2023 was a pretty quiet year for Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez. They married in the summer of 2022 and they got a blitz of attention and media, then they just\u2026 focused on their work and figuring out their blended family. They\u2019ve made appearances on each other\u2019s red carpets and they\u2019ve done a few events together, but their marriage has not been pap stroll after pap stroll. They\u2019re older and wiser now – they know how to hide, they can insulate themselves with their money, and they\u2019re both more comfortable in themselves and in their relationship. Well, J.Lo has This Is Me\u2026 Now<\/em> coming out – an album and a short film – in February. To hype those projects, Jennifer chatted with Variety:<\/p>\n

\n

Jennifer Lopez admits not everyone in her camp initially supported the idea to document her romance with husband Ben Affleck in her upcoming \u201cThis Is Me\u2026 Now\u201d album and companion film.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs artists, we have to follow our heart and this is me following my heart and doing something that maybe everybody didn\u2019t think was the best idea, but I had to do it,\u201d Lopez tells me.<\/p>\n

Lopez is set to drop \u201cThis Is Me\u2026 Now,\u201d a new album that marks the 20th anniversary of \u201cThis Is Me\u2026Then,\u201d on Feb. 16. The Dave Meyers-directed companion short film will be released at the same time by Amazon MGM Studios.<\/p>\n

Sure, Lopez has some worries about putting her and Affleck\u2019s life in the spotlight because \u201cwe both have PTSD\u201d caused by the media scrutiny they endured back when they first dated, she said, \u201cbut we\u2019re older now. We\u2019re wiser. We also know what\u2019s important, what\u2019s really important in life, and it\u2019s not so much what other people think. It\u2019s about being true to who you are.\u201d<\/p>\n

Asked if the film is a scripted feature or doc, Lopez explained, \u201cYou have to see it and you\u2019ll have to experience it to understand it. That\u2019s why I call it a \u2018musical experience.\u2019 Because there\u2019s music, you can see it, you can hear it and then you\u2019ll get to live it.\u201d<\/p>\n

A recent teaser for the film included a clip of Lopez saying, \u201cWhen I was a little girl, when someone asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, my answer was always\u2026 in love.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

[From Variety]<\/p>\n

\u201cWe both have PTSD\u201d – I can see that, and they both went running in opposite directions for years after their split. I talked about this before, but when I watched J.Lo\u2019s Halftime<\/em> documentary, they included clips of the aggressively racist coverage of Bennifer 1.0 and it really was shocking to look back at it now. I lived through it and even I forgot how bad it was. Like, it was so normalized circa 2002-03, to refer to Jennifer as \u201cthe maid,\u201d or Ben\u2019s \u201cspicy senorita\u201d and no one was even doing dog-whistles, it was just blatantly vile sh-t. And I do think they\u2019re older and wiser now. Their \u201crevival\u201d love story is great.<\/p>\n
