00:00:00Jennifer Lopez has been exposed by her former employees multiple times in the past.
00:00:05Didn't JLo sue Benny that one time? She fired him and then she sued him?
00:00:09I know Benny and he's like my best friend, my, like I said, my creative soul mate.
00:00:15Jennifer Lopez has filed a 20 million dollar lawsuit against her ex-chauffeur
00:00:20for extortion and defamation.
00:00:22And now her connection with Diddy has resurfaced amid all the ongoing drama surrounding him.
00:00:28Along with numerous reports that JLo has been being rude to people.
00:00:33And these incidents involving former employees
00:00:36are not sitting well with the public at all.
00:00:39In 2012 Jennifer Lopez went on a massive world tour
00:00:43and you know she was performing great, having a great stage presence and doing her thing.
00:00:48But behind the scenes this is where things got kind of crazy and this drama started to
00:00:53kind of evolve.
00:00:55So a hotel cleaner named Prey Dodigi felt very uncomfortable
00:01:00and bummed out by this whole situation that went down.
00:01:03So pretty much she's a dedicated worker who loved her job,
00:01:06took pride in making you know sure the hotel room look clean, spotless, whatever it was.
00:01:11One day while she was working at the hotel in Germany her life took a pretty wild turn.
00:01:17So she was cleaning JLo's suite and you know she's a huge fan
00:01:21so she couldn't resist the chance to ask for an autograph.
00:01:23As you know I guess many would.
00:01:25But things went pretty south.
00:01:27As soon as she approached Lopez who was just chilling in her suite,
00:01:31two of her assistants swooped in and they looked right at her saying
00:01:36you're not getting an autograph, pretty much don't even think about it.
00:01:39So obviously she was crushed in this moment,
00:01:42she couldn't believe that this simple request would be so serious.
00:01:46And guys to make matters even worse a few days later she got fired from her job
00:01:53for breaking company policy.
00:01:55So obviously she was heartbroken, confused
00:01:57and she just didn't understand why this encounter with JLo had cost her her job.
00:02:02She didn't mean any real trouble and she definitely wasn't trying to invade Lopez's privacy.
00:02:08So the whole thing kind of left a bad taste in her mouth
00:02:10and she felt like she's been treated unfairly.
00:02:13I mean I guess there's two ways to look at it right?
00:02:16Like you know JLo is pretty successful, she's a celebrity, she doesn't want to be bothered
00:02:21and in some way I guess she did invade her privacy but in the other side it's like come on
00:02:25it's not that serious like it would have taken her two seconds of an interaction you know.
00:02:30But anyways JLo has been often criticized for being you know cold,
00:02:34not very accessible to her fans and this incident just added to the fire
00:02:38making people wonder if she's really a down-to-earth person as she seems.
00:02:42While the exact reason behind this worker's termination is still a mystery,
00:02:46the incident definitely shed light on celebrity privilege
00:02:50and the rights of just regular people.
00:02:52In a statement she actually said,
00:02:54a day later the cleaning company that employed me at the hotel called
00:02:57and said that Miss Lopez had complained.
00:02:59I was fired right there on the phone because of an autograph.
00:03:03Anyways next we have JLo and Benny Medina that have been working together for over two decades,
00:03:08sometimes being best pals and sometimes fighting like cats and dogs.
00:03:12It all started back in 1999 when Benny became JLo's manager,
00:03:17helping her become this huge star.
00:03:19They were so tight that Benny was even chosen to be the godfather of JLo's twins Emma and Max.
00:03:25But things took a serious turn in 2003 when JLo suddenly fired Benny as her manager.
00:03:33She accused him of misappropriating her money.
00:03:35She accused Medina of not being a licensed talent agent.
00:03:38It got even worse when she sued him saying he broke California's talent agency act.
00:03:45JLo wanted all her money back plus an extra 10% for good measure.
00:03:50So the lawsuit shocked everyone in Hollywood because JLo and Benny used to be so close.
00:03:56Benny defended himself by saying he's always did what was best for JLo
00:04:00and that he was blindsided by her lawsuit.
00:04:03The lawsuit caused a lot of tension between the two.
00:04:06They had to go to court and argue their sides in front of the judge.
00:04:10The outcome of the case would decide whether they could continue working together
00:04:14and if their friendship could survive.
00:04:16I mean at that point I don't think it was.
00:04:18Benny even said the accusation that I misappropriated money from JLo is both untrue and offensive.
00:04:27JLo by making false allegations against me is now trying to add me to the long list of people
00:04:34whom she has used and discarded after she took from them all she could get.
00:04:39I look forward to the opportunity to have the world come to know the real Jennifer Lopez.
00:04:44I will defend myself against these lies and will collect from her every dollar for which I am owed.
00:04:50JLo eventually bought Benny and Medina back on board and they stayed close friends ever since
00:04:55and they actually work together till this day.
00:04:58So I don't know about you guys but that's a pretty crazy friendship.
00:05:02So anyways here's another situation.
00:05:05Jennifer Lopez's driver took her to court.
00:05:07Lopez is suing her former driver Maycub Minokian for extortion.
00:05:12Being a chauffeur is definitely a tough job.
00:05:15Just ask Kaku Minokian.
00:05:16A TMZ reported that Lopez promoted him to personal security and transportation chief
00:05:23and later that year he ended up in a legal battle with Lopez's team.
00:05:26So this Iraqi-born driver claimed that Lopez promised him a yearly base salary of $72,000
00:05:34with extra pay that would bring his actual salary to $200,000.
00:05:38And that's a lot of money guys.
00:05:40So he actually said that Lopez not only stiffed him on the money
00:05:44but that her assistant Medina verbally abused him.
00:05:48So I guess this Medina guy isn't as innocent as we thought.
00:05:52So Lopez countersued him for extortion but her lawsuit was thrown out in December 2012
00:05:59and the two eventually settled on terms that weren't made public.
00:06:02So clearly a lot of things happened behind the scenes and it might be for a reason.
00:06:09Okay so JLo's agent wasn't having any of it when she fired him.
00:06:13She didn't just fire him though.
00:06:15She also gave Patrick Whitesell, her agent at Endeavor talent agency, the boot.
00:06:21Apparently Endeavor told her it was either Medina or them.
00:06:25Well guess what?
00:06:26She chose neither.
00:06:28At the time Whitesell was also representing Ben Affleck, JLo's boyfriend at the time
00:06:33but he hadn't even been working with her for that long.
00:06:37From what I hear Endeavor and JLo weren't exactly shedding any tears over the split.
00:06:41Endeavor has parted company with Jennifer Lopez.
00:06:44The agency said in a statement,
00:06:46Jennifer is an incredibly talented actress and a good friend and we wish her much continued success.
00:06:52However as an agency we're no longer able to work with her manager Benny Medina.
00:06:56We thought it would be best for Jennifer and Endeavor that we part company at this time.
00:07:00Jennifer Lopez's assistant Gilly could not stand her boyfriend Casper Smart.
00:07:06Gilly had been JLo's right-hand woman for the longest time
00:07:10but Smart's actions were the actual final straw.
00:07:14So Gilly quit working for JLo in 2013 and started working for Mariah Carey,
00:07:20partly because of Smart's behavior.
00:07:22Smart had the freedom to do whatever he wanted at JLo's house
00:07:26and was horrible to the staff which obviously she wouldn't want to deal with.
00:07:30It was just the way he treated the staff that bothered her.
00:07:34She also thought that he didn't respect JLo's privacy.
00:07:38He would go into her personal stuff and snoop through her stuff
00:07:41which obviously she thought was unacceptable and I mean I don't think anyone would find that okay.
00:07:47To make things even more interesting,
00:07:50JLo and Mariah Carey were feuding cats in the industry.
00:07:54I mean they have been competing with each other for a while now
00:07:57and Gilly's decision to join her may have been influenced by this rivalry.
00:08:01So Gilly leaving JLo was a big deal.
00:08:04She has been JLo's assistant for the longest time and she knew all the gossip
00:08:08but the drama with Smart was just too much for her to handle.
00:08:12So when she quit JLo to join Carey's team,
00:08:16the entire industry was gossiping about the real reasons behind her departure.
00:08:21So Scott Barnes, the makeup artist who's like super famous for making JLo look amazing,
00:08:27found himself in a really weird situation.
00:08:30He was totally dedicated to JLo's career and everything
00:08:35but then news of her secret wedding to Marc Anthony leaks and it's like a bomb goes off.
00:08:41Everyone's freaking out and they start suspecting Scott which is like totally unfair.
00:08:47I mean after that Scott's life turned upside down.
00:08:51JLo's team started giving him the cold shoulder,
00:08:53no more invites to events, no more work opportunities.
00:08:56It was like he had the plague or something.
00:08:59Scott opened up about it on the Jeff Props show.
00:09:02He said that JLo's people were avoiding him like he was a ghost.
00:09:06And what happened was they got married, her and Marc Anthony.
00:09:08Right, it was supposed to be a secret and somebody leaked the story and I got blamed.
00:09:13It was super hurtful and confusing.
00:09:15He couldn't believe that they would think he would leak something like that
00:09:18especially after everything they've been through together.
00:09:21And despite all the drama, Scott stayed professional.
00:09:25He kept working hard hoping things would get better and they did.
00:09:29Eventually the truth came out and Scott was cleared of any wrongdoing
00:09:32but the whole experience was a reminder that even the best relationships can be fragile
00:09:37and clearly communication is key in these types of situations.
00:09:41JLo is confirmed to be on the Diddy tapes.
00:09:45Yeah, they came to Ben Affleck and they said the wife sold these tapes.
00:09:50That's right, your favorite Jenny, sorry Jennifer Aniston,
00:09:53is about to have a really, really long day.
00:09:56If these tapes get out, two things could happen.
00:09:58Either JLo is criticized further or she gets the Kim K treatment and launched into superstardom.
00:10:04Let's talk about it.
00:10:05In the latest news drop to shake the entertainment world,
00:10:07Jennifer Lopez has been dragged into the news involving none other than Sean Diddy Combs.
