Things seemed a little different for Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck, from the alleged feud between them and his ex-wife Jennifer Garner to their numerous visits to McDonald’s (even though Lopez is a known health fanatic). And body language expert Judi James claims that these latest escapades at McDonald’s have everything to do with Lopez trying to “impress” Affleck.
Speaking to the Mirror, she claimed that Lopez’s unpolished looks and paparazzi antics (like turning off the camera) were very unlike her usual public persona (and all for the sake of her being the co-author’s husband). from “Good Will Hunting”)!

“Usually Ben looks sullen at the paparazzi, but it seems that Jennifer here has captured or copied his mood, perhaps to impress him by showing him that he is not the only one in the marriage who looks like a rebellious teenager can,” she said.
She then added that the middle finger photo was reportedly a calculated move. “If her body language had indicated actual anger, the finger sign might have looked like a spontaneous error in anger,” she said. “But her facial expression here, with the slightly distorted smile, looks calm enough to suggest that the rude sign was intentional and perhaps part of her normal repertoire.”
