In a surprising and unusual moment, Marc Anthony referred to Jennifer Lopez’s voice as an “ashtray” during a conversation that left fans both puzzled and amused.

The singer, who was once married to Lopez and shares two children with her, was discussing her distinctive vocal style when he made the offbeat comment. He quickly clarified his remark, explaining that he was referring to the raspy, smoky quality in Lopez’s voice that gives it a raw, emotional edge.

Anthony meant it as a quirky compliment, praising the unique texture that has made Lopez a musical icon. Though the comparison seemed odd at first, fans of the former couple recognized the playful dynamic between the two and knew it was all in good humor.