00:10:13You know I love you.
00:10:15The whispers of this juicy revelation have turned into a deafening roar,
00:10:19thanks to allegations from a former bodyguard that claim JLo appears in Diddy's infamous tapes.
00:10:25Yeah, because whenever I meet people like Combs, they like to keep trophies.
00:10:31As the gossip mill churns, the saga has also entangled Lopez's ex-husband Ben Affleck
00:10:36with rumors that they divorced because Ben Affleck already knew.
00:10:40For those who haven't been keeping up, let's set the stage.
00:10:43The so-called Diddy tapes have become the stuff of Hollywood legend right now.
00:10:47Allegedly recorded during Diddy's wild freak-off parties,
00:10:50these tapes reportedly feature explicit activities involving celebrities,
00:10:54models, and other high-profile guests.
00:10:56Over the years, the tapes have been rumored to exist but never definitively proven.
00:11:00Enter Big Homie CC, a former celebrity bodyguard with ties to the hip-hop world.
00:11:06In a recent interview with Michael Francese,
00:11:08CC made jaw-dropping claims that federal authorities seized these tapes
00:11:12during a raid on Diddy's properties.
00:11:14The tapes allegedly contained footage of Lopez, sparking immediate discussion.
00:11:19CC didn't mince words.
00:11:20One thing for certain that I can't say and confirm to actually be fact,
00:11:25because I know this gentleman's part of his security team,
00:11:28they came to Ben Affleck and they said your wife's on these tapes.
00:11:31Cue the collective gasp heard around the world.
00:11:34Could it really be true that one of Hollywood's most glamorous power couples
00:11:38were embroiled in such a sordid saga?
00:11:41When Jennifer Lopez and Diddy first got together in 1999,
00:11:44it was a match that lit up headlines and captivated fans.
00:11:47Lopez was transitioning from a successful acting career into music,
00:11:51having just released her debut album, On the 6th,
00:11:54which featured hits like If You Had My Love.
00:11:57At the same time, Diddy, then known as Puff Daddy,
00:11:59was at the height of his influence in the music industry,
00:12:02running Bad Boy Records and producing chart-topping albums
00:12:05for artists like Notorious B.I.G. and Faith Evans.
00:12:08Together, they were a power couple who exuded style, success.
00:12:12The duo became synonymous with opulence and extravagance,
00:12:15attending lavish parties and hitting red carpets in unforgettable looks.
00:12:19Who can forget the iconic image of J.Lo in her plunging Versace dress
00:12:23at the 2000 Grammys with Diddy by her side?
00:12:26That dress became legendary,
00:12:28but the relationship behind it was anything but smooth sailing.
00:12:31Their romance, as usual when it comes to Jenny, was tumultuous,
00:12:35marked by publicized arguments and intense scrutiny from the media.
00:12:38One of the most infamous moments in their relationship came in December 1999,
00:12:43when the couple was involved in a high-profile nightclub incident in New York City.
00:12:47The incident occurred at Club New York, what a creative name,
00:12:50where heat broke out, leaving three people injured.
00:12:53Diddy was arrested for carrying a self-defense item
00:12:56and accused of bribing his driver to take the fall for him.
00:12:59Meanwhile, Lopez, who was present at the scene,
00:13:01was taken into custody but quickly released after being cleared of any involvement.
00:13:05This incident not only dominated tabloid headlines,
00:13:08but also tested their relationship in a very public way.
00:13:11While Diddy faced a grueling legal situation, he was ultimately acquitted.
00:13:15Lopez distanced herself from the chaos.
00:13:18Many believe this incident was the beginning of the end for their romance.
00:13:21Behind closed doors,
00:13:22their relationship was reportedly fraught with jealousy and power struggles.
00:13:26Diddy, known for his larger-than-life personality,
00:13:29often found himself at odds with Lopez's burgeoning career ambitions.
00:13:33By the time they split in 2001,
00:13:35Lopez had cemented her status as a bona fide superstar
00:13:38with the release of her sophomore album, J-Lo,
00:13:41and her lead role in the romantic comedy The Wedding Planner.
00:13:44In interviews years later,
00:13:45Lopez reflected on the relationship with a mix of gratitude and honesty.
00:13:49In her 2019 interview with People,
00:13:51she described her time with Diddy as fun and flashy,
00:13:54but acknowledged it wasn't sustainable.
00:13:56She said,
00:14:00Diddy, on the other hand, has spoken fondly of Lopez in interviews,
00:14:03even calling her one of his greatest loves.
00:14:05Their post-breakup dynamic remained amicable,
00:14:08with the two occasionally reuniting at industry events,
00:14:11but the shadow of their relationship has lingered in the public imagination.
00:14:15Now, over two decades later,
00:14:16Lopez's past with Diddy has come back to haunt her.
00:14:19The alleged tapes threatened to drag not just her,
00:14:21but also her ex-husband, Ben Affleck, into a whirlpool of discussion.
00:14:25Adding an extra layer of intrigue to this saga
00:14:27is Ben Affleck's rumored reaction to the allegations.
00:14:31According to sources close to Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez,
00:14:34Ben was allegedly shown the tapes by federal agents
00:14:37who came into possession of the footage during their investigation of Diddy.
00:14:40If the rumors are to be believed,
00:14:42the tapes have probably caused the tension in Lopez and Ben Affleck's marriage
00:14:46that caused them to get divorced.
00:14:48And who wouldn't be rattled by such revelations?
00:14:50Ben Affleck has always appeared as the ultimate supportive husband,
00:14:54standing by J.Lo through career highs and personal challenges.
00:14:57But this scandal might be testing even his famously cool demeanor.
00:15:01One particularly big claim comes from none other than Suge Knight,
00:15:05the former Death Row Records CEO,
00:15:07who suggested that these tapes were a factor in Ben Affleck questioning his marriage.
00:15:11Knight didn't hold back, saying,
00:15:13I'm quite sure J.Lo and Ben are headed for divorce because that's a man who had a good life.
00:15:17She done brought all that extra stuff out,
00:15:19and now that guy wants out.
00:15:21While Knight's comments should be taken with a grain of salt
00:15:24because he's not exactly known for being a neutral observer,
00:15:27they've definitely added fuel to the fire.
00:15:29Of course, no modern scandal is complete without the internet weighing in,
00:15:32and this one has been no exception.
00:15:35Social media platforms are abuzz with reactions,
00:15:38memes, and wild theories about the alleged tapes.
00:15:40Some fans are defending J.Lo,
00:15:42pointing out that her past with Diddy is ancient history
00:15:44and should have no bearing on her current life.
00:15:47Others are gleefully dissecting the rumors,
00:15:49with some going as far as to suggest that these tapes
00:15:52could lead to an all-out Hollywood implosion if they're ever released.
00:15:56Then there's the question of timing.
00:15:58Why are these tapes surfacing now?
00:15:59Just as Diddy faces a wave of legal stuff,
00:16:02including allegations that are way too bad to mention here.
00:16:05Cynics suspect that the allegations are part of a larger smear campaign
00:16:09against the music mogul,
00:16:10with J.Lo and Affleck caught in the crossfire.
00:16:13Amid the chaos, one voice has been conspicuously absent,
00:16:16Jennifer Lopez herself.
00:16:18The multi-hyphenate superstar has yet to comment publicly on the allegations,
00:16:22fueling speculation about what's happening behind the scenes.
00:16:24Lopez has always been a master of managing her public image,
00:16:27carefully curating her persona as a hard-working, family-oriented icon.
00:16:32Her silence could be a strategic move to avoid fanning the flames,
00:16:35or it could be that she's working behind the scenes to address the fallout privately.
00:16:39While the existence of these tapes has been widely reported,
00:16:42skeptics argue that they might be nothing more than an urban legend.
00:16:45Over the years, rumors of compromising footage of various celebrities
00:16:48have circulated endlessly, with little to no evidence ever coming to light.
00:16:52That said, the timing of these allegations couldn't be worse for Diddy,
00:16:56who's already under intense scrutiny for legal stuff.
00:16:59If the tapes are real and contain anything remotely incriminating,
00:17:02they could prove disastrous for all parties involved.
00:17:05As this scandal unfolds, all eyes are on Jennifer Lopez.
00:17:09Will she address the allegations head-on,
00:17:11or will she let the rumors fizzle out on their own?
00:17:13Whether the tapes are real or just another Hollywood myth, one thing is clear.
00:17:17The fallout from this scandal will be felt for months to come.
00:17:20As fans and critics dissect every juicy detail,
00:17:23Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck's ability to weather this storm will undoubtedly shape their future.
00:17:28Jennifer Lopez is one of the most beloved actresses and singers of all time.
00:17:36But is she more infamous than famous?
00:17:38Let's check out why some celebs just can't stand her.
00:17:41If there's one thing about Jennifer Lopez we can be certain of,
00:17:43it's her love of a good endorsement deal.
00:17:46Over the years, JLo has lent her name to a wide range of things,
00:17:49from jewelry and cars to alcohol and makeup.
00:17:55But the brands she represents haven't always benefited from these partnerships.
00:17:59In a previous Fiat commercial,
00:18:01Lopez drove through the Bronx and discussed how her former neighborhood still inspires her.
00:18:06Fiat was forced to locate a body double since Lopez
00:18:09allegedly refused to physically return to the block she sang about,
00:18:12despite the fact that her relationship with the Italian automaker
00:18:16was reputedly worth millions of dollars.
00:18:19Owner of the Mott Haven Barbershop featured in the advertisement, Aligio Queto,
00:18:24revealed to The Smoking Gun that producers spent a few hours filming in the area of his establishment.
00:18:33The barber said that Lopez was not operating the featured Fiat 500 automobile,
00:18:38despite it traveling up and down East 136th Street.
00:18:41It wasn't her, Queto declared, it was a double that looked like her.
00:18:45Fiat eventually came clean, but JLo's representatives remained silent.
