Just know: I was going to include more people into this post, but then I saw that Jennifer Lopez did a costume change in between the actual Golden Globes ceremony and the after-parties, and that made me stop and say: “Okay, let’s give her what she wants – the spotlight!” So here you go, a post devoted solely to Jennifer Lopez and her poor boy-toy, Casper Smart.
Casper is officially making it through his second awards season! Remember, he was J.Lo’s Oscar date last year, and God knows, she’ll probably be invited to present this year and Casper were be on the Oscar red carpet, rubbing elbows with Jessica Chastain and George Clooney. You’d think that he would have realized the situation by now: he better propose to her fast!! I can’t believe it hasn’t happened yet.
But what’s worse than seeing Casper on the red carpet of the Golden Globes is seeing Jennifer Lopez’s try-hard. Sure, she had a few good moments – like her little bit with Tina Fey, which was super-cute. But mostly it felt like… “Ugh, Jennifer Lopez is trying to get attention.” Maybe it was about Ben Affleck, her ex- lover? I honestly forgot about the Bennifer 1.0 Drama because there should have been more cutaways to J.Lo whenever Ben was mentioned. Then again, I don’t think Jennifer harbors any ill-will towards Ben –he’s the one ashamed of HER, not vice-versa.
Anyway, about the fashion… Jennifer’s wife gown is Zuhair Murad, a label which is increasingly taking cues from Marchesa in The Fug Department. I absolutely hated this gown. I did like the black gown she wore at the after-party, although she looks sort of like a zombie – super-tired, right?

I hated that white dress with a passion and thought it WAS Marchesa. No. No. No. She is beautiful and if she’d just stop dressing so tacky and try hard, it would be lovely
Agreed. The white dress was awful. I really liked the black one, though.
Ok. Forget about her dress. First of all – JLo was there because…
good question!
heeeeeeeeeeee certainly not because she was nominated for her stellar acting! Caspar the Ghost is so….gross.
That’s what I kept asking myself the entire night, why do they continue inviting her to these awards shows? I don’t get it.
…because she’s got a movie to pimp. It’s the same reason Jason Statham was there. I can’t remember what the move is called (and I don’t care enough to look it up), but it comes out soon-ish. I’ve seen previews in theater.
Agreed, the dress is just horrid. And her face has an extraterrestrial look to it, was she abducted by some horny ET, who decided to do an alien face job after having his way with her??? Payback, Casper!
Every time I see her I can tell she has tweaked something. Can’t always pinpoint what but she doesn’t look the same. I imagine she has a surgeon on speed dial.
They all tweak now, except for the very young ones. I thought Kate Hudson’s face looked frozen and I always loved her soft look before. Jennifer looks like she was escorted by her son.
Gofugyourself.com accurately described it as a naked lady who rolled around in snow. I would not be surprised if that actually was J.Lo’s inspiration for this hilarity.
I thought the white dress was sooooo desperate looking. She has done the semi-nude thing so many, many times. I thought the dress was ugly, and it seemed as if she chose it simply because it was so revealing.
I thought her make up was AWFUL. The highlighter in the middle of her nose looks like a big silver spot! Her make up was so heavy handed, it looked awful at the actual show…but then it appears she went and put MORE on before the after party! Not even a drag queen would wear that much make-up! BLECH.
My gaydar starts to ping a bit whenever I see Casper.
The eyebrows, the lips the teeth . . . maybe he’s a very high maintenence metrosexual…?
I couldn’t agree more, he’s also super gross I don;t know what she finds attractive in him.
Casper, The Mouth Breather.
Gaydar pinging! Exactly what I was going to write. Yes in stills this dress looks a bit ridiculous. In video she looks ravishing and charming, have to give it to her
I think that may be JLo’s influence. Remember how pretty, shiny, and pink Ben Affleck became when they were together?
Ben was shiny and bronze. I nearly fell over when I saw him all glazed up like a ham.
He was so dark, from tanning, spray tan, bronzer and body bling it was disgusting! lol But so funny. I am sure he cringes when he thinks of that time and award season hahaha
LOL I remember that. He looked nutz. She makes ’em shiny.
To be fair, we don’t know this ratboy. But I smell something too. I used to work in the industry and I’m fully aware of some who like to play it straight to get some shine or money. Ask Christina Aguilera about it.
look him up on youtube. they have interviewed him a few times here and there .. he’s the gayest thing since streisand
Damn, her face is a mess in that black dress. That make-up looks like she spent the night drunk in a club and attempted to fix things during a cab ride.
