Overview
- Cole Walliser said in a Jan. 18 Instagram/TikTok video that Jennifer Lopez was not rude during their Golden Globes Glambot exchange, adding, “I didn’t take it personally.”
- He explained the context, noting the carpet was closing, Lopez was preparing her move while facing away, and that Glambot stops are voluntary in a chaotic environment.
- Lopez has not issued a formal statement about the reaction but signaled support by leaving heart emojis on Walliser’s original post.
- People reported a resurfaced 2019 email thread in which Yinka Animashaun described Walliser’s replies about pricing for a private booking as unprofessional, citing messages that questioned her budget and referenced a $300,000 cost.
- Walliser did not respond to People’s request for comment on the 2019 exchange, with fresh social posts — including another user’s similar claim reported by Pedestrian.TV — driving continued scrutiny of his conduct.
