Lady in red: Jennifer Lopez makes sure all eyes are on her at stepdaughter Seraphina's play in LA with Ben Affleck... but doesn't interact with his low-key ex Jennifer Garner
- 11 months ago
Jennifer Lopez put on a red hot show as she joined her husband Ben Affleck and their blended family at his youngest daughter Seraphina's school play in Los Angeles on Saturday evening.
The 53-year-old Bronx native managed to upstage everyone involved by showing a lot of leg in a red-ruffled maxi-dress, matching purse, and patent leather platform heels.
The 50-year-old actor opted for basic black attire as Jennifer strolled behind him with her 15-year-old son Maximilian and a pal wearing a tiara.
Lopez shares Max and his fraternal twin Emme with her ex husband Marc Anthony.
The Mother producer-star was also seen chatting away to her eldest stepdaughter Violet, who towered over her despite wearing flat sneakers.
Affleck's ex wife Jennifer Garner also attended the performance, but her presence was decidedly more low key. The Alias star, 51, wore mom jeans, sneakers, a T-shirt and simple black jacket for her daughter's big night out.
While Lopez and Garner weren't seen interacting, the singer certainly seemed at ease with Affleck's children.
At one point, Lopez and the bespectacled 17-year-old affectionately wrapped their arms around each other in a show of just how close the blended family has become.
Seraphina - sporting a jean jacket and red cargo shorts - triumphantly emerged from the theater holding two bouquets for her performance.
Garner - who divorced Ben in 2018 after a decade of marriage - seemed equally excited to embrace Seraphina's gal pal, but there was no sign of their 11-year-old son Samuel.
On May 11, Lopez opened up about how guilty she feels about the attention her children receive just by their nepotistic association to celebrity.
'They didn't choose that. And I haven't talked to them a lot about this, but they have just started letting me know how people treat them,' Lopez told Audacy.
'So when they walk into the room, that's what people are thinking about. They're not seeing them for who they are. And I think that has to be a really hard thing for them. So I would love to have been able to protect them from that.'
The On My Way songstress continued: 'But also, I'm being judged. Everybody has to deal with being bullied. It doesn't matter who you are, you could get bullied. But being judged by people you don't even know in a way is I think really difficult for them to kind of grow up and be themselves.
