Perhaps literally just a coincidence just time, but then perhaps not? Minute 1:25 in this video.
Now just what is that song in Ella's latest deer IG story then??? Does Ben sing it round the house often amongst friends?

Something may just be going on here. I missed her story post R3 and out of curiosity checked the Los Angeles highlights. Caught my eye she was at Joshua Tree National Park on May 13th 2021. Guess who was at Joshua Tree on May 11th of the same year? Yup. Benny boy. These two might actually be a thing. Even if it's on again/off again.

Ben is going to be 42 in a few months and has never been married or had children. I still think he pings.

R4 Well, unless the OP is doing it, they both now appear to be playing the untagging game. Someone has been making posts on IG linking them as boyfriend/girlfriend since this past weekend. Yesterday afternoon Ben was untagged from the latest post within an hour (he's slipping and out of practice since The Ho???). And then Ella. . . finally noticed. . . was told. . . was pointedly instructed. . . about the posts and untagged herself from all four posts at once (that again went back days). I mean, does she regularly check her tagged page every few days and get rid of stuff she finds objectionable, or is she being influenced and needing to check it like a hawk is her life now cause that's the cost of having a new friend. Sorry, meant to say a new, paranoid, indignant friend that's too embarrassed to be publicly seen with you. Who can say!

R8 It's definitely a new burner account as the only posts on there are these Benny/Ella ship posts, but no particular indication whether it's trolling or just observing.
Also forgot to mention, this is a second account that's posting these ship pics. The other one either deactivated or changed names (I can't find it anymore) presumably after "getting caught." Lends probability to the 'Ben is untagging himself' line of thinking IMO.

I'd like to see this Ben/Ella ship account. Curiosity killed the white cat lol Also if this is Peyton's cat that was there at the same time as Rob lived with Ben, was the picture of Rob holding the cat taken at Peyton's house or Ella's house? Or are Ella n Peyton living together? And now I wonder about what he said in a recent interview about spontaneously going to get dessert because he likes to make people happy and she wanted dessert. Who is the "she"?

Cuz if it was Peyton's cat and Peyton and Ben broke up but then didnt take her cat with her that doesnt make sense. When this mean it's Rob's cat? Dang it I wish I had that still from the kiss charity video that had been putting his nose up to the cat's nose

R11 R12 Well the cat photo is easy to find by just searching "Ben Barnes white cat" into google images, as it pops right up for me on a german facebook page. (Or his SU2C video is on his IG from Feb 2020 if memory serves) And the room in the background is completely out of focus, but my best guess looking at it is that's nowhere in Ben's house. So if it's the same white cat, it's most likely somewhere else IMO.
But the interview (linked below, last paragraph was it?) you're talking about doesn't say "she." It says some friends and somebody and someone. On the other hand however, one "fun" moment from another S&B2 interview ("Harper's Bazaar Food Diaries - everything ben barnes eats in a day" if interested) shows him mentioning that "someone recently introduced him to macadamia nut milk and it's delicious.." Of course perhaps only a coincidence that macadamia nuts are native to Australia. Just fun facts!

The Joshua Tree timing is just a coincidence then? If not, these 2 have known each other for a while.
I think the background of cat pic looks like the window leading outside with the barrel shape lamp shade he had there at the time when I compare it to pics at the time. He is holding the cat in a beige cat bed and bringing the bed close to him. The time spent on this makes me feel dumb a bit.
Maybe cat was Robs after all and Ella or Peyton adopted when he moved out. I'm haunted by why Ben would include a pic of himself wearing a cat fur covered black merch sweatshirt to be in a Bandwear email blast. Something about this bothers me but don't know why. Maybe cuz ima newer fan and he confuses me.
And his sniffing, nose touching, swallowing what seems like nose drainage is odd. Like is it Coke use or allergies and why not take meds if your gonna do an intvw seen by so many. Chewing gum.on the premier of show? Drunk like dancing with fly half down with live Scary Pockets. It's like he's a mess lately

R17 The white cat is a mystery we probably won’t ever solve!
Now I confess I didn’t pay close attention to any of his recent music show vids but I’m concerned I missed the ‘fly half down’ incident. Was that during his recent guest appearance on SP show? This I need to see!

