That&#8217;s not how this works,'&#8221; Larson explained. &#8220;In my world, JLo is over there, and I&#8217;m on the other side of the TV, always.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Larson said she doesn&#8217;t &#8220;have any memory&#8221; of what she said after meeting Lopez, and when Kimmel asked how she felt the meeting went, she joked, &#8220;Oh I think [I] was kinda creepy.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Ultimately, however, the moment seemingly meant the world to Larson, who gushed, &#8220;It was very special. I didn&#8217;t need anything else after that.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The chance encounter also left an impression on Lopez, who <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.etonline.com\/jennifer-lopez-cries-as-she-talks-about-her-and-brie-larsons-viral-moment-at-the-golden-globes\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">got emotional reflecting on their meeting at the Golden Globes while speaking<\/a><span> with\u00a0Apple Music&#8217;s Zane Lowe back in January.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>&#8220;It brings tears to my eyes now because it&#8217;s very moving,&#8221; Lopez said. &#8220;You give your heart and soul to this, and when you&#8217;re an artist, I think you know that and understand that.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Lopez reflected on their meeting, and how Larson&#8217;s reaction reminded her of the women in Hollywood she has been inspired by.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>&#8220;I remember being a little girl and watching\u00a0<\/span><em><span>West Side Story<\/span><\/em><span>\u00a0and seeing Rita Moreno and knowing what that meant for me,&#8221; she added. &#8220;When I was looking at Brie and I saw her, and I was just staring in her eyes, because she was so locked in with me and just like, &#8216;I have wanted to tell you this for so long,&#8217; I saw myself. I saw a little girl.&#8221;\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>She added through tears, &#8220;And to think that I did that for somebody was really, really overwhelming. It was very lovely to have an experience like that. I don&#8217;t think I ever imagined I would have an experience like that with somebody who is so talented and who I watched their movies. Who is kinda in a way, my contemporary.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Lopez shared that the moment may be more special to her than Larson.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>&#8220;Even to feel that way, and to express that and to be so kind,&#8221; she said. &#8220;That was a very kind thing that she did. And it meant a lot to me. Probably even more than it did to her.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span>RELATED CONTENT:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.etonline.com\/brie-larson-explains-her-viral-reaction-to-meeting-jennifer-lopez-at-the-golden-globes-shes-like-my\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brie Larson says she doesn&rsquo;t really even remember the details when it came to meeting Jennifer Lopez on the red carpet at<br \/><button class=\"read-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/entertainment\/brie-larson-explains-her-viral-reaction-to-meeting-jennifer-lopez-at-the-golden-globes-shes-like-my-god\/06\/02\/2024\/\">Read More &rsaquo;<\/a><\/button><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":18604,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_titles_title":"","_seopress_titles_desc":"","_seopress_robots_index":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18602"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18602"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18602\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/18604"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18602"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18602"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18602"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
