Jennifer Lopez Responds to Critics in the Midst of Ben Affleck Separation
Jennifer Lopez knows she’s going to dance again, despite what her haters say.
The Hustlers actress—who is in the midst of a divorce from Ben Affleck—has had a tumultuous year, both personally and professionally, canceling her This is Me…Now tour just a few months before her breakup.
But despite her “whole f–king world” exploding, she’s retained important perspective even as critics on social media take aim at her.
“I know that everything that’s being written and said about me, and all the conjecture of who I am as a person, is not who I am,” Jennifer told Nikki Glaser in a conversation for Interview magazine published Oct. 9. “I learned that a long time ago.”
In some ways being in the public eye for three decades has given her important clarity. She added, “And social media, because it came along after I had been in the public eye for a while, I don’t take it as seriously as everybody else.”
Amid all of the outside noise from the public, the 55-year-old said that it’s those around her knowing who she really is that keeps her grounded.