00:18:49The corporation released a statement saying,
00:18:51As you may know, people are increasingly mobile in today's world
00:18:55and their work takes them to a variety of locations.
00:18:57As a result, we took the opportunity to film
00:19:00wherever Ms. Lopez was working at the time to accommodate her schedule.
00:19:04The affair became known in the press as the Fiat's Go After That.
00:19:08What's next might be even more surprising.
00:19:10In 1998, a Movieline reporter arrived at Jennifer Lopez's opulent Beverly Hills estate
00:19:16for an interview and was met with what he denounced as a planned and planned scene.
00:19:22While numerous friends crowded around her poolside,
00:19:25JLo was relaxing and enjoying a massage.
00:19:30The actress obviously felt the need to let go during the interview,
00:19:34taking jabs at some of her competitors in the industry.
00:19:37So it's clear that the rubdown didn't completely relieve Lopez of her stress.
00:19:41Despite having recently collaborated on a film, Oliver Stone's neo-noir crime thriller U-Turn,
00:19:47JLo claimed that Romeo and Juliet star Claire Danes does the same thing with every character
00:19:52she does in response to a question about her opinions of the actresses she was vying for roles
00:19:57with.
00:19:58Lopez continued by claiming that she had never been a big fan of Winona Ryder,
00:20:02the two-time Oscar nominee, and she also disparaged Gwyneth Paltrow,
00:20:07who would go on to win Best Actress at the 2019 Academy Awards.
00:20:11During that notorious interview, Lopez asked,
00:20:13Tell me what she's been in.
00:20:14I swear to God I don't remember anything she was in.
00:20:17Some people get hot by association.
00:20:19I heard more about her and Brad Pitt than I ever heard about her work.
00:20:23Just wait for this next one.
00:20:25To a candid interview with Movieline,
00:20:27Jennifer Lopez also shared her thoughts on fellow pop artist and actress Madonna,
00:20:32saying Madge was terrific at the former but not so good at the latter.
00:20:36Do I think she's a great performer?
00:20:37Yeah.
00:20:38Do I think she's a great actress?
00:20:40No.
00:20:40Lopez said,
00:20:41Acting is what I do.
00:20:43So I'm harder on people when they say,
00:20:45Oh, I can do that.
00:20:46I can act.
00:20:47I'm like, Hey, don't spit on my craft.
00:20:49Although it's simple to argue that the material girl wasn't suited for acting,
00:20:53Madonna was still riding high on the success of her 1996 musical biography,
00:20:57Evita, when Lopez spoke with her.
00:21:00Lopez hasn't just disparaged one musician, the queen of pop.
00:21:03There have also been rumors circulating that JLo's brief romance with Drake in 2016
00:21:08was really a marketing gimmick.
00:21:10The fact that Lopez unfollowed Rihanna on Instagram after the singer
00:21:14shared a photo of herself with the Grammy winner
00:21:17suggests that there may have been some validity to their relationship,
00:21:20despite the fact that the two have had a tumultuous history.
00:21:24Working with JLo doesn't always work out.
00:21:26She later insulted Drake during a live event in Las Vegas,
00:21:29telling the crowd that he was nothing more than a booty call for her.
00:21:32Lopez had previously disclosed that she and Drake were working on a song together.
00:21:36Cameron Diaz can now be counted among the actresses who have experienced a Jennifer
00:21:40Lopez's fury.
00:21:41During a candid interview with Movieline, JLo took aim at Diaz,
00:21:45referring to her as a lucky model who's been given a lot of opportunities
00:21:50I just wish she would've done more with.
00:21:52Ouch.
00:21:53When the actresses were paired together in 2012's What to Expect When You're Expecting,
00:21:57it was said to have been a little awkward because of Lopez's harsh criticism of Diaz's
00:22:02professional path.
00:22:03These two did not get along throughout the shoot, according to Onset Insiders.
00:22:07Now claims that Lopez failed to win over Diaz,
00:22:10who claims that the pop diva was a nightmare to deal with.
00:22:13She's even said that Jen should stick to her day job,
00:22:16meaning American Idol and singing, a source said.
00:22:18She demands to eat at specific times, no matter what.
00:22:21She stops work and has an assistant run over to her with a small protein and veg-based meal.
00:22:27Cameron is going crazy over it.
00:22:29The co-stars allegedly deliberately avoided each other,
00:22:31according to a source who revealed details of the apparent dispute to Star Magazine.
00:22:35The whistleblower claimed,
00:22:37They don't interact much, but when they do, the tension is thick.
00:22:40Lopez just acts as if Cam doesn't exist.
00:22:43When the two actresses went on The Ellen DeGeneres Show to promote the film,
00:22:46which was eventually blasted by critics, they denied that there was ever a rift.
00:22:51Celebrity makeup artists Scott Barnes and Jennifer Lopez have a long history together.
00:22:55They hit it off right away when they first met in the year 2000 during an InStyle magazine cover
00:23:00shoot. She just goes, I like you. I said, I like you too.
00:23:03When Barnes spoke with Refinery29 in 2018, he recalled,
00:23:07Barnes is a customer of Celine Dion, Catherine Zeta-Jones, and Julianne Moore.
00:23:12What are you doing on Friday? She said.
00:23:14I answered nothing, since I simply couldn't resist the want to
00:23:17collaborate with the stunning Kim Cattrall, even though I was meant to be working with her.
00:23:22I'm shooting my album cover. Wanna do it? She exclaimed.
00:23:25They were traveling to Stockholm by plane two days later.
00:23:28In the years that followed, the two grew close, with Barnes, who is said to have been an
00:23:32inspiration behind Lopez's characteristic radiant skin look, becoming a dependable
00:23:37confidante in her inner circle. But it wasn't all fun and games.
00:23:40Barnes said that J.Lo once fired him because she believed he had given reporters access
00:23:45to information about her. This was during an appearance on The Jeff Probst Show.
00:23:49It was like I had the plague, the makeup guru revealed.
00:23:52Barnes claimed he was quickly rehired after the real source of the leak was identified,
00:23:57but he never received an apology from J.Lo. I went right back to work with her.
00:24:02And we just never spoke about it again, which is even weirder.
00:24:05One employee of United Airlines claims that J.Lo's image as the difficult diva is completely
00:24:11justified. The flight attendant claimed in an interview with Star Magazine that Lopez
00:24:15treated him extremely rudely after he asked the well-known singer if she would like a drink.
00:24:21I asked you, what can I get you to drink? But according to him,
00:24:24Jennifer wouldn't even acknowledge me, via Radar Online.
00:24:27She turned her head away and told her personal assistant,
00:24:30please tell him I'd like a Diet Coke and lime. She wouldn't even look at me. It was sad. She
00:24:35seemed so sweet in her movies. As far as we are aware, the flight attendant who was ridiculed
00:24:40escaped unpunished. But a German hotel maid who dared to seek J.Lo for an autograph reportedly
00:24:46faced different circumstances. When Lopez visited the opulent Malaya Hotel in Dusseldorf,
00:24:51Germany in 2012, Prado Dodge was employed there. To put it mildly, she was excellent.
00:24:56I'm an incredibly big fan, so I took all my courage and rang the bell to get an autograph.
00:25:01But I was rejected by two assistants at the door. Dodge told the newspaper,
00:25:05A day later, the cleaning company that employed me at the hotel called and said that Ms. Lopez
00:25:10had complained. I was fired right there on the phone. Lopez did not dispute that she complained
00:25:15about the maid, but she did label the claim hurtful and denied that she was the reason
00:25:20anyone was dismissed. Life is full of regrets. I have a feeling Ben Affleck can relate. Let's
00:25:25check out some reasons Ben Affleck regrets marrying Jennifer Lopez. We all know Ben and
00:25:38Jen's tumultuous relationship. They've been on and off, and for almost a year now, there have
00:25:42been breakup rumors surrounding them. Well, this may have been the straw that broke the camel's
00:25:46back. Stay with me while I paint you a picture. Beautiful people grinning and clinking glasses on
00:25:51a stunning summer's day in Italy with the craggy Amalfi Coast serving as the backdrop. The focal
00:25:56point of the gathering is an immaculately made up Jennifer Lopez. As she gets ready to take a sip
00:26:01of her drink, she gives the camera a knowing smile. This marked the introduction of J.Lo's
00:26:06own cocktail line, Dolola. Similar to other well-known Hollywood figures like Sarah Jessica
00:26:10Parker and George Clooney, J.Lo had aimed to create her own beverage line in order to increase
00:26:16the value of her business. Because her beverage business was one of the things that broke the
00:26:20camel's back, as a close friend of her husband Ben Affleck stated to DailyMail.com. It's also
00:26:25acknowledged that the beverage company was founded before they reconciled, and Ben knew about and
00:26:29encouraged the venture. They even go so far as to imply that in the midst of rumors that their
00:26:34marriage is finally over, it helped Ben, not Jen, decide to call it quits. Why did Ben find this
00:26:39prominent business venture so weird? Well, according to friends, he regarded his wife's
00:26:44sales of vodka and tequila odd because he was a recovering habitual drinker. After all, he had
00:26:50battled his habits for many years. He was reported to be confused when the label was originally
00:26:54introduced in the previous year. The fact that he thought her sole purpose for starting her
00:26:58drink brand was to make hard, cold cash just made him feel more conflicted. Since 2001,
00:27:04when he first sought help for his habitual drinking, Ben has gone to help several times.
00:27:08His marriage to Jennifer Garner ended as a result of his habits. Worse, J.Lo then embarked
00:27:13on a highly visible promotional tour, telling the press how much she enjoys drinking to relax and
00:27:19let loose. She even shared a photo of herself to promote the newest item in the line, showing
00:27:23herself relaxing on a sunbed while wearing a swimming outfit. Ben had to fight to get his
00:27:27life back after overcoming the drink. Ben's buddy said to the mail, Knowing that he had lost
00:27:33everything, including his family's love and that he would relapse, Jen made the decision to launch
00:27:37her own spritzer line in an attempt to get extra money. Jen and Ben, who featured in Oscar-winning
00:27:42films including Argo and Good Will Hunting, have reportedly already filed their divorce paperwork.
