Twitter Is Convinced Jeopardy! Predicted Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck's Reunion
- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
Weeks before Bennifer 2.0 was even a possibility, the producers at Jeopardy! seemingly manifested Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck's reunion into reality — at least as far as the internet is concerned.
On Friday night's episode — which was filmed in advance of airing — the first clue of the show read, "As a couple they were jointly known as 'Bennifer.'" The answer: J.Lo and Ben Affleck. Mystified by how the show could have possibly predicted the timeliness of the clue, people shared their theories on Twitter.
The collective conclusion? The Jeopardy! writers can see into the future.
Bennifer was just an answer on #jeopardy and I am FREAKING out HOW DID THE PRODUCERS KNOW THIS WOULD HAPPEN

“As a couple, they were jointly known as ‘Bennifer’” IS #JEOPARDY MISS CLEO AND/OR TROLLING US ALL?! Also can’t believe the guy got it wrong. Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck. Iconic couple.

I’m pretty sure @Jeopardy called the reunion of @BenAffleck and @JLo - they were the answer of the “Bennifer” clue that aired tonight despite being filmed WEEKS AGO prior to their little romantic getaway. What a power this show has.

What's more is that during Double Jeopardy, there was an entire category dedicated to the state of Montana, where J.Lo and Ben went on a reported romantic getaway together. And while the friendly exes have yet to confirm whether or not they're officially a couple again, they've allegedly been talking "every day" since the trip.

"[Jennifer] is in touch with Ben every day," a source told People. "They are making plans to see each other. Jennifer is still very excited about how things are going with Ben."
The vacation was reportedly Affleck's idea, and the two "had a great time."