And why does it piss me off that Casper is wearing that stupid white jacket with no tie? Like he wants to stand out amoung people who have actual jobs and titles that their girlfriends didn’t give them.
You’d think it would be part of Casper’s job description to inform her that she really needed to blot the sweat off her makeup. That’s bad 4 am face she’s got going there.
It’s J.Lo when is she NOT try hard? The lace dress was pretty good; she does have the body for it. I just can’t stand her duck face when she poses. I think it’s transferred over to baby douche face as well. o_O
I don’t hate the white dress, only someone like her could pull it off though. Way to much eyeliner IMO. And Casper appears to be wearing to much foundation? Bad, bad bear..
her make-up looks bad on the photo’s, but she actually looked pretty in the show
this isn’t the first time Casper dressed like a waiter to one of these events
The white is PATHETIC and so so so try hard. I was embarrassed for her, quite frankly.
Did you notice that when Ben won that she and Casper were among the last to sit down from the ovation? I don’t know why that tickled me so.
The black is lovely, but she should have done something about the eye make up. It looks like last call mascara with corpse pink lipstick.
I saw her standing up.
Jlo’s face looks off. I can’t put my finger on it but she looks super tweaked.
Don’t like either dress. Blah!
Yes, I agree – the bridge of her nose looks smushed in, almost like it’s trying to disappear into the middle of her face.
Perhaps it was just the lighting?? Or maybe something else. I read somewhere once about a ‘botox nose job’ where a skilled doctor can use botox to change the shape of the nose by paralyzing certain surrounding muscles. Maybe it was that.
I’d live to see her in something tailored. She has a great body but the whole Victoria’s seceret body stocking as evening wear thing is over. It s way more “stripper wedding” than award show.
^^^This.
I would have rather have seen her in the black dress on the red carpet.
Meh. didn’t Kim K. wear something like this recently? Never a good thing.
The white dress was about the exes: Diddy AND Affleck. Imagine the conversation between Affleck and Diddy if they were alone for a good 2 minutes after seeing her in that dress. I was begging, BEGGING for the camera to go to each of them when she was on stage…BEGGING!
I like her in it personally. She is one of the few that could pull off that type of dress…
Right! I wanted a cut to Jennifer Garner, desperately.
EXACTLY. Except I think it was mostly about the Whofleck, for sure.
I am not really a fan of her but she sure knows how to rock a dress. Both dresses are gorgeous and she looks great in them.
I agree. I think she looks great in both dresses. The makeup on the other hand is terrible, especially that pink lipstick in the black dress!
I feel like we’ve seen her in another version of that white dress years ago – havent we? Too much silver highlighter on her face last night. Too bad they don’t give us the gossip cutaways at awards shows.
Her dress looks like the “Ambiance, Store for Lovers” wedding night negligee.
They both look like a pair of assholes Him especially but also her trying to Big willie Styles at award shows that she aint getting nominated on
Blahahaha….Big Willie Style?!…lol
Everything about both looks just screams 2002. I just CAN’T with her.
Yes!
Do you think Casper had started puberty yet back in 2002?
I have never seen a Zuhair Murad dress I liked. All their stuff looks so trashy and cheap! What is this outfit? It’s horrible. I saw that last night and thought oh it must be Zuhair Murad! And I didn’t mean it as a compliment. Didn’t she wear something similar last year? I cannot believe she isn’t ashamed to take him to these type of things? I guess if Clooney can bring Keibler then JLO can bring Casper? Ha,
It was pretty much the same dress that Ms. South Carolina wore at the Miss America pageant the night before. And it pretty much read the same way. Ugh.
I like the white one.
Well, she is kinda scary on the last pic with try to hard face by sucking her cheeks in… Seriously she is pretty and when she genuinely smiles or laughs she looks amazing.
Also JLo and Casper bumped into Diddy, that pic is everywhere on the net, I wonder what Diddy told Casper when they met 😀
I saw that over at the DM, I really wanted to see a pic of Jlo and the Bennifer 2.0 That would have been fun, I could imagine Jen giving JLo the best bitch face ever.
I do wish she would get a good-looking guy for a change.
She has to be the prettiest one in the relationship. She doesn’t want ANY competition lol
Yes, her body is AMAZING…but enough with the sheer, nude, lace, sparkly stuff. Those jumpsuits that she wears during her concerts, now the dresses…move on to something else!! Besides, Britney did it the best a million years ago!
In her attempt to look sexy, she always come’s off as tacky and cheap.
In the black dress her makeup looks rediculous and caked on. The dress was an improvement on the white one. Casper is sooooo in the closet
Like the black dress… but her make up has an ‘out all night, morning after’ look to it.