00:27:48They both understand that what they had earlier is no longer there. What appeared to be a moving
00:27:52story of rediscovered love for someone lost has come to a sad end. Before getting married,
00:27:57the couple separated in 2004 after becoming together in 2002 and getting engaged. Following
00:28:02his 2005 marriage to Jennifer Garner, Ben and Garner went on to have three kids before divorcing
00:28:08in 2015 and completing their legal separation three years later. J.Lo later wed singer-songwriter
00:28:13Mark Anthony, with whom she had twins who were 16 years old. Ten years passed during their marriage.
00:28:18After J.Lo's failed engagement to baseball player Alex Rodriguez in 2021, Ben and Jen reconciled,
00:28:25much to the pleasure of fans in the press around the globe. The next year, they were married in
00:28:29Las Vegas and had a second, more elaborate ceremony at Ben's plantation in Georgia,
00:28:33which was worth $9 million. The pair hasn't been spotted together months before the divorce became
00:28:38official though, with Ben declining to attend J.Lo's Bridgerton-themed 55th birthday celebration
00:28:44just recently. Rather, when the couple listed their $68 million Beverly Hills home for sale,
00:28:49he purchased a $20 million bachelor apartment in Los Angeles. But there were problems even last
00:28:54year in 2023. Ben saw J.Lo's April 2023 drink company launch, Dolola, as a warning indication
00:29:00that she preferred her profession over him. In 2024, their respective desires, his for a quiet
00:29:06existence and hers for unrestricted all-access exposure, came to a head. Even though he tried
00:29:11to give into her demand for attention, their disparate views on their careers caused their
00:29:16marriage to falter. Ben was the one to pull the plug on their marriage here, a friend stated.
00:29:20He perceived this as picking right back up since Jennifer had led him to believe that she was the
00:29:24same person that she had been when they initially fell in love. Although he dislikes walking the
00:29:29red carpet with celebrities, he did it because she did. He could no longer handle her infatuation
00:29:34with fame. She had to be loved and captured on camera. He felt as though nothing remained sacred
00:29:39for him because she would reveal so much of herself to everyone. This was something she
00:29:43had to do. Her popularity had become an integral part of her identity. J.Lo's friends also report
00:29:48that she had altered her appearance and manner of dressing. She says that performing is more than
00:29:53just a profession to her and that she ultimately felt unable to give it up. Like with her previous
00:29:57three marriages, she made the decision to prioritize fame over him. In fact, it seemed like
00:30:02J.Lo was basing a large portion of her recent successful commercial production on their
00:30:06rekindled romance. Some even claimed that he was not exactly thrilled because her new album was
00:30:12all about him and he didn't even like her television program, This Is Me Now, A Love Story.
00:30:16That documentary, which featured Jen's account of her own road to love, was widely panned and
00:30:21failed to connect with viewers, costing millions of dollars. According to a person close to the
00:30:26pair, Ben was incensed. He didn't want her to do this at all. She asked him to invest in it and be
00:30:31involved in a project he was absolutely against. In the end, he was glad it flopped. It too destroyed
00:30:36their marriage. Ben didn't want their love story to be told, only she did. They lost 18 million
00:30:41pounds and it ruined Ben's trust in her. Ben seeing her spread their love letters on a table
00:30:46for others to read, as she did on screen, infuriated him. This is when he knew that she
00:30:51put fame above love. Indeed, during the documentary, J.Lo showed a book to the camera, saying,
00:30:57This book is a book Ben gave me on our first Christmas back together. It is every letter
00:31:02and every mail that we wrote to each other from 20 years ago and today. She highlighted one note
00:31:07that read, The greatest love story never told by Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck 2001-2010 and
00:31:13counting. But a friend of Ben's said he asked her to not do the documentary because he wanted to
00:31:18keep this stuff private and because it cost too much money. But she did it anyway. He asked her
00:31:23to pull back from doing red carpets and events so much and she wouldn't listen. She dragged him out
00:31:28anyways. It was never about him, it was always about her. The two appeared nervous at the launch
00:31:33of J.Lo's Netflix movie, The Mother. She later revealed that they had clashed over her outfit
00:31:37choices, saying, He'll joke with me sometimes. He'll say things like, Where's the rest of that
00:31:41shirt? I'm like, Oh, this one doesn't have anything else. J.Lo abruptly announced to her followers
00:31:46that she was taking time off to be with her children, family and close friends when she
00:31:50abruptly cancelled her planned summer tour. Ben was later seen driving his son Samuel to basketball
00:31:55practice in Santa Monica with actress Jennifer Garner, his ex-wife. The following day, J.Lo showed
00:32:00up to watch Samuel play as well as give her husband an awkward-looking kiss. While his wife
00:32:04has continued to wear her wedding ring, Ben had been spotted recently without it. And then there
00:32:09was their Beverly Hills mansion. Ben, it appears, just thought the price was too high. Friends
00:32:14remarked that J.Lo believed that her twins, Em and Max, as well as Ben's children, Violet, Finn and
00:32:19Samuel, would be pleased with the house. Nope. Buying that massive house was another huge red
00:32:24flag, said one close to Ben. He didn't want that house because it cost a ridiculous amount of
00:32:28money. It never felt like home to him and he cannot even believe that he moved into the home.
00:32:33She didn't want a marital home for them to grow old in. She wanted a massive structure that cost
00:32:38more than anyone else's home to flaunt her wealth and her marriage in. She thought that this would
00:32:43make everyone happy. They talked a lot about this. Things also seemed to be generated by a decline in
00:32:48her profession, which she battled so hard to achieve in following the documentary's failure,
00:32:53a source said. She became less popular, less people wanted to see her perform, and this made
00:32:58her irate and she took it out on Ben. She started to realize her star power was fading and he told
00:33:04her it was her own fault because she was overexposed. She took the fact that her documentary
00:33:08and album was a flop out on Ben because, as her husband, he was the closest one to her. He asked
00:33:13her to take a step back and she didn't. He wasn't a huge fan of her new album being so centered
00:33:17around him and she thought it was beautiful. Notwithstanding the intense feelings surrounding
00:33:21the highly publicized end of their parents' romance, sources indicate that their five
00:33:26children are eager to maintain communication. A source said, it is hard on the kids, but in the
00:33:30end they are all pretty grown up. Enough grown up to be able to see that it was not working between
00:33:35their parents. The kids will be okay and will stay close. Becoming a family for a minute was fun and
00:33:40this will always be special in their hearts. But J-Lo, who is 55 years old and has been married
00:33:45four times, is currently unmarried. Friends worry she ruins her romantic relationships. She knows
00:33:51she destroyed it all and was super apologetic, but it was too late. One said, he tried for a
00:33:55couple weeks, giving her the benefit of the doubt and even wore the wedding ring because she asked
00:34:00him to so that they could get a little space from the hounding press, but he's done. He found his
00:34:04home and she's not living in it. She knows this and now it is time for them to both move on. Ben
00:34:10seems to be giving his divorced wife time to rebrand. J-Lo's friends claim that she altered
00:34:15her appearance and style of clothing. She's smiling in public and she's not acting all like a diva.
00:34:19Her social media is bright and happy and she's speaking about her true feelings of being fragile.
00:34:24She's staying out of the spotlight and keeping her life private. Basically, Jennifer is now
00:34:28pretending to be the person that Ben thought she was all along. This made him fall in love with her,
00:34:32but he's not going to fall for it a third time. Two strikes, she's out. They are done.
00:34:37Jennifer Lopez was caught being rude to people on more than a few occasions.
00:34:41These instances where she reportedly mistreated the people around her are vile.
00:34:45Let's get into it, shall we? For years, many servers and staff have reported that J-Lo is
00:34:50tough to work for. She has numerous rules. There are several accounts of her rude behavior.
00:34:54Some people may be exaggerating, who knows? But with these many people talking, it's hard to make
00:34:59excuses and it's kind of believable. Her drivers allegedly have to follow super strict rules or
00:35:05they will be fired. One woman posted to TikTok to claim that Jennifer Lopez is rude to her drivers.
00:35:10Kayla claimed her father once worked for a company that Jenny often hired to provide drivers
00:35:16and says her dad would refuse to drive J-Lo after hearing stories about her poor temperament.
00:35:20And he refused to drive her whenever she came in town because of how awful she treated the drivers.
00:35:24Kayla said that J-Lo does not allow the drivers to look at her, to talk to her and that even if
00:35:29the driver looks through the rearview mirror, J-Lo will scold them. Lastly, she also allegedly has a
00:35:35peculiar rule. They cannot let her luggage touch the ground. She will go out of her way to make
00:35:40sure you get fired. She's also been accused of being a horrible tipper. Apparently, sometimes
00:35:44she doesn't even tip at all. J-Lo tells Ben not to tip at all and Ben is very much hated in the
00:35:50casino industry for being cheap, being rude to other players and both of them are notorious for
00:35:55not tipping. There was a server named Penny that claims that she spent one night serving Ben as he
00:35:59was at a poker table and she was not serving anyone else. Ben gave her an extremely generous
00:36:04tip of $10,000. However, once J-Lo caught wind of the tip, she allegedly snatched back the money.
00:36:10She will go out of her way to make sure you get fired. Apparently, Ben was so mortified that he
00:36:14sent a bouquet the next day and a $25,000 tip. I wonder if Jenny knows he did this. A flight
00:36:20attendant claimed that J-Lo refused to talk to anyone that isn't in her inner circle. The United
00:36:25Airlines worker said, I just said, what can I get you to drink? But even Jennifer refused to look at
00:36:30me. She turned her head away and told her personal assistant, please tell him I'd like a Diet Coke
00:36:35and like she wouldn't even look at me. It was sad. She seemed so sweet in her movies.
00:36:40According to today, J-Lo requires her nannies to work grueling hours every day of the week.
