After twenty years of her breakup with Ben Affleck, Jennifer Lopez opens up about the feeling of parting ways. It was immensely painful for her, as much as she felt like dying.
The singer talked about her latest album, which is inspired by Affleck, and revealed what he said about the seemingly personal lyrics.
The Forthcoming Album
While talking about her upcoming album This Is Me… Now, a sequel to This Is Me… Then of 2002, the fifty-three-year-old singer explained the feeling to be incredible and amazing. She said she wants to capture the beautiful moment in time as it’s more excellent than the first time.
About Lopez and Ben

After Affleck and she were together for the second time, added the singer, he asked her why she didn’t perform in the songs of the album This is Me… Then, which were about him.
She said she tried hard and succeeded in moving on and surviving.
The album is so special to her because it captured the moment she fell in love. She cherished the moments of writing the songs and also said that she doesn’t thoroughly remember how she felt then.
What Happened then?
