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.

Man Thinks He Found “Hornets” Nest In Attic – Turns Pale When He Realizes What’s Inside

It broke the monotony of James’s day to see Liam sobbing in the attic. He didn’t know that as he hurried to console his terrified son, a long-kept secret was about to be revealed in their house.

The narrative started in 2018 when deer harmed the family’s arborvitae trees. They saw something strange between the trees on the east side of the yard as they were getting ready to replace them. It was initially thought to be an electrical box, but it turned out to be far more confusing.

When landscapers arrived in May 2018 to take down the damaged trees, they found the metal box was not just any old fixture but the entrance to a giant hornet’s nest. Astonished by the size of the nest and its strange noises, which sounded like a struggling vehicle engine, James and Liam surmised that something important was hidden inside.

James summoned a hornet control professional; however, the specialist turned him down for the work after seeing the unusual hive in the attic. James called around to a few pest control companies, but was told to hold off until winter. James made the decision to act alone due to the deafening noise and deteriorating circumstances.

James put on protective gear and tried to take the nest down by himself. He got stung by hornets a lot and felt quite uncomfortable. In an effort to keep his family safe, Liam fearlessly put out a smoker to temporarily subdue the hornets, unintentionally exposing a shocking finding inside the nest.

Aware of Liam’s bravery but worried about his safety, James and his wife Emma had a falling out over the disturbing information.
