Jennifer Lopez's 'firm' comments to Ben Affleck at Grammys confirmed by lip reader

A lip reader has apparently confirmed what megastar Jennifer Lopez muttered to her actor beau Ben Affleck at the Grammys this week.

The newly married couple had prime front row sears at the star-studded event, and were on the lips of many celebrity watchers after their frosty exchanges.

The Hustlers star, 53, appeared to snap at her husband, 50, after he whispered something in her ear, reports the Mirror.

JLo was at the bash to present best pop vocal album to Harry Styles, but fans have accused the actress of laying into her beau before she went on stage.

Commenting on the now viral footage, a lip reader has suggested what she thinks the singer said to her husband as the world wonders what was up with Bennifer.

Apparently, Jennifer said to Ben: "Stop. Look more friendly. Look motivated."

The father-of-three, who looked annoyed by his wife's response, reportedly replied with: "I might," reports the Daily Mail.

In another shot taken from the night, JLo appears to be bored by her beau, turning away from him to look at her mobile phone.

However, when she realised the cameras were on her she sat upright and laughed studiously at host Trevor Noah's jokes.

After the incident, Jennifer gushed she always has the “the best time” with Ben as she shared snaps of the pair as they made their way into the 65th annual Grammy Awards. The Hollywood star posted a video montage on Instagram, which included clips and photos of the couple together.

The actress looked stunning wearing a dark blue ruffled Gucci gown and voluminous train while Ben looked dapper in his suit.

However, fans weren't buying their loved-up routine with many taking to Twitter after the awkward scene was captured.

One said: "Jennifer Garner at home eating popcorn like …. 'Girlllllll he’s your problem now'," wrote one follower – joking about Ben's famous ex-wife."

While another wrote: "The Grammy producers are so messy for this but I love it," said another. While a third penned: "HER FACE WHEH SHE SAW THE CAMERA LOL."

But other fans thought the whole thing had been blown out of proportion, with one saying: "All I see is a couple gossiping together lol! You guys are really digging for it to be more than that."

Another said: "This is why I don’t take pictures with my husband anymore."

While a third added: "He never seems to be enjoying himself or he’s just not photogenic. But I’m not having a second hand embarrassment moment."

The Mirror has contacted Jennifer and Ben's representatives for a comment.
