Jenny from the Block

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck met on the set of Gigli in 2002. The pair went public with their romance shortly thereafter and swiftly became one of the first celebrity couples to earn themselves a “portmanteau” moniker: Bennifer.

At right, the pair are seen on the set of Lopez’s music video for “Jenny from the Block” in October 2002.

She may be from the South Bronx, but that didn’t stop Lopez from becoming a Jersey Girl. In November 2002, Lopez and Affleck collaborated on the big screen in the movie of the same name, though her character doesn’t spend much time on screen.

That same month, Affleck proposed to Lopez with a 6.1-carat pink solitaire diamond from Harry Winston.

Lopez told Diane Sawyer at the time that Affleck’s proposal was “traditional, but also in a very spectacular way, as of course Ben would do it … it was very, very beautiful.”

Quite a Pair

Lopez told Sawyer of their pairing, “We’ve talked about this so many times, and we talked about how people kind of see him with … one type of person and me with another type of person, and the two of us together is like, ‘How did that happen?’ And how we’re probably more alike and from the same kind of background … same kind of upbringing and same kind of family and same kind of house.”

The premiere would be Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s last red carpet appearance as a couple.

In September 2003, just one day before their scheduled wedding date, the pair announced that they would be postponing their nuptials due to the media frenzy surrounding the event.

In a joint statement they said, “Due to the excessive media attention surrounding our wedding, we have decided to postpone the date. When we found ourselves seriously contemplating hiring three separate ‘decoy brides’ at three different locations, we realized that something was awry. We began to feel that the spirit of what should have been the happiest day of our lives could be compromised. We felt what should have been a joyful and sacred day could be spoiled for us, our families and our friends.”
