Jennifer Lopez shook the world with the news of her new album «This Is Me… Now». Recently, she gave an interview that immediately went viral. However, it’s not just about J.Lo’s music but also her appearance. People everywhere started discussing her «unrecognizable» face.
Why ’This Is Me… Now’ may be her final album.
In a recent interview, Jennifer Lopez shared some surprising news for fans eagerly awaiting her upcoming album, “This Is Me… Now”. The multi-talented star hinted that this album might signal the end of her music career.
Discussing the album’s creation process, Lopez revealed that they explored various album cover designs to create something special for her fans, ensuring they had collector’s items to cherish. However, she admitted uncertainty about her future in music, stating that she doesn’t know if she’ll ever make another album after this one.
In a light-hearted moment, Lopez jokingly mentioned not wanting her manager Benny Medina to know about her thoughts, saying, “Don’t tell Benny that that’s what I’m thinking — this might be my last album ever.”
Reflecting on her previous album, “This Is Me… Then,” released 22 years ago during her relationship with Ben Affleck, Lopez acknowledged the evolution of her personal and professional life since then. Despite the possibility of this being her final album, she remains open to new opportunities, emphasizing that while she would “never say never,” she put her heart and soul into this project and feels fulfilled. For Lopez, “This Is Me… Now” symbolizes the end of one era and the beginning of another.
The star had a minimal makeup look.
Dressed elegantly in all-black with gold hoop earrings, Lopez looked stunning as she shared insights about her latest projects. However, her appearance sparked mixed reactions. Some viewers found her look “unrecognizable” and “different” from her usual glamorous style.
Comments on social media platforms reflected a mix of opinions on Jennifer Lopez’s recent interview appearance. Some viewers were taken aback by her minimal makeup, with comments like, “Her eyes look weird,” and “Where are her eyelashes?” questioning the departure from her usual glamorous style. Others speculated about possible reasons for her appearance, with remarks like, “What happened to her face?” and “She looks tired.”
Fans flocked to the comments section to share their thoughts. «I feel like she did her own makeup… Like she didn’t even put on lashes, or at least mascara…like she tried it!».
«Now understand when my grandma told me once, literally one day you wake up and you start looking your age. Her day got here,» commented one. «This is why celebrities need to stop using filters. Once you see the real them, it shocks us how „old“ they look. JLo looks great for her age,» added another.
However, amidst these critiques, there were also positive reactions, with some praising Lopez’s overall look as «beautiful» and «gorgeous.» These comments show how people see things differently when it comes to celebrities. Some might not like changes from the norm, while others appreciate authenticity and natural beauty.
«She’s 54! Get over it! She’s got a lil wrinkle here and there…she looks great even with less makeup,» one wrote.«She looks beautiful embracing her age she looks more natural and more her age she’s glowing,» added another.
Someone wrote that people will always find something to criticise celebrities for. «If she wears too much makeup people say ’Why is she wearing so much make up? Why is she trying to be young?’ And still hate when her makeup is minimal!»
She also talked about her husband Ben Affleck.
Lopez also shared that her recent reunion with her husband, Ben Affleck, inspired her to return to songwriting. She mentioned that music tends to flow more when she’s happy and in love. Affleck’s unwavering support was pivotal during the creative process, as Lopez referred to him as her “biggest fan and cheerleader.” Therefore, the album holds sentimental value for her, symbolizing a chapter in both her love life and career.
Some comments suggested that Affleck had caused Lopez to appear older. One commenter wrote, “Ben has aged her,” while another remarked, “She seems fixated on Ben.” Conversely, others disagreed, highlighting Lopez’s natural beauty regardless of whether she was dressed up or in more casual attire.
Jennifer Lopez has been at the peak of fame for over 20 years, and every move she makes is discussed worldwide. Her personal life is no exception. Recently, people started questioning why Ben Affleck looks unhappy in photos with his wife. JLo couldn’t withstand the scrutiny and provided an answer.
Dame Maggie Smith dies aged 89 – Fans startled by her final public appearance
Dame Maggie Smith dies aged 89 – Fans startled by her final public appearance
Dame Maggie Smith, Downtown Abbey and Harry Potter star, died aged 89, her family confirms.
A two time Oscar winner and a legend of the stage and screen, Smith was regarded one of the greatest actors of her time. She started her acting career on stage at the Oxford Playhouse and went on to make a name for herself and remained under the limelight for a stunning number of years.
The news of her sudden passing was shared by her two sons, Toby Stephens and Chris Larkin.
“She died quietly this morning, Friday, September 27, in the hospital. A deeply private individual, she passed away surrounded by loved ones,” their joint statement read.
“We would like to take this opportunity to thank the wonderful staff at the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital for their care and unstinting kindness during her final days,” it continued.
“We thank you for all your kind messages and support and ask that you respect our privacy at this time,” Smith’s sons concluded.
Throughout her long and rich career, Smith appeared in feature films such as Sister Act, The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel and more recently Thaddeus O’Sullivan’s The Miracle Club.
Back in 2009, Smith disclosed with the public that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer. She opened up about receiving treatments and filming scenes as Professor Minerva McGonagall in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince at the same time.
“I used to go to treatment on my own, and nearly everybody else was with somebody,” she told Tim Teeman. “I wouldn’t have liked that. Why would you want to make anybody sit in those places?”
She had also opened up about her own mortality. “I was relieved to be the age I was because by now you feel like it’s all over anyway.
“That’s why I hated seeing young people receiving treatment [at the Royal Marsden Hospital, London]. I couldn’t bear that, it didn’t seem fair. To be honest, you feel so ghastly you wouldn’t mind dying a lot of the time.”
Smith was married twice. Her second husband, screenwriter Beverley Cross, whom she considered the great love of her life, passed away in 1998, leaving her mourning his loss until her own passing.
She wasn’t known as someone who was spotted in public often, so her last public appearance left her fans startled.
It was at the Wimbledon men’s singles final that Smith was spotted in public. Dressed elegantly, in a navy blue shirtdress with a stylish dot pattern on it accessorized with a blue jacket and black leather heels, she stunned many.
The photos of her and her stunning choice of outfit, which she had completed with a pink lipstick, received plenty of comments. “So elegant!” one person commented. “You [look] so beautiful,” another added.
Following her passing, tributes came pouring in. Prime Minister Keir Starmer was among the first to share his condolences, saying Smith “was beloved by so many for her great talent, becoming a true national treasure whose work will be cherished for generations to come.”
Hugh Bonneville, fellow Downtown Abbey co-star, said: “Anyone who ever shared a scene with Maggie will attest to her sharp eye, sharp wit and formidable talent.
“She was a true legend of her generation and thankfully will live on in so many magnificent screen performances. My condolences to her boys and wider family.”
Smith’s passing represents an immense loss for the acting world. May she rest in peace.
