Los Angeles, June 24 – Presidential candidate John Kerry has met the Fockers. Ben Stiller, Barbra Streisand and Robert DeNiro, who all star in the upcoming movie Meet the Fockers, helped out at a fundraiser at the Disney Concert Hall last night. We can’t imagine what Ben Affleck meant when he complained about being in the press way too much for the wrong reasons. “Next question!” was his response when asked how he felt about Jennifer Lopez’s recent marriage to Marc Anthony. He also likes Barbra Streisand’s music. (Is that the real reason J. Lo left him?) Affleck had lots of political opinions, but we weren’t really paying attention as he yakked about the republicans’ tax cuts for the rich, and lack of healthcare initiatives.

Willie Nelson thinks John Edwards would make a good running mate for Kerry, even though he’s a lawyer. "He’s from down south, so I could forgive him.” Streisand and Neil Diamond reunited to sing You Don’t Bring Me Flowers for the first time in 20 years. Babs’ husband James Brolin, Leonardo DiCaprio, Jamie Foxx and Billy Crystal all added their two cents.
