‘This Is Me…Now: A Love Story’ Review: Jennifer Lopez Sells the Sizzle of Romance but Overcooks Her Personal Stake

and the , maximalism is clearly having a moment—and Jennifer Lopez is clearly taking note when it comes to her nail designs.J.Lo’s go-to nail artist, celebrity manicurist Tom Bachik, shared a behind-the-scenes look at the nail look for Lopez’s semi-autobiographical album and film . Dubbed a Latina mani by Bachik, the mixed-medium style is autobiographical, nodding to Lopez’s Puerto Rican heritage with Hispanic-Catholic symbolism.“It’s all in the details,” Bachik wrote in his caption revealing the manicure, and that it certainly is: The ornate design consists of classic Hispanic-Catholic iconography such as crosses, roses, rosaries, and the Virgin of the Sacred Heart overlaid on a medium-length squoval base.But that’s not all: Each middle finger was complete with literal hoop piercings.

Lizzo has revealed that she was never asked to cameo in Jennifer Lopez‘s new musical film despite reports that she was “unavailable”.In a scene in Jennifer Lopez’s The Greatest Love Story Never Told documentary on Amazon Prime Video, casting director Nancy Nayor is heard saying that Lizzo was among the many celebrities who were unavailable to star in Lopez’s upcoming musical film This Is Me… Now: A Love Story.Now, Lizzo has taken to TikTok to react to Nayor’s claims, saying: “Ain’t nobody told me nothing. Nobody asked me… JLo, I love you.”See her response via TikTok below.

Lizzo was reportedly one of the 11 celebs who turned down Jennifer Lopez‘s offer to appear in her Prime Video musical movie This Is Me… Now.

“The Greatest Love Story Never Told” when the Bronx-born diva questions just how much the public might care about her — and her much-hyped comeback album “This Is Me… Now” — in today’s pop landscape.After all, it has been 10 years since Lopez’s last studio LP, 2014’s “A.K.A.” — and a whole 22 years since 2002’s “This Is Me… Then” gave her two of her biggest hits in “Jenny from the Block” and “All I Have.” “I didn’t even have to make the record,” says Lopez, 54, in the doc, which premiered on Prime Video Monday night.“It’s not like anybody was clamoring for the next J.Lo record, you know what I mean?”Well, damn, she was sure right about that.Despite a major promotional campaign — including a star-studded short film, “This Is Me… Now: A Love Story,” that accompanied the album release — Lopez’s ninth studio LP made an absolutely abysmal debut on the Billboard 200 at No. 38.Just to put that into perspective, seven of the singer’s previous studio albums debuted in the Top 10 — with 2001’s “J.Lo” opening all the way up at No.

Jennifer Lopez has released her new documentary The Greatest Love Story Never Told on Prime Video and it gives fans an inside look at the making of her musical movie This Is Me… Now.

EXCLUSIVE: There is a hot bidding war heating up for Mattel’s animated take of Bob the Builder with heavy interest from Netflix, Amazon MGM Studios, and DreamWorks Animation and others.

In her Amazon Prime documentary, The Greatest Love Story Never Told, Jennifer Lopez gives fans a sneak peek into her life with hubby Ben Affleck. She shares how his love letters inspired her latest album and even shows off their £47 million Los Angeles mansion that they bought last May.

Todd Gilchrist editor With her ninth album “This Is Me…Now,” Jennifer Lopez promised to be more honest and vulnerable than ever before — a bookend to 2002’s “This Is Me…Then” in which she would “tell her side” of the romances that for decades have been one-dimensionally splashed across the pages of tabloids worldwide. Even as a lifelong fan, I was skeptical just how far back she’d draw the curtain given the meticulous control she’s exerted over her career.

