Jennifer Lopez fans were taken aback at a screening of her latest film “Unstoppable” when an interviewer decided to bring up one of Hollywood’s biggest taboos: age.
Watch the video — J Lo was in LA on Sunday with Variety’s senior editor for the awards, Clayton Daviswho gushed about her 30 years in the business, joking that the 55-year-old had “made it” — a comment that didn’t sit well with some in the crowd.

You can hear someone off camera gasp, “Did he just say that?” — while others chuckled, apparently not thinking it was a big deal.
The comment on Clayton’s age was no coincidence, as Variety’s J Lo Career Retrospective was dedicated to celebrating her hard work from day one, all the way up to her current project, “Unstoppable.”
AJ Lo clearly didn’t take it personally, turning the comment into a victory and using it as the perfect sign to thank her fans for being so good to her over the years.
It’s worth noting that Jen was probably prepared for Clayton’s style of questioning, especially since he had already interviewed her for Variety’s Awards Circuit podcast last month. Also judging by how comfortable he was talking to her about age, it’s clear that they had developed a strong relationship before then.
