Ben Affleck addressed his much-talked-about Oscars speech when wife Jennifer Garner made an appearance on stage during his monologue on Saturday Night Live last night. Ben got a lot of heat in the press for referring to his marriage as "work" in his best picture acceptance speech, but he explained that he didn't mean it in a negative way and brought out Jen — who took a break from filming Draft Day in Ohio — to clear the air, with hilarious results. Fun fact: Jen isn't the only A-list actress that Ben has asked to join him while he was hosting SNL, he brought then-girlfriend Gwyneth Paltrow on as a guest star during his opening speech when he hosted back in 2000. Watch Ben's moment with Jen and see his bit with Gwyneth after the jump!

Rachel wore a black lace dress as she greeted Ben and their costar Olga Kurylenko, who took a break from her promotional duties for Oblivion to attend the event. Plenty of other stars turned out for the movie's debut, including Homeland's Morena Baccarin, Zachary Levi, and How I Met Your Mother's Josh Radnor. During the premiere, Ben discussed how he and Jennifer Garner balance their busy schedules with their family life. Jennifer recently revealed that she is happy to work less for Ben, but now that she's got new projects on the horizon Ben is picking up more home duties. He said, "I'm preparing myself to take on some more of the burden [at home]. She's got a couple of movies coming up, so it's going to be a little Mr. Mom action, and I'm going to get back in the ring and we're going to see if I still have it."
Rachel has been spending her time in LA working on her press duties for the film, which hits theaters on Friday, April 12. She stopped by Disneyland with her friends and family earlier this month and appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Monday, where she revealed that she got hallucinations after buying pot in her native Toronto.
