Ben Barnes XXXVI - The Most Toxic Transactional Relationship I've Ever Seen Continues

Well Aubrey was liking his pics since September of last year so safe to say it has been a year of them being together.

Her painting is in the background of his dad albums video, she commented and Ben liked. He looks extremely old and not healthy. I do wonder if he is drinking more which is why we hardly ever see him now, as there were rumors he was drinking a lot on tour. His musical muse is gone thanks to Aubrey and all we get now is a sad man with his clearly fame hungry much younger gf. The cliche at its finest. Notice no new music from him even with six months of him not working. Even this time last year his vibe and entire life was wildly different, I think because he lost a good thing, he is settling in the choices he made.

I’m not saying Thomas’s music is bad, it just sounded like the same song over and over. Also did his dad have a lost love or was he using his sons drama as inspo? Some of those songs sounded more about the one who got away, just like Benny boys music. Maybe they both are not with their first choices, see how that haunts a man.

Look at the younger generation aging like spoiled chocolate and regular milk.

Bottom line he looked like pure shit yesterday. Enough grease for me to have a Friday fish fry. Give that man a long shower and a clarifying shampoo. That is so not sexy. On the other hand, father may I. 😈 That’s a Gerri or pensioner I would like to have.

Fangirls: you alright? Like seriously. Stop being Karens and insulting people who have been here longer than you. You can’t control the narrative. Everybody doesn’t have to love tweedle twat and tweedle c^nt Ya’ll getting kind of MAGA with your thinking. The feeling you need to control the narrative everywhere

Let us have our hateration. Or do you want me get that old Queen who has some information on the lot of you?

😂

That singer who groomed that 11 year old and murdered her and left her in bags in his Tesla to rot was a Christian and had a prayer tiktok and was seen as a really nice guy. His public persona very different from the monster he was. When will the Ben fans realize everything they get from Ben is his persona. Ben isn’t a monster, but just like his gf sells her Christian beliefs when she is a grifter and mean girl he is also playing the same game. We now only see him when he is begging for money just like his gf and her bad paintings. It’s never about sharing who they are and being authentic, it is always about the grift. These people aren’t who they say they are and it’s so obvious.

I think Skeletor's "artwork" represents her perfectly. It's giving bland basic bitch made with cheap $1.99 Folk Art paint.

[R6] Who does she think she is fooling? Oh his dummy fans and his friends who know nothing anbout arat and are uncultured. After all these years on SM why say this is her first love but we haven’t seen anything in the past? Acting like she is a serious artist but it is all performative. But, for who? Trying to impress someone.

Ben is 44 now and still unmarried with no kids. Is he just waiting for the right girl?

R8 He's been waiting for the right girl and in his disturbed mind it's crumb queen. She's way too young for him and mixed race, which is his type and what gets his d*ck hard. All she had to do was put on her good girl act - smile, be charming, sing badly to him, and talk about her religion. And it worked, because now she's living in his house after less than a year of dating. She took full advantage of his desperation. Now she can get whatever she wants out of him. The girl gives Ben all the attention he desires since she has nothing else taking up her time (remember she doesn't work and lives off men). She has his love and full support. Next will be his last name and child if he doesn't snap out of his crisis. His choice of her proves he has low standards. Marry her so we can all laugh at the next chapter of his demise as a husband to a cunt. The few fangirls that are left will surely leave if that happens - they don't like her either. 🤭

[Quote] ...aging like spoiled chocolate and regular milk. R2 One of the best descriptions of those two. 🤣

R9 A literally perfect description. Bravo.

WE'RE BACK !

^ like toenail fungus

^ if toenail fungus weighed 500 lbs

So Janelle originally posted this shot of Mary Kate and Ashley in very late May. But when did the meet up take place? Was it *before* Ben left for London for The Institute premiere? Or was it afterwards. Because that's Ben's house that Janelle was visiting, and considering all the different eye lines, there were multiple people there that day.

