says

    A) Ben Affleck
    B) Armie Hammer
    C) Matthew Perry

    Ben is most likely to be sober. Jennifer Garner staying in his corner even though they aren’t married anymore is a great support for him.

  99. sunshine702 says

    Ben Affleck
    Armie Hammer

    Maybe Bryan Austin Green?

    Well Ben is gambling again. Papped at Wynn last night so looks like he is off the sober train.

  100. emerald2393 says

    Actor A – Ben Affleck
    Actor B – Johnny Depp
    Actor C – Matthew Perry.

  102. amagod121 says

    A is for Affleck
    B is for Barbecuer Armie Hammer
    C is for Chandler Bing aka Matthew Perry

    Right now, I guess Affleck. He’s had experience in being sober and is currently on the wagon. I think Armie’s issues are HUGE and will never be treatable unless he gets major mental health care, long term. And even then, questionable. Matthew Perry might be successful if he could just get sober. It sounds like each actor’s addictions are just plain awful.

  105. justcurious says

    Ben Affleck
    Armie Hammer
    Matthew Perry

    Maybe Perry has the best chance, but idk, they all have long term ingrained habits in addition to the actual addiction, so it’s iffy for any of them imo…

  108. jkrowdy says

    Ben Affleck
    Armie Hammer
    Matthew Perry

    Ben Affleck- seems like he has more steady support system. Plus kids to answer to.

  109. Fireandice01 says

    1. Ben Affleck
    2. The thoroughly disgusting Armie Hammer
    3. Matthew Perry

  110. 4sixx2 says

    Ben Afleck
    Arnie Hammer
    Matthew Perry
    Afleck has the best chance because… Jen Garnee

  113. yankgirl13 says

    A. Ben Affleck
    B. Armie Hammer
    C. Matthew Perry?

    Ben has the best chance I think

  115. FiyahHotFlashy says

    Actor A….Ben Affleck
    Actor B….Don’t know
    Actor C….Cuba Gooding, Jr
    Ben Affleck has a very good chance to staying sober. JLO probably has a plan in action to clean him up and make some of his vices go away.

  116. SmellyJelly says

    Ben Affleck, armie hammer and Matthew perry.

    Prolly Ben.. Jen is amazing. He lost a good one there. (Not jlo jen! Eww)

  117. gailpow says

    Actor A is Ben Affleck, who will stay sober to keep in both Jennifer Garner’s and Jennifer Lopez’s good graces. Actor B is Armie Hammer, who loves his BBQ and Instagram models. Actor C is Matthew Perry, whose fiancee just broke up with him. Ben Affleck has the best chance to stay sober, IMO.

  118. JoshuaTree says

    Ben Affleck, Armie Hammer and Matthew Perry.

    Matthew has the best chance of staying sober as he’s been very committed to it during certain periods of his life. Even opened up his own sober house for other addicts. Ben falls off the wagon with such ease (and still drinks though not to the excesses he did) and Armie’s problems are too deep that a lifetime in treatment couldn’t help him.

  120. the skeptic says

    Actor A: Ben Affleck. DK/DC who the others are (don’t really care abt Affleck, either). Just entering rehab is unimpressive; anybody can do that. Often in my work I saw that users court-ordered to rehab would keep using and end up in the same position. It’s been longtime standing knowledge that one of the best places to get drugs is in rehab. Addiction is a hard thing to overcome, but being able to access resources that non-celebs can’t and failing to launch w/ those doesn’t make you a…

  122. Tinytoon76 says

    Actor A: Ben Affleck
    Actor B: Armie Hammer
    Actor C: Matthew Perry

    Optional: Ben Affleck

  123. AmateurGossipHour says

    Actor A: Ben Affleck
    Actor B: Armie Hammer
    Actor C: Matthew Perry

    I give a lot of credit to Jennifer Garner, no matter Ben goes through she seems to be there ready for when he wants help. I think having her there and wanting to be better himself are the two things that pull him out each time. Hope Armie and Matt can get the help they need.

  125. bondgirl says

    A is Ben Affleck. He has the best chance of staying sober because of Jen’s involvement.
    B is Armie Hammer.
    C is Matthew Perry.

  130. funster says

    Affleck.
    Hammer.
    Perry.
    Probably Ben since he has Jen in his corner and he wants to be in his kids lives.
    Any of them can stay sober if they get humble and work for it.

  132. Michelle says

    Not sure about C but I think

    A Affleck
    B Armie Hammer. I don’t think his career is reparable

  136. antisocialwonder says

    Ben Affleck

    Armie Hammer

    Matthew Perry

    Honestly? Ben. Simply because his ex cares too much about her kids to let him fall that far and Jennifer Lopez is too concerned for her image to allow him much free reign. Armie can burn for all I care. I think he’s legit just an evil, evil man. Matthew breaks my heart. His body is giving out. If he doesn’t get help, he’ll be dead soon.

  138. jonesing says

    A: Ben Afflect
    B: Armie Hammer
    C: Matthew Perry
    Maybe Armie has the best chance. To me he’s the least likable but that’s my guess.

  139. TeacherKat says

    Ben Affleck
    Armies Hammer
    Matthew Perry

    Optional: none. Though if I had to choose I guess Afflek only because of Jen.

  140. Weazle says

    A. Ben Affleck – Jennifer Garner is a saint, he has best chance of sobriety
    B. Armie Hammer – doesn’t want it
    C. Matthew Perry – too far gone

  144. pancakephanny says

    Actor A: Ben Affleck
    Actor B: ?
    Actor C: Matthew Perry (close friends clue)

  145. ivy3499 says

    A: Ben Affleck
    B: Armie Hammer
    C: Matthew Perry

    You guys should have done it: A for Armie, B for Ben and C for Chandler!

