Jennifer Lopez denied rumors of an affair with Brett Goldstein in an interview with Savannah Guthrie.
According to a June 2, 2026, TODAY report, Jennifer Lopez appeared with Brett Goldstein and Savannah Guthrie. They were promoting the Netflix film "Office Romance," which opens June 5. Goldstein said the project began as an "old-fashioned romantic comedy." He recalled casting Lopez and saying, "Obviously, J.Lo." The "Ted Lasso" star said she received one blunt remark: "If you don't do it, we're not going to make it." Lopez said her family loved "Ted Lasso." She recalled thinking, "Did he write this for me?" She then called the film "very funny" and "very romantic.".
Meanwhile, after airing a clip from Lopez's show "Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen," Guthrie shifted gears to discussing their chemistry. In it, Lopez named Goldstein her favorite on-screen kissing partner, saying, "He was the best kisser." Guthrie then said people wondered "if that chemistry could be real." Lopez responded that she'd always been linked to her co-stars. The actress said she'd "never seen a time" where she'd been spotted with someone without rumors of an affair. Goldstein joked, "If you stand next to her, that's what happens." When Guthrie countered, he added a second joke: "That's why I was standing so close the whole time.".
However, Guthrie persisted and told Lopez, "That's not an answer." The Selena star responded that it was. She then revealed that she had also been linked to Kevin Costner. Lopez replied, "That happens all the time." Guthrie then asked if they were dating in real life. Lopez replied, "We're not," and Goldstein replied, "Right." In Office Romance, Lopez played airline CEO Jacqueline Cruz. Goldstein played Daniel, the company's lawyer. This work-related storyline prompted her to ask the question on air.
