Jennifer Lopez faces fresh allegations of diva behavior, adding more fuel to the fire as her career and personal life encounter significant turmoil. The 54-year-old pop star is under scrutiny for a peculiar rule reportedly enforced among her crew and limo drivers: no eye contact.
Sources reveal that Lopez demands her staff, including backstage workers and limo drivers, avoid eye contact with her at all costs. One user shared an account from a friend who worked backstage at one of Lopez’s concerts, saying, “All of the workers were strictly instructed: DO. NOT. LOOK. AT. MS. LOPEZ. There’s to be NO. EYE. CONTACT.” This sentiment was echoed by another individual who claimed workers at Mohegan Sun Casino received the same directive.
Even limo drivers allegedly fall under this stringent rule. An insider recounted, “Her limo drivers were instructed the same, they couldn’t even look at her in their rearview mirrors.” This eye contact ban extends beyond concerts and includes locations where Lopez films commercials and music videos. For instance, a Californian ski resort staff member was reportedly told to avoid eye contact while Lopez was filming a car commercial.
Jennifer Lopez’s reputation for demanding behavior is not new. Media personality Meghan McCain recently called Lopez a “deeply unpleasant person” on her podcast, “Citizen McCain”. McCain recalled an incident in 2019 when Lopez appeared on The View, accompanied by a massive entourage “larger than the President’s.” McCain emphasized the stark contrast between Lopez and other high-profile celebrities who have appeared on the show, noting that Lopez’s entourage and demands were excessive.
Podcaster LABellatini also shared a story on TikTok about Lopez stopping a production to remove an audio technician for making eye contact with her. LABellatini added, “I have 15 more stories like this.”
Lopez’s career has faced setbacks recently, including canceling her upcoming tour and rumors of marital issues with her husband, Ben Affleck. The recent allegations of her diva-like demands compound these challenges, painting a picture of a star struggling to maintain her public image amid growing criticism.