  146. wfreshie says

    a) ben afflek B) armie hammer weife filed for divorce and he just went into rehab C) matthew perry

    I don’t know maybe ben cause jennifer his ex seems to help keep him on an even keel

  147. Sweetpea says

    Matthew Perry…Arnie Hammer and Ben Afleck. Addiction destroys everything. Have dealt with all of these in one partner. It’s like watching a slow death.

  148. Sleepyandconfused says

    Affleck/not sure/Matthew Perry

    I hope for Perry. Can’t believe how he’s ruining his talent

  152. Itsmaryk says

    A Affleck
    B Armie Hammer
    C Matthew Perry

    Edge goes to Armie since the others have been fighting it maybe 2 decades longer.

  155. itsjustanothergirl says

    A: Ben Affleck
    B: Armie Hammer
    C: Matthew Perry

    Possibly Ben – both Jennifers (Lopez and Garner) seem invested. (Tho JLo is more about how that reflects her than his health.)

  157. roxy4128 says

    Ben Affleck
    Arnie Hammer
    Matthew Perry

    Matthew Perry – needs a friend or family to step in.

  163. ZZtyme says

    Ben Affleck
    Arnie Hammer
    Matthew Perry

    Maybe Ben Affleck but all thanks are because of Jennifer Gardner.

  166. taracu says

    A: Ben Affleck
    B: Armie Hammer
    C: Matthew Perry

    I’d say Matthew Perry has best chance. No way for Affleck, he’s got pathological addictive behaviour and the fact that once he partakes in one, he’s immediately all in with multiple addictions is very problematic.

  167. Cocktailsanddreams says

    Actor A: Ben Affleck
    Actor B: Armie Hammer
    Actor C: Matthew Perry
    All of them have serious issues. I don’t think any of them can stay sober for long.

  169. Whisper says

    My guess for A is Affleck.
    Not sure who B is.
    C is Mathew Perry.
    Hard to say who’s got the best shot. Garner is invested because of the kids so that may help some whereas Perry’s recent ex may disengage. No kids, only dated a few years. Personally I wouldn’t want to roll the dice at either of my guesses.

  170. iamcarson says

    Ben Affleck
    Armie Hammer
    Matthew Perry

    Trying to make the ABC thing work with Armie, Ben, Chandler but I don’t think the clues fit that order.

  174. mrs_right says

    A: Ben Affleck
    B: Armie Hammer
    C: Matthew Perry

    Probably Ben, he seems to have a healthy support system. Best wishes to all three.

  175. Ms_LaRue says

    Ben Affleck, Armie Hammer and Matthew Perry.

    I think Ben has the best chance of staying sober, he seems to have a better support network. Armie Hammer deserves to lose everything.

  177. mbscott24 says

    A. Ben Affleck
    B. Armie Hammer
    C. Matthew Perry

    I think Affleck has the best shot at staying sober – he has a strong support team from his ex-wife and family.

  178. bertwheeler says

    1. Ben Affleck
    2. Armie Hammer
    3. Matthew Perry. (Any celeb who face times with someone on a dating site is either seriously stupid or subconsciously trying to screw up his personal/professional life)

    Oddly, it could be Affleck.

    • Whisper says

      Except Ben Affleck DMed a video of himself asking a hot young thing to rematch with him on the same dating site Perry used.

  179. JP1225 says

    A – Ben Affleck
    B – Armie Hammer
    C – Matthew Perry

    I think Ben has the best chance of staying sober – especially with the Jennifer’s in his life.

  181. aaaStorm says

    Ben Affleck, Armie Hammer and Matthew Perry

    At this point Affleck might stay sober.

  182. NCSweetPea61 says

    A= Ben Affleck
    B= Armie Hammer
    C= Matthew Perry

    Ben because of Jennifer Garner and their kids. He occasionally slips up but I think he knows Jen will take the kids away if he gets too bad off.

  183. redbus says

    actor a is ben affleck
    actor b is armie hammer
    actor c is matthew perry.

    I believe ben affleck as he has a good support system..

  184. gc02ef says

    A= Ben Affleck
    B= Armie Hammer
    C= Matthew Perry

    Jennifer Garner, I have so much respect for now. She puts her kids first, which is more than can be said for Angelina Jolie.

  185. darnda says

    Ben affleck
    Armie hammer
    Jason segel

    Ben might have a chance now he’s fake dating jlo. I’m sure she won’t want her image tarnished by his bad habits.

    Armie hammer has no chance, he’s certifiable.

    I don’t know about Jason, I hope he can sort himself out, of them all I feel most sorry for him. I don’t know why. He always seems sad.

  187. jonty30 says

    I know actor A is Ben Affleck.
    I know Actor C is likely Matthew Perry

    But I don’t know who Actor B is.

  189. BillyBatts says

    Actor A/B/C:

    Ben Affleck
    Arnie Hammer
    Matthew Perry

    [Optional] Which Actor has the best chance of staying sober? Why?

    Ben Affleck, due to access to kids and having Jennifer Garner in the background.

  191. Monysmom says

    Actor
    A: Ben Affleck
    B: Armie Hammer
    C: Matthew Perry (from Friends)

    [Optional] Which Actor has the best chance of staying sober? Why? I think Ben has the best chance mostly by sheer dint of Jennifer Garner’s efforts
