Tensions seem to be high between Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck at present. Just the other day, the pair seemed to have a tense exchange at Jen’s first movie, Shotgun Wedding. It’s been speculated that the disagreement might have something to do with Affleck’s drinking habits after a video went viral of the singer looking appalled and angry after trying her husband’s drink at the red carpet event, possibly because it contained alcohol.
Fast forward a few weeks and the couple appear to be publicly starting over again, but this time at the Grammys. The couple made an appearance together at the music awards ceremony and during the show JLow was again caught scolding her husband.
At one point, the camera pans around and catches the two in the act, exchanging tense words with Lopez particularly severe.

After bringing in a professional lip reader, British tabloid The Daily Mail was able to find out exactly what was said between the two.
As Affleck whispers something in his wife’s ear, she looks at him and clearly irritated by his comment says: “Stop. Look friendlier. Look motivated” to which Affleck replied, “I could.”
The actor was clearly taken aback by his beloved’s reaction and looked at her puzzled. As a professional, Affleck quickly composed himself in the presence of a camera and acted as if nothing had happened.
The couple had been married for just six months, after rekindling a relationship that dates back to the early 2000s. They seem to be growing restless in the public eye, however. It remains to be seen if they can iron out the newly formed cracks in their relationship.
