Is Jennifer Lopez dating her 27-year-old ‘Boy Next Door’ costar, Ryan Guzman?

wenn22062381

Here are some more photos of Jennifer Lopez from Sunday night, at the Globes and at the post-Globes Weinstein party. As I mentioned yesterday, Jennifer’s date on Sunday was her costar in The Boy Next Door, Ryan Guzman. Ryan is 27 years old… although he could easily pass for a frat bro of 21. J.Lo is 45, but she could easily pass for a diva in her early or mid 30s (depending on the lighting). When I saw them on the carpet together, I thought it was just a business thing, because Jennifer is good at hustling for her projects, and there were TONS of commercials for The Boy Next Door during the E! red carpet and the Globes, and that’s called synergy, people. But Page Six says that Ryan and J.Lo might be happening for real?

Jennifer Lopez turned heads when she arrived at the Golden Globes with her 27-year-old “The Boy Next Door” co-star Ryan Guzman. But spies said they also left an after-party together after getting a little closer on a couch. Lopez, 45, walked the red carpet with Guzman and posed in an eye-popping dress before she presented an award at the Beverly Hilton with Jeremy Renner. But she then also partied with handsome Guzman once the awards were over.

Spies saw the pair at the Weinstein Co. and Netflix’s celebration amid a stream of stars that included Taylor Swift, Benedict Cumberbatch, Katie Holmes, Keira Knightley, Amy Adams, Dominic West, Elon Musk, Rita Ora, 50 Cent and Rosamund Pike.

As they sat on a couch together at the dark, clubby bash, a spy said, “At one point, Ryan moved back on the couch and then he put his arm around Jennifer.” And “they also left together.” J.Lo’s longtime manager, Benny Medina, was also with the pair.

J.Lo has recently denied rumors she’s back on with her former boy toy, Casper Smart, reportedly saying, “I’m single right now, [it’s] really great for me.”

Conveniently, in “The Boy Next Door,” Lopez stars as a divorcee who falls for a younger man, played by Guzman, but learns he has a dark past.

At the Weinstein party, guests swilled endless supplies of Moët & Chandon to wash down late-night Fatburgers and fries that were passed around.

So, what do you think? I’m kind of into it, which probably means it isn’t happening. Ryan Guzman is good-looking, clean cut, boyish handsome, polite and he isn’t looking to “choreograph” one of Jennifer’s music videos. Which means she’s probably not into him. But I’ll buy that they’re friends and they probably got along during filming, and they enjoyed partying with each other. Maybe that will lead to love?

Incidentally, I saw an interview with Jennifer on E! last week and she was listing the guys she really finds attractive these days, and it was like she was reading my mind: she listed Tom Hardy, David Gandy and some of those other hotter types. If she’s into that, then why does she waste her time on the Casper Smarts of the world?! Break the cycle, Jennifer. Date Ryan Guzman, then make a play for David Gandy (I’ve been telling her to date Gandy for a year now).

    I actually thought it was sweet of her to show him off at The Globes. He’s a young actor needing a leg up — they’re promoting a movie. It was nice of her to share the spotlight.

    • truthSF says:

      Yeah, their movie opens up this weekend or next, so they’re trying to promote it as much as possible. I doubt they’re banging

      P.s. No matter how hot they look together, this movie still looks like a turd.

    • Renee says:

      That is pretty decent of her. It’s quite generous and seems incongruous with her reputation…

      • NYer says:

        Do you mean her generosity is incongruous with her reputation? If so, I definitely agree. (If you mean her tendency to hook up with younger co-workers is at odds with her rep, then I’d argue with you.)

      • Renee says:

        @NYer

        Ha-ha, definitely was alluding to generosity being incongruous with her diva-like rep.

  2. perplexed says:

    I hate her make-up.

    • mimif says:

      She should try wearing a little bit more.

      • kri says:

        There is NO MORE! She is sephora on legs. I went to buy gloss yesterday and they said they were out of everything except for brushes, cause JLO sucked up all the cosmetics in the US getting ready for the GG’s.

