Spending 20 million dollars on a Bennifer documentary “This is me Now.. A Love Story” and calling it a must see because it’s the “greatest love Story never told” , and divorcing in the same year is pure entertainment gold.

She’s kept herself relevant for the next 10 years.

Nah society isn't kind to aging women who can't sell tickets anymore, for movies or for concerts. This will fuel a pathetic has-been narrative. I don't think she has the talent to reinvent herself successfully after all of this.

Talent? All she needs is another man . Narcissists like J Lo don’t hibernate and hide from shame and embarrassment. They move on from missteps like they never even happened.

Another man will be with her within a month of the breakup just like all her breakups.

What age-appropriate man could possibly meet her lofty requirements? Maybe she'll put on an act and try to convince she's moving forward easily but I think this one will hurt her badly and hit her very hard. Not just the relationship failure but the public shame and, maybe more importantly, the need to honestly confront the fact that everything she's told herself about their relationship, Affleck being the "one" who got away, was a delusional lie. It would be one thing if she could shore up her ego with some great professional success or other, but that seems unlikely to happen too.

Legal separation vs. taking a week or two apart to reflect are not necessarily the same thing. Time will tell.

Renting a new house = legal separation
Holing up in a hotel somewhere = taking a week or two apart to reflect

You're way too invested in this relationship and in your adoration of a selfish, witchy shrew.

Oh please I don't like her one bit, just think they may not be past the point of no return yet.

I don't see her giving up easily, but he might be done. I actually think he isn't being fair to her. He knew exactly what and who she was and married her anyway. Then cuts and runs? I think they're both @ssholes.

My guess is not only does he hate her lifestyle but he actually became embarrassed by all of her professional failures this year, especially since some were directly embarrassing to him. Everything she's done has flopped, and she's on track for a z-list movie career. So she works constantly, but for what? Drek. What would appeal to him about that?

This article in Variety is a must read. Divorce was in the cards months ago . Seems like Ben and everyone else in her life warned her about doing the movie and doc about their relationship .

https://variety.com/2024/film/features/jennifer-lopez-this-is-me-now-musical-film-ben-affleck-love-story-1235908364/amp/

In one scene in the doc, Ben walks into the studio and finds Jennifer showing her songwriters an assortment of love letters he wrote to her over the years. Ben isn’t happy or comfortable with this.


This is actually the worst type of hyperexposure to put on someone in recovery.

J Lo is such a mess.

She seemed to think her love and healthy lifestyle were enough to support his recovery. She doesn't seem to have put in any real work to understand more deeply how to support someone in recovery. Or to have given any thought to the fact that their sexy relationship was a classic endorphin rush for an adrenaline junkie but didn't offer the kind of stable and yes, private, foundation a person in recovery truly needs. Of course, he failed to understand that, too.

Did she show up to his kids event unannounced?? That's what it seems like. She purposefully got dropped off so Ben had to drive them back. DM said Ben drove back to Brentwood after dropping them off. What is it about Ben that's making her so....crazy? She dumped arod and that dancer fairly quickly after it came out they cheated. She's too old to be acting like this.

She showed up for the PR boost. He couldn't do much because she brought Emme with her.

Pyscho behavior. I bet JG was mad which is why we didn't see any pics of her. It must be his side going to people mag and leaking details. He's over it and wants it known. I do feel bad her for in the sense of losing him twice. She needs to stay single and do the work in herself

This will no doubt cause tension in Ben and Fin's relationship. They were so so close with Emme. My heart hurts for them.