Best shot of the night: JLo and her boy, er, man talking to DDL during the commercial break! I laughed out loud, for real.
Is boy toy wearing makeup to cover the neck tattoo? AHAHAHAHA
The lace dress looks like the dress worn by the villan in Ghostbusters.
There is no J.Lo, only Zool.
OMG thank you! That was awesome 😀
I didn’t like either dress. His white tux thing is disgusting to. Why don’t these two just go away.
Her face is looking beat in the closeups.
Why was she there?
She dresses for the same purpose these women tweak their faces but the results are always the same. She should market a line a fragrance by the name Desperation because she always reeks of it
Jennifer does have the body for this sort of dress but I think she’s getting to old for it. There are classier ways to flaunt what you got than this, especially at her age. But then again, class is not really her strength, right?
I wonder how awkward it must be for Ben Affleck, with his new persona of respectful director and family man, to be forever associated with this trainwreck of a woman. Oh, the bad partner decisions we make when we’re young.
I agree Lisa… she does have the body for it, but they (J-Lo AND the dresses) are getting old. She seems stuck in the styles she wore years ago, when they were sexy and fresh. Not so much anymore.
On your other point, I kind of don’t think it was awkward for Ben at all. It’s been many years since he made that mistake… and he had his lovely wife there to support him, looking classy and gorgeous. 😉
Seems like I’ve seen this look from her a hundred of times already.
+1 That’s exactly what I thought when I saw her.
I hated the white lace one, it looked so obvious and cheap to me, and I feel like she’s done that look before.
Black dress is a vast improvement.
He’s smart not to propose. String her along, and get venerated by her in the meantime. It’s a subtle shift in power, despite her being the more publicly powerful of the two. Also,she seems to love the thrill of the beginning, no matter who with, and then get quickly bored.
What if he proposed and she said no. Bye bye meal ticket.
She is a movie star with many critical and box-office hits under her couture belt. That’s why she was there. She may have had no big hits lately but so have most of the people there. She is still a movie star.
Many critical and box office hits?
Selena
Blood and Wine
U-Turn
Out of Sight
The Wedding Planner
Maid in Manhattan
Monster In Law
The Cell
All great movies!
The first 4 films listed by @Nev were adored by critics and have stood the test of time. The other 4 were box office gold. It’s infortunate that in later years her career has gone the way of Reece Witherspoon but she’s earned her place at the top table.
As for the rest of her persona…shrug. i just enjoy her in the same way i enjoy Mimi.
Jason Statham’s and Jennifer Lopez’s upcoming movie thriller, “Parker”
You mean movies like Gigli?
she made my worst list. she wore nearly the exact same dress, except in black, to music awards last year. and the nude part on this one, against the white, looked like really thick, obvious, gross pantyhose. come ON. and her makeup in both looks is a melty mess.
She just starting to show her age….and the ugly inside is working to the surface again….going have to go and have it botoxed and peeled off again……. Miss South Carolina looked a lot better in that Dress at the Miss America contest….
The white dress was AWFUL and so, so dated. It made me think of a “Gypsy Wedding” wedding dress.
The white dress is fine, if she can pull it off she can go for it (and i think she pulled it off). Can we take in how Casper wasnt wearing a tie? WTF?
She would look so much better with a MAN and not this man-child that quite frankly makes her look “older”. He looks like her son in that 5th photo.
This so much! I actually think she’s beautiful, and behind the tons of makeup and the stupid poses she has really aged well and she doesn’t look like she has tweaked too much.
She can pull both gowns off well, but I wish she would change it up a bit and move on from the skintight “nude-illusion” dresses.
What really bothers me is this Casper guy. They make a ridiculous couple. Imagine her with someone like Clooney. *sigh* (maybe just my love of Out of Sight speaking, but they were hot together.)
I’m surprised she could bring Casper the Friendly Golddigger with her. Usually, presenters don’t get a plus one for the Globes – only nominees. There’s a space crunch at the venue. Unless she got one of the studios etc that buy a table to give her a spot for him.
And I’d have sworn that gown was Marchesa. It’s hideous, and looked awful on her. Attention getting, yes, but not in a good way.
Haters hate. Ahahaaahaa! That’s what they do. She is Latina. She likes to play up the sexy, especially with a smack talking ex and his wife in the house. She’s hot and glamourous in the white dress. However, the black doesn’t support her mom breasts very well and her make-up looks atrocious.
As far as her BOY friend… she’s having her fun, but I think she needs a more mature man and a shoulder to lean on.
