LOS ANGELES, Calif. – August 28, 2025– Actor Luis Guzmán, known for his role in Netflix’s “Wednesday,” sparked online buzz after describing his former co-star Jennifer Lopez with a single word—”Okay”—during an appearance on the popular YouTube series “Hot Ones.” The comment, part of a segment where Guzmán rated past collaborators, has fueled discussions about Lopez’s reputation in Hollywood amid persistent allegations of diva-like behavior.
Guzmán and Lopez famously co-starred in the 1998 crime comedy “Out of Sight,” directed by Steven Soderbergh and adapted from Elmore Leonard’s novel. The film, which grossed over $77 million worldwide, earned two Academy Award nominations for Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Film Editing. Lopez’s performance as federal marshal Karen Sisco garnered critical acclaim, including an ALMA Award for Outstanding Actress in a Feature Film.
The “Hot Ones” clip, shared by entertainment outlet Pop Crave on X, quickly went viral, amassing millions of views and thousands of reactions. While Guzmán praised other co-stars with glowing terms, his tepid assessment of Lopez stood out, prompting speculation about their on-set dynamic. Guzmán, conversely, is widely regarded in the industry for his positive reputation, often described as energetic and easy to work with by peers.
This incident comes at a challenging time for Lopez, who filed for divorce from actor Ben Affleck on August 20, 2024, after two years of marriage—marking her fourth divorce. In July 2025, during her “Up All Night” tour stop in Bilbao, Lopez playfully engaged with fans holding marriage proposal signs, showing a lighter side amid personal upheavals. However, reports from August 2025 detailed an awkward moment when Lopez was reportedly denied entry to a Chanel store in Paris, with sources noting her surprised yet composed reaction.
Lopez has faced ongoing scrutiny over her alleged demanding nature. Insider accounts claim she enforces strict rules on sets, such as all-white environments and a “no eye contact” policy for staff. Former “The View” co-host Meghan McCain once labeled Lopez as “deeply unpleasant,” citing her large entourage and demeanor during a guest appearance. Additionally, Lopez has encountered professional setbacks in 2025, including reported tensions with her record label and post-divorce career challenges.
Social media reactions to Guzmán’s comment ranged from amusement to defense, with some users highlighting Lopez’s history of similar criticisms while others praised Guzmán’s candor. The exchange has reignited broader conversations about celebrity egos and workplace dynamics in the entertainment industry, leaving fans to wonder if more stories from Lopez’s past collaborations will surface.
