Jennifer Lopez appeared visibly irritated after being asked to lower her umbrella during the Stella McCartney show at Paris Fashion Week on Wednesday.
The 57-year-old star was seated in the front row of the outdoor catwalk beside British comedian and actress Diane Morgan, 50.
With heavy rain falling, event staff asked guests to put away their large umbrellas before the show began.
A woman seated behind Jennifer quietly passed on the instruction. Jennifer mouthed “Oh” but initially chose to leave her umbrella raised.
Her longtime bodyguard later held the umbrella above her while she used her phone.
Moments later, Jennifer looked frustrated when she was again asked to put it down, eventually handing the oversized umbrella to staff behind her.
The star had faced another inconvenience on arrival, discovering that her seat was wet. She waited as her bodyguard carefully dried it for her.
She had dressed impeccably for the event in a camel-coloured look, finished with a brown faux fur scarf and a chocolate brown dress.

Jennifer appeared downcast as the rain began to dampen her hair and designer outfit
A dark brown belt defined her waist, while brown leather pointed heels and a brown fur clutch completed the ensemble.
Her hair and make-up were carefully finished, leaving the superstar to face the downpour despite her famously polished appearance.
Jennifer was photographed with an empty seat beside her as she sat alongside Stella’s husband and creative consultant Alasdhair Willis, 56, and Diane, with little conversation between them.
The vacant place had been reserved for Vogue icon Anna Wintour, 76, who ultimately failed to appear.
Diane is best known for her roles in Motherland, Cunk On Life and Alan Partridge. Although highly successful in her own right, her place beside Jennifer made for an unexpected meeting of celebrity worlds.
Known for portraying ordinary, relatable women on screen, Diane looked equally stylish at the show in a grey pinstripe suit and blouse.
Jennifer looked visibly peeved as she sat in the rain — perhaps Anna Wintour had checked the weather forecast earlier and decided not to attend
It was an unlikely meeting of celebrity worlds as Diane and Jennifer sat just one seat apart
Diane known for her deadpan and deliberately awkward delivery, won hearts with her role as the relentlessly self-assured TV presenter Philomena Cunk
Perhaps the epitome of anti-glamour, it was a culture clash to spot the actress who plays Cunk sat mere metres away from the personification of Hollywood polish
Jennifer looked picture perfect before the show started
She wore her flame-hued locks up in a bun, while opting for a selection of chain necklaces and a slouchy leather bag to accessorise.
Diane is a prominent animal rights activist and vegan advocate which aligns with Stella’s luxury fashion brand which is strictly cruelty-free.
It has never used leather, fur, feathers, or exotic skins since the brand launched in 2001.