If it was before, then Ben and Janelle met long before the Clifford concert when 44 year old Ben desperately started following Janelle and going back in time to like all her posts in an obviously blatant attempt to get Janelle to approve of him. Like the "grown" *pathetic* man that he is. And she appropriately took days to follow him back and now rarely if *ever* likes his posts. Wonder why that could be?

Or if it was after, then why did Skeletor have to wait until Ben was out of town before she could invite Janelle over to Ben's house? Did Janelle disapprove of the relationship with her best friend *SO* strongly that she wouldn't set foot in Ben's house when he was there? Wonder why that could be?

Is Janelle literally the only intelligent one among them?

[R15] Didn’t realize the one who compared her to a horse was spot on. With her big ass forehead to boot. 😂

R15 Betting Skeletor took the photo of her friends while Ben was saying something boring and stupid as usual. Explains their forced smiles and the sleeping dog.

R15 Since a friend dutifully reminded me, edited to add: Who remembers that Benny has tried this manipulation tactic before? Back when Benny broke ALL the covid rules that he commanded others live by so he could country hop and have a nice Christmas vacation with The Ho and Nina and Shaun (RIP). Back when he also desperately followed and liked everything that Nina and Shaun posted to try to force The Ho's best friend to like and approve of him. Back when Nina and Shaun were smart enough to see right through the manipulation as they never paid him any real mind. Never followed him back. Never liked or commented. After spending an entire vacation together, the only acknowledgement Benny got was Nina purposefully being juuuust too late to hide his presence with them. She outted him, clearly against his wishes, and yet he *still* continued to put his tail between his legs as he tried to charm the hell out of them so they'd approve of him. But they never did. They knew, they apparently didn't approve, and Benny eventually gave up and unfollowed them.

He was, and *still* is this pathetically DESPERATE. *Still * trying to manipulate The Best Friend. Let's see just how smart Janelle actually is.

OK is Cleland following in Ho’s every footstep? First the Soho Farmhouse, now she’s in Montana. Wonder if her final destination is the ‘Paws Up Resort’ so she can sleep in the same bed?

Or do we have another film part? That’ll be all of 5 minutes’ filming, then 😏

I would bet money she isn’t working because she isn’t talented at anything and even fucking Mr Barnes and advertising it, no one cares about her.

That secret Covid trip Benny did with Jules and Nina and Shaun was in montana. Benny is just taking her on a tour of all the places he fucked jules or wanted to fuck her (the bathtub at soho farm house to be exact). Nothing more romantic than your boyfriend taking you to places that remind him of another woman. Aubrey flaunts it, it’s so embarrassing for her.

[R18] These are not smart people including Ben.

Aubrey The Freeloader strikes again? This time Montana. Where to next? Utah perhaps?

Cal’s new movie is so boring and he clearly didn’t have a big enough part to get invited to the premiere at least, Aubrey’s movie is literally a maga wet dream, and literally by the time Benny boys second season of the show no one cares about comes back around will anyone even be watching streaming services at all. These people act like they are not D list, at one point before jules and Aubrey and him just self sabotaging his entire life he was working with real big names.

Also could Montana be Christian related? We know how active she is in the church. Maybe she sold everything to be raptured and clearly Jesus could give a fuck. No proof Ben is even with her, maybe they finally broke up. Wishful thinking as he has already done enough to ruin his reputation.

Ben's name is on the D-list in erasable ink. With no talent and his greasy hair he can easily slip off it into obscurity. He should be thanking his lucky stars for Prince Caspian from almost two decades ago, because that's the only thing keeping him eligible for fan cons. Skeletor and the Whitman wannabe aren't on any list. These people are a joke.

Just a thought...

When Prince Caspian was released in cinemas Ben was 26 years old and Aubrey was 14.

Did you see that girls manic video about all the dates and numbers for the deluxe album and how she predicted a Christmas album and blah, blah, like Taylor swifting his music.

