Ben Affleck and J.Lo Steal the Show in Hilarious New Dunkin’ Super Bowl Ad
Dunkin’ Donuts released a hilarious ad with superstars, Jennifer Lopez “J.Lo” and Ben Affleck during this year’s Super Bowl. The commercial dropped on February 12.
The Super Bowl is an iconic yearly event for everyone — no matter their love of the game. The Super Bowl is watched by millions annually, not just for football but also for the advertisements and performances. This year, Dunkin’ got superstars J.Lo and Ben Affleck to star in their commercial. The ad features Affleck in Medford, Massachusetts wearing a Dunkin’ uniform, taking orders in the drive-thru from shocked customers.
At the end of the ad, Jennifer Lopez pulls up, asking Affleck “Is this what you do when you say you are going to work all day?” Affleck, caught, tells his “coworkers” that he has to go. Before he does, J.Lo instructs Affleck to “grab me a glazed.” This seemingly one-off instruction has become the brand’s new Twitter header and has dominated their most recent Tweets.
@ fellow social media managers: ya’ll grabbing a glazed today?? we all deserve one

Over the years, Affleck has become synonymous with the brand. The internet loves his passion for Dunkin’ coffee, joking about his paparazzi shots with the items. Affleck even seems to acknowledge the memes in the ad, pulling a face that looks to be a reference to an iconic shot of him picking up his Dunkin’ order in the past.

Fans are loving this mock-reality ad, praising the perfect choice to include Affleck. Some even joked that the ad was the only reason they were going to watch the Super Bowl. Not only that, but Affleck’s Bostonian roots came to play in the advertisement too. In his interactions with fellow Massachusetts natives, Affleck appears to be right in his element. Even Dunkin’ couldn’t help but point out the perfect nature of their collab, tweeting “we did it ben, we did it.”
