It’s been 20 years considering that Jennifer Lopez introduced her 3rd workshop cd, 2002’s This Is Me … Then, a lot of which was motivated by her then-relationship withBen Affleck Now, the vocalist is assessing the cd as well as her revived love with her now-husband.
“It is a little bit like the Twilight Zone. It doesn’t happen,” Lopez informed Apple Music’s Zane Lowe today. “That album, This Is Me… Then really captured a moment in time where I fell in love with the love of my life. It’s all right there on the record. I didn’t even realize what was happening and what I was doing. It was just every day going from the set to the recording studio, doing the thing, being in love, him coming into the studio, writing ‘I’m Glad,’ […] Me tweaking the lyrics with him. Every single song that we wrote there, me writing ‘Dear Ben’, it was such a special moment in time to have captured.”
As anticipated, the Good Will Hunting star “loves” the cd. “He knows all of the words. It’s crazy. He also was with me while I was creating it,” she shared. “You’re listening to the demos in the car. You’re listening to the mixes. ‘I wrote this today. What do you think of this?’ It was that over and over again for two years while we were together. He knows it so well and he loves it so much. He’s my biggest fan, which is awesome, and supporter. When he came back into my life again, the same thing happened where I felt so inspired and so overtaken with emotion that it was just pouring out of me.”
Lopez additionally shared that her 2004 break up with Affleck was the “biggest heartbreak of my life.” “I honestly felt like I was going to die,” she claimed, keeping in mind that she could not execute tracks from This Is Me … Then due to the fact that it was as well agonizing. “It sent me on a spiral for the next 18 years where I just couldn’t get it right. But now, 20 years later, it does have a happy ending. It has the most would-never-happen-in-Hollywood ending.”
Now, the multihyphenate is preparing to launch her brand-new cd This Is Me … Now, which was motivated by her marital relationship as well as just how much she has actually expanded for many years. “I think what the message of the album is very much if you were wondering if you have, like me at times, lost hope, almost given up, don’t. Because true love does exist and some things do last forever and that’s real,” she claimed.
