Lopez reflected on wanting to “get back in the studio” ahead of her new project ‘This Is Me…Now: A Love Story’
Jennifer Lopez is citing her relationship with Ben Affleck as one of the reasons she was motivated to “get back in the studio.”
The multi-hyphenate, 54, caught up with Entertainment Tonight about This Is Me… Now: A Love Story, her new cinematic original which marks a musical and visual reimagining of her life events that inspired the upcoming album, This is Me… Now.
“When Ben and I got back together, it was just like, ‘I want to make music again, I want to get back in the studio,’” Lopez said. “I was very, very inspired.”

“Half the time, I was thinking, like, ‘This is amazing! I am so excited that I’m doing this!’ And then half time I was like, ‘Why are you doing this? You are so crazy,” Lopez shared of her thought process while making the new cinematic original.
During a Thursday press conference with director Dave Meyers, Lopez also revealed that Affleck helped quiet her doubts while piecing together her latest ambitious effort.
“I was like, ‘I don’t write, I don’t do this.’ He was like, ‘You do, you write, you direct, you produce, you choreograph, you do all the things. Start stepping into that, start owning a little bit of who you are,’” she recalled Affleck telling her.
