I can't imagine being sincerely in love yet spending so much time thinking about how it looks to others.

This again? Will she put the very same engagement ring on again? Will she make it down the aisle this time.

+1 Because that's who she is. She's very much about self and self image.

Also her image is her job so hard to blame her for caring.
She genuinely loves the guy. Love watching them and rooting for them🥰

“All I can tell you is that I have seen firsthand the difference representation makes because I have seen, over and over and over and over, women of color approach Jennifer and tell her what her example as a strong woman and a woman succeeding and demanding her fair share in the business world means to them,” notes actor/director Ben Affleck. “I am in awe of what Jennifer’s effect on the world is. At most, as an artist, I can make movies that move people. Jennifer has inspired a massive group of people to feel they have a seat at the table in this country. That is an effect few people throughout history have had, one I will never know and one I can only stand by and admire with respect.”

That’s a really substantive, thoughtful, nice thing too say.

Yeah, it's lovely and humble and true.

But she is not likely humble though...nor has she seemed particularly thoughtful and generous throughout much of her career...now at midlife she is perhaps starting to think beyond herself a bit (and that's a big maybe) . But there have been many people throughout recent history actually who have worked and inspired people to "have a seat at the table". And what table are we even talking about? The music industry? Opening doors to people who have been under represented in the arts? Does he mean she opened doors like Aretha Franklin, or Ella Fitzgerald or Tina Turner or Diana Ross? She's like RBG? As in her work, as a trailblazer under great opposition, actually impacted millions of people in real and sustained ways? Is she known for her ongoing,decades long philanthropy or attempts at raising consciousness like Oprah Winfrey? Or her moral courage to take a stand and speak about the lived realities of powerless women like Toni Morrison or Maya Angelou? She is not in the same league as any of these people. I don't know what he is talking about. Even Martha Stewart, a similar person who loves luxury, branding, money and the best of everything ....opened a thriving center to serve women's health at one of the major hospitals in Manhattan. So people approach jennifer lopez inspired by her talent and idealizing her beauty and financial success and power? That's called celebrity. If I am missing or unaware of any actual, human rights, civil rights or ongoing philanthropy spanning decades that Ms Lopez has created or sustained....her "good works" so to speak, or her trailblazing work that has contributed to real effects beyond her just passively being a "role model" by doing her thing (which is i think what he means). Please enlighten me, maybe I am really missing something.

It's interesting how in your long list, you didn't have a single Latinx woman. Which answers your question, I would think.

just "doing her thing" and being recognized for it means very different things to non-white women compared to white women, but I'm not sure pp (most likely a white lady) won't acknowledge that part.

NP, can you clarify? I’m not following the point the last two PPs are trying to drive home. (Genuinely curious, not arguing but also not understanding)

Anyone else relieved to have a break from these two? It was A LOT.

PP here. Happy for them but their actions and schedules show that their children are not a priority for either of them. I think that's very sad. Don't have children if you don't want to make them a priority.

I don’t like them but gotta admit they look so hot together like romance novel steamy.

There is no relationship, it’s all a publicity show.

Because they no longer know any other way to exist and the constant need for attention is addictive.
