Jennifer Lopez ordered her husband Ben Affleck to try harder during the Grammy Awards on Sunday night, yelling at the 50-year-old man and demanding he pretend to be having fun, in an embarrassing exchange caught on camera.
Lopez and Affleck, who often looks tense and angry when out in public, were seen exchanging tense words during the ceremony, just as host Trevor Noah sat down next to them.
“Stop,” Lopez tells him. ‘He seems friendlier. Look motivated.
Affleck replies, “I might.”
Affleck’s vacant expression and tear at the Grammy Awards went viral on social media.
The couple’s exchange was transcribed by a lip reader, commissioned by DailyMail.com.
It came after Affleck was caught on camera angrily confronting Lopez at the Jan. 18 premiere of his film, Shotgun Wedding.
Lopez looks on serenely as a red-faced Affleck challenges her. She refuses to respond to her aggressive stance, which seems to irritate him even more.
The tense exchange on Sunday began with Affleck, 50, whispering in his wife of six months’ ear, only for her to pull away and apparently yell at him back.
He frowns, straightens his vest and his posture, before they quickly realize it, it was caught on camera.
A cold-faced Lopez tried to hide the moment, though her husband wore a blank expression throughout the night.
TikTok users who saw the moment on the platform immediately flooded the comments section with their observations.
‘Jennifer Garner at home eating popcorn like… ‘Girlllllll he’s your problem now,’ one said.
“The Grammys producers are so hard on this but I love it,” wrote another.
“HIS FACE WHEN HE SAW THE CAMERA LOL,” another chimed in.
On Monday, Lopez gushed about Affleck, while posting highlights from his Grammy night.
“Always the best time with my love, my husband,” she captioned the post.
