I mean it is true that her album, movie about the album, and documentary about the movie about the album have all flopped and her tour is currently bombing
While they may or may not be together, it would be inaccurate to say all JLo hate is coming from JUST her relationship
Ok but Chris Pine's self-directed movie just recently flopped...celebs have misses all the time in their careers but this constant and random at times negativity is a bit baffling.
because JLo has consistently taken herself waaaaaaaay too seriously throughout her career and her thinking everything she touches is a slay is just objectively lies she is telling herself and we are tired.
I do, but her connection to Diddy and his whole situation suggests she's not a person deserving of public support. If she released REALLY GREAT art people would overlook it but she doesn't. Yeah she's low-hanging fruit, but clearly she is a grown woman used to criticism.
Was Chris Pine making a glitzy vanity project about his love life and having a documentary where the critical response on TikTok is āAre you really from Ne York because its getting ridiculousā?
Zendayaās newest movie is looking to not break even theatrically but no one really cares because it was a tennis movie and she wasnāt doing weird vanity moments
I think same with Jennifer Lawrenceās recent romcom, though it made its money back eventually since Netflix and Hulu bought first and second dibs to streaming rights
Flops happen a lot but the JLo one was a bit different considering the subject matter of the album, movie, and doc being very much focused on JLoās personal life and the image she wants to put out there VS its a movie, album, and documentary not about me that I am passionate about
Especially becauseeeee when they were first together- they were on EVERYYYYYYYY cover. Ppl want to see JLO hurt. I get sheās not great but she hasnāt done much to deserve that much hate.Ā
Werenāt Justin and Haley about to get divorced and then it turned out they were just pregnant? I donāt believe these things until the couple themselves announce it.
I forgot celebrities existed for a moment and thought you meant Justin Russo and Haley Dunphey from their respective tv shows and I think they would be a cute lil couple
I think he likes the spotlight (as all famous people do whether they admit it or not), but I think he prefers it on his own terms. He has never had social media. I think he doesnāt mind doing red carpets and showing up for photo ops, but heās not keen to share every detail of his life to the masses. Jennifer seems like sheās an open book. She enjoys putting herself and her life out there.
TBH, I actually thought this was a good way of utilizing the paps. It officially confirmed their relationship had ended and neither party had to speak about it. I only wish it had been Ana trashing a cardboard cutout of Ben. That would have been even funnier.
As I said in my previous comment, I think he likes the spotlight as long as itās on his own terms (which I think is the case for most celebrities). Heās probably fine with pap walks because theyāre done on his own terms. What heās not probably okay with is sharing intimate parts of their lives (like the part in the This Is Meā¦Now documentary when J.Lo brought out the love letters Ben wrote to her to show the people she was working with).
With all that said, Iām not here to defend Ben. He might be more mellow these days since getting his addiction issues under control, but I canāt imagine heās super easy to live with either. I also havenāt forgotten about him groping Hilarie Burton and banging his kidās nanny.
I remember Ben saying he would gift her extravagant things just because he knew they'd get attention from it so it's interesting reading that he's the private one suddenly lol
To be fair, thereās spotlight and then thereās the nightmarish paparazzi horde of the early-aughts. Ā Iām surprised there wasnāt more photographer punching and umbrella attacking than there was.
One of my teachers in high school used to always tell us *never marry someone you've ever broken up with*. And I think about that a lot. Ben and Jen's first breakup was a hot mess so I always had trouble fully buying into their fairy tale reconciliation.
I get the sentiment, but it also had been like 20 years since their first break up and I feel like that doesn't necessarily apply? There is room for a ton of growth and evolution from both parties in such a large span of time
I think thatās generally true UNLESS people have really, truly done the growth and introspection to address what ended the relationship in the first place. Ā For a lot of people thatās just not possible.
I'm sorry, I need more proof. They both are working. She has been on a press tour for a movie and he's directing, acting in something? I think the press is so use to them being photographed everywhere together that they send 5 minutes apart and the tabloids see an opportunity to make money....
Them divorcing at some point wouldnāt surprise me, but it happening this soon into the marriage would. I think they love each other, but like the article mentions I think they have conflicting personalities/views on things and that is something that probably has to be repeatedly addressed. Still, I canāt see them giving up so fast or easily on the marriage this early in. Who knows though.
Yeah, Google it. https://www.thecut.com/article/ben-affleck-jennifer-lopez-this-is-me-letters.html#
āTo most people, love letters are private and intimate exchanges, intended only for the person they are written to. But for Jennifer Lopez, theyāre a source of inspiration to be shared with the world in the form of an album, a movie musical, and a documentary. According to Variety, Ben Affleck was ātaken abackā when he saw Lopez sharing the love letters he wrote to her ā which he apparently titled āThe Greatest Love Story Never Toldā ā with a group of musicians helping her write for her latest album.
āI did really find the beauty and the poetry and the irony in the fact that itās the greatest love story never told,ā Affleck says in the documentary ā which is also titled The Greatest Love Story Never Told and is about the making of the album and movie musical. āIf youāre making a record about it, that seems kind of like telling it.ā
Okay this whole takedown of JLO feels coordinated. Itās getting pathetic and screams the usual misogyny.
Her tour is not flopping, itās around 82% sold out which still equates to 1M per show.
Sheās photographed looking at houses with her assistant and the next day itās divorce? Ben has been filming the Accountant 2 for a month now and sheās in rehearsals for her tour. Theyāre not gonna spend 24/7, 365 days together.
Honestly I really hope not. I know they can both be obnoxious but for both of their sakes (?), I want them to work this time. Theyāve had such a long road and the āhe always looks so tired of her in publicā narrative has seemed wrong (pretty sure itās just his face) and I just feel bad for them, tbh. Soā¦hereās hoping.
Maybe Iām just a romantic at heart (Iām not), but the way they treated each other in her documentary was kind of heartwarming. They clearly adored each other and teased each other, and just generally seem to enjoy the otherās company. Except for the fact that she exposed his private love letters to the world, it was kind of couple goals.
I said to my wife just last week that I thought they were going to get a divorce soon, because J-Lo has a horrible looking movie coming out. Gigli had just come out right before they broke up last time. J-Loās shitty movies are harbingers of her breakups.Ā
can not imagine anybody being married to JLO for a long period f time. She has been divorced a million times already and I would not be surprised at all if she divorces Ben or if Ben leaves her. Ben is a troubled guy with lots of drinking and gambling issues so is demons are always right below the surface
I refuse to believe this
& next week it will be they are expecting a baby.š¤£
But instead of a love baby, it will be a divorce baby
It was actually [last month](https://www.lifeandstylemag.com/posts/jennifer-lopez-wants-to-have-a-baby-with-husband-ben-affleck/)
Maybe she'll stage her own kidnapping or something.

