Jennifer Lopez’s Shocking Response When Asked Who She’d Save From Drowning – Ben Affleck or P Diddy
In a surprising twist during a light-hearted interview, Jennifer Lopez, the world-renowned singer, actress, and entrepreneur, was asked a rather bizarre question: “If you had to save one person from drowning, who would it be – your husband, Ben Affleck, or your former boyfriend, P Diddy?”
The question was posed during an appearance on a popular late-night talk show while promoting her latest film. The audience and even the host seemed taken aback by the boldness of the inquiry, and all eyes were on Lopez, eagerly awaiting her response.
Lopez, known for her sharp wit and ability to handle awkward situations with grace, took a brief pause before delivering her answer. With a sly smile, she quipped, “Well, I think they’re both strong swimmers, so maybe neither would need saving.”
Her playful response drew laughter from the audience and defused what could have been an awkward moment. She went on to add, “But in all seriousness, I’m really blessed to have great people in my life, past and present. They’ve both contributed to my journey in different ways, and I have nothing but respect for them.”
The interview quickly moved on to lighter topics, but social media exploded with reactions. Fans praised Lopez for her classy and diplomatic handling of the question, avoiding any potential drama between her current husband, actor Ben Affleck, and her former flame, music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs.
“J.Lo is the queen of deflecting drama,” one Twitter user commented. “Handled that like a pro.”
Others were amused by the audacity of the question itself. “Imagine being asked to choose between your current husband and your ex on national television!” another fan wrote.
Both Affleck and Diddy have yet to comment on the matter, and it’s unclear whether they’ll feel the need to. Lopez’s response seems to have effectively kept the peace between the two men, who both played significant roles in her life.
Lopez and Affleck, famously dubbed “Bennifer” in the early 2000s, rekindled their romance in 2021 and tied the knot in 2022. Their renewed relationship has been a focal point of media attention, especially given their previous engagement two decades earlier. Meanwhile, Lopez and Diddy dated in the late 1990s, during a highly publicized romance that eventually fizzled out but left both parties on seemingly good terms.
For now, fans of Lopez can breathe a sigh of relief – the singer avoided a media storm and kept the love between her past and present intact. As always, J.Lo proved she knows how to keep things cool under pressure.
