Ben Affleck speaks out about the video with Kimmel...

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,affleck.jpg So Ben Affleck is talking a little bit about the hilarious parody video he made with Jimmy Kimmel in response to Matt Damon and Sarah Silverman. Apparently a the secret bathtub scene that got cut. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,kiss.jpg"I remember seeing Matt's [video] and thinking to myself, 'Oh, it would be funny to do one with me and Jimmy.'" Ben told EW.com. "They called and immediately I was like, 'Yes, it should be this idea ...,' and they had the same idea more or less already. I have a lot of respect for the group over there – they're really good comedians – so I just committed to it."

Ben, whose directorial debut "Gone Baby Gone" got raves, says the singing was more difficult than wearing a pair of short shorts (he sure looked good in 'em!).

"You couldn't really do it half-speed," he said. "You had to be painting toes and blow-drying hair. At one point we were going to take a bath together, but the bubbles couldn't get high enough, so that ended up getting scrapped."