      • mimif says:

        Ha. Yeah she’s starting to make Kim K. look at naturel.

      • LadyMTL says:

        Kri, I can’t stop laughing…”she sucked up all of the cosmetics” hahahaha. Maybe that’s why she supposedly looks like she’s in her early 30’s (??), because she’s wearing ten layers of spackle.

      • GoodNamesAllTaken says:

        You know what style I think would look really good on her? Something tight and sparkly and low cut with a high slit. Sort of Vegas show girl. I don’t know why she never wears anything like that.

      • Lurker says:

        You win, GNAT.

  3. Lindy79 says:

    How is she not aging and can I have her abs?!

    That’s all I’ve got

  4. Renee says:

    This would be fun if it were true!!!

    While he is still a bit too young for her, he is SO much better looking than Casper, he seems to have more than two brain cells to rub together, is taller than her, is not facially challenged, and seems to have some spark. Did I mention that he is kinda cute 🙂 I know that I am being superficial but it’s not as though JLo is some deep thinker who needs to be with the contemporary equivalent of Socrates. She just needs to get with someone who has stuff going on and can provide some eye candy but not upstage her and will treat her well. Better yet, if she could find someone with a bit more life experience she’d be cooking with fire.

  5. McKitten says:

    STAY AWAY FROM THE BLOKE!

  6. Gracie says:

    Don’t know; don’t care.

    • Albert says:

      Well you invested time in posting on her article, so by all logical reasons I think you do care. Be it in a positive or in your case a negative way. Ppl can’t be honest theses days xD

  7. smee says:

    It kind of looks like she’s wearing a sassy blue stewardess hat in the third pic!

    I was thinking “anyone but Casper!” but honestly, this guy is a little young and it’s a bit obvious to have a fling with your co-star……..

  8. mernymerlyn says:

    Why would she say she’s into older actors and then date a young one? Because she’s an actress and she is not going to tell media the truth.
    I kinda dig this too. She looks amazing and older men not only in Hollywood have been doing this for years.
    As long as she stays away from Casper.

  9. QQ says:

    Better than a cheating Background dancer with aspirations

    Or a cheating Gambler

    or a Cheating Dancing skeleton

    IF it’s even true HIT IT and QUIT IT

  10. Mean Hannah says:

    I have a soft spot for J. Lo and think she’s beautiful, great body, etc. She parlayed average dancing, a little spark, her looks and lots of ambition and hustle into a nice career for herself. She’s also not as terrible an actress as people make her out to be – and from my sister and her team who worked with her (business/marketing side of film), she was professional, prompt, and pleasant to deal with.

    That said, I thought she didn’t look that good at GG this year. The makeup was thick and terrible, her usual,open-mouth-sexy poses looked too try-hard, and for all her youthful good looks, she looks like his mother in the two photos from the arrival red carpet.

  11. minx says:

    He’s cute.
    She needs to tone down the eye makeup.

  12. perplexed says:

    He kind of looks like Jimmy Kimmel.

    Anybody is better than Casper. Being a spinster till you’re a hundred is better than being with Casper. Dealing with Aniston covers of “will she find love?” is better than being with Casper.

  13. kri says:

    God, I hope she has the brains to hop on that man. He’s gorgeous. I have a bad feeling that awful dancing Alfalfa looking mofo is still sliming around her, though.

  14. scout says:

    He looks good looking, kinda youngish Ben Affleck. She would gladly do him but don’t think he is willing..er…for a long term relationship anyway. JLo, show less skin girl, don’t try too hard.

    • Tig says:

      I saw the resemblance too- Bennifer 2.0! Seriously, I did think it was nice of her to get this guy front and center during her face time on the red carpet. I get its a movie, but she clearly is willing to share the spotlight. Her taste in men aside, I have never heard or read of her being mean-spirited or disrespectful.

