Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck Have ‘PTSD’ From Their First Romance, but Her ‘This Is Me… Now’ Movie Will Still Spotlight Their Relationship

Jennifer Lopez admits not everyone in her camp initially supported the idea to document her romance with husband Ben Affleck in her upcoming “This Is Me… Now” album and companion film.
“As artists, we have to follow our heart and this is me following my heart and doing something that maybe everybody didn’t think was the best idea, but I had to do it,” Lopez tells me.

Lopez is set to drop “This Is Me… Now,” a new album that marks the 20th anniversary of “This Is Me…Then,” on Feb. 16. The Dave Meyers-directed companion short film will be released at the same time by Amazon MGM Studios.

Sure, Lopez has some worries about putting her and Affleck’s life in the spotlight because “we both have PTSD” caused by the media scrutiny they endured back when they first dated, she said, “but we’re older now. We’re wiser. We also know what’s important, what’s really important in life, and it’s not so much what other people think. It’s about being true to who you are.”

Asked if the film is a scripted feature or doc, Lopez explained, “You have to see it and you’ll have to experience it to understand it. That’s why I call it a ‘musical experience.’ Because there’s music, you can see it, you can hear it and then you’ll get to live it.”

A recent teaser for the film included a clip of Lopez saying, “When I was a little girl, when someone asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, my answer was always… in love.”

It was almost a year ago when Lopez told me, at the premiere of her rom-com “Shotgun Wedding,” that she would love to act with Affleck again. They infamously co-starred in 2003’s “Gigli,” which bombed both with critics and at the box office. “We talk,” Lopez said at the time. “We love being together and working together so, yeah, you never know.”

Lopez and Affleck initially dated in the early 2000s. Bennifer, as they were often called, came to an end not long after they called off their wedding in 2003. The relationship was rekindled in 2021 before marrying in Las Vegas in 2022.

Lopez and Affleck’s most recent red carpet appearance took place on Dec. 5 in Hollywood when she was honored at Elle’s Women in Hollywood celebration.

Great Endorsement For Kari Lake – Here’s What Happened

Endorsing the MAGA brand is good business for Republicans who plan to have a future in elected office. Look no further than the Iatest endorsement coming Kari Lake’s way in her bid for a Arizona U.S. Senate seat.

On Wednesday Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) let The Daily Caller know that he is planning to issue a public endorsement of Lake later on Wednesday. Calling Lake his “teammate,” Sen.

Tuberville said the GOP conference needs more members Iike her if they are to oust Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) from the top spot next year.

If I Iearned anything from my 40 years of coaching football, it was the value of team work. And if I’ve learned anything during my time in the Senate, it’s that America needs more common-sense conservatives willing to go against the grain in Washington, D.C., and fight to take our freedoms back.

Kari Lake is just the teammate I need beside me in the United States Senate. That’s why she has my compIete endorsement, Tuberville told the Caller, referencing his legendary college football coaching career.

Lake, who launched her bid in October, didn’t wait long before accepting the endorsement and thanking Sen. Tuberville for standing with conservatives as she battles it out to win her party’s primary in August.
