Who is Jennifer Affleck? Ben Affleck’s cousin's ‘Jenny from the Block’ lip-sync goes viral

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Ben Affleck’s cousin Jennifer Affleck is causing a stir online as she boldly claimed she is the new 'Jenny from the Block' on TikTok. The attention-grabbing move comes at a particularly intriguing time, with the spotlight being on Ben and Jennifer Lopez’s divorce drama after two years of marriage. 

In addition to her viral TikTok antics, Jennifer Affleck is also making waves as a cast member in Hulu's upcoming series, 'The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives'. The internet is abuzz with speculation and excitement as Jennifer embraces her new identity, all while navigating her own reality TV journey.

Jennifer Affleck lip-syncs to Jennifer Lopez's hit song

In a TikTok video posted on September 1, Jennifer Affleck is seen at her co-star Jessi Ngatikaura's salon getting hair extensions while lip-syncing to Jennifer Lopez's 'Jenny From the Block'.

The 25-year-old playfully captioned the video with, “The new Jenny from the block,” with a winking emoji. 

Jennifer, who caught the eye of Ben and Casey Affleck’s second cousin Zac Affleck in 2019, has a history of humorously referencing her distant Affleck connections, reported People.

Shortly after Ben, who has three children with his ex Jennifer Garner, married Jennifer Lopez in 2022, Jennifer Affleck joked about her own familial link to the Affleck clan, saying, “Can’t forget that Ben Affleck is my husband’s second cousin.”

“When you thought you were going to be the next J.Lo, but instead she stole your name & you’re busting it down to Ms. Rachel,” the TikToker wrote alongside a video of herself dancing to 'Wheels on the Bus'.

Lopez, now legally known as Jennifer Lynn Affleck, has requested to revert to her original name, Jennifer Lynn Lopez, in her August 20 divorce filings. It is worth mentioning that Lopez, who remains unbothered amid the divorce proceedings with Ben, has 16-year-old twins Max and Emme with her ex Marc Anthony. 

Fans will learn more about the Mormon MomToker and the rest of the cast when 'The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives' premieres on Hulu on September 6.
