The life of an actor or an actress is something that many people want to live like, but don’t really understand the nuances of as they don’t understand the sheer hard work and determination that goes into building yourself from the ground up. Jennifer Lopez, who is revered as one of the biggest names in entertainment has repeatedly proved that without the aforementioned traits, there will be no star in the industry.

But despite all of this, there are experiences that leave a bad taste in your mouth, especially when you are struggling to make a name for yourself, and not everyone is there with a positive intent toward you. One such experience that the singer shares with the world is about the time she had got her first big break in acting, and how her co-star made that horrible.

Jennifer Lopez Recalled The Time Wesley Snipes Made Her Uncomfortable During Intimate Scene

Everyone has to start from the bottom and make their way up to the top of their profession, and Hollywood is no exception. Therefore, after making an impact on the music industry, Platinum Record holder Jennifer Lopez was starting out in the film industry, where the first big-budget film that she received was alongside Blade star Wesley Snipes and Woody Harrelson in Money Train. Though this was supposed to be a learning experience, it turned out to be a nightmare for her as she was creeped out during her intimate scene with Snipes.

During the filming, there was a scene where both Lopez’s and Snipes’ characters had to engage in a love-making scene, and while it seemed to be ok at first from the Mother star, it soon turned into a very unpleasant experience as Snipes reportedly was being very aggressive and inconsiderate, borderline vulgar towards his co-star and their personal space. In the past, Lopez detailed this experience, saying:

“So we did it, and it was horrible. We were both completely naked, with nothing between us except a sock on his boner! I was so naïve then. Now I would have pillows and covers and whatever to prevent contact, but I didn’t know any better. So here’s this famous actor, basically humping my leg and pawing away at my bre*sts and kissing them. It was awful. I felt violated. I swore I’d never work with him again. He’s not done too well lately anyway… so maybe that’s karma!”
It was also reported that during the entire shooting schedule, the Demolition Man star was trying to get close to Lopez, trying to flirt with her on different occasions.

What Was Money Train About?

While the film may start off as a buddy cop flick, it soon turns into something more serious and grave. Money Train tells the story of Charlie, a transit cop who is a gambling addict and has a lot of debt that he needs to pay, while John is a model cop looking out for his foster family. Pressured under a load of crushing debt, Charlie decided to rob the train that transfers the Transit Authority’s daily proceeds, and John is left to make a choice whether to stop his friend or join him.
