Jennifer Lopez gets roasted for being rude to reporter at 2024 Met Gala in now-viral video: ‘She seems like a bundle of joy’

Jennifer Lopez is being accused of being rude and dismissive toward a reporter at Monday’s Met Gala, where she served as one of the annual fashion event’s co-chair.

On Wednesday, USA Today reporter Anika Reed shared a TikTok video of the 54-year-old giving her a very curt response to her question, ‘Who are you wearing tonight?’ 

‘Schiaparelli,’ answered as she walked up the famous Met Gala steps, where she was being shouted at by more than 20 journalists on both sides of the carpet. 

Social media users were quick to call out the Let’s Get Loud hitmaker for speaking to the reporter like she was ‘peasant.’ 

‘The up & down stare is crazyyyy,’ one TikTok user wrote under the video. 

Another sarcastically remarked: ‘Social media users were quick to call out the Let’s Get Loud hitmaker for speaking to the reporter like she was ‘peasant.’ 

‘Her kindness radiates through the screen. I’m deaddd,’ a third joked. 

‘Eww why she have the attitude,’ a fourth asked. 

Other joked Lopez seemed like a ‘ray of sunshine’ and ‘bundle of joy.’ 

‘That’s our humble Jenny from the Block,’ another cracked, nodding the mother-of-two’s 2002 hit track, in which she sings about how she will never forget her roots despite her fame and wealth. 

Reed, the reporter, poked fun at the fleeting interaction in her caption as she wrote that Lopez ‘briefly told’ her about her custom Schiaparelli Haute Couture gown, designed by Daniel Roseberry. 

Lopez’s short reply may have been factored by her focus on trying to climb up the stairs in her restrictive gown, which ‘took more than 2.5 million silver-foil bugle beads and 800 hours of hand embroidery to make,’ according to Glamour.

She completed a silver, statement necklace with a matching diamond bracelet and massive ring — all from Tiffany & Co.

For the occasion, Lopez threw her brunette tresses into a chic topknot to showcase her flashy diamond earrings. 

Additionally, the star, who rocked a pair of strappy platform stilettos, carried a Tyler Ellis gold clutch. 

For makeup, the Marry Me star opted for a flattering, monochromatic brown makeup look with dramatic, full lashes.

She topped it all off with sheeny pink blush and a glossy nude lip.

Lopez served as co-chair for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute Benefit, along with Zendaya, Bad Bunny and Chris Hemsworth, as well as Vogue’s Anna Wintour. 

Her husband did not attend the Met Gala as he was busy filming The Accountant 2, a a sequel to his 2016 action thriller, in Los Angeles. 

Following the Met Gala, she embarked on a trip to Paris with her pal Loren Ridinger.