Ben isn’t smart enough to be doing all that. He is literally taking cues from his muse, another woman not Aubrey. He was releasing his live videos based on her stories and since it looks like she has moved on, he is silent with his trad wife. Him being the in dark on the deluxe cover with her in initials in the dark is reflecting that relationship. God a Christmas album is exactly what jules did when she was trying to be a country star and screams I have failed at music. Everything is so late because he has no money. That’s why he uses his fans free work as promotion.

Aubrey dresses and act like she is a teenager which I’m sure is the appeal to the stunted man he is. The instagram for her cat and getting his friends to follow it, a woman in her thirties doesn’t act like that.

Beloved vs nevermind

Beloved came out on his muse birthday last year and nevermind premiered Aubrey about a month later (it took months before Benny said she was his gf). He claimed her after his tour of course, leaving that door open for this other one and for his fans money of course. It appears Aubrey could be the second choice. Beloved muse is working with Oscar winners per her stories and nevermind Aubrey is doing a western in Montana.

Wouldn’t be surprised if Aubrey’s project is one of those Yellowstone spin-offs that no one cares about and is the hallmark for the right wing. She really is aligning herself as being the maga princess. Surprised she is even working, maybe fucking/manipulating the D lister gets you some perks besides living rent free in his house and freeloading on his meet and greets and brand trips.

So to the best of my ability to discern from the inane chatter, Benny possibly told every single one of his FanFraus at this latest con that he wrote a new Christmas song and, spoiler alert, he's possibly releasing it next month. But yet again, he probably told each one not to tell anyone yet, which is why, yet again, everyone's spreading it "secretly" amongst themselves even faster than their natural, mutual hatred for Skeletor. Priorities ladies.

But this does make one wonder doesn't it. Benny self admits all the time that he's a very excitable boy. And when he's really happy and excited about something he finds it incredibly difficult to not share it and show and tell people. This new Christmas song being the perfect example. And yet for Skeletor, his purported "girlfriend" he just "loves" oh so much, the literal most he will do to share his excitement and "happiness" (LOL!!!!!!) is over a year later as a birthday present, call a third party to leak photos of them where he refuses to hold her hand, but instead drags her around like he's walking his dog. On all his friend's posts he can leave glowing, excitable, loving comments, but for Skeletor's posts, the literal most the great Logophile can muster is a few heart emojis that match the color of her diarrhea stained canvases. That's it. That's the extent of the acknowledgement and "happiness" he will ever share over Skeletor. The girl that his delusional FanFraus desperately try to tell him makes him happy. Well since actions speak SO much louder than words, he obviously could have fooled the rest of us. Maybe that's why he literally ranked her as a distraction from his work in terms of his priorities at that other con. Guess sometimes words speak just as loud as actions.

R28 Please don’t tempt fate. I do not wish to have my social media polluted with photos and mentions of those two losers. They can stay in the shadows forever as far as I’m concerned 😏

I don’t understand his strategies for his music at all. He could have released a new string version up until the release of the deluxe album on the 24th but we get nothing, he said three new hearts is soon when it should have been while he was doing this con so people could pair the song with their posts, he is talking about releasing a Christmas song in October (why?), just like his place holder gf none of it makes sense. Janelle starting dating her fiancé the same time Aubrey and him started hooking up and janelle is engaged. A 44 year old man knows if he is giving you a ring, especially after you live together, by now.

Well it looks like Skeletor has decided to spend some quality time with her fundamentalist ultra MAGAt Montana friends this weekend. Undoubtedly learning all the latest tips and tricks for being an obedient little TradWife. Plus today's Sunday! So you *know* there's some DEEP Jesus freaking in her soul right now. Maybe she'll return to "dedicating her life to leading people down the path of Jesus" like she claimed in that YouTube video from a few years ago? How will she even stand to ever return to the Sodom and Gomorrah known as LA? Assuming she even wants to of course.