R18 Yeah it looked like he had gone to the toilet and then rushed on stage lol. Or his pants were ill fitting and it strained the zipper. I couldd be seeing the silver flash of something else but looks zipper half down to me! He seemed off balance too. I know he dances a bit funky like a bird flapping wings sometimes but looked to me like he was stumbling. And he was more off key, didn't know the lyrics. Apparently had them written on his hand. Why perform to the biggest crowd so far as a guest and with a song you kinda dont know. But I'm a bit harsh perhaps

R19 Ah ok…. for posterity, I rewatched several times (with sound muted!) and I do believe it’s a metal button fly. If you look at the light reflection on the zip of his jacket it’s linear, however there are two dots of light visible in the fly area. You can also catch a glimpse of a button in one of the zoomed-in vids. And I think that’s just Ben’s awkward dance moves? - with extra adrenaline mixed in cos he’s a “Special Guest”. Boy living the dream!
Get back to acting please, Mr Barnes.

Don't worry R20, our woke king is going back to BLM activism instead. I guess either Viola Davis feels safe enough to repost, or he felt safe enough in joining in with the *countless* number of other celebrities sharing this story (days later of course, Benny doesn't follow the news on his own. Waaaayyyyyyy too much negativity that crushes his "life is full of nothing but sunshine and happiness" vibe. He only gets "news" from his fellow celebrities after the fact. Because he's a fucking CHILD.)
(Is it just coincidence that Ben and The Ho both followed Viola at relatively the same time? We all know what bipoc allies they are after all, gotta keep up appearances.. *rolls eyes*)

If anyone needs some weird ass "entertainment" for this evening. . . . After that first time Ella untagged herself from all the Couple Posts at once (mentioned in the last thread), she hasn't done any more untagging again even though Ben has continued it (with one exception he likely didn't see as it was further down his page). But just now, a new post went up tagging them both. Ben found it and untagged himself VERY quickly. Then, soon after, Ella *apparently* hid that post from her tagged page, though she didn't actually untag herself (why the change???). And she also hid the previous post from yesterday, again not actually untagging. But, she neither hid, nor untagged the post before that. But then, that post she actually left up is the same one Ben (accidentally???) left himself tagged on.
So did poor Ella get a demand from an embarrassed and ashamed Benny to hide herself from his life but is just ridiculously confused on how to proceed? Does she think she's correctly following Ben's demands by taking down all the posts but the one he left up? There's absolutely nothing special about that post, so is she just not smart enough to figure out he left it up by mistake? This is just kinda hilarious to watch!

It isn't the most flattering. Especially since he is so thin it's funny to take a picture that makes him look wide somehow. I think its edited somehow. On the right his arm looks kind of warped wavy by the bicep. The left looks like a clone tool to extend wall to cover the glassdoor view. And there's a few digitally glitchy spots. Like his friend takes professional photos. Why not just have someone do it for him. Like the basketball su2cancer one.

But apparently there are still some professionals out there that know what they're doing. And he's always been good at tongue-in-cheek or self deprecating comedy. Why the hell they didn't start with that option originally I will never understand. Man's just paying the bills at this point. And by paying bills I unfortunately mean self funding his continuing life long music nightmare. Ugh.

R47 Well immediately after S&B finished he started The Critic. Then there was debate on how long that took, as he appeared to remain in London for *two* months, but there was a cast report that filming took only one month. After "London" his family apparently came to stay with him in LA (Disneyland trip), then after that was the hilariously INFAMOUS speed dial booty call with The Ho in NYC leading up to his birthday.
So did he actually sneak in BM filming in that second month in London (he spent an inordinate amount of time in London that autumn, could have needed reshoots, though beard vs. no beard, or ADR), or was it after his birthday in LA and that was why he didn't spend his actual birthday with his girlfriend. Or other. . . .

