Drama!!!!! Here for it. We need an oral history stat 

How have I never noticed this! And how was Jen Garner like, yeah, this works! This is WILD.

Well, okay, let’s crunch the numbers here: 13 Going On 30 came out in spring of 2004, which means it probably filmed in 2003. According to reports, Jen G and Ben didn’t start dating until mid-2004.

So, while a funny coincidence, I think it’s just that. 

Omggggg I never even put two and two together 

I'm certain I'm not the only one to notice/get a kick out of this, but I always find it so funny that J.Lo was featured as the rival cover star in 13 Going on 30, which starred none other than her ex-fiancé (AT THE TIME) Ben Affleck's then-soon-to-be-wife Jennifer Garner. Was this intentional by the filmmakers? What did Ben think when he saw the movie? These are the things that keep me up at night. 

For the record, the Poise cover is better:
