Jennifer Garner mocks Ben Affleck hashtag

Los Angeles - Jennifer Garner references Kanye West's hashtag about Ben Affleck on a regular basis.

The 41-year-old actress finds it amusing that the rapper referenced her Oscar-winning husband in a Twitter rant slamming Jimmy Kimmel for mocking him on his chat show, in which the 'New Slaves' hitmaker wrote: "SHOULD I DO A SPOOF ABOUT YOUR FACE OR YOU F***ING BEN AFFLECK... #NODISRESPECTTOBENAFFLECK."

The Dallas Buyers Club star told Jimmy Kimmel Live that she has taken to using the hashtag in conversation with Ben, whom she has been married to since 2005 and has three children, Violet, seven, Seraphina, four, and Samuel, 20 months, with.

She said: "I say that all the time. I say, 'You look crazy. Hashtag, no disrespect to Ben Affleck.' Just on an average day, that's just how I might greet him in the morning."

Jennifer was in high spirits as she also joked about her husband's obsession and superstitions about the baseball World Series, as his beloved Boston Red Sox are currently battling the St. Louis Cardinals for the title.

She said: "That's really all that's happening at my house right now. I don't know if the kids are being fed... And trick-or-treating might be cancelled if there's a game seven."

She added: "It's a little bit ridiculous. The sweatshirt goes inside out, the rally cap goes on...But he's not kidding. He's really not kidding. Like, you would go to a game with him, and if they lose, he tells his friend, 'Sorry, I have tickets for tomorrow, but you can't come. We lost because of you...' It's some weird guy thing."
