Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck led a stroll in Santa Monica, California, showcasing their in-sync style by coordinating in dark sweatshirts and denim. Of course, they each made the appearance their own, with Lopez tucking her black cashmere turtleneck into her high-rise wide-leg jeans' waistband. She made it a '70s moment' in tall espadrille wedges, oversize octagon frames with transparent lenses, and her Christian Dior book tote with an ethereal constellation embroidery. The 53-year-old multihyphenate piled on some chunky jewelry, including mixed metal rings, a chainlink watch, and stud earrings, tying her hair into a top knot and opting for light makeup with a nude manicure. Affleck, 50, complemented Lopez's tones in navy, layering a ribbed hoodie underneath a cardigan-style jacket, and showing off his own outfit with Nike trainers, if ever, a nod to Michael Jordan's fashion success following his relationship with the athletic brand. These outfits are actually quite normal for the married couple when they're off duty, although we did see them dress to the nines at the "Air" world premiere in Los Angeles on April 27, where Lopez opted for a neon green Antonio Grimaldi Couture gown with a sheer beaded bodice and Affleck opt for a midnight navy Thom Sweeney corduroy suit.

At the world premiere of Ben Affleck's latest film "Air," he had Jennifer Lopez's help. The pair attended the 27th March screening in Los Angeles and walked a red carpet that seemed to be a basketball court. Both celebrities arrived dressed to the nines for the occasion — Lopez dazzled in a half-crystal, half-neon Antonio Grimaldi gown, while Affleck opted for a navy corduroy Thom Sweeney jacket, and packed on the PDA when posing for the cameras. In a video recap Lopez posted on Instagram, Affleck is seen saying, "I love you" before leaning in to plant one of many kisses throughout the evening. Affleck is both the producer and actor of "Air," which centers on the sports brand Nike and basketball legend Michael Jordan's partnership. He took a moment to thank Lopez for his contribution to the production of the Amazon Studios. According to The Hollywood Reporter, "This has been a pleasure, and I want to just enjoy this moment for a second." "And I want to say that none of it will be possible" this business, this film, and tonight's joy, but without the love and kindness of my wife, who means more to me than anything in the world." I want to say thank you. I love you. To me, it means the world. You're amazing, you're fantastic, kind, stunning, and I adore you."

Michael Jordan's influence on fashion is evident now, with everyone from Mark Wahlberg to Rihanna rocking a pair of Jordans, but it was a major gamble for everybody concerned when Nike announced the agreement with the all-star actor to produce the shoes. The tale of how it happened is now being told in a new film directed by Ben Affleck titled "Air." Affleck also plays Phil Knight, with his best friend Matt Damon playing marketing executive Sonny Vaccaro and recently minted EGOT winner Viola Davis portraying Michael's mother, Deloris Jordan. This spring, Amazon Studios' "air" will be released around the world. "Air" represents the "incredible game-changing collaboration between a then-rookie Michael Jordan and Nike's fledgling basketball division, which has changed the face of sports and contemporary culture with the Air Jordan brand," a source tells Amazon. Knight, Vaccaro, and the remainder of Nike are described as "unconventional team with everything on the line" and Deloris as having "the uncompromising vision of a mother who knows the worth of her son's immense talent."

Meet Theo McFarland - the international basketball player from Samoa who is Saracens new star

Exclusive BY SIMON: Theo McFarland and his seven siblings were forced to make their own fun during their early years in Moamoa, Samoan. There was no satellite TV or internet access at the time. No one was able to buy boots and balls. They were surrounded by nature and lived off the land. 'We had a huge plot of property, so there was always something to do,' says Saracens' forward. We didn't have the funds for electronics, so we were climbing trees or playing in the river behind our house.' We'll go and catch prawns. If we'd rather use our hands, we'd make this tool with a rubber band that would catch them. So you can lift it up and go. My older brothers were really good at it. We'd be catching heaps. 'Take them home and cook them.' They grew bananas, mangoes, taro, yam, coconuts, and pawpawpaw. The siblings would walk hand in hand, no machinery, before spending hours on sports.
