Jennifer Lopez on Her and Brie Larson’s Emotional Interaction at the Golden Globes: “It Meant a Lot to Me”

Jennifer Lopez is sharing how much she appreciated the “lovely” and “moving” interaction she had with Brie Larson at the 2024 Golden Globes.

In a recent interview with Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1, the actress-singer-dancer said, “It brings tears to my eyes now because it’s very, it’s very moving, because you do, you give your heart and soul to this when you’re an artist.”

Ahead of the awards ceremony on Sunday, Larson got emotional when she spotted the Hustlers actress on the red carpet — in a moment that went viral. As she attempted to hold back tears, the Lessons in Chemistry actress proceeded to tell Lopez why she’s such an inspiration to her: “I saw Selena and it made me want to be an actor. You’ve always meant so much to me. … It’s been a dream of mine [to meet you] so thank you so much! Your work ethic is so important, thank you.”

Lopez told Lowe that she completely understood The Marvels star’s feelings at that moment because she also had celebrities that she looked up to when she was younger.

“I remember being a little girl and watching West Side Story and seeing Rita Moreno and knowing what that meant for me,” The Mother star explained. “When I was looking at Brie and I saw her and I was staring in her eyes because she was so locked in with me and just [was] like, ‘I have wanted to tell you this for so long.’ … I saw myself, and I saw the little girl, and to think that I did that for somebody was really, really overwhelming.”

She continued, “I could have really taken a moment there, and it was very lovely to have an experience like that. I don’t think I ever imagined that I would have an experience like that with somebody who is so talented and who I watch their movies and who, is kind of in a way, my contemporary even. … It was a very kind thing that she did, and it meant a lot to me, probably even more than it did to her.”
