Somewhere on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck shared a steamy kiss that would rival any cowboy romance — and they didn’t even bother to peel off their masks first. While attending the 2021 Met Gala on Monday, J Lo wore a feathered Ralph Lauren dress and a matching face mask. Possibly seduced by her sleek cowboy hat, Ben couldn’t help but pull Jennifer in for a masked kiss in front of the cameras.
Ben and Jennifer made their first red carpet appearance as a couple since rekindling their romance in May at the Venice International Film Festival on Sept. 9. But it was in between flashing photographer snaps and checking to make sure their angles were spot-on that the couple truly made an impression with their passionate display of affection.
