Even Academy Award-winning actresses turn into a puddle when they meet Jennifer Lopez, as evidenced by Brie Larson’s reaction to crossing paths with the famed pop star on the red carpet of the Golden Globes over the weekend.
Larson, who already has an Oscar under her belt for her work in 2015’s Room, was nominated for Best Actress In A Mini-series or Motion Picture for TV for the AppleTV+ series Lessons In Chemistry.
In a video shared by Entertainment Tonight, Larson was on the verge of tears as Lopez walked by. Somewhat awkwardly Lopez largely breezed by Larson before she exclaimed “You mean so much to me!”
When J. Lo did stop to greet her, Larson explained that her performance in the 1997 film Selena made her want to be an actress.

2023 was a busy year for Larson, as she also starred in a duo of blockbuster films, The Marvels and Fast X, alongside Lessons In Chemistry.
While Lopez wasn’t nominated for any awards at this year’s Golden Globes, both she and her husband Ben Affleck were in attendance. Affleck, like he usually does, had a viral moment on his own when he plopped himself down next to BFF Matt Damon at the ceremony.
