Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner have just purchased a mansion that was formerly owned by Gregory Peck -- thereby placing the couple the closest they will ever get to an acting Oscar.
The 8,000 square foot ranch house in the Pacific Palisades was sold to the couple for a whopping $17.5 million by mega-producer Brian Grazer, according to Hot Property. The five bedroom house features a gym, swimming pool and eight bathrooms -- and Gregory Peck once shot an ad for Pabst Blue Ribbon beer in the den.
The house was originally listed for $27.5 mil. Times are tough people, sometimes $17.5 mil is all a man can get.

Jennifer Garner knows nothing accentuates a chic black outfit like cuts and scrapes on your elbow and knee.
Turns out the 37-year-old mother of two got the injuries by falling while jogging.
Apparently, there is actually something more detrimental to Jen's health than "Ghosts of Girlfriends Past."

With their mouths covered in chocolate, adorable lil' Suri Cruise and Violet Affleck stole the spotlight from their birth mothers on Tuesday.
While Jen Garner took Violet out for some frozen yogurt, Katie Holmes must have given Suri a Scientolotreat during a visit to one of L.Ron Hubbard's buildings in Los Feliz.

Ben Affleck upheld his sworn duty as a Red Sox fan today -- by ripping into a Yankees fan.
Ben was talkin' baseball out in Santa Monica -- but when he found out our photog was a die hard Yankees fan, Affleck felt obligated to talk a little trash.
FYI -- neither one of them won the World Series last year.

Despite obviously having a huge belly full of fetus, our photog thought it seemed perfectly logical to ask Jen Garner if she'd given birth yet. Seriously.

Now that they have legal protection from that crazy stalker guy, Jen Garner and her daughter felt safe enough to break out their giant megawatt smiles at LAX earlier today -- but their security guy, he still meant business.
Just yesterday Jen scored a permanent protection order against Steven Burky, the man she says has been "stalking and harassing" her with some extremely creepy emails. Burky is still under a 5150 psychiatric hold.

Jennifer Garner scored a permanent restraining order this morning against the man who has become a menace to her entire family -- judging from the video, it's obvious she's living in fear.
Jen, who is pregnant with baby #2, exercised extreme caution yesterday -- and we're guessing it has something to do with Steven Burky, the man she says has been "stalking and harassing" her.

Jennifer Garner just got a permanent restraining order against the man who has allegedly terrorized her.
Garner's lawyer, Blair Berk, just appeared in downtown L.A. court and got an order against Steven Burky, prohibiting him from having contact with Garner for three years.
Law enforcement tells us Berky is currently under a 5150 psychiatric hold.
Under the permanent order, Burky must stay 100 yards away from Garner, Ben Affleck, daughter Violet, the nanny, housekeeper, and others.
He can't go near her home, the kid's school or her workplace.

Jennifer Garner has obtained a court order protecting herself from a man she believes is endangering her family.
TMZ has obtained docs ordering Steven Burky to stay clear of Garner -- no contact whatsoever.
In her declaration, Garner says "Mr. Burky has been stalking and harassing me," sending "packages and letters containing delusional and paranoid thoughts and following me around the country ..."
Garner says Burky has been harassing her since 2002, but in the last year "his obsessive and harassing behavior has escalated to the point of becoming dangerous and threatening."
Garner says Burky has shown up at her home and said, "God has sent him a vision of her being persecuted in some manner that may result in her death."
Garner says she fears for herself, husband Ben Affleck and daughter Violet. She also says "I am currently pregnant and fear for the safety of my second child once born."
Burky has written a blog called Satanic Panic, asking, "Are multitudes of adults resorting to human sacrifices and then repressing this information from fear of Christ..."
A judge issued a temporary restraining order earlier this month. There's a hearing tomorrow to make the order permanent.
Garner's security guy, Dennis Bridwell, also submitted a declaration in which he said Burky described himself as a "crazed Alias fan," once finding her at an event, giving her roses and a card that read "I love you forever" along with his contact information. Bridwell says Burky has stalked Garner around the country, adding, "Mr. Burky now represents a clear threat to Ms. Garner's life."
We've learned the LAPD has taken the threat seriously and has been involved in the case.
Law enforcement sources tell us Burky is currently under a 5150 psychiatric hold.

Although it was daddy Ben Affleck who dropped her off at school on Wednesday, cute little Violet couldn't get enough of her mommy Jennifer Garner.
While Violet looked a little sad, hopefully it wasn't because Ben was promising to show her one of his films.

Dang mommy! What's going on with your feet?
A week after being snapped with her mangled foot, Jennifer Garner's pinky toe looked almost right while out with daughter Violet on Wednesday.