Now that Lopez has edged up to what she calls "the bottom of the A-list of actresses." how does she view the women with whom she's been in contention for roles? Like, say, Salma Hayek? "We're in two different realms. She's a sexy bombshell and those are the kinds of roles she does. I do all kinds of different things. It makes me laugh when she says she got offered Selena, which was an outright lie. If that's what she does to get herself publicity, then that's her thing. Columbia offered me the choice of Fools Rush In or Anaconda, but I chose the fun B-movie because the Fools script wasn't strong enough." Cameron Diaz? "A lucky model who's been given a lot of opportunities I just wish she would have done more with. She's beautiful and has a great presence, though, and in My Best Friend's Wedding, I thought, 'When directed, she can be good.'" Gwyneth Paltrow? "Tell me what she's been in? I swear to God, I don't remember anything she was in. Some people get hot by association. I heard more about her and Brad Pitt than I ever heard about her work." Claire Danes? "A good actress. Her emotional and inner life are available to her, which is a good start. But I feel like I see a lot of the same thing with every character she does. She's not that way in U-Turn, though." Winona Ryder? "I was never a big fan of hers. In Hollywood she's revered, she gets nominated for Oscars, but I've never heard anyone in the public or among my friends say, 'Oh, I love her.' She's cute and talented, though, and I'd like her just for looking like my older sister, Leslie." Madonna? "Do I think she's a great performer? Yeah. Do I think she's a great actress? No. Acting is what I do, so I'm harder on people when they say, 'Oh, I can do that - I can act.' I'm like, 'Hey, don't spit on my craft.”

Wow.

Someone should tweet the link to the article.

Talk about a PR nightmare.

What an arrogant moron to talk about her colleagues like this. As if she's done anything impressive beyond the one George Clooney movie decades ago.

She had to send flowers and sorry notes to all these actresses . Gwyneth and Madonna famously hate her

I think she went into music because of this interview. Her agents probably told her she was finished in Hwood . This was her huge scandal before the nightclub arrest.

She was clearly not PR trained at this time and speaking to the interviewer as if they’re good friends speaking off the record .

Not PR trained? Most of us posting are not PR trained but I am pretty sure we knew not to be publicly catty even in our 20s.

I can't quite believe her trying to market their "great love" has imploded the marriage. Surely she will have to dump the project and pr now?

She'll need to shift to greatest hits anyway for her tour to have any chance of success.

Then add to that a marriage. Marriage is hard for non-celebrity couples. It is then harder if one is in recovery. But all that while under a celebrity microscope?! No thanks!

But they bring so much of this on themselves. There are so many people in entertainment, who want to have quiet lives and do. Michelle Williams is a hugely talented and in demand actress, people are endlessly curious about her because of her marriage to Heath ledger, she started on Dawson Creek, tons of reasons. But you never hear about her or rarely see sightings of her because she doesn’t want it that way.

Look at Scarlett Johansson. She is insanely famous. You see photos and videos of her when she’s promoting her movies or her skin care line, but she keeps her private life tight. Not a ton of candids of her out and about and no gossip about what she’s up to. Because she doesn’t want it that way.

If you ever see a very clear picture of a celebrity, not at an event or not posing, it usually means they have called the paparazzi. Many do and then complain they want privacy. They do not.

JLO courts so much of this and Ben is no better because he knew what he was getting into and wanted it. He strikes me someone who is deeply insecure and wants to be part of a famous couple. He desperately wants to show the people who ignored him in high school that he’s made it. He very strongly gives those vibes.

This article is insane. When I first saw clips of the documentary, I thought wow this is a person no one says no too. But clearly a lot of people did say no to her and she just pushed through.

I do feel bad for her. They are both not capable of moving past the honeymoon phase where you have to do the hard work of loving someone. I honestly don’t know where she goes from here. What an absolute s—t show. It’s time for her to start listening to people who care about her. Jane Fonda knows her stuff!

Holy shit. She really did attend unannounced to the school play lol.

Ben might need a restraining order . She’s losing it

I thought the tour was recently cancelled?

I really feel for Jennifer’s daughter. She’s using her daughters friendship with Bens kids to pry her way back with Ben.

[Anonymous]

I Can’t wait for the tell all.

She always weaponizes Emme’s emotional attachment to the kids after a breakup. “look what you’ve done to Emme”. She did this with A Rod as well.

Maybe she needs to examine why she makes men run away?

Ben wants the paps and attention when HE when he wants it. That's one thing he and JG had in common. They are perfectly fine with staged pics with paps they know on the day they choose. JLO wants it all the time. They were incompatible in this area and knew it from the start. JLO was ridiculous for the movie and documentary but Ben can and should've said no. It let it fester and I bet resents her for it.
