During the latest episode of the podcast, host Justin and Heather, tk, discussed a wide variety of topics, including Jennifer Lopez’s recent marriage to Ben Affleck.
The comedian joked: “I bet Jennifer Lopez was the biggest bridezilla.”
The Glee alum then chimed in with: “So, I have a funny story about, I think it’s Virgos,” adding, “It’s Virgo season. Let’s divulge.”
She went on: “Jennifer Lopez held an audition for dancers for one of her tours. This was years ago.”

The actress then revealed: “Most of the time, a dance audition, you’re not getting paid. You’ve been there since 10am and you’re auditioning until 6pm.
“So it was the end of the audition. They had just been through rounds of cuts. She wasn’t there the entire time. She came in the very last part of it to see the dancers that were left, meet everybody.”
Heather continued: “She walks in the room – I wasn’t there, so this is hearsay – She walks in the room and she said, ‘Thank you so much. You guys have worked so hard. By a show of hands, if there are any Virgos in the room, can you just raise your hands?
“So, a bunch of Virgos raise their hand –”
Justin interjected, joking: “And she shot them on sight!”
Heather laughed and went on with her story.
She said: “She whispered to her assistant. She looked at them and she said, ‘Thank you so much for coming,’ and they had to leave after a full day of auditioning for Jennifer Lopez.”
While Heather wasn’t present at the time, she said “multiple people” shared the same story.
FANS REACT
Following the release of the podcast, fans flocked to Twitter to react.
“A plantation wedding. Cutting Virgos from a dance casting/audition for simply existing. And my personal fave, not singing any of your own songs,” One Twitter user wrote.
“J.Lo. Babe. How you gon’ spin this, girl?”
Another, noting JLos own star sign, wrote: “I can’t stand j lo but this was such a leo move. This is also how I feel about most virgos lmaoooo.”
A third wrote: “J. Lo’s inner Leo jumped out and said ‘aht aht, not on my dime. Virgos can get the f**k out’.”
Someone else tweeted: “Cutting all the Virgos is the only way J.Lo can prevent another Beyoncé.”
Another Twitter user maintained: “As a July Leo myself I just want to say that I absolutely love and adore Virgos, J.Lo doesn’t speak for all of us.”
JLo and her husband Ben Affleck were slammed after tying the knot a second time at a plantation in Georgia.
WEDDED BLISS?
In photos from the big day, the celebrity couple smiled, kissed, and cuddled.
The lavish ceremony came about a month after the pair shocked fans by marrying in a quiet Las Vegas ceremony.
At their second wedding, the singer wore a bespoke Ralph Lauren white dress with a massive train and veil.
Ben wore a white tuxedo and black trousers.
The Batman star’s kids – whom he shares with ex-wife Jennifer Garner – played a part in the wedding along with JLo’s twins, whom she shares with ex-husband Marc Anthony.
The family walked down a long white carpet at the rear of a sprawling property which led to a seated area where the couple said their vows.
After saying I do, the pair made their way to a wooden dock in the grounds to take romantic photos.
Ben’s longtime friend Matt Damon attended the wedding along with other big stars, like Jane Fonda, George Clooney and Renee Zellweger.
There were also noticeable absences, like Ben’s brother Casey and his ex Jennifer.
The wedding also featured some unfortunate events as Ben’s mom suffered an injury at the wedding.
According to Daily Mail, “his mom, Christopher Anne Boldt, fell off their dock cutting her leg and was rushed in an ambulance for stitches.”
An ambulance was seen with its lights and sirens on at the estate.
The outlet revealed a rehearsal dinner took place on Friday followed the following day by the main celebration, and then a barbecue today.
ROMANTIC HISTORY
The couple’s relationship kicked off when they started dating back in 2002 after meeting on the set of their film, Gigli.
The two got engaged before calling it quits, however, they found their way back to each other shortly after JLo broke up with former-MLB star Alex “A-Rod” Rodriguez in April 2021.
