Ben Affleck is getting flack for taking the Live Below the Line Challenge that he tweeted about back in April. Ben assured everyone through on blog on The Huffington Post that he, along with some celebrity friends, aren't taking the challenge for the wrong reasons. Ben explains, "Today I engage in the minor act of eating rice and beans to do my tiny part. I encourage others to do whatever they can, however minimal."
