"They were careless people, Tom and Daisy—they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness...and let other people clean up the mess they had made." This famous quote from F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby perfectly encapsulates the chaotic blend of public adoration and private turmoil that Ben Affleck and his family experienced in the glare of Jennifer Lopez's immense fame.

This surreal experience left Affleck and his kids stunned, highlighting the intense public adoration Lopez receives wherever she goes.
