BA looks miserable and I hope he isn't still drinking.

I find it disturbing she is so close to a mom who beat her and I know how complicated abuse is-mine was just verbally and emotionally abusive.

Bear her how?

I also don’t know why people need to pick apart her Ben relationship. He’s obviously a guy with some issues and some talent—seems like she’s keeping him basically on track, which is an accomplishment. I think people read way too much into his facial expressions—I think he basically has RBF (men get to too! Jake Tapper always looks pissed off.). He seems like he is in on the joke about how miserable he looks and also about her fame/being in public eye. That actually makes me like him more. Maybe it will implode but every year he is sober is probably a good thing for him and his kids.

Their kids all seem totally normal to me. Many teens refuse to mug for the camera and many go through weird phases with their clothes or whatever. Good for J Lo and Ben for not forcing them into looking like little Mini Mes of tjem.

Thirty years ago if you had asked me to pick between Madonna and j Lo which would still be relevant in 2024, I would have said Madonna no contest. But Kadonna has become a joke. J Lo has done a much better job at understanding how to be a middle aged star and power broker. There’s only a handful of women that have done that.

Pretty much this. I’m not a JLo fan, but what’s evident is that she’s hard worker who loves her family. She doesn’t really seem to have any vices except for a bit of a “love addiction” and we’ll see where that goes with Affleck round 2.

Maybe it’s true, but her “work ethic” is mostly just her personal brand.

Yes, she is dedicated to herself and her personal brand but she excels at self promotion. Just her weddings create so much buzz for her. It's impressive to watch such mastery. Obviously, no denying that luck has been on her side for decades.

She isn't a gifted singer or actor and not a conventional Hollywood beauty, that's what makes her success so remarkable.

+1 Watched it (or tried to...fast forwarded a lot) last night and came here to see if anyone is commenting on it. I love J. Lo. She inspires me. She looks incredible. Great actress; good music. Works her ass off. But that new special she has...yuck. Looks like it cost tens of millions of dollars, too. Super boring an embarrassingly self-involved.

I have followed J Lo since she played Selena in the 1990s. I'm her age. I didn't know she was a dancer on In Living Color until she was already singer/actress famous.

I'm sure she feels the need to stay relevant now in her mid50s. She's doing great.

I hope she does what many other performers have done before her.

When it's time, she can pivot like Bette Midler and Rod Stewart and she can become more of a classic singer/performer.

I saw Sheila E perform, and she's still great in her 60s. I don't see why J Lo can't continue singing and performing however she wants as long as she has the fans.

I want J Lo to have longevity in her career as she continues to age. As a fan, I will continue to support her and not tear down another woman my age.

Plus, she's friends with Lisa Remini, who I also admire a lot for how she stood up to Scientology.

I saw her in ad on YouTube for hair growth serum. I was surprised. She doesn't need it. However, she's making the big bucks.

It's probably an adjustment for her to be attacked. I saw her in a live interview with Lisa Remini. And she talked about how social media made life in the public eye even tougher. Why? Agents can't control social media the way Old Hollywood Glam could control the press in the 1940s.

I'm the PP. I also adored her performance as an Italian American with Matthew McConaughey in The Wedding Planner.

Leah Remini
And last I heard they had a falling out a while back. I hope that isn't still true.

She can act. I don’t think there is any doubt of that. She hasn’t always chosen (or been given) the most serious roles, but she can act. I like her songs, but I know she’s not a great singer. But overall onstage with the great dancing and the decent singing, she’s a good performer.

So she’s good at her career. Looking good is a part of her career. She also has had successful fashion and beauty brands. Looking good is definitely good for those businesses. Do you “feel sad” for people who are good at their careers? Doctors and lawyers who put in insane hours, etc.? She’s dedicated.

I think she’s not just beautiful, she’s interesting, hard-working, and talented. I think the vanity projects are a bit much, but here we are, talking about her. If she bugs you, just turn away and focus on something else.

+1. Well said!

I think Leah didn’t condone the Ben marriage so she cut her off. Leah chose not to attend the wedding.

I think it was inappropriate of her to talk about the letters he supposedly. It's hard to get in this amazing love story when both were married with kids

I saw this as well. She basically talked about love letters between 2001 and 2010. They broke up in 2003 and he got together with Jen Garner and married and had kids starting in 2003. Very tacky - I’m sure John is 100% over it seems like coming out with that timeline is just JLO flaunting it.

I’m sure she will be shocked when he cheats on her though. So dumb.

Obviously meant I’m sure Jen G is over it.