00:36:45She asked them to make sure they can work 16 hour days. Apparently this one to me is subjective
00:36:49because it's not like you can force somebody to work a job. So if they want, don't want to
00:36:53work 16 hours a day, they really don't have to. People can choose to work these long hours or
00:36:57they can just not. Julia Wang shared her story of meeting one of J-Lo's backup singers and Julia
00:37:02claims that the woman was part of a Vegas concert that J-Lo was performing. She was so mean to her
00:37:07backup singers. Julia said the singer told her if you were pretty or if you were Latina, it was game
00:37:12over. She hated you. She further claimed that J-Lo refused to talk or even look at any of them during
00:37:18their time of many hours of rehearsal, except for an occasional eye roll or scoff. Julia Wang also
00:37:23said, can you imagine spending time with someone working in a closed setting every single day for
00:37:27months and this person never even acknowledging you or acting like you exist? She shared that
00:37:32J-Lo's demeanor does a 180 when a man walks into the room. She only treats the woman poorly because
00:37:37she views them as competition. J-Lo is in big trouble now. Turns out she was at the VMAs after
00:37:43party in 2000 and that implies some serious stuff. Jennifer Lopez, J-Lo, her name has been coming up
00:37:50a lot right now. Jay-Z has just been charged for graping a 13 year old alongside Diddy while an
00:37:56unnamed female celebrity watched. A new report claims Combs and his then girlfriend Jennifer
00:38:01Lopez argued that night. Explicit photos of J-Lo and Diddy have just leaked onto the internet.
00:38:07There are many screenshots. Will Combs ex-girlfriend play a role in this criminal case?
00:38:12Jennifer Lopez is no stranger to the spotlight, but the latest headlines are casting her in an
00:38:16uncomfortable glow. Jennifer Lopez is going viral every single day because of Diddy. It's no secret
00:38:22there's a million different reports. The singer and actress celebrated for her decades-long career
00:38:27as a global superstar is now facing potential legal stuff stemming from events that occurred
00:38:33over two decades ago. So much of my past. Reports suggest that the infamous VMAs after party in 2000
00:38:41which involved alleged acts by Diddy and Jay-Z might have far-reaching consequences for J-Lo
00:38:47who was present at the event. This revelation has reignited discussions around her connection
00:38:52to these powerful figures and raised questions about whether her involvement could drag her
00:38:56into a legal quagmire. Will Combs ex-girlfriend play a role in this criminal case? The MTV VMAs
00:39:022000 after party was supposed to be a celebration of music's brightest stars, but it quickly
00:39:08descended into chaos. Reports from the time allege that Sean Diddy Combs and Jay-Z were involved in
00:39:14an altercation that led to multiple incidents, including alleged behavior. While details of the
00:39:19event have been shrouded in secrecy, it's widely known that J-Lo, who was dating Diddy at the time,
00:39:25attended the party. This isn't the first time J-Lo's connection to Diddy has been scrutinized.
00:39:30Their high-profile relationship was marked by glitz, glamour, and more than a few discussions
00:39:35in the media. Most notably, J-Lo was present during a nightclub incident in December 1999.
00:39:41An incident that saw Diddy charged with self-defense item possession,
00:39:45while J-Lo was cleared of any wrongdoing in that case. The renewed focus on the MTV
00:39:50Awards after party has brought her proximity to Diddy's legal stuff back into the spotlight.
00:39:55So why is this decades-old event resurfacing? According to sources, new information and
00:40:01testimonies related to the after party have come to light, implicating several individuals who
00:40:07were present that evening. While J-Lo hasn't been accused of direct involvement in any activity,
00:40:12her attendance at the event has raised questions about what she might have witnessed.
00:40:16Legal experts suggest that J-Lo could be called to testify if the case moves forward. Her presence at
00:40:22the party places her in a unique position. One legal analyst explained, even if she didn't
00:40:27participate in any wrongdoing, she may have information that's critical to the investigation.
00:40:32The timing couldn't be worse for J-Lo, who is already navigating a wave of personal
00:40:37and professional challenges. With her recent divorce from Ben Affleck,
00:40:41dominating tabloid headlines, and her ties to the Diddy tapes creating additional scrutiny,
00:40:46this potential legal entanglement threatens to further complicate her public image.
00:40:51J-Lo's relationship with Diddy was one of the most talked about romances of the late 1990s.
00:40:56The couple, who dated from 1999 to 2001, were often seen as hip-hop royalty, gracing red carpets
00:41:03and dominating headlines. Yet their relationship was fraught with drama, much of it stemming from
00:41:08Diddy's legal stuff. The nightclub incident in 1999 marked a turning point for their relationship.
00:41:13While Diddy faced serious charges, J-Lo distanced herself from the incident and their relationship
00:41:18eventually came to an end. However, the association between the two continues to follow J-Lo,
00:41:24often overshadowing her subsequent relationships and accomplishments.
00:41:27The MTV Awards afterparty, occurring during the height of their relationship,
00:41:31is now being revisited through this lens. For J-Lo, the question isn't about what happened
00:41:36that night, it's about how her proximity to the discussion could impact her today.
00:41:40While much of the focus has been on Diddy, reports also suggest that Jay-Z's alleged
00:41:45involvement in the afterparty incidents could come under scrutiny. The rapper and business
00:41:50mogul, who has since become one of the most influential figures in music and culture,
00:41:54has largely avoided legal discussion throughout his career. However, his presence at this event,
00:41:59coupled with Diddy's history of high-profile legal discussions, has created a web of speculation
00:42:04that threatens to pull in anyone associated with the night's events. For J-Lo, this broader context
00:42:10adds another layer of complexity. Her connections to both Diddy and Jay-Z, whether personal or
00:42:15professional, place her squarely in the public eye as new details emerge. As news of the potential
00:42:21legal fallout spreads, the public's reaction has been a mix of fascination and skepticism.
00:42:26Social media platforms are buzzing with discussions about J-Lo's involvement,
00:42:30with many debating whether her presence at the afterparty should have any bearings on
00:42:34her current life. J-Lo's been out of this drama for years. Dragging her into this now
00:42:39feels like a stretch, one Twitter user commented. Others, however, believe that J-Lo's role,
00:42:44no matter how peripheral, should be examined. If she was there and knows something, she should
00:42:50testify. This isn't about the past, it's about accountability, another user argued.
00:42:54The resurfacing of the VMA's afterparty discussion has reignited interest in the intricate ties
00:42:59between Jennifer Lopez and Diddy. At the height of their relationship, J-Lo and Diddy were a
00:43:04power couple whose every move made headlines. But beyond the glitz and glamour, their time
00:43:09together was marked by scandal and high-profile legal stuff. The VMA's afterparty in 2000,
00:43:15now back under scrutiny, is another piece of this complex puzzle. While there is no suggestion that
00:43:20J-Lo participated in any wrongdoing, the fact that she was present during key events tied to Diddy
00:43:25has led some to question what she may know. Not to mention that her name has also been linked to the
00:43:31Diddy tapes, alleged recordings from Diddy's notorious parties that have sparked discussions
00:43:35about accountability and exploitation. Though J-Lo's involvement in these tapes remains
00:43:40speculative, the media frenzy surrounding them has created a renewed focus on her past with Diddy.
00:43:46For J-Lo, the convergence of these issues risks overshadowing her current achievements.
00:43:50Her career spans decades, with accomplishments in music, film, and fashion that have solidified
00:43:55her status as an icon. Yet, the public's fascination with her personal life and its
00:43:59entanglement with figures like Diddy and Jay-Z have often complicated her narrative.
00:44:04Legal analysts point out that being called to testify in a high-profile case is not without
00:44:09risks. Even if J-Lo's testimony is neutral or protective of her reputation, her mere association
00:44:15with the discussion could invite unwanted media attention. Moreover, the case could impact her
00:44:20brand. J-Lo has worked hard to build a public image centered around empowerment, resilience,
00:44:25and a relentless work ethic. Being drawn into a legal drama involving alleged acts and past
00:44:30associations could spell the end. Jennifer Lopez's career has often been shaped by the
00:44:35public's perception of her, from her breakout role in Selena to her chart-topping hits.
00:44:40J-Lo has consistently positioned herself as a hard-working, self-made star. However,
00:44:45her personal relationships, whether with Diddy, Ben Affleck, or others,
00:44:48have frequently overshadowed her accomplishments. The resurfacing of the MTV After Party discussion
00:44:54is a reminder of how difficult it can be for public figures to escape their pasts.
00:44:58While J-Lo has spent years distancing herself from her early days in the spotlight,
00:45:02these new revelations threaten to bring it all back into focus.
00:45:06Social media has been a particularly volatile platform for reactions to the news.
00:45:11Fans are divided, with some defending J-Lo and emphasizing her innocence,
00:45:14while others question her judgment in past relationships.
00:45:17She's been trying to move forward, but the past always catches up, one Twitter user noted.
00:45:22Why is this coming up now? Feels like a targeted hit piece. Others have been less sympathetic,
00:45:27arguing that J-Lo's proximity to these events warrants investigation. If she was there and
00:45:31knows something, she has a responsibility to tell the truth, one commenter posted.
00:45:36As this story develops, Jennifer Lopez faces the challenge of balancing her current projects with
00:45:40the renewed attention of her past. Her career remains as active as ever, with new music,
00:45:45acting roles, and fashion ventures soon to be at the forefront of the entertainment industry.
00:45:50Yet, the potential legal entanglement from the MTV After Party discussion could pose a distraction,
00:45:54or worse, a threat to her carefully cultivated image.
00:46:03J-Lo has some strict rules she follows in life, and some of them transfer over to her lovers.
00:46:08Let's look at some rules Jennifer Lopez made Ben Affleck follow in their marriage.
00:46:13No Smoking Allowed
00:46:14The well-known meme of Ben Affleck smoking outside and appearing genuinely worn out by
00:46:19life is something we've all seen. Although it's no secret that Ben likes to smoke,
00:46:24there supposedly used to be a rigorous no smoking policy in the home.
