JLO ONCE AGAIN
Becoming JLO wasn’t easy for 53 year-old Jennifer Lopez. Latin actress, singer, producer and entrepreneur Jennifer Lopez is one of us who thinks women become wiser and sexier as they get older. She is here to stay! In a recent interview she said that she intends to work until she is 80 or even 90!
Singer, actress and entrepreneur JLO and Ben Affleck got engaged in the early 2000’s, surprising everyone. Perhaps what surprised us even more was them getting together in 2021. This time, the duo made their vows of marriage in 2022. “I’m finally at a point where I’m living every part of my life with no regrets,” says Jennifer Lopez, 53. “I love every part of me. My body, my voice, the choices I made in life and even my mistakes… These are all the things that have made me who I am over time and brought me to where I am today. It made me realize my own value. “
Mother of Multiple Teens
The Lopez-Affleck couple has a total of five children between them. Lopez’s 15-year-old twins, Max and Emme, are from her ex-husband, Marc Anthony. Ben Affleck has three children with his ex-wife Jennifer Garner; 17-year-old Violet, 14-year-old Seraphina and 11-year-old Samuel. It is difficult to imagine JLO, who still has an extremely sexy image at the age of 53, as a mother of four teenagers and a pre-teen! She thinks it’s like surfing. In an interview she said: “I kind of feel like I’m walking on waves. It’s like surfing. Oh no, I just fell over. Now I’m back on my feet…”
According to Lopez, mothers go through a more difficult phase because teenagers always side with their fathers. Being the mother of multiple teenagers helped her understand her own mother better.
Becoming JLO
Jennifer Lopez’s life has been a constant struggle. Becoming JLO wasn’t easy. When she first came to Hollywood, being there was enough for her. But as time went on, as a Latino actress, she had to fight to get a role other than ‘the maid’ in a romantic comedy.
These days, she is working on a production about her own life story. Her company Nuyorican Productions, has produced many projects, including series such as ‘Hustlers’, the Netflix movie ‘The Mother’, ‘The Fosters’ and ‘Shades of Blue’. She is fighting in a real war to empower women.
“I want to do everything men do,” Lopez says. The autobiographical music album ‘This is Me…Now’, which is planned to be released in early 2024, is the sequel to 2002’s ‘This Is Me…Then’ and will be accompanied by a Prime Video movie.
When asked, Jennifer Lopez comments that 2024 will be busier than this year. “Wait and see,” says the famous actress.
According to her, we have entered a period in which women are becoming powerful in the entertainment industry. In the world of entertainment, women freely tell their own stories as they wish. “It’s a very exciting time for women in Hollywood, with amazing female producers, directors and actors taking more control over their careers and creating their own material. The groundwork for this had been in the works for a long time. But some things take time,” says Lopez.
‘Older’ Is Better
53-year-old Jennifer Lopez is of the opinion that getting older and gaining experience enriches a person. According to her, labeling women over 30 as old in the entertainment business is a thing of the past. “People have noticed that women become sexier as they get older. A person becomes wiser as she gets older. In other words, you gain beauty of wisdom as you get older.”
Lopez’s goal is to continue improving herself and work until the age she wants. This age could be 70, or even 80 or 90. There is no need to set limits! It looks like JLO will be the talk of the town in the years to come…
