Everyone is talking about Jennifer Lopez, the expected Oscar nomination, her Super Bowl performance alongside Shakira, and her ability to be eternally young.
Finally, J.Lo is getting into something else: For a 1998 interview with Movieline that shows perhaps more honesty than some of her colleagues have.
A little context: The interview was conducted in 1998. Jennifer Lopez had just joined Anaconda and Selena. As well, the internet almost didn't exist then, while Twitter and Instagram didn't really exist.
So let's read what J.Lo thought about colleagues twenty years ago, when many of us were not yet born.
For Cameron Diaz
?A lucky role model who has given her many opportunities. I wish I had used them better. It is very beautiful and has a presence. When I saw 'My Best Friend's Wedding' I thought when she's a good director, she's a lady. ?
To Gwyneth Paltrow
?Tell me a movie of hers. I swear, I don't remember any of her work. Some people become famous simply because they associate with celebrities. I hear more about her and Brad Pitt than about her films. "
To Winona Ryder
?I have never been a huge fan of her. In Hollywood, he rises to the pedestal, is nominated for an Oscar, but in real life I've never heard anyone say 'Oh, I love Winona.' She's cute, talented, and I like that she's very much like my older sister, Leslie. "
For Madonna
?Do I find the performance very ladies? Yes. Do I look like a lady actress? No. acting is my specialty and I get tougher with people saying 'I can act.' I feel like they spit on my work. ?
Wow, Jen. Can you talk to us about someone you like? Or don't you like anyone?
