Jennifer Lopez gets real about her painful split from her now-husband, Ben Affleck. In a chat with Apple Music's Zane Lowe, the singer opens up about her new album, 'This Is Me... Now,' a follow-up to her 2002 album, 'This Is Me... Then,' which she wrote and recorded while she and Ben were together. J.Lo reveals that after they ended their two-year engagement in 2004, she thought she was 'going to die' and couldn't perform songs from that album anymore. But since the two rekindled their romance in 2021, the actress says she was inspired to create her new album. Jennifer says, '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.'