R54 Just thinking more about the no Twitter link on this new Komi thing he’s set up. Not only has he not linked, but does he truly think that his bio warning “this is the only account that represents me” (in caps!) is going to deter the scammers?
No chance.
He purports to be concerned about fraudulent accounts and he can’t even shell out a few dollars a month to get his blue tick back? Yes, Musk is a complete money grubbing prick but even so.
It would at least help if he was verified again.
by Anonymous | reply 60 | May 9, 2023 7:53 PM |
R60 Honestly, the blue checks literally mean nothing now. Because now literally anyone, and more than one person, can pay to be verified as anyone they want to be. There's no longer a limit to how many verified Ben Barnes accounts there can/will be now because all it takes to be one is 8 bucks a month. No oversight.
But anyway. . . did you all know that Ben always has the *hardest* of die cast abs? I swear to God the denialism required to be a doe eyed fan girl is utterly staggering and absolutely pathetic. (And yes, you've already read the interview. many times *rolls eyes*)
by Anonymous | reply 61 | May 9, 2023 8:39 PM |
R61 I hear you about the blue ticks and yes I know that anyone can apply for one now.
However even although Twitter has lost a lot of staff since Musk took over which affected who knows what in the background, they are still gonna check if someone comes along and claims to be a celebrity, especially one who already has a profile on Twitter.
Which is why he should pay the 8 bucks so that he is ‘the’ verified Ben Barnes on there.
Without that and by just shoving a disclaimer on his bio, he’s just another pebble on the beach.
After all, he’s bound to get burned by the meanies on Tiktok somewhere along the way and he’ll then probably want to go running back to Twitter! Lmao.

The white cat hair all over his sweatshirt makes sense now if he's been doing it with Peyton this whole time. Theres been pics of them together on/off for like a decade plus the ones Rob used to have posted when he became a citizen. I assume it was Rob, Ella, Peyton and Ben on the Malibu hike. And the Ella story with cat set to the tune of Queen's 'Best friend'. It was like saying "hey ppl, he's not fucking me, he's been fwb with Peyton for years now." Im kidding . Unless Im right. The guy clearly has intimacy issues with a phobia of commitment and Peter Pan syndrome all rolled into one. I kind of feel bad for the girls he goes through. Although you know what you're getting into with him... I would think.

R73 Everybody's ignoring her because no one knows who she is. Including the people who worked this party. But they also obviously have no idea who Peyton is either (admittedly, does anyone outside of Ben's fans and Hallmark movie watchers?)
My opinion only, but if this was a "group of people invited," the people hired to photograph and promote the party would bother to find out who everybody was to better promote "the stars" *cough* at that party. But Ben is the only one in question that's identified. Also there's a rotating cast of people sitting in those seats around Kendrick, but Peyton is sitting in that same spot next to Ben in every picture. Also Kendrick is the only person Ben followed that night, meaning he's the only person Ben thought would elevate his Hollywood status by knowing. No better proof than *that* to a Ben Barnes fan!

Seriously look at the pictures the fans posted, these girls around him are yooooouuuuuunnnnnngggggg.. It's creepy! Literally speaking, pedos are rather infamous for seeking out their prey by hanging out where they hang out and ingratiating themselves into the scenery. Literally the first step in grooming behavior. Famous red flag for other adults, but unfortunately not for the kids who don't know better. To be clear I'm not saying that's what Ben's doing, I'm saying that's why his presence there is creepy as all fuck.

So who out there is aware that the second S&B "ASoSaC" convention is apparently happening in France tomorrow and that's likely where Ben is right now? Certainly not any of Ben's fans that don't have tickets. Because, as per usual, Ben Barnes doesn't do promotion of any kind unless he's specifically getting paid for it. And since everybody already has tickets/packages, likely no more money can be spent on him. So why on earth would he ever try to get his fans that *did* spend A TON of money on tickets excited to meet him or something? Clearly they don't deserve even that bare minimum in Ben's eyes. They're lucky they're getting his mere presence, smiles and hugs tomorrow after all.