I have been assured that she is indeed wearing just a smidge of makeup in this picture, but look at just how much younger and happier she looks here with her close friend than in any picture we've seen of her where Ben is around. (Do please see the title picture for this thread from her birthday present dog walked paparazzi photo shoot!) The same goes for the happy smiles picture with Janelle from Ben's house when he wasn't there, compared to the horrible concert bathroom selfie with Janelle when he *was* with her. And we've spent months establishing the same EXACT thing goes for Ben. How sullen, old and depressed he always looks in every single picture when she's with him, but how much happier and lighter he looks when she's not around. And I will again point you to the title post of this thread regarding how much you glow with happiness when you're with the right person. Pictures really are worth a thousand words aren't they.

Honestly she uses filters a lot as her face looks different from post to post. I’m sure all her fake, Jesus loving, white pumpkin spice latte friends use filters as well. If his gf is maga then we are concluding he believes those things as well?

Do we think the friend playing Christmas music and Ben once again planting gossip with his paying fans that he knows will get out about him releasing a Christmas song when it is fall is a strategic move?

Knew that b!tch wasn't working in Montana. She doesn't work period!!

Someone said Aubrey is using Ben's house as a storage unit for her unsellable hideous paintings. That's why they are scattered all over his place and showing up in the background of his videos now. 😂

R34 wait did I miss something? The river pic, with the film crew, and the cowboy picture on her stories means what then?

R35 how amazing if we learned she doesn’t live with Ben and just uses his house to make it appear like she is there for almost a year now. If that is the case then creating that narrative for so long screams mental illness.

R34 No, if internet sleuths are to be believed, she was working on a short film whose entire budget was $60,000. For all the cast and crew and transportation and meals and lodging and whatever else. And they originally wanted to film in April but couldn't raise the money! So appropriately, Skeletor's paycheck is probably perfectly commensurate with her level of talent (or she's overpaid?). Then again, she was apparently playing the part of someone's sister. And that role was filled by an actual working actress. Which makes it obvious that probably the literal only reason Skeletor was cast in anything at all was because of the sibling-like resemblance to the actual actress. She simply got lucky. But I'm sure her big break will be any day now. She just needs to practice her blowjob skills on Ben for a little while longer. . . .

How embarrassing for her. She really tried to sell it like she was on a legitimate project, not some fund raiser with a micro budget. Ben is dancing for money in Utah. These people are truly pathetic.

With an entire budget of 60,000 she probably had to stay with friends because production couldn’t pay for it. I would feel unsafe doing a western in the elements, did they even have insurance?

R39 The other actress is currently posting about needing free bear spray and wondering "what the fuck she got herself into." Sounds about right for anything involving Skeletor actually.

Who is the actress? I want to follow her because at least she is honest, all Aubrey does is lie and make things appear one way when we all know they are another. Aubrey’s two projects this year, a maga movie and the lowest budget western ever made. She got a white British man so of course she is winning oh and Jesus.

[Quote] She got a British man so of course she is winning.

Take into account Skeletor played the dating game with zero competition. No woman in their right mind thinks Ben is a win.

R41 Exactly! Ben and Aubrey skew the truth or blatantly lie on SM to make things appear a certain way. So glad these DL threads and Coral's blog exist to get the full story. People have a right to know the truth about who they spend their hard earned money and time on. Ben is not Mr. Goody Two Shoes and Aubrey.... well, as we all know by now she's not some wholesome religious girl. Just a couple of fake ass bitches who look disgusting together.

R43 don’t forget they don’t make sweet music together either, her little song at his concert was atrocious. If they are doing a Christmas duet and he releases it, can the fan girls finally riot. Not just the looks, it’s the whole fucking thing.

One thing that will never get me to believe Aubrey is the one for him is how his band members who know his very well and want the best for him and are real artists don’t fuck with her. They don’t follow her, they don’t like her painting videos and they definitely don’t comment. That is all I need to know. That shows her character completely, those people I trust just based on who they are and how they show up in the world. They could see and feel who she really is immediately.

