The latest on ‘Bennifer’ blues as JLO and Ben Afleck rumors spiral
Fox News contributor Joe Concha joins ‘Fox & Friends Weekend’ for the pop culture roundup.
Jennifer Lopez stepped out in style for the premiere of "Unstoppable," the movie she worked on with ex Ben Affleck, but the Oscar-winning actor was a no-show.
Lopez, 55, who starred in the biographical sports drama film produced by Affleck, 52, turned heads when she walked the red carpet at the 2024 Toronto International Film Festival Friday.
The "On the Floor" hitmaker dazzled in a daring metallic silver gown tied up at the sides with black velvet bows and paired with silver platform stiletto heels and a matching silver clutch bag.
Meanwhile, Affleck was spotted Friday wearing a dark blue suit and sunglasses while strolling through the garage of a building in Los Angeles.

"Unstoppable" marked the most recent big-screen collaboration for the former couple, who previously starred alongside one another in "Gigli" (2003) and "Jersey Girl" (2004).
The movie, which tells the inspiring story of Anthony Robles, a wrestler born with one leg, was produced by Artists Equity, the production company Affleck co-founded with Matt Damon, and stars Lopez as Robles' mother.
Jharrel Jerome plays the lead role of Robles in "Unstoppable," which also stars Bobby Cannavale and Don Cheadle.