The only reason I was aware was because I saw a fan comment under one of his posts that said she was so excited to be able to meet him again soon. Then when I went to her profile I saw that she was at the previous S&B convention.
I would never spend my hard-earned money to go to a convention, plus the travel and food expenses that would be involved in most cases, then wait in line with little lambs only to get a minute's worth of my idol's time and a pic. Even the panels seem like a waste of time and eventually get posted online. If it's the one where they all get to play games with the actors, that weird too. like 'rent a buncha clowns for a party' weird. I dont get fandom in general.
I'd rather bump into Ben Barnes at House of Pies and share dessert with him.

R90 He posted a couple of times afterwards, about the InStyle interview/pix and then when he was at Lizzy McAlpine’s concert. Nothing about being at his pals’ gig the next night - Stephanie & Kevin, that came via one of Kev’s friends and was reposted by Kevin, who seems to have become BB’s sm secretary somewhat.
R88 R89 Tbf, none of the other cast members have posted about it either except Calahan who mentioned it on his stories albeit within a thanks to all for his birthday wishes. No post from BB for his birthday either this year.
I guess none of them really truly look forward to these cattle markets and if it wasn’t for the allegedly large paycheques, probably wouldn’t go near anywhere them. Imagine having to smile and interact with a bunch of hormonal teens for two whole days and you can’t even escape at the end of the day, you’ve got to spend another hour socialising and playing party games. Must keep the thought of those lovely big bank transfers hitting their accounts in the forefront of their minds.
As for the fans… the chance to hug and paw at their idols and the fantasy that they’ll fall in love with them at first sight seems to be worth the tradeoff… that they’ll probably have huge credit card bills to pay off for years. Or have pestered Mommy & Daddy for months until they caved and bought the tickets for them. They block out the reality that the celebs are being paid to be nice to them. However, that’s their choice and I know that some fancons are genuinely exciting for attendees - the really big cosplay ones for example.
The cost of these tickets are just prohibitive and totally unjustifiable to my mind but as long as the fans buy them, then these voracious convention companies will just keep arranging these kind of events. Empire seem determined to milk the S&B cashcow for alllmits worth… they’re even promoting a third ASOCAS next year. If Netflix cancel the show, how many of the cast will bother to attend even given the cash return… and what will the fan interest levels be by that stage?

I dont know why I bothered scrolling through a few Insta posts to see him but I give a quick glance passing a car accident too. Im seeing a lot of silly faces but not much genuine enjoyment from him. It has to be taxing emo and physi to do this typa shit, despite a large paycheck n knowing this is what comes w being in public eye, this part cant be easy.
And I have to agree that there is no way in hell he remembers any of these people. Can you imagine the thousands of people he's had to cattle call through over the last couple years? Even the ones that consistently bombard his social media, we all know ppl dont look the same in person as they do online .. if they show their face at all.. filters, retouching and angles hide so much. Ben overfiltered himself too at one point. Hell the man has wrinkles on his forehead he still filters out with the selfie cam. Anywy not trying to stomp on these kids dreams or anything. Agreeing with the fantasy opinion from above too. I blame rom coms. . There are a few girls who he has interacted with multiple times I can understand those people him remembering but theyre not at the conventions.
And it's still really weirds me out... the Shadow Daddy thing. As someone who is Hispanic and used to the term Papi, it's still gross. Your partner should be your equal not your... ewww nvrmnd. Just my opinion
And thank you for the catch up on the social media postings. Is actually kind of some nice people on here. Haha

If I were Ben and some of the girls would do that to me, I would actually start to recognise them because this is borderline terrifying.

And in turn he would take money and go to strip club or buy a drone. Just being silly. I make myself laugh with this one.
I wonder if the ones who posted his live shows to youtube go? I was shocked ppl flew from other states to LA then over to NY in a matter of days just to see him. Thats crazy and so expensive imo. What the hell do they do for a living? Lol

Maybe it's just her translation from the original German.. (though I enjoyed the fact that she recently followed that Ella girl. I'm sure it was solely as a supportive gesture towards Ben, right??)