I had no idea who this Ben Barnes person was and why he has inspired all these multiple threads here, but I just binged The Institute. THAT guy??? He’s not that cute or talented. And is that a wig?

[R45]. Someone we have been dragging since the beginning of time because he is mad shady but tries unsuccessfully to make himself seem like a nice man written by a woman. Yes the acting was terrible for everyone involved with that series that baffles the shit out of everyone as to. why it got a second season. The hair is real and real greasy. The face and all those filters he uses are signs of a fake man who needs his ass glued to a therapist’s couch. Did we mention that his parents are mental health professionals? MAGA GF is a dummy POS who does these performative paintings that look like explosive diarrhea to scam his equally not smart fans. That cringe one that hosts DWTS used to be his ex. Nothing to see here. Hope this helps. 😝

[R45] I apologize for the manners of [R46] They didn’t mention the screeching out of range singing he is forcing on the rest of us. He thinks he is the next coming of Hozier. Shame on you [R46.] Do better 😂

[quote] She got a white British man

He’s white?

R16 More like a bumphead parrotfish. She used to date a hillbilly fisherman. Guess he quickly realized what he caught and threw her back to sea.

R49 Love that vision! 😂 Hoping there’s going to be a deja vu moment with Benny Barnes.

Since I have the best friends in the world (to everyone out there, you are brilliant and beautiful and we owe you one!), I'll add a couple to perfect visions.

Looks like Benny finally found an uncanny substitute for the actual Love of His Life that got away. Turns out this new pussy apparently hates the way he strokes it just as much though. . . .

And speaking of UNCANNY resemblances, while we thought the brilliant original BoJack Horseman Wimbledon picture was absolute perfection (and it was!), thankfully Skeletor's new co-star has done her absolutely dirty and provided us with the greatest picture ever taken to top it. Truly worthy of The Louvre.

And when Heaven and the universe absolutely blesses you with an early Christmas present as preposterously *wonderful* as this, you don't look a gift horse in the. . . oh. . . too late. . . .

R51 That is too fucking funny! *chef's kiss*

R52 She is mixed so horse from her dad and bumphead parrotfish from her mom. 🤣

R51 “Content not available in your region” … FOMO, please tell us what it is 😁

R52 Wonder why her photo is the only one out of the two which is blurry?! Taken by someone else who’s not a fan?!! 😂

R51 Choosing THAT particular Jho photo is very clever indeed.

R54 It's a rather perfect comparison between Skeletor's black-faced, light blue eyed cat, and Benny's black-faced, light blue eyed Love of His Life, Julianne Hough. As R53 said, chef's kiss.

Ben and Aubrey wear their hair the same. The spidey senses feel a break up. He is posting thirst traps again trying to be like Cal and nothing about his music or being in Montana supporting his gf.

To my fellow gay men still here, Ben is working out with song lyrics come be the man I need. He is asking for a man. Also his music muse has been posting a lot of stories so that could be why we get a thirst trap of him working his tittles with that song and/or he is looking for some dick.

[R58] “working the tittles” 😂 He needs it and he can’t even use Skeletor’s bra because he may need a C cup for those puppies. Also duh we know what he really wants that’s why they are progressively looking more and more like guys. Problem is, we don’t what his greasy baboon shrieking shady full of shit ass anymore. And is that circa 2010 mun with gross shorts? That’s isn’t even hot.

Also Coral was in the right ballpark calling her a certain fish but the one who can up with bump head parrot fish is the true genius here.

R58 Well keep in mind that Benny is literally *obsessed* with Olivia Dean, but that shouldn't come as any surprise to you. She is half-black, a model-actress-and-or-singer, and even younger than Skeletor. She is literally the perfect representation of Benny's fetishized type. And to boot, fellow London-born Olivia's actually talented, beautiful and very successful, so a very, VERY big step up from Skeletor in every way. Truly makes you wonder just who Benny thinks about every time he and Skeletor tuck themselves in at night.

