JLo Banned ex-Husband Marc Anthony From Visiting Movie Sets
Throughout her movie career, Jennifer Lopez has shot many intimate scenes. And just like any other actor, she also had moments where she felt uncomfortable and therefore had to learn where to draw lines. Moreover, she also didn’t like the idea of her partner watching her engage in sensual and intimate scenes on movie sets.
In a past interview with Radio Free, Lopez revealed that while working on The Back-Up Plan (2010), she banned her ex-husband from the set. At the time, she had been married to her ex-husband Marc Anthony. And as she had to take part in intimate scenes with her co-star Alex O’Loughlin, Lopez did not want her partner to be around to watch that. She said,
“I didn’t want to torture the poor guy. He shouldn’t be watching when I’m seducing another man on a kitchen table”
While she naturally does not like to do such scenes, the singer has a way to prepare herself before getting into it. According to her, she carefully observes every shot the director was going for. And in that way, Lopez could easily carry out intimate scenes even if it felt awkward.