R97 R98 Yeah some more mature fans involved but majority were younger, thanks to the S&B demographic.
Apparently ASOCAS2 was even more chaotic than last time, which is saying something. The usual running late, endless queuing, panels and vip ‘moment’ being rescheduled, fans being rushed even more than usual etc etc.
All that but also - oh dear - the pizzama party last night. Half an hour late, and then only lasted 30 minutes instead of an hour. With ‘little interaction’ according to one disgruntled attendee. I think it was in the region of €200 or some such ridiculous figure to attend this. And if you asked for a full or even partial refund? Nah, they don’t know the meaning of the word, sorry. The whole thing sounds tortuous to me. But people keep on buying tickets for them so obviously they don’t.
And oh… that plushie toy dog BB made such a song and dance about on his IG stories - ‘The Barkling’? The one where the fan had made a cape and name tag for it, and was over the moon that BB loved it? He took it along with him today and after using it as a prop onstage for a little while, promptly re-gifted it to another fan.
Yeah, now of course he can’t keep everything he’s given by fans at these fancons, but at least dispose of things quietly, ffs. Don’t blow it up as a big thing on your own sm, then give it to someone the next day who’s going to immediately start boasting that they’ve got it.
Not a good look for BB if he’d thought about it for two seconds - just seems to show that he’s got no appreciation whatsoever for the stuff he’s given by fans who’ve put some thought and/or expense into a gift for him? That’s how it looks to me anyway.

R103 Well recall that he already did this last year too. One fan gave him some kind of embroidered cardigan kefta which he immediately re-gifted to Jessie. Because "it made her happy so it made him happy." And everybody went AWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!! at the obvious "they're fucking on the down low" evidence and nobody cared that he didn't keep it as he had the perfect cover.
Did he have an excuse this time since Jessie wasn't even there? Or is it completely obvious to these children yet that he in fact doesn't want your stupid handmade gifts, he ONLY wants your money.

The kids at those fancons might be delusional fantasists… but Ben Barnes is no less so.
“A second career?” Nooooooo! It isn’t! It’s an extended vanity project! And if it goes well he might tour? God help us. But there he is listening to the screams of the other delusionals at his fancon panel and thinking “Yes! They really want this!” Just like he mentioned that stupid meme which kept popping up on Twitter (which he’s never on now ofc) … “where’s the damn album!” Wrong on all counts.
I guess this time he’s going to try and get a record deal… a whole album would cost him mucho dinero 💰💰💰and the occasional commercial, cameo appearance and fancons are not going to cover the vast abyss it would create in his bank account. And a tour?! With all the related expenses? He’d have to move back in with his parents.
Just get back to your real job, you big fool… that’s acting, in case you’d forgotten!

Ok people
I've been lurking on here in December and went to the convention this weekend. For the context I'm a 21yo girl, it was my first convention - no I didn't go for BB - no I didn't pay for a full trip, I live here. I only pay the subscription for this month to respond to your questions if you have any.
I met him for a photoshoot and again for an autograph session. It basically confirmed what I was already thinking about him (and you guys provided context for these thoughts back in December). He has a big ego and was basically there for the money. I was pretty shocked to see him with my own eyes being overtly annoyed at young girls who did nothing disrespectful to him. They were already anxious and he was basically rolling his eyes at them. He put on quite the show with a little boy and imo really wanted to be seen by everyone being so sweet to that one toddler. Please put your judgment aside regarding the naive young girls, they're excited about a tv show they love and the charismatic cast. They're not 42. (the ones I'm talking about, at least).
The VAST MAJORITY were very nice and sweet to the cast. Girls in their early 20s, fans of the books. I have only heard of one incident regarding an actor, a girl payed an autograph just to tell him that she didn't like him 🙄 (not BB, another one). But everyone else behaved. I did meet an actual crazy fangirl who tattooed the autograph of one of the actress and seemed to live for her, but if anything, I felt really bad for her. Her life as well as her mental health must be quite a mess.
I have heard girls saying that the impressions of him were mixed, he ignored a lot of people but was nice to others... Everything was really impersonal but I didn't mind it as long as he was polite. I'm just disappointed, even though I already saw him as a bit of narcissist and kind of an empty pretty face. Disappointed for the naive girls who thought that they would have a sweet moment. He's just as bland as his music, really. Other actors really WORKED for that pay check and one of them in particular took care of everyone and made sure to offer a great experience to fans. One stayed until 9PM because she really wanted to speak with everyone (she did not have too). A few were really genuine. BB was not. He only tolerates the fangirls because he knows that they're the one who pay for his lifestyle, not his talent... I think he's frustrated knowing that he's stuck relying on them. Maybe he already knows that he only got lucky with his looks and will never have more to offer than his face and his fake smile. Maybe that's why he seems to like the LA lifestyle.
I also saw multiple times the infamous BB Germany. I saw her took a photoshoot with him and if anything, it was unremarkable. Just as quick and impersonal as everyone else. Hi - hug pose - thanks 🤷♀️
For the dog thingy, I girl gifted him "the barking", he used it as a prop for a few pictures and such and regifted it to another girl on the next day. Then the girl who gifted it to him came to the girl he regifted it to and took it back. The 2nd one was in tears apparently.
I was also surprised to see so many girls that I recognised from past pictures. Who follow them around at all cons. Again, objectively pathetic but also really sad. If you have any questions go for it :)

