When it comes to awkward questions from journalists, Jennifer Lopez is this year’s champion. She is constantly asked to comment on her divorce from Ben Affleck and her long-standing relationship with P. Diddy.
And so media representatives managed to find a new painful topic for the star. This is his age. The tense moments occurred during a Q&A session with Variety’s senior awards editor Clayton Davis during a screening of Unstoppable in Los Angeles.
Referring to the career of 55-year-old Lopez, Davis noted that the 30th anniversary of the 1997 biographical film Selena is approaching. In this movie, Jennifer started her acting career by successfully playing the role of the famous Latin American singer Selena Quintanilla. Then out of the blue he said, “You’ll be 60 by then, because that’s what it’s all about,” and Lopez said, “Wow!” he shouted.
The studio audience literally held its breath. Davis tried to make amends by saying he was only joking and would never speak to the star seriously in that tone.
Lopez tried to brush off the journalist’s comment by thanking her fans for supporting her for so long, adding: “It’s been an amazing journey and I honestly feel like the best is yet to come.”
Jennifer Lopez also said that as she got older, she became convinced that her roles required a deeper exploration of herself as a person and a creator.
However, social media users focused on the reporter’s problematic question. “I never asked the woman her age or made any comments. Interviewer – yes, “Not that old,” social media users write.
Lopez celebrated her 55th birthday this year. Despite the anniversary being in the middle of a showdown with Ben Affleck, the star threw a glittering celebration in which she appeared dressed as an empress.
