Jennifer Lopez has always been front and center when it comes to her iconic, years-long career, but this time, it’s all about her discovery to self-love and her best relationship she’s been working on for years: with herself.
Jenny from the block is baring it all on-screen with her new cinematic musical experience This Is Me…Now which will have an album coincide around its release of the same name. The project serves as follow-up to her third studio album This Is Me…Then and her ninth album overall.
Out contributor Ty Cole sat down with Jennifer Lopez ahead of This Is Me...Now’s release where they discussed her superpowers, to which the 54-year-old shared “staying calm.”
“I really is a superpower because when everyone is freaking out, I can stay calm,” Lopez said.
In the cinematic experience, the common theme is love. Lopez also opened up about her relationship with love now after trial and error and tells Out once you love your flaws and all, you can do anything.
“I think sometimes when we’re looking at ourselves, we don’t have the self-awareness that we need or we lie to ourselves a bit, make believe, or push things away,” she said.
“If you can really sit and see your patterns, where you fall short, here’s where I’m amazing, here’s where I’m strong and where you’re scarred and love that person, you can do anything.”
Ben Affleck is apart of the experience as a writer and when asked what made her trust her husband, she shared there’s “nobody in my life I trust more than him.”
“He has no agenda when it comes to me,” she began.
“It’s not like he works for me or how your family wants things – he has his own thing and I have mine. If I say something to him, even if it bothers him, there’s a reason and vice versa. I don’t argue it but I’m receptive. That trust is what makes it great and run things by him when it comes to this project. Nobody understands that story more than he does,”
This Is Me...Now is now streaming on Prime Video.
