Jennifer Lopez just put on a clinic in how to dodge an ex-related question with style, grace, and maybe a hint of “I’m not here for this today.”
The moment started when an interviewerβclearly feeling boldβasked JLo about a recent compliment Ben had given her. The man himself, Ben Affleck, had just called Jenniferβs performance in their upcoming film Unstoppable nothing less than βspectacular.β A sweet sentiment, right? But maybe a little awkward, given that heβs producing the movie and sheβs starring. Now, itβs easy to think this would be a friendly chat about mutual respect for the craft, but nope! Things took an unexpected, yet highly entertaining, turn.
When pressed to give her thoughts on Benβs producing skills, JLo clearly decided, βNot today, sir!β Instead of anything even remotely Ben-related, she gave a glowing, all-inclusive βshoutoutβ to the entire cast and crew, calling everyone βspectacular and wonderful.β She may as well have added, βThis conversation is overβ with a mic drop.
And hey, if youβre keeping tabs, youβll want to mark your calendars: Unstoppable will hit theaters December 6, and then mosey on over to Prime Video on January 16, 2025, just in time for those post-holiday streaming marathons.
For those new to this soap opera, hereβs a quick refresher. JLo and Ben, also known as βBennifer 2.0,β were married for about two years. But in a plot twist worthy of a rom-com sequel, JLo filed for divorce this summer on their wedding anniversary! Weβre not sure whatβs in the water over in Hollywood, but JLoβs sidestep game? Unstoppable.