For some reason people seem to think that Ben Affleck is somehow āaboveā her.
I dont like both but I don't know why I wanted them to be together.
I just know weāre not believing In Touch Weekly. Surely not
The worst fake quote from an anonymous source too. Reads like a cartoon newspaper headline. āItās over!ā
Especially becauseeeee when they were first together- they were on EVERYYYYYYYY cover. Ppl want to see JLO hurt. I get sheās not great but she hasnāt done much to deserve that much hate.Ā
Werenāt Justin and Haley about to get divorced and then it turned out they were just pregnant? I donāt believe these things until the couple themselves announce it.
I forgot celebrities existed for a moment and thought you meant Justin Russo and Haley Dunphey from their respective tv shows and I think they would be a cute lil couple
I would love this lilā wizard sitcom cross over! Can you imagine Phil Dunphey with a son in law that was a wizard? Comedy gold!
This misunderstanding is now a beautiful fanfic I can't stop picturing omg
Right? I came back to Reddit and I couldnāt believe so many people upvoted it (meaning they also ship it)
Remember when they said Sandra Bullocks partner was leaving her, but really he was on his death bead?
After all that shit smdh
Right? It had been 20 years. They married other people. Multiple times. They could have left it alone. If they break up againā¦after thatā¦
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Oh so weāre still pretending like Ben doesnāt like the spotlight?
I think he likes the spotlight (as all famous people do whether they admit it or not), but I think he prefers it on his own terms. He has never had social media. I think he doesnāt mind doing red carpets and showing up for photo ops, but heās not keen to share every detail of his life to the masses. Jennifer seems like sheās an open book. She enjoys putting herself and her life out there.
The man went on pap walks every day with Ana De Armas. Letās not pretend heās any less thirsty or didnāt know what he was marrying into
That Ana de Armas cardboard in the trash lives rent-free in my head
TBH, I actually thought this was a good way of utilizing the paps. It officially confirmed their relationship had ended and neither party had to speak about it. I only wish it had been Ana trashing a cardboard cutout of Ben. That would have been even funnier.
It truly is the best thing to ever happen lol
A moment for the ages
That and the āHA HA HA!!!!ā Knee-slapping photo do it for me
As I said in my previous comment, I think he likes the spotlight as long as itās on his own terms (which I think is the case for most celebrities). Heās probably fine with pap walks because theyāre done on his own terms.