Welp he is handsome and I'm just a girl 🤷🏻♀️ but the overt smugness did turn me off & I already knew that there was nothing beyond the facade.
I had already read some of the threads before attending the cons so it only confirmed all of what you guys said and what I perceived from his interviews/online presence. However I was surprised to see that even a few regular fangirls, who went there ready to give their lives to him, left feeling... deceived? I thought that his fans must be pretty delusional not to see how fake, crafted, empty everything about him is. His taste. The people he surrounds himself with. Thought it must have been a harsh thing to realise for them, it was nice knowing that the irl experience saved a few souls.

What in the ever loving hell was he thinking giving that stuffed toy away! What a horrendous thing to do! I didn't know about him giving the jacket away last year. What an absolute asshole! I mean he photographed the metal piano that someone gave him after his first show IN HIS HOUSE but the cute little plushie he couldn't keep?! Even if he didt want put into his suitcase he could have mailed it home. It would make a good gift for his girlfriend, the cat lover. LOL
His actions are constantly contradictory. Always sus someone who goes out of their way to say theyr humble nice guy and feel the need to say so often they are the ones other people come to for advice. Whats that Shakespeare line? Me think doth protesteth too much. No wonder his close friends groups swap more often than underwear. He is only interested in you if you have something to offer his career or ego.
I have to say again, about out the constant sniffing and swallowing of snot during interviews. Ive only watch the clip link in the comment above, not full clips or others, and thats all I could see. If this guy isnt a coke addict maybe he is snorting Adderall or something. Hes giving user red flags out like theyre on sale at the dollar store.
Ever since he said hes going to be more himself all were seeing is a real jerk. Maybe because he is so skinny and doesnt have good body, like the gif of him about to jump in the pool from goldigger is not to my taste at all. Skinny but doughy at same time, odd low pectorals, skinny AF legs etc. Little penis for sure. Unless it's a grower not a shower. Average at best. Has a nice face yes! He was bullied as a child. Late bloomer is having a hot boy summer for the last few years so taking full advantage of the attention and now ego is outta control. Plus living in the Los Angeles bubble that keeps men in Peter Pan syndrome.
Wow. I am so angry. But maybe more sad that he is so disappointing after liking him for so many years. He popped my balloon. Lol

I want to say thank you to the person who went to the convention and said everything. I personally appreciate it. I guess I'd ask you if you can recall any words he said. Like conversation or anything. Or was it just a lot of fans saying they think that he is wonderful and him rolling his eyes and fake smiling and doing what he does and then moving on to the next. I do feel bad for the fans who put out the money and didn't get what they deserved out of it. I mean I wonder if there is any more detail about his actions. But I also don't know what to ask for. Lol

Wait. He says he already has half the full length vanity project album done? If you already have six songs in the can but have only been cooking up new music for the last few months how good can they be? I bet those 6 are covers he hopes real musicians will like so he can glom onto them and say he's their friend.
I thought some of his music was good on the EP but he didn't exactly deliver in person. Plus, he was drinking a lot before the 1st show (I was there) and lost steam as the "high" wore off. I think that's the difference between a professional musician and him. They don't lose energy from start to finish. How the hell does he think he's going to be able to do a full-blown concert and tour? It's exhausting. He totally failed when he was in front of a big crowd. The scary pockets crowd. And that was 1 measly song he barely knew the lyrics to.
Im really starting to see the fake, well-rehearsed "aw shucks Im just a normal guy act" peel away.

