Jennifer Lopez shared loving glances with her husband Ben Affleck at the premiere of her latest film.
The 54-year-old A-lister – who recently revealed the advice her man gave to her – had that look of love with the 51-year-old star as he supported her at the This Is Me… Now: A Love Story premiere in Los Angeles.
J-Lo showcased her dancer’s legs in a strapless black gown featuring a sheer maxi skirt.
The Waiting For Tonight hitmaker proved herself to be an astrology buff as the skirt featured shimmering silver detailings of all the star signs.
As the multihyphenate is a Leo herself – in addition to her husband Ben – no doubt that sign was front and center as it included the symbol along with an image of a lion.
The stunner also donned a pair of black high heels and completed the glam look with matching black arm sleeves.
Her brunette tresses were worn down as she showcased her looks with bold make-up topped off with smokey eye and shiny nude lip.
Jennifer matched her skirt with platinum diamond encrusted jewelry including large earrings and multiple rings on her fingers.
Ben looked dapper in a classic black suit with matching dress shoes and tie along with a crisp white dress shirt.
His short locks were combed to the side as he sported a beard.
Meanwhile Jennifer recently revealed that This Is Me… Now: A Love Story is one of three upcoming projects where Ben served as a bit of a muse to her.
She is famously releasing three projects about her famous search for love – an ambitious musical film entitled This Is Me… Now: A Love Story, her album This Is Me… Now, and a documentary chronicling the making of the film and record, The Greatest Love Story Never Told.
In a lengthy interview with Variety, it is revealed that Lopez had utilized love letters written by Affleck while brainstorming on her new album.
The documentary captures the moment Ben, 51, walks in on a group of writers combing through the collection of letters. For inspiration, Jennifer provided her colleagues with the letters, a collection of writings Affleck had named ‘The Greatest Love Story Never Told’.
Variety reports Affleck appeared ‘taken aback’ when he saw that the letters had been presented to his wife’s colleagues.
‘I did really find the beauty and the poetry and the irony in the fact that it’s the greatest love story never told. If you’re making a record about it, that seems kind of like telling it,’ Ben told the camera.
Jennifer and Ben famously rekindled their romance 18 years after calling off their engagement in 2003. They wound up tying the knot in Las Vegas and again in Georgia in 2022.
The Oscar-winning filmmaker offered his wife plenty of guidance as she made her film, one which she financed herself.
‘He realized this was a surrealistic, fantastical journey that we were making,’ she explained.
Jennifer was advised by her spouse to keep the movie ‘really tight’, as she was contributing her own money to the project.
She recalled how her husband explained the filmmaking process to her: ‘Ben told me, “You’re gonna write it, and then you’re going to film it,”‘ she remembered.
‘When you’re done, you’re going to do a rough cut, and you’re gonna see what it needs, and you’re gonna do three days of reshoots.” That’s when I said, “I can’t do that — I don’t have any more money!” But he was like, “You’re going to do a few days of reshoots, and then you’re going to go back in and edit it. And you’re going to tell your story.”‘
Affleck was shown the final cut of the film last year and praised his wife’s filmmaking efforts.
‘He said, “You made a movie. For you. You made a great movie. You did it,”‘ she recalled.
‘Honestly, I don’t care what happens now. That is the biggest kind of compliment that I could get,’ she said.
Jennifer and Ben were not the only big stars at the event as America Ferrara, Becky G, Xochitl Gomez, Fat Joe, and Montana Tucker were all in attendance.
America was ravishing in a red floor-length gown as her raven colored bob was worn down and make-up was complete with a swipe of bright crimson lip.
Becky showcased her fantastic figure in a shimmering silver suit with the jacket open to reveal her matching bralette.
The singer donned her raven-colored tresses down as she showcased her natural looks with complementary make-up.
This Is Me… Now: A Love Story is set for release on Amazon Prime Video this Friday, February 16.
