Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star Angie Katsanevas trolled Lisa Barlow for pretending to have a personal relationship with actor Ben Affleck.
On Saturday, a Bravo fan page shared a clip of the Good Will Hunting actor politely pulling a Mariah Carey re: Jennifer Lopez moment. The internet – and Angie K. – couldn’t resist dragging the infamous name-dropper.
For context:
During his press tour for The Rip, Ben was asked by Access Hollywood, “Do you know who Lisa Barlow is?” Never forget, LB said she missed a cast trip due to an event she attended with Ben and Blake Lively.
“I don’t want to get anyone in trouble,” began Ben. “I don’t know what this is.”
The interviewer proceeded to show the movie star a photo of Lisa. Ben asked, “What was the event?” After learning it was Sundance-related, Ben took a moment to ponder the connection. He revealed he hasn’t been in Utah for “8, 9, or 10 years.”
“She doesn’t look familiar to me,” declared Ben. “I don’t want to embarrass her. I don’t want to be the jerk who is like, ‘I did meet you. You don’t remember meeting me?’”
From the desk of LB:
Lisa slipped into the comments of Access Hollywood’s Instagram post to clarify where she’s met/partied with Ben Affleck. It wasn’t in Utah, according to Lisa, but at Austin’s South By Southwest Festival.
“SXSW 🩶🩶🩶 The Accountant 2 🩶🩶🩶 and it was a great movie and party,” declared Lisa of her relationship with Ben.
Lisa lives a very different life:
“I don’t want to spend the night with [co-star Bronwyn Newport]. She’s a pathological liar. She can’t tell the truth to save her life. It’s like, disgusting,” the Vida Tequila co-owner shared while on a FaceTime call with Katsanevas.
“Also, I have a work thing. It’s like, a big deal. I think what people forget is I have a very full life. Because I keep it kinda private. And like, I’m not gonna drop names, but like, I’ll be with Ben and Blake [Lively],” Barlow added.
“I’ll be with Ben Affleck and you’ll be with Bronwyn.”
Angie K. entered the chat:
In the comments section, Angie laughed at Lisa.
“[Ben] didn’t know Lisa, but he recognized Celia.” (Of course, Celia is Angie’s beloved pet poodle.)
Pop culture connoisseurs had thoughts:
- might have been there at the same time, but he doesn’t seem to know you.
- baby gorgeous you don’t have to explain as long you know your truth and it happened. Just feel special that even tv reporters/journalist cant stop bringing your name to be relatable. Keep your head up and keep striving.
- but that girl tried to play it off like she knew them or was working with them personally.
- That’s impossible…Lisa Barlow was with me the whole night, drinking Diet Coke poolside.
