Jennifer Lopez and Ralph Fiennes had a heartwarming reunion at the Variety Creative Impact Awards in Palm Springs. Fiennes presented Lopez with the Legend and Groundbreakers Award, delivering a touching speech that referenced their iconic roles in the 2002 rom-com 'Maid in Manhattan'.
The duo had a Maid in Manhattan reunion on Saturday, January 4, at the Parker Palm Springs for the Variety Creative Impact Awards , where Lopez, 55, was honored with the Legend and Groundbreakers Award. The pair posed for photos together after Fiennes, 62, presented his former costar with the honor while sharing a touching speech about her career.
He continued: “This wannabe Republican senator was struck by her good looks, but he couldn’t quite truly see her. This maid was masking something in her demure and mindful way. She was sweet and charming, but actually, she was concealing something. She was hiding a kind of superpower. Behind this maid’s mask, there was indeed a force, a force of creativity, a force of action, something so powerful which just couldn’t stop.
“But in this life, in this story, she has already been flying with determination from an early age, because I think she knows that she has something inside her which she must honor as she flies high,” Fiennes said. “She is honoring and fulfilling her extraordinary creative spirit, and sharing it, shining a light on the lives of so many people, inspiring them and brightening their days.”“Her powerful energy just leaves the men sort of just left behind, and off she goes.
While accepting her Variety award, Lopez said she didn’t “set out to break rules or ground or push boundaries or to challenge the status quo.”“I set out to follow a burning passion against the advice of everyone around me,” she explained on Saturday. “How do you do what I wanted to do when your life circumstances, your race, or even your gender create an idea that it’s practically impossible to go from a tenement in the Bronx to starring in Hollywood movies? It’s just too preposterous to fathom.
