Jennifer Lopez may have found her next move in the age-defying chess game she seems to be playing—and it involves none other than Kevin Costner.
The 55-year-old superstar is reportedly eyeing the 69-year-old ‘Yellowstone’ actor, not just as a romantic partner but as a strategic power play that could send a big middle finger to her ex, Ben Affleck.
Jennifer Lopez’s New Strategy: Finding Love in Aged Kevin Costner
Lopez and Costner recently crossed paths at a glittering Aspen bash, where their interactions didn’t go unnoticed.
Despite mingling with other guests, they kept finding themselves drawn back to one another, even enlisting friends to pass along flirty messages.
“Kevin would be a perfect partner for Jennifer,” one Hollywood insider said. “He’s well-connected in town and would open doors for her that even Ben didn’t have keys to.”
For Lopez, the appeal isn’t just Costner’s Hollywood clout, his seniority makes her feel youthful by comparison, a factor that’s reportedly more important to her now than ever.
After enduring comments about her age during a recent promotional event—remarks that hit a nerve despite her outward composure—sources say Lopez is more determined than ever to maintain her youthful image.
A source noted, “It’s not a laughing matter for her. Getting older is something she battles against every day.”
For Costner, the attraction is far from one-sided. Lopez’s beauty, talent, and substantial net worth of $150 million make her an appealing partner, especially as he recovers from his own setbacks, including a flop film project worth $38 million of his own money and a high-profile divorce.
“Nobody’s saying he’s looking at her as a romantic ATM, but he also knows that she’s looking for her own opportunities in film,” an insider said. “From his perspective, she’s beautiful, talented AND rich…so what could be wrong with that?”
Both stars, newly single and ready to mingle, may also see this potential pairing as the ultimate revenge on their respective exes.
“It will bother Ben big-time to learn how she’s moved on with an even bigger star than he is,” the insider said.
