JENNIFER LOPEZ AND HER GYM BUDDY
Uh-oh. Jennifer Lopez just walked out of the Equinox gym in Bridgehampton, New York, with a guy who is definitely NOT Ben Affleck. What’s more, her workout partner has a very cute vintage car. But not to worry, he is Jen’s manager Benny Medina. Watts-born Benny is quite a character – a former music executive, he believes in “living large” and encourages J.Lo to do the same. Benny was the inspiration for, and creator of, the series Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. Jennifer did a photoshoot at my mid-century modern house a few years back, and Benny had the entire property searched by security guys before she arrived. He watched her every move, but he turned out to be friendly and entertaining. Jennifer never complained and cooperated with the photographer. She even thanked me personally before she left. We can’t help but wonder if Ben and Benny get along…
