Jennifer Lopez is one of the most popular actresses in the world, so much so that even her relationship with her husband Ben Affleck was adversely affected by her fame. She is known for many movies and one of these is Money Train which was released in 1995 and was directed by Joseph Ruben.

Lopez hasn’t been known to be too shy about keeping things real and often gives everyone an insight into how things work in the Hollywood entertainment industry. She also doesn’t hesitate in calling out people who get with her on the wrong foot. So, obviously, when her Money Train co-star Wesley Snipes gave her a hard time during the shooting, she made sure that it was all out there.

It’s very common for actors to start dating after playing each other’s love interests in movies or TV shows. However, Jennifer Lopez most certainly didn’t want to get involved with her Money Train co-star Wesley Snipes as she said:

“He would invite us all out together and then at the end of the night, he’d drop me off last and try to kiss me. I’d be like, ‘Wesley, please, I’m not interested in you like that.’ He got really upset about it. His ego was really bruised. He wouldn’t talk to me for two months.”

Lopez also said that it’s pretty normal for actors to flirt on set while filming but Snipes had made it a little too serious, not to mention that the Mother actress was in a committed relationship at the time. In 2017, the actress also said that filming the s-x scene was a horrible experience for her and that she had been pressured into doing it by Snipes.

Jennifer Lopez ventured into the entertainment industry in 1989 and landed her first acting job in 1994. So, while she had done intimate scenes before, Money Train was the first movie in which she was going to shoot a whole love scene, and she was quite anxious about it. In a 1996 interview, she said: “I’ve done kissing, caressing, heavy petting, but I’d never done a love scene before, so I was very nervous about it.”