But even better, I have a friend who has long hypothesized that Benny only posts his "workout selfie thirst traps" when he's advertising his availability to the ladies. There were the videos of him and Cal working out in their driveway early last year. Then there were the non-stop Alo videos from last year. Well now I shouldn't say non-stop should I, because they all of a sudden did stop cold turkey didn't they. And I'm sure it was just coincidence that they stopped just about exactly when he and Skeletor started dating. Yes friends, coincidence indeed.

We did get exactly one other completely out of the blue thirst trap early this summer from this very same gym though. Wonder if there was trouble in paradise back then to the point that Ben very clearly *reluctantly* agreed to an utterly miserable looking papwalk a week or two later to try and reconcile things. And now suddenly again today we have an even thirstier trap focused in on those tiny little shorts. Just what and why is he suddenly advertising to the world again?

Also we have two tattoos. The arm band and one on the hand. I can’t really make that one out. If he got ink with bands to signify his two failed relationships in the past five years, idk what else says break up and break down. The comments say these are temporary, for a new role perhaps? That gym is local for him correct? The institute does that start soon? If anyone can get clear pics of those tattoos would love to know what they are. Mid life crisis is full swing!

Also Olivia Dean was dating Harry styles. Harry didn’t want to commit (probably because she is so young and not really on his level) and she wrote a whole song about it. She looks young which is creepy Ben is attracted to that. 18 years younger than him, she is 26. To say she is in another stratosphere then Benny is an understatement. He really did get the temu Olivia with Aubrey.

R61 I believe I can also see there's a dot shape on his upper arm above the bands, and also there's possibly a little peak of the same bands on the other arm just underneath the sleeve. Can we just take a moment to appreciate the juxtaposition of the man bun and short shorts combo, with drawing fake tattoos all over yourself to go post a try hard tough guy work out video. Jesus.

R62 Well originally everyone was referring to Skeletor as Benny's Temu replacement for The Ho, given her gross behavior and definitely after Benny took her to the very same Soho Farmhouse bed that Julianne loved so much. But no, you're absolutely right. Skeletor is absolutely Benny's Temu Olivia Dean. He absolutely cannot afford the real thing so in his mid-life crisis he's settled for the cheap, classless knock off placeholder he actually can afford instead. How delicious. . . .

Aubrey let that horse pic in her tags, oh they definitely broke up or are in a rough patch. About fucking time! What if Aubrey and cal hooked up, now that would be an interesting plot twist. I mean they are all losers so birds of a feather.

Temu workout for a Temu man. He is really going to hurt himself with that crap form. He’s 44 and things break like fine china or for him like dollar store dinner plates.

In a perfect call back to R28, in addition to not being able to control his happiness/excitement and leaking the upcoming Christmas song, Benny has apparently also not contained his happiness and told his (literally!) biggest and most embarrassing FanFraus at the latest con that he has a small role he's about to film that calls for a NY accent, tattoos and getting ripped. Because he cannot help himself. When he's actually excited about something, when he's actually happy, he cannot contain it and tells people. His role has not been announced yet, he's not *supposed* to say anything to anyone, yet he did. Again.

Still waiting for the excitement and happiness he very definitely obviously feels over the girlfriend he just loves oh soooooooooo much to make it out there directly from him. Because a papwalk sullenly and anxiously walking his dog with his phone in his hand does not cut it. It shows the opposite in fact. So I don't advise holding your breath as we wait, because that shared happiness is never going to come.

Is that gym in LA? Is the project shooting in NYC, if he has a NY accent? At that Utah convention a week ago he did not look ripped at all. So in that story he is wearing the temp tattoos after filming while he is working out? For an Instagram video thirst trap? Pathetic.

He only did that pap walk because it was right before the institute premiered and he wanted press, I’m sure Aubrey thought that would bring her positive exposure which it did not, but really that had nothing to do with him loving Aubrey.

He did say in the comments he has big plans for where the light gets in live so maybe he’ll propose. They already live together, her church going trad wife mindset means babies and marriage need to happen yesterday.