Elsa Keslassy International Correspondent Music Box Films has acquired U.S. distribution rights to “Solo,” Sophie Dupuis’s queer love story of two rising drag performers starring Théodore Pellerin (“Beau Is Afraid) and Félix Maritaud (“120 BPM”). The edgy film — which is repped by SND and premiered at Toronto where it won best Canadian film — follows Simon, a rising star of Montreal drag queen scene, who falls in love with Olivier, the new recruit at the bar where he performs.

Jennifer Lopez has said that her new album ‘This Is Me… Now’ is the result of a “20 year journey” that has encompassed her “entire music career”. The album was released yesterday (February 16), alongside its accompanying film This Is Me… Now: A Love Story, a fictionalised account of Lopez’ love life with Ben Affleck. In an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Lopez spoke about the two projects, saying that they are all about her “reconciling” the last two decades of “growth and all the falling down and getting up” that she has done.

Jane Fonda isn’t afraid to give Jennifer Lopez her very honest opinion about her marriage with Ben Affleck!

You kinda have to love the Jennifer Lopez/Ben Affleck marriage and relationship. One is a pop superstar who craves the spotlight, and the other is an actor/director who had his fill of fame in the ’90s and seemingly craves his own privacy.

“This Is Me… Now” — the sequel to 2002’s “This Is Me… Then,” which dropped on Friday — is her first LP as Mrs.

Jennifer Lopez’s much-anticipated new album “This Is Me… Now” — the sequel to 2002’s “This Is Me… Then,” which drops on Friday — once again revolves around her Hollywood love affair with “Gigli” co-star Ben Affleck.But just like that much-maligned romantic comedy did in 2003, Lopez’s first studio album in 10 years — since 2014’s “A.K.A.” — proves yet again that sometimes art and amor just don’t mix.First off, like most sequels, it pales compared to the original.While it was hardly Janet Jackson’s “The Velvet Rope,” Rihanna’s “Anti” or Beyoncé’s anything, “This Is Me… Then” was probably J.Lo’s most “artistic” album.Yes, it had two hit hip-pop bops in “Jenny from the Block” — which infamously featured Affleck in its video — and the lip-licking LL Cool J collab “All I Have.” But Lopez’s third studio LP also found the singer-actress digging for more emotional depth than she had shown on either 1999’s “On the 6” or 2001’s “J.Lo.”But you know what? “On the 6” and “J.Lo” were ultimately better albums because Lopez played to her strengths with booty-shaking beats — the better to hoof it up in some killer couture — rather than heart-tugging feels.And “This Is Me… Now” leans even more into J.Lover rather than J.Lo.While the first single, “Can’t Get Enough” — another hip-pop bop that samples Alton Ellis’ ’60s reggae classic “I’m Still in Love with You” while nodding to Marcia Aitken’s 1977 version of the song— would’ve been a hit 20 years ago, the rest of Lopez’s ninth studio album finds the Bronx-born diva stuck in a romantic rut.

Jennifer Lopez just announced she’s heading out on her ‘This Is Me…Now: The Tour’ from June through August.Along the way, the New York City native will swing into Belmont Park, NY’s UBS Arena on Friday, Aug. 9, Newark, NJ’s Prudential Center on Saturday, Aug.

Mattel, the company behind the iconic doll, is looking to capitalize on its cinematic success by developing roughly 45 movies based on its games and toys. Moviegoers can look forward to Barney, Bob the Builder and He-Man hitting the big screen in the not-so-distant future. But as Hollywood raids toy store shelves to feed its insatiable hunger for IP, it’s worth noting that when it comes to this type of film, for every “Barbie”-sized smash there’s a “Battleship”-like bomb.

Thania Garcia Following the release of her new album, “This Is Me…Now,” and the premiere of its matching short film, Jennifer Lopez has announced she is heading out on tour. The Live Nation-produced trek marks the singer and actor’s first time on the road since 2019’s “It’s My Party” tour and sees her hitting arenas in over 30 cities across North America. Starting with Orlando’s Kia Center on June 26, Lopez will stop in cities including Miami, Los Angeles, Toronto and New York before wrapping up in Houston on Aug.
