Affleck shared some sweet words about Lopez, who was honored as Adweek's 2021 Brand Visionary.
Affleck, who has known Lopez for more than two decades, has seen her star rise, both as a musician and actor, as well as a businesswoman who grew her fashion and beauty businesses into a billion-dollar brand. Through it all, Affleck said he has admired the impact Lopez has made on the world.
"All I can tell you is that I have seen firsthand the difference representation makes because I have seen, over and over and over and over, women of color approach Jennifer and tell her what her example as a strong woman and a woman succeeding and demanding her fair share in the business world means to them," he said.
Even before Affleck and Lopez reunited, the Oscar winner always had nothing but nice comments to share about his former love.about Lopez and how he has always held her in high regard. "I thought I had a good work ethic, but I was completely humbled and blown away by what she was committed to doing day in and day out, the seriousness in which she took her work, the quiet and dedicated way she went about accomplishing her goals, and then how she would go back and redouble her efforts," he said.Kevin Mazur / Getty Images for The Met Museum