00:46:32J-Lo loves Ben, but she's sick of his filthy cigarettes, a 2022 OK Magazine source stated.
00:46:39She didn't want to be a bother, so she initially put up with his smoking because it was his sole
00:46:43habit, but now she can't bear it. She detests cigarette smoke, and to make matters worse,
00:46:48she can smell it on his clothes. She would prefer that Ben not smoke at all, but he goes
00:46:53outdoors to smoke now, the insider revealed. No Female Flight Attendants
00:47:01As a result of her ex-husband Mark Anthony's reported liaison with a flight attendant,
00:47:06Lopez reportedly forbids female flight attendants from working on her private aircraft,
00:47:10according to Fox News. Only Three Drinks When You Go Out
00:47:14According to Cheat Sheet, there have been long-standing rumors that Lopez has a rigid
00:47:18Only Three Drinks When We're Out policy with each of her previous relationships.
00:47:22No Cheating Ben and Jen, like every other relationship,
00:47:26had no desire for cheating. They supposedly even came close to putting a contract in place to guard
00:47:31against cheating. The Daily Mail claims that after Ben supposedly spent the night with a woman,
00:47:40a no cheating condition was included to Affleck and Lopez's 2003 prenuptial agreement,
00:47:45which never went into force. A source told the publication, the prenuptial agreement is to
00:47:50protect both their assets and says that if they do split, they can keep their own money, except
00:47:55if Ben cheats. What she does want is for Ben to give her some guarantee that he will never cheat
00:48:01again. He Must Get Along With His Ex Both Lopez and Affleck had dated famous people in the past,
00:48:10but Hollywood Life claims that Affleck had to get along with Mark Anthony,
00:48:13Lopez's ex-husband, at any cost. Well, Lopez and the father of her twins are said to be quite
00:48:19close even after their 2014 divorce. This seems like a sensible guideline for blended families.
00:48:25He Needs To Be In Charge Of All Relocation It has been reported by the Marca that Ben
00:48:29Affleck handles all of their relocation-related decisions, including moving and house purchases,
00:48:35in order to maintain Lopez's happiness and contentment. While looking for a house might
00:48:39be very difficult, it seems even more weird to not divide the work equally.
00:48:44No More Kids It's said that as soon as they were back
00:48:47together, Lopez and Affleck agreed to stop having children. They do not want any new children,
00:48:52they are both past that part in their lives. JLo's connection with his kids makes Ben even
00:48:57more certain that this is fate. A source told Hollywood Life in 2022,
00:49:01they are focusing on raising them to be good adults now and the party of five is enough for them.
00:49:06No Big Tips Long accused of being
00:49:09impolite to wait staff, Lopez even allegedly makes sure Affleck doesn't waste too much money,
00:49:15according to one employee. According to a now-deleted TikTok video via Your Tango,
00:49:20a former employee of a casino told the story about how Lopez was stingy with her money,
00:49:25saying, Lopez tells Affleck not to tip. He doesn't tip anymore, baby. You don't need to
00:49:29tell him nothing. He ain't doing it. Others claimed that if he did, she would steal the
00:49:33large tips from the employees in the service sector. The relationship between Jennifer Lopez
00:49:38and Ben Affleck was widely publicized from the start in 2001 till Lopez filed for divorce in
00:49:43August 2024. Many things have been said about their courtship and the rules they supposedly
00:49:48observed over the years. Lopez and Affleck first crossed paths on the set of Gigli in 2001,
00:49:54and they shortly started dating in 2002. Due to the media's attention to their romance,
00:49:59they got engaged and remained together till 2004. After getting back in touch in May 2021,
00:50:05they engaged in less than a year, and on July 16, 2022, they astonished everyone by eloping
00:50:10to Las Vegas. Following a two-year marriage, there were rumors of a split in the spring of 2024.
00:50:16On August 20th, exactly two years after their grander second wedding in Georgia,
00:50:20Lopez filed for divorce formally. Their supposed marital rules revealed just how hard they tried
00:50:26to hold things together, and their PDA-filled red carpet moments and films that purportedly
00:50:31show them squabbling at events have demonstrated all the highs and lows of their doomed romance.
00:50:36Boundaries are crucial in any partnership or marriage, and Lopez and Affleck appeared to
00:50:41have strong ones, but some of these alleged guidelines may have been overly stringent.
00:50:46JLo has done some shady things. Let's dive into why she might be Hollywood's latest celeb on the
00:50:51hate train. She zoned out during a Mariah Carey performance. Unusually, Jennifer Lopez seems to
00:50:59have held back when speaking about Mariah Carey, the celebrity many view as her biggest rival.
00:51:03However, as they say, actions speak louder than words.
00:51:09Carey was allegedly outwitted about a sample she was going to utilize for the Glitter soundtrack,
00:51:14which is how the purported animosity started. In retaliation, the diva's ex-husband,
00:51:19Tommy Mottola, allegedly learned about the idea and gave it to Lopez for a song on her
00:51:24sophomore album, I'm Real, according to the diva's 2020 memoir. Soon after, Carey famously
00:51:29responded, I don't know her, to a question about JLo, setting off a thousand memes.
00:51:34JLo's response was funny, to say the least.
00:51:40Lopez maintained silence over the alleged feud until 2014, when she said to Watch What Happens
00:51:46Live with Andy Cohen, via E!, that I've read things that she said about me that were not the
00:51:50greatest, but we've never met. But a year later, when Carey's Billboard Music Awards performance
00:51:55was captured on camera, the Enough actress seemed to get her own revenge. During another appearance
00:52:01on Cohen's program in 2016, Lopez clarified that she wasn't being disrespectful. She just couldn't
00:52:06help but add what many saw as a subtle jab. First of all, that was not fair with the texting thing
00:52:12because I watched a lot of it. It was a long performance.
00:52:16She got wrongfully mad at a makeup artist. But Lopez does not always target the wealthy and
00:52:22well-known with her slights. Around the middle of the 2000s, there were rumors that someone had
00:52:27released information to the media about the celebrity and Marc Anthony's covert marriage
00:52:31ceremony. So, the star effectively exiled her longtime makeup artist, Scott Barnes.
00:52:36Speaking on The Jeff Probst Show in 2012, Barnes disclosed that the person he regarded as a friend
00:52:42ignored him for a whole year until it was established that the leak was the work of
00:52:46someone else. It was like I had the plague, he told the host. J.Lo did give Barnes his old job
00:52:51back again after learning the truth, but apparently failed to apologize for being so ruthless.
00:52:59What might be more shocking is what Barnes said after. The makeup artist said via radar,
00:53:04I went right back to work with her and we just never spoke about it again,
00:53:08which is even weirder. He had previously provided his services to Gwyneth Paltrow,
00:53:12another one of Lopez's targets. Barnes requested that they stay friends for the next six years,
00:53:17that he was paid to work with the celebrity, saying, She sat for the cover of my first book
00:53:21and we're friends. She's an amazing woman and she's like, I love you, you know, and I say,
00:53:26I love you too, we're friends. She claimed that all men under 33 are useless. As a man who is
00:53:32under the age of 33, I take offense. Jennifer Lopez took the seemingly improbable decision to
00:53:38use Tinder in 2018. All okay, sort of. Through a function called swipe sessions, the celebrity
00:53:43used the dating app to discover her ideal match, a fan named Brooke, who was in her 20s. While doing
00:53:50so, she also offered some advice to the singleton. Guys until they're 33 are really useless,
00:53:56the self-appointed love guru proclaimed after going through numerous unsuitable suitors. Is
00:54:01there a specific reason Lopez views people under this particular age as unacceptable?
00:54:06It's a fairly significant coincidence, though, that J.Lo married 32-year-old Chris Judd on her
00:54:11second marriage. But after their divorce, she couldn't have quickly embraced this rule. In 2002,
00:54:16Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez became the popular duo known as Bennifer at the age of just 30.
00:54:22Ten years later, backup dancer Casper Smart started dating the triple threat, but he was
00:54:27even younger, 24 to be exact. She said Drake was a booty call. When Jennifer Lopez and Drake
00:54:32were seen cuddling up on Instagram in 2016, it almost brought the internet to a halt. The rapper's
00:54:38former partner Rihanna and her ardent following didn't seem to approve of the photo. However,
00:54:42the new power couple vanished within a few months. The 2017 song Free Smoke had a later allusion from
00:54:48Drake to their brief romance. I drunk text J.Lo, old number so it bounced back. In the song Diplomatic
00:54:54Immunity, I lost to J.Lo, he also made reference to reports that he had cheated on the Made in
00:54:59Manhattan star a year later. Prior to her 2019 stage appearance in Los Angeles' The Forum,
00:55:04Lopez herself had remained silent about the entire situation. Indeed, during the premiere of her
00:55:09That's My Party tour, the triple threat began to dance to her former partner's hit song Hotline
00:55:14Bling. But according to Hollywood Life, J.Lo stopped posing and joked, huh, booty call. Much
00:55:20to the amusement of the crowd as the line, you used to call me on your cell phone played. Many
00:55:24believed that J.Lo hadn't treated the relationship with Drake with the same seriousness. J.Lo says
00:55:29that her first two marriages don't count. Before she was even 40, Jennifer Lopez had already been
00:55:35down the aisle three times. Nevertheless, based on her comments from a behind the scenes video
00:55:40diary to promote her It's My Party tour, it appears that the singer views herself as a one-time bride.
00:55:45While discussing her impending on and off nuptials with Alex Rodriguez, Lopez reflected
00:55:50on her previous wedding ceremonies. I've never been married in a church. I've been married three
00:55:54times, and once was nine months and once was 11 months, so I don't really count those. Naturally,
00:56:00Lopez fired her first husband, O'Johnny Noah, and then she divorced Chris Judd due to irreconcilable
00:56:06differences. It makes perfect sense for Lopez to want to move on from Noah. A tell-all book on his
00:56:11brief marriage to the celebrity was once attempted to be published by the former writer. Later on,
00:56:15Lopez was able to obtain an injunction prohibiting her former partner from disparaging her. A court
00:56:20order prohibiting Noah and his friends from publishing video footage from their honeymoon,
00:56:24which is allegedly of an uncompromising quality, was also granted to her. As late as 2015,
00:56:30Noah's business partner, Ed Meyer, told In Touch that they were still trying to disclose the tape
00:56:35because they had found a legal loophole. That battle, which began in 2009, was still ongoing.
