Jennifer Lopez And Ben Affleck Kissed With Their Masks On At The Met Gala

September 14, 2021 / Posted by:

Jennifer Lopez is probably never going to win that Oscar, and if she does, I hope it’s for something really stupid like a sequel to Jersey Girl called Jersey Woman. But she does deserve something special for all her hard work! JLo is out here working harder than a coal miner with 17 mouths to feed (or gig worker with 2 kids trying to make rent in 2021, adjusted for inflation). In the past couple of weeks alone, JLo has been to Italy TWICE and made an appearance at the MTV VMAs. Yet she still made time to thumb her nose at Ben Affleck’s ex-girlfriend Ana de Armas by recreating one of BenAna’s iconic pap stroll looks from the Spring 2020 COVID collection. Kissing with masks on. Thank god JLo has almost certainly gotten Ben to switch to a vape pen because I am forever haunted by those pictures of him smoking with his mask on. Because you know JLo’s not about to rub her moneymaker all over some dirty ashtray.

Though you wouldn’t know from looking at most of the guests, the theme from last night’s Met Gala was “In America: A Lexicon of Fashion,” and JLo was spot on in custom Ralph Lauren for Westworld. Ben was also on theme in a RL tuxedo.  According to People:

Hot off their Internet-breaking appearance at the Venice Film Festival, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck marked another relationship milestone — their first Met Gala!

The couple didn’t shy away from showing their affection for one another at the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute Gala on Monday.

While Affleck let Lopez own the spotlight solo on the red carpet, he quickly joined her inside the event, where the couple shared kisses through their masks.

They also wore the same designer. Both stars adhered to the event’s In America: A Lexicon of Fashion theme, with Affleck keeping it simple in a Ralph Lauren tuxedo and Lopez bringing her signature glam to the carpet in a custom, dark brown Ralph Lauren gown with a plunging neckline and thigh-high slit. The dress featured a Couture bustier, crystal embroidery, braided leather trim, and took a team of fifteen artisans over twelve days to create, according to the brand.

I mean, what’s more American than a man putting forth a fraction of the effort for the same amount of praise? Here they are testing the limits of safer sex practices in the era of COVID.

And #NeverForget, JLo may have The Stamina, but Ana had The Vision.

And here’s the details of Jennifer’s look which I really love, from the hammered silver necklace to the leatherwork, right down to the tiny pearl handled rose gold pepper-box pistol I imagine she has tucked under her left boob.

Wait! Sorry, right boob. She’s left-handed so when she goes for it, she’s got to reach across.
