In Reply to: Kevin, why Jennifer Lopez? posted by CC on January 05, 2003 at 12:05:09:
The whole "big star" thing doesn't really matter. I mean, Kevin Cast Ben, Damon, Joey, and Jason Lee before anyone knew who they were. To tell the truth, I thought Jason Lee was terrible in Chasing Amy the first time I saw it, then I saw Almost Famous, and just now watched Chasing Amy again, and now I think he was BETTER in Amy than in Famous. I REALLY do not like Lopez as an actress OR a musician. I saw The Cell for Tarsem and Maid in Manhattan for my GF. Since Kevin is a good writer, and doesn't allow any lee-way with his script, maybe this will be Lopez's First, Last, and hopefully only good movie. I'm gonna see it to represent da Bank, and support Kevin, not because Lopez is a "big star."
: My husband and I were just discussing your new movie Jersey Girl. We want to know why did you pick Jennifer Lopez to be in the movie? She is such a big star. It just doesn't seem right.
: Thanks