00:56:41You can't plan your life. That's not how it is, and you have to go with what happens.
00:56:45We all know J.Lo's image during and after her divorce was not a good look, but it seems those
00:56:51days may be over. Jennifer Lopez is desperate to fix her image after divorcing Ben Affleck.
00:56:56Following her highly publicized breakup with Ben Affleck, Jennifer Lopez just shared an Instagram
00:57:01photo of herself having fun in the summer. Jennifer Lopez, writing in the caption,
00:57:06It was a summer. According to a source who spoke to Page Six, Lopez is looking to make
00:57:12over her image going forward. Jennifer Lopez shared a series of photos from her single Hampton
00:57:16Summer on Instagram, featuring photos in bikinis and a close-up of a t-shirt bearing the poet
00:57:22R.H. Sinn's word, she's in bloom and unbothered, out of reach and at peace. We've heard that
00:57:27Lopez's close family and friends, which includes her longtime manager, Benny Medina, are still
00:57:33steadfast. Regarding J.Lo's personal life going forward, however, a source stated,
00:57:38She's open to listening to new voices of those around her. Despite Jenny's marital troubles,
00:57:44Lopez and her former best friend, Leah Romini, made up. Romini just declared her own 21-year
00:57:50marriage to her husband, Angelo Pagan, to be over. Romini's worries about Ben caused the
00:57:56longtime friends to talk before Lopez married Affleck in 2022, according to a source.
00:58:01Romini cautioned Lopez to keep in mind the reason she ended their 2002 relationship,
00:58:07because he is selfish and not fully committed as a partner, our source claims.
00:58:11According to the insider, J.Lo was so mad she cut off all ties and declined to invite Romini
00:58:19to their nuptials. Romini did not attend the couple's Georgia wedding, which was also attended
00:58:23by Jason Mewes, Matt Damon and filmmaker Kevin Smith. At the time, TMZ was informed by sources
00:58:30that the ex-scientist was assisting her daughter Sophia, then 18, in preparing for college.
00:58:35In July, Lopez and Affleck eloped to Vegas for their first wedding ceremony.
00:58:40Romini has reportedly been eager to get back in touch with her old best friend,
00:58:44because Lopez and Affleck were having trouble and divorce rumors were making headlines.
00:58:54They were friends for years, the source said recently. She wants to reach out to her,
00:58:58but she can't just call up and say, I told you so. According to the source, Romini has now called,
00:59:03and they have spoken, with Romini offering her buddy support. On the podcast Los Culturistas,
00:59:09Romini's friend Michelle Visage was questioned in September 2023 about Romini and J.Lo's
00:59:15friendship status. Her response was no comment. Page Six was previously informed by a source that
00:59:21Lopez and Affleck are divorcing because they couldn't make their marriage work. In her personal
00:59:25life, she needs advice from some new people to add a new layer and get some new suggestions,
00:59:30stated a source close to Lopez. Throughout her breakup with Affleck, Lopez has been in the news
00:59:36non-stop, filing for divorce on their second wedding anniversary. The move, according to a
00:59:40prior source, was intended to demonstrate to the world that she is a woman standing up in her own
00:59:45way. Lopez had earlier called off her tour due to marital spouts, stating in a statement that she
00:59:50was taking time off to be with her children, family, and close friends. Lopez has six
00:59:56engagements and four marriages under her belt, all of which have ended in divorce. People was
01:00:01recently informed by a source that although Lopez still feels very fortunate about her life,
01:00:06she also harbors some bitterness. The insider stated she's surrounded by family, friends,
01:00:10and her kids. She consistently maintains an optimistic attitude. She finds the divorce
01:00:15difficult, but she always manages to move on. J-Lo is hiding some stuff that you may want to
01:00:23know if you're a big fan of hers. Let's look into big secrets J-Lo didn't want you to know.
01:00:32In 2002, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck announced their engagement with plans to
01:00:36wed in 2004, but they cancelled things three days before their wedding. In the end,
01:00:41they reignited their romance in 2021, and in 2022, they tied the knot.
01:00:4620 years ago, I fell in love with the love of my life, and during that time,
01:00:49I was making an album called This Is Me Then. Lopez is heard telling a crowd in her new
01:00:58documentary, I hadn't made an album since then. 18 years later, we got back together,
01:01:03and I was very inspired. Another source of inspiration was her Bible, a book that Affleck
01:01:08gifted her on their first Christmas together. It is every letter and every email that we wrote
01:01:13to each other from 20 years ago today. She says, sharing that he titled it,
01:01:20The Greatest Love Story Never Told, by Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck, 2001-2021, and counting.
01:01:26To Affleck's amazement, Lopez put the book in the studio and allowed her collaborators to pursue it
01:01:31for song ideas. When Affleck learned that Lopez had given the book to everyone in her studio,
01:01:37he seemed stunned and taken aback. Affleck learns that the artists he collaborates with
01:01:42on projects with his wife gave him a nickname. I was like, you've been showing all the musicians
01:01:47all these letters? Affleck says in the documentary. And they were like, yeah,
01:01:50we call you Pen Affleck. And I was like, oh my god. Affleck remembers having some misgivings
01:01:56about Lopez disclosing so much about their relationship to the public at work.
01:02:00It means you're not my type. Good night. Good night. I did really find the beauty and the
01:02:05poetry and the irony in the fact that it's The Greatest Love Story Never Told. He tells the
01:02:10cameras. And if you're making a record about it, that seems kind of like telling it. Affleck says
01:02:16in a different scenario that he had to get used to her sharing their personal life with the public.
01:02:20He claims that Jen was greatly motivated by the encounter, which is how artists create their work.
01:02:26I certainly do the same things, but things that are private, I have always felt,
01:02:30are sacred and special because, in part, they're private. So this was something of an adjustment
01:02:35for me. In the end, Ben accepts Jennifer's project after learning that it's not really about him.
01:02:40I don't really love being in the making of documentary about my personal life,
01:02:44which is why I'm so relieved that I'm not really. It seems like I might be in this,
01:02:49but I'm not really, he says. I was worrying for no reason. The movie wasn't about me. It was about
01:02:54the ability to love yourself, and that love story is a lot harder to find than Prince Charming.
01:03:00Ben admits that concessions had to be made when they decided to get back together after 20 years
01:03:05apart. Getting back together, I said, listen, one of the things I don't want is a relationship on
01:03:10social media. Then I sort of realized it's not a fair thing to ask. It's sort of like you're going
01:03:15to marry a boat captain, and you're like, well, I don't like the water. We're just two people with
01:03:20kind of different approaches trying to learn to compromise. In the documentary, Ben plays a major
01:03:25role, spending tender moments with J-Lo while the cameras are rolling. It's also disclosed that in
01:03:30addition to his particular role in a love story, Affleck is the one who speaks with Lopez for the
01:03:36documentary. When she does her sit down interviews, her husband is in front of the camera dressed in
01:03:40a black turtleneck sweater with long sleeves. That's drip. Marc Anthony was offered the part
01:03:45of her significant other in the rebound section of a love story. According to Jennifer in the
01:03:50documentary, he was going to be the rebound number with me, the glass house. She tells wardrobe
01:03:56supervisor Sean Breezy Barton during rehearsals, and he was like, I'm friends with Marc. Marc
01:04:01Anthony and Lopez were wed from 2004 till 2014. Max and M, the pair's 16 year old twins are shared
01:04:08in the scene from rebound. Someone is shown harming their partner while intoxicated,
01:04:12but the vocalist never says who the song and scene are about in particular. The documentary
01:04:17reveals that in addition to Ramos declining the chance to star in a love story, Taylor Swift
01:04:21declined to be in the movie as well. There were also no cameos available for Jason Momoa, Jennifer
01:04:26Coolidge, Lizzo, Vanessa Hudgens, Ariana Grande, or Snoop Dogg. I don't want to force anybody to do
01:04:32this who doesn't go, this is going to be fun. Lopez said before telling her manager, Benny Medina,
01:04:37nobody wants to say no to me, Benny. I get that. But when an actor doesn't like a script,
01:04:42doesn't think it's good enough, or is worried about it, that's what they'll say.
01:04:46The documentary demonstrates how Lopez had an agreement to be financed for her project,
01:04:50but it fell through. Since she had no one else to lend money for the project,
01:04:54she made the decision to contribute $20 million of her own funds. Making a movie with your own
01:04:59money is the most famous cardinal sin in Hollywood, Affleck says in a voiceover.
