Jennifer Lopez & Gwyneth Paltrow Pose Together In Equally Stylish Looks At Recent Event After The Singer Once Dissed The Actress And Their Shared Romantic History With Ben Affleck

Gwyneth Paltrow And Jennifer Lopez Pose Together At Recent Event

The Oscar winner opted for a contrasting aesthetic, wearing a sleek white midi dress with a center-front slit, which she paired with striking red pumps for a pop of color.

Fans were surprised over the photo and shred their reactions on Reddit.

“Would you look at THAT. This photo speaks volumes. Both of these women were loves in long relationship with Ben Affleck,” wrote one user. Another asked, “Didn't J.Lo diss Gwyneth back in the day? Saying she was popular only for the men she dated?” A third said, “How many women are trauma bonded over Ben Affleck I need to know.” A fourth wrote, “I wonder if it’s at all weird for Ben to see two of his exes pose together lol.” 

The rumored feud between Jennifer and Gwyneth traces back to a 1998 Movieline interview, in which Lopez appeared to downplay Paltrow’s acting career. At the time, she remarked, “Tell me what she’s been in? I swear to God, I don’t remember anything she was in. Some people get hot by association. I heard more about her and Brad Pitt than I ever heard about her work.”

Jennifer Lopez And Gwyneth Paltrow End Long Feud

The comments resurfaced just a year later when Paltrow won an Oscar for Shakespeare in Love, making Lopez’s remarks seem even sharper in retrospect. Lopez later walked back the statements, saying she had been “so misquoted and so taken out of context.”

Adding to the long-running speculation, both women famously dated Ben Affleck—Paltrow in the late ’90s and Lopez in the early 2000s and again when she reunited with Affleck decades later—fueling persistent media comparisons and rivalry rumors.

However, any lingering tension appears to be in the past. According to Daily Mail, a source confirmed in November, “They are doing OK, they are friends. There is no frost, no bad vibes, they are good.”
