Mindy Kaling ‘s proving the only topic more popular than the Democratic National Convention is Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez ‘s divorce … giving it a subtle shout-out during her speech.
The actress took the stage at the United Center in Chicago Wednesday night, representing her home state of Massachusetts at the DNC … where she called out another famous resident of the Bay State.

She quipped … “I couldn’t leave here without giving a shout-out to the amazing delegation from my home state, Massachusetts. I love you, Massachusetts! Everyone is always hating on us! But they just don’t get it! Go Sox! Go Jayson Tatum ! Ben Affleck, hang in there!”
As she continued, Mindy also added Dunkin’ Donuts — a favorite of Ben’s — is “the best coffee in the world.” Though, we’re not sure J Lo agrees … even if she did star in BA’s 2023 Super Bowl ad for the coffee company.
Mindy’s words of support come one day after TMZ broke the story … Jennifer filed for divorce from Ben on August 20 — which just so happened to be the 2nd anniversary of their star-studded ceremony in Georgia . The couple had previously gotten married in a Las Vegas ceremony on July 16 … before their Southern nuptials.
