Jennifer Lopez Once Had Harsh Words To Say About Ben Affleck's Ex Gwyneth Paltrow

By 1998, Gwyneth Paltrow was a serious actor who’d appeared in films such as “Emma,” “Great Expectations,” and “Shakespeare In Love. However, J.Lo didn’t understand the hype, basically amounting Paltrow’s résumé to nothing more than a waste of paper. “Tell me what she’s been in?” asked Lopez during her interview with MovieLine. “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.”

And while it’s true that Paltrow’s breakup with Brad Pitt the year prior did make major waves — a phenomenon she even questioned in ’98— she was also building a respectable acting career that wouldn’t be eclipsed by her controversial wellness brand for more than a decade. So what was Lopez’s deal with Paltrow? It was possibly the same deal she had with every other big name at the time: a superiority complex. However, the timing of Lopez’s thoughts on Paltrow raised an eyebrow or two. Paltrow started dating Ben Affleck in 1997 (the same year she and Pitt broke up), maintaining the relationship until 2000. Don’t chalk it up to jealousy, though. In ’98, Lopez was still married to her first husband, Ojani Noa, and wouldn’t meet Affleck for two more years. So it could all be one big ol’ coincidence. That said, it’d be super interesting to hear what Lopez thinks of Paltrow today.