01:05:04According to Elaine Goldsmith Thomas, JLo's producing partner, the reason behind JLo's
01:05:09self-inflicted payment was that she was about investing in herself, literally. Amazon eventually
01:05:14purchased it for an unknown sum. JLo was also advised by Jane Fonda, who appears in both the
01:05:19movie and documentary, to withhold certain details of her personal life from Ben. In the 2005 comedy
01:05:25Monster in Law, Fonda co-starred with JLo. Fonda expresses her worries to JLo, and says she feels
01:05:31guarded in their relationship. I want you to know that I don't entirely know why, but I feel
01:05:35invested in you and Ben, and I really, really, really want this to work, Fonda tells Lopez over
01:05:40the phone. JLo describes how Fonda is very protective of me, and she felt like, you're
01:05:45putting yourself out there to get beat up again, in another confessional scene. Fonda tells Lopez
01:05:50again how much she feels about her and Ben Affleck when she's in the hair and makeup chair after
01:05:55confirming her role in a love story. I get real scared, you know, with all that stuff about the
01:06:00Grammys and he looks unhappy and I'm like, oh my god, what's happening, says Fonda. Lopez replies,
01:06:05nothing, he was like, I've become the symbol of the beleaguered man. Ben would later make light of
01:06:11the incident in a 2024 Super Bowl commercial. Jen admits she didn't love herself. Lopez is quite
01:06:17open about the heartache she went through after she and Ben Affleck called off their wedding
01:06:21throughout the documentary. I feel like I lost the love of my life. I felt like I lost the best
01:06:26friend that I ever had, she said while also talking about her song Broken Like Me, and I
01:06:31couldn't talk to him for so many years and that was the hardest part. In an intimate moment,
01:06:35she admits that she didn't think much of herself. J-Lo adds that she was able to love herself
01:06:39because of Affleck. What he says and what he saw in me, what he made me believe about myself,
01:06:45only comes from love, because nobody else could make me see that about myself, Lopez said through
01:06:50tears. It's really touching. The world didn't think highly of me because I didn't think highly
01:06:55of myself. Jennifer Lopez was caught holding hands with her new bodyguard. J-Lo, yeah, she is back
01:07:02at it again, single, ready to mingle, and I know it just feels like yesterday that she announced
01:07:10that her and Ben Affleck are divorcing. That divorce is not finalized, but you know, she was
01:07:16spotted with this new bodyguard holding hands, and we got some tea, guys, because, uh, yeah,
01:07:23looks like this man is married, so he's not just a single bodyguard that J-Lo's getting close with,
01:07:29he's a married man. Oh my goodness, J-Lo, like, is she shooting her shot here? Like,
01:07:36she's holding hands with him, and I know, like, the pictures show that he's helping her get out
01:07:41of a car, but there's other photos and clips that show them, you know, really close together,
01:07:46so people are thinking, you know, is something going on here, and that's why they've been
01:07:51flooding social media. All her fans, people, critics of J-Lo flooding social media, sharing their thoughts
01:07:59about J-Lo and this new man. Why is everybody freaking out? Well, because he's young, he's a decent
01:08:06looking guy, you know, he's got a solid build, especially her female fans are loving this man.
01:08:12Ladies just love him. He's actually been part of J-Lo's team for about a year now, so he's not
01:08:17that new, and he's been around with J-Lo's recent projects, you know, with her movie Unstoppable,
01:08:23and he's also been around while she was dealing with, and still dealing with, her divorce drama
01:08:28with Ben Affleck. But I do have some more details about that, you know, if there was some overlap
01:08:34with her and this new bodyguard, and if it had anything to do with J-Lo not wanting to be
01:08:40married to Ben, or Ben, you know, getting jealous of this guy. Yeah, there's a whole lot of stuff
01:08:45there to unpack. I'll get to that in a second, but for now, it looks like that this bodyguard guy
01:08:52has become one of J-Lo's favorites when it comes to people in her entourage. She likes to travel
01:08:59with an entourage, the same faces you see on a regular basis around her, but this guy, yeah, looks
01:09:07like he's become a favorite real quick. And everybody's wondering, why is he a favorite? Are we
01:09:13seeing a bodyguard that's just really good at doing his job, so J-Lo's like, hey, I want you
01:09:19around because you're really good at protecting me, and keeping me safe? Or is there something
01:09:24going on here? We know that J-Lo jumps from relationship to relationship, right? Jennifer has
01:09:30filed for divorce from Ben Affleck, and that, of course, closed off that chapter in her life. I
01:09:36think she is done with marriage and serious relationships. Right now, a lot of reports are
01:09:42saying that she's focusing on herself, and maybe she's ready to get back in the dating pool for
01:09:48just some casual fun. Nothing too serious, though, and people are thinking, though, like, J-Lo, like,
01:09:55give it some time at least, you know? Heal a little bit. Taking a look at some of the comments online,
01:10:02this one user, Tornado Chaser, says, I don't understand how women can move on from relationship
01:10:08to relationship so quickly. My sister is like that. After she divorced her first husband,
01:10:15she married husband number two in less than a year. So, yeah, her sister is kind of getting
01:10:22compared to J-Lo here, and it is hard to understand. I know for some people they do it,
01:10:30and it's successful for sure, but the thing is, J-Lo doesn't have a track record of doing this,
01:10:36jumping from one relationship to another relationship so quick, especially marriage,
01:10:41and having it work out. We just haven't seen that. There's been, like, four divorces that she's gone
01:10:46through. Someone also left this comment and said, you knew what people were thinking. Yeah, possibly
01:10:53this was a stunt by J-Lo to just stay in the public eye, get people talking, and just get some
01:10:59publicity around her. Because, yeah, her public image had taken a big hit, especially leading
01:11:07down to the whole announcement of her divorcing Ben Affleck, and she released that documentary
01:11:15about the greatest love story never told, and all of that stuff, as well as all these reports and
01:11:21clips coming out about J-Lo being rude, not just to her staff, but also to people in general. So,
01:11:28there was, like, this whole media blitz against J-Lo, and this could be, you know, being spotted
01:11:34with this new bodyguard. This could be a way for people to start talking about her in a positive
01:11:39light again. Like, oh, who's this man? Oh, I hope she gets with him. But, yeah, he's married. Anyways,
01:11:44moving on to another comment. Debbie Wentink says, there's a picture of them on Legion Media
01:11:51where she walks next to him with her hand inside his elbow as if they are in a relationship,
01:11:59the way she used to walk with Ben. The bodyguard is married, but we all know a marriage doesn't
01:12:05stop J-Lo. Oh, yeah. Okay, lots to unpack here, because this is insinuating that, because J-Lo
01:12:12is close with her bodyguard, that she doesn't care about his relationship, and she's, like,
01:12:20really trying to shoot her shot, locking arms with him. Like, just imagine what this guy's
01:12:26wife, this bodyguard's wife, could be thinking when she sees him with J-Lo so close. And, yeah,
01:12:34celebrities have done this a lot, where they get really close with people that they work with,
01:12:38and right away, boom, they just cut ties with their spouse and move on to their new partner. Is this
01:12:46happening with J-Lo and the bodyguard? I guess only time will tell, guys. And another comment
01:12:51that I wanted to highlight was this one from Closet Energy Report says, she's trying too hard.
01:12:58Nothing will distract from her connection to Diddy. Oh, they brought Diddy into this.
01:13:03Cancellation of the tour due to poor ticket sales and elections fiasco that brought many celebrity
01:13:10clowns down to earth. So, yeah, they brought up Diddy. People have been saying that J-Lo knew
01:13:20all along what Diddy was capable of, and everything that she's doing now is just a big
01:13:26distraction, whether it's releasing movies or cancelling concerts, trying to fix her public
01:13:32image, everything to try to make her look better. Yeah. But, again, still a lot of speculation with
01:13:40this one, but definitely something to keep an eye out for. Let's see what happens in the future,
01:13:46especially with this whole Diddy drama and how it's unfolding, if J-Lo is going to be caught
01:13:52in the crossfires with that. Sarcastic Marylander commented and says, has she picked out a wedding
01:13:58gown? Of course, alluding to the fact that J-Lo, it looks like she falls quickly in love with people
01:14:05and just doesn't take the time to heal. And at the moment, she's still in the Beller mansion,
01:14:11by the way, that she shared with Ben Affleck. I think Ben moved out and he's just like, OK, J-Lo,
01:14:17keep the house. But this mansion, guys, it is no joke. It is a serious, amazing property, man.
01:14:23And it's been up for sale for months now. But who knows? Maybe she'll keep it around because
01:14:30she's going to get linked with another guy real soon. Who knows? That mansion has a lot of room
01:14:39for as many men that J-Lo wants in her life. Also, rumor has it that he actually never worked with
01:14:47J-Lo back when she was with Ben initially. So this whole bodyguard working with her wasn't a
01:14:55thing at the beginning. And he was introduced later, I guess, probably at the tail end of the
01:15:01relationship. And some people are speculating that this did, in fact, affect her and Ben's
01:15:08relationship. But not enough details are out about this for me to make a decision on it. So again,
01:15:14that is just speculation. It's possible that something happened between J-Lo and the bodyguard
01:15:21that got under Ben Affleck's skin later on in their marriage. Or on the flip side, maybe Ben
01:15:26Affleck just felt a little bit intimidated because of this new guy. He was constantly around his
01:15:32wife, J-Lo. Either way, again, it's hard to notice that something is going on here. Again, whether
01:15:40or not it is a close bond and relationship that they're building, J-Lo and the bodyguard. Or if
01:15:47it's just a professional relationship and this guy's just really good at doing his job. Still
01:15:52too early to tell. I'll definitely be following this one, guys. Speaking of the bodyguard though,
01:15:58and I mentioned that he was married. So he has a whole life outside of J-Lo, which only makes
01:16:05things a lot more complicated. And it's kind of scary because J-Lo has a track record of dating
01:16:13men who she's worked with. Like even one of her ex-husbands, Chris Judd, started off as one of
01:16:19her backup dancers. And she noticed him. They fell in love, got married, and boom! Divorce less than
01:16:26a year later. So can we blame people for wondering if this bodyguard might have become her new
01:16:32shoulder to lean on? You know, sometimes when a woman is going through a difficult time, there's
01:16:39always like that guy friend that's like, hey, if you ever need a shoulder to lean on, I'm here for
01:16:45you. And he's like secretly in the background. Again, this guy could be 100% the most committed
01:16:51man to his wife. But I've just seen too much doing celebrity gossip. You know, that whole thing with
01:16:58Ariana Grande and her ex and Ethan Slater and his ex-wife and child. They just up and left. And
01:17:07he got together with Ariana. Yeah, this could get messy. And as much as I would like to give
01:17:15these guys the benefit of the doubt, again, I've just seen too much to make that assumption right
01:17:20off the bat that, oh, nothing's going on here. But I do hope I am wrong in this case. But hey,
01:17:27maybe we're all just kind of reading into it a little bit too much. We'll see. But so I think
01:17:33we can all agree that if this bodyguard does stick around for the long haul, it'll be pretty hard not
01:17:39to notice if things develop into a little bit more between him and JLo personally.
