A source said Jennifer Lopez and Jennifer Garner didn't pose together because they didn't want 'to create a fuss.'

"They get along, they are cool with each other, there are no issues," the source told a news outlet. "They don't want to drum up headlines by posing together at an awards show, that would be awkward. They don't want to create a fuss because it would be hard for the kids."

The 13 Going on 30 star debuted a lighter hair color when she donned a long black dress to the shindig, while the "If You Had My Love" crooner turned heads in a semi-sheer gown.

Another insider noted the two don't need a photo op to connect, spilling, "I am pretty sure they see each other like once a week because of the kids, and they talk on the phone. They are co-parenting in a way even though Lopez divorced Ben."

Garner and the Oscar winner share Violet, 20, Fin (née Seraphina) 17, and Samuel, 13, while Lopez has twins Max and Emme, 17, with ex-husband Marc Anthony.

"They are like one big modern family, which is nice," the source explained. "They have all been in solid therapy and understand the importance of getting along for the sake of the kids."