What could she possibly see in that boy doll? Last night was not her best. She appears to be over botoxed around the eyes.
Comes a point where it’s no longer necessary for a woman of a certain age to flaunt what she’s got just to prove she’s still got it.
But I had what she’s got when I was her age, hell, I’d have flaunted it too.
My first thought was why in the heck is SHE giving an award? The usual, she probably pushed or talked her way into being on stage, again, she has to be in the spotlight associated with top people, gag, she is so obnoxious….I’m sure that Ben could have had something to do with it or her connections with someone else, but to me, she is SO not in the same league with these people. She should NOT have been allowed to go on stage. Adding to all that, in her own right, she has almost no talent, either in singing or acting. She can take her little Casper and go off into the Sunset…
She is ridiclious… is that her bother?
Her dress was the same old thing,time to dress more elegant ,you are to old for this look.
ughhh this woman’s ego has reached epic proportions. What does she have to feel proud/famous about? I mean honestly…
Wow, she looks awful in both looks. I like her hair in the white dress though. But her makeup for both looks is awful. And I don’t like that white dress. At all.
And her boyfriend is so ugly. Yuck.
She looks beautiful in both dresses except for the makeup in the black dress. It looks as if she warned Casper not to smile with his usual big smile because he looks goofy.
Looks to me like she got her eyes done. At the very least. She does look beautiful though. She has always tended to wear her makeup shiny, but I agree it was out of hand by the time she was posing in the black dress.
OMG I LOOOOVE the white dress! It’s gorgeous and unique!
Her make up in the second set of pics is AWFUL.
The dress is ridiculous, try-hard and great- all at the same time.
This is actually one of the things I like about Jen Lopez. She is bold and sexy and would not play it safe.
Her hair and make-up is ALWAYS flawless.
I do not like that you wrote that Ben is ashamed of her, not the other way around.
Excuse me, but of the two, he was the one who cheated, gambled treated his “love” life” as part of his career and proved to be as lacking of any stamina and easy to influence.
He was the one trying to blame his bad acting/ career moves on their fame and public attention (i.e. on her basically).
I give her so much more credit than him as a woman.
I like the black dress, but what is going on with her face??? Is it just bad makeup? She does look like a zombie!
she had work done and looks terrible.
I wish she – and everyone – would stop wearing dresses like those. All I can think when I see them is “ice capades”.
The black one’s not bad, for her.
the embarrassment of this boy is demonstrated in these pictures
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2262082/Jennifer-Lopez-avoids-awkwardness-warmly-greets-ex-P-Diddy-Golden-Globes-party.html
What does he bring to the table??
Look at the pic of him laughing with Harvey??really???
SMH.
As Lainey says, JLO should be embarrassed by him. i am so embarrassed for her.
She looks like his mom!!! I hope she got him home before his curfew!
Poor Jen. She brought her sagging career, table cloth dress, and bald little troll doll to watch hot-like-fire Ben get awards while his perfect family watches.
That’s gotta hurt. *edited because I’m typing while giggling at Jen’s face of wax*
Yoo hoo, makeup people… JLO needs a powder pat down STAT! It looks like she’s melting.
Her boyfriend Casper reminds me of a younger Jon Cryer from Two and a Half Men. He looks like he could be his son.
I think the white washes her out! Not her best look, imo! 😛 Her boy toy always wears white,too? What;s up with that? LOL
At first I hated the white dress, but then I thought about Jennifer being a Leo. It’s just her look. She goes for what she likes and owns it. The Kristen Wiig sp? Post is all about how, “she couldn’t find her look last season, and now she looks like Jen. A.”
So, Jennifer Lopez is getting trashed for being true to her style, and just because it isn’t the same cookie cutter dress everyone else wore its automatically horrible/JLo trying hard.
The GG are nothing more than a chance for the studios to increase profits for their films in theaters and coming soon films. Hints why Jennifer Lopez was there…
Also, her second dress is a snooze fest, and isn’t that dissimilar from Kristen’s Michael Kors dress.
Just saying.
Sorry to come across as a Jenny from the block defender. She isn’t really my favorite, but she does know how to market. The Kardashians and all the other “entrepreneurs” in Hollywood would still be regular run-of-the mill rich girls if it hadn’t been for marketing geniuses like Jennifer.
To me she looks stiff and unhappy. She can be very pretty, charming, and ” glowy” when she’s on. She’s not on. And yes that white dress is fug.
Why is Jlo’s face melting and why is there a gardengnome next to her?
Ah.. questions, questions.