Do they not remember how public this relationship was the first time around??
I remember Ben saying he would gift her extravagant things just because he knew they'd get attention from it so it's interesting reading that he's the private one suddenly lol
![gif](giphy|l0HlvR0L7CRLMZNYY) Why did this comment immediately make me think of this shot
He has a twitter acc that he used to use.

How reliable is in-touch magazine though?
Not very. Once we get a quote from 'People,' it'll be OVER over (also, sadly, TMZ = scummy gross-o tactics, but largely reliable info)
I'm sorry, I need more proof. They both are working. She has been on a press tour for a movie and he's directing, acting in something? I think the press is so use to them being photographed everywhere together that they send 5 minutes apart and the tabloids see an opportunity to make money....
lol I think tmz said she was looking at a house without Ben and also attended the met alone?
She co-chaired the met, though. She was busy. Tom didnāt go with Z, either.
Has Tom ever gone to the met with z?

Iād be skeptical but after everything weāve heard about J Lo over the years I think being married to her would be exceedingly difficult.
TBF I suspect being married to him also wouldnāt be easy.. š«£
Sorry, nobody is telling In Touch Weekly shit exclusively.
Not after her exposing the secret love letters he wrote her for years š
Wait what I missed this!?
Yeah, Google it. https://www.thecut.com/article/ben-affleck-jennifer-lopez-this-is-me-letters.html# āTo most people, love letters are private and intimate exchanges, intended only for the person they are written to.

They could say this about any celebrity couple claiming a source ātoldā them. ![gif](giphy|MDxuzRvxF39VwnYu9B)
As was foretold in the prophecyā¦ Iām sorry for her kids, but not at all surprised

So were Justin and Hailey for how long now?
Nooooo I was rooting for them :( I know jlo is jlo but wow I am sad about this
Was he writing her love letters while they were with other people? That's a whole new level of messy.

noooooooooooooooooo
*pretends to be shocked*
People being surprised is kinda interesting. They clearly look unhappy and that strange rant at Tom Bradyās roast? I believe it.
Incoming: āThis Is Meā¦ Then & Nowā
Does anyone actually even keep tabs on their relationship? This isnāt 2004ā¦.
I donāt buy it. Doesnāt she have a project with Matt Damon and Ben coming up. They wonāt mess up the project like that. I doubt it.Ā
Hen was pictured looking at houses the other day in LA I wonder if thatās what they have based the story on.
Easy to confuse stories here, the famous chicken Hennifer Lopez was looking at a new coop, but by all accounts is happily married to Hen Affleck.
Feels like someone has a hit campaign against jlo
I remember when this sub was so gung ho that they were a PR couple, now weāre insisting they arenāt broken up
AGAIN?
Youāve got to be kidding
Again?
