Sure, Ben Affleck had shown us that he had romantic leading-man material in "Pearl Harbour" prior to snagging the Sexiest Man Alive title in 2002. And sure, he had a busy year starring in "The Third Wheel," "The Sum of All Fears," and "Changing Lanes." But we all know what put him over the edge in 2002: Affleck started dating Jennifer Lopez while filming "Gigli" and became engaged to her shortly after. Although they broke up, Affleck and Lopez got back together nearly 20 years later in April 2021 and officially tied the knot in July 2022.
