Jennifer Lopez breaks silence about first public appearance since Ben Affleck divorce

Jennifer Lopez, 55, revealed that the stunning gown she wore to the Unstoppable world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 6 was almost left at home.

In an interview with People magazine, Lopez shared that she had second thoughts about wearing the revealing, silver Tamara Ralph gown with head-to-toe side slits tied together with oversized bows.

"There was a discussion about whether I should or shouldn't. And I was like, f--- it," she laughed. Ultimately, she decided to wear the gown because "I felt good."

After walking the red carpet, Lopez gave fans a closer look at the show-stopping dress on Instagram, posting photos from several angles.

"Toronto #TIFF2024 #UnstoppableMovie," she captioned one post, followed by another simply captioned, "Unstoppable."

The Marry Me star paired the gown with a metallic Judith Leiber clutch, Hassanzadeh jewellery, and Dolce & Gabbana platforms.

The next day, Lopez returned to the festival in a more subdued, monochrome ensemble by Burberry, including the brand's Leather Saddle High Boots, an olive sweater, and a pleated maxi skirt with a high-knee slit.

The Dance Again singer accessorised the outfit with brown sunglasses, gold jewellery, and a snakeskin handbag.

On Instagram, she shared a sweet message about the Unstoppable premiere, which marked her first major public appearance since filing for divorce from husband Ben Affleck on August 20.

"Still on a high from last night at #TIFF2024! It was such an incredible experience being surrounded by so much talent and passion for #UnstoppableMovie," she captioned the post.

"Grateful for every moment and the amazing energy of the city."