[R110] I would think that he has been having a hot boy summer since his Narnia days honestly. I mean, his "longevity" has always been about him being pretty. His last main character moment was Dorian Gray, wasn't it? Producers must have understood fairly quickly how limited he was, and the nature of the fanbase around him.
[R111] Thank you for responding! You're right, there's not a lot to say, really, but at least it's out there. It was mostly fans telling him that they love him and him either fake smilling or ignoring them. When someone tried something else (respectful, of course, like giving him a prop for a funny picture) he seemed visibly frustrated and I could see that some of the girls were crushed by his reaction. It was very obvious. The pics with you cost 90€ each, Ben. Wear the damn dog ears for 2 seconds and stop rolling your eyes. I saw him pout a few times. That's only my theory but at times I think he might have felt used, which I understand by the nature of these cons but also he's the reason why everything was so impersonal. Again, other actors made sure to put timid fans at ease and tailor interactions for the human being that came to see them. It is their job and they chose to come. I know that cons are weird because we're paying to meet them but some of the actors genuinely enjoyed meeting fans and went above and beyond. One of them was more introverted but remained polite, listened and looked at everyone in the eyes, at least. I have had great conversations at autographs with some of the actors that simply talked to us as if we were regular people. Ben didn't even look at me in the eyes, took my book, signed and that was it. I said that one of his song helped me when I was in a dark place last year (right before I saw through the veneer), and then he looked up with a smile and thanked me for coming (aka showing me the door). He wasn't really listening to anything the girls were saying. But it's not the stereotyped con full of sweaty obese nerds who haven't heard of showering. It was sweet young girls (shy/anxious nerds, still), who came dressed up, with their hair and makeup done. Worst case scenario they were awkward and overexcited or emotional but beyond the few obsessed BB Germany types following them around the world at all cons I cannot stress how normal and respectful the fans were. Btw she behaved too. I expected her to jump up and down and act crazy but really I don't even think that I've seen her make any other facial expression than her usual half smile, and she stayed with a group of other girls she keeps meeting at other cons. The crazy is silent in her case...
Very random information but I did get to hug him twice and the perfume he wears is generic and forgettable. Could have been called "random male scent", or "frustrated narcissist". And I saw him make a few jokes at the fans expense which again put me off.
PS: There was a gay guy in his mid 30s that came to see him. I wonder if it's someone from here lol

R123 How did you get to hug him twice if you were there for a book signing? And BB Germany of course would not act excited, because to her way of thinking, she's just there to hang with her close personal friend Ben, as one does.
R110 I can understand BB not wanting to keep every tacky tchotchke that fans make for him, but as usual he thought he was being smart ("Look how kind I am bestowing this gift upon a fan!"), but was actually being a dumbass (doing it on the same day that the gifter was there to find out about it.)

There seems to be a very noticeable change in the way he's acting at this Con compared to all the other times. I was at the hotel Cafe show but I cannot recall anything good juicy to report. He made his rounds with all of the fans and it was really quickly. He interacted more with two fan towards the end of the meet n greet. Gave them the last of his time. The one girl, they were talking very closely with each other like they knew each other and she put something in his hoodie. So who knows what that was all about.

The more I learn about him the more I realize he has a real fear of commitment or fear of intimacy or both. Or some other such psychological deep issues. At his age for someone who has remarked about having children, in the new John mag he says "his children", anybody in his age group is getting to a point where having children would be difficult. Of course there are alternatives but someone with his ego won't go the adoption route. Maybe surrogacy. Anyway just saying this because I see yucky old dudes like Steven Tyler, Rod Stewart, DeNiro etc still having kids and all I see is Ben's future. Waiting and prioritizing ego and career over the thing he claims to.hold so highly... love.
