Ben Affleck asks TV host to expose her breasts, mocks disabled in resurfaced video (Watch)

Updated

In light of actress Hilarie Burton reviving her claim that Ben Affleck groped her while she was a host on MTV’s “TRL” in 2003, another disturbing video has resurfaced of the Oscar winner fondling a different TV host.

A video dating back to 2004 shows the “Batman” actor inappropriately touching Anne-Marie Losique, then host of Montreal’s entertainment news show “Box Office.”

In the video — from a press junket for his 2004 flop “Jersey Girl” — the TV personality sits on the actor’s lap as he asks, “They would like it better if you did this show topless, the station, wouldn’t they?”

He then lifts and turns her in his lap so she’s facing the camera. “We could do the interview like this,” he says, embracing her tightly and nestling his face on her chest. “That’s a lovely perfume you have on,” he repeats.

“You usually show a lot more cleavage than this. What’s the story? Why are you covering it up today?” he presses.

When Losique responds that it’s “Sunday morning,” he insists, “that never stopped you before from getting them ti-ties out. Who you trying to fool, ‘Sunday morning’? You could be in church, you should have that rack on display.”

He then tells her to work at Fox in L.A.: “You’d blend right in … Fox L.A., they have a pole that they dance on.”

“These breasts are really firm — suspiciously firm; they are like two giant stones,” he says.

He appears to twist her nipple at one point and ask if she’d like to create a “Janet Jackson” moment, alluding to the pop star’s infamous nipple-slip at the Super Bowl.

Throughout the video, Affleck appears to be slurring his speech as Losique giggles.

Later on in the segment, Affleck makes a joke about disabled people.

“Don’t make me look like I am retarded! I look like I have cerebral palsy,” he said in a mock French accent. “Oh, is that (offensive)? Only in America.”

Unlike Burton, Losique has bragged about the encounter in the past. She tweeted on Wednesday about the more than decades old interview, writing in French, “Crazy day! The U.S. media has gotten back to this moment. More to come.”

In a 2001 interview for the Los Angeles Time for an article titled “Aboard the USS Ben Affleck” Losique discussed her habit of siting on Affleck’s lap during their numerous interviews.

“It’s something that started a long time ago. Now I’m always on his lap,” she told them. “I don’t have to prepare anything. It’s very easy. But I never get to ask him any questions. Never in five years.”

Her sizzle reel for the program showcases all her flirtatious encounters with the actor. She owns the adult entertainment channel Vanessa TV and is the daughter of Serge Losique, the founder and president of the Montreal World Film Festival.

Aflleck’s reps and Losique did not immediately respond to Variety‘s request for comment.