  15. lmh says:

    I’m close to her age, I’ve been divorced for two years, I have two kids and if her dating life is anything like mine then younger is all you get. I can’t tell you how many younger guys 23-33 ask me out. This isn’t bragging, I swear, I have NO idea why this is the case and it’s quite surprising and believe me, I’m not at clubs and bars, we are talking the line at Starbucks. Maybe they grew up with movies where MILFS became a thing or maybe it’s Freudian, I’m not sure but it’s strange to say the least. It may sound awesome but it’s not. I finally bit and after I had a fling with a 25 year old (I live near Stanford University) my friends gave me whoot whoot, but it’s teetering on emotionally dangerous territory for someone like me who has never casually dated and has slept with so few men in my life. I didn’t exactly “fall” for him but he was attractive, smart, articulate, interesting, easy to talk, sexy, and…. er, 18 years younger than me. Thank god he graduated and moved away or who the hell knows how deep I would have gotten. I wish more men my age were interested or, more specifically, interesting but that isn’t the case. Men my age are either newly separated, going through a midlife crisis, or dating younger woman; I’m the last person they look at and quite frankly, they are not interesting to me as well, with their new sports cars and weird younger wardrobe trying to relive some lost youth. I thought I would meet a single dad at some point but nope, instead the two single dads (yes, that’s right two) that I know of around here are both liars and cheats and didn’t think twice about stepping out on their wives and kids for their selfish pleasures and well, nope…. I won’t go there. I don’t need that in my life. So if she is dealing with anything remotely similar and I’m guessing in Hollywood it’s much much worse, younger is what she gets. It’s not fulfilling, balanced, and it doesn’t fill you up emotionally so it kinda sucks.
    Thanks for letting me rant. It sucks out here!

    • Kiki says:

      Or maybe , you are an attractive woman, who is a deep thinker and men at a younger age probably loves that about you. I am in my early thirties and I have men as young as eighteen who ask me out on dates. And I am pretty smart and intelligent than most of theses twenty year old in my environment.

      With that being said, you only have one life to live, keep looking for the right one, and it is never to late for love.

    • perplexed says:

      Connie Britton was asked why she dates younger men, and I think she said this: “Because there are more of them.”

    • Oh I believe it. My mom has had a lot of college guys hit on her, and troll for some strange with her(when she recently did a year of college before her chemo)–and she has to back them away by saying she’s got kids their age, lol. And my mom’s not traditionally hot either, like JLo. I think some guys like confidence….

  16. Lau says:

    Isn’t he a dancer though? I think he acted in one of the “Step up” movies. So, technically… he could choreograph her music video, I guess.

    • Mimz says:

      He starred in the last two step ups but he isnt a pro. He learned to dance for the movies and he did pretty good, but i dont think he thinks hes a choreographer.

  17. CK says:

    Hopefully, maybe? At least, some good will come from “The Boy Next Door”, which should be called 21 Jump Street 3, because Ryan Guzman can not even pass for a high schooler with a rough life. Music, most movies and A.I. judging aside, I have a soft spot for J. Lo and would love to see her put a stop to the parade of horribles that has been her selection of men.

  18. jferber says:

    I believe that like Pharell, Jennifer is a vampire. I want to be one, too. I’d buy that book if anyone were writing it. At least, tell me what you think she’s doing to be perpetually 29. Chica is mad hot. Unfortunately, whatever it is, I know it involves tons of money.

  19. Yuck says:

    What happened to gay-boy? And honestly, who is really going to care?

  20. Valois says:

    She’d never date Gandy, because she would never share the spotlight with anyone. In terms of hotness, I mean.

  21. Jezi says:

    I wouldn’t mind these 2 together. He’s very handsome and seems humble.

  22. John says:

    As we expected from Jlo and her management are again starting rumors and lies just for publicity, this woman lives on publicity, why don’t the media put out the real news, like Jlo lost out on a major multiple million dollars Las Vegas Caesars Palace Coliseum performing contract to the new queen of Las Vegas, Mariah Carey, the same contract that Jlo was trying to get for the last year and know she was denied from the top official from the Cesar Palace Coliseum that JLo demands isn’t going to make financial sense for the venue, and so executives choose Mariah Carey as a replacement , now that’s real news.
