People.com is reporting they're living separately. If it's on people it's legit, as it doesn't report bullshit like National Enquirer or In Touch do, for example. I fucking hate this. I hope they make it, I ship them so hard.

They both actively work so I can understand living separately. Doesn't mean things are bad.

She has a movie coming out Friday and Benny Medina loves nothing more than planting a scandalous rumor in the press during a project release from her. I wouldn't be surprised if this was his doing. They're both still wearing their wedding rings and were all smiles together yesterday.

Honestly considering how social media has been literally destroying her this year, it wasn't hard for people to believe her marriage might be over as well. She really needs to hire some sort of PR firm to rehabilitate her personal image with the younger people. I have never seen so much hate against anyone on such a short span of time; also can't say she didn't help the narrative a bit - the doc was just a terrible idea all around and some of her recent public appearances haven't been handled well either.

The hate started before the doc. There was nothing in that doc that could ever warrant this kind of unhinged hate she's getting either.
Her only recent public appearance was at the Met Gala and you would've thought she committed murder on the red carpet with the way people are treating her for how she simply answered a reporter's question.

There is no PR firm that will be able to reverse this. Sadly most of these people do not think for themselves and love hopping on the bandwagon.
Wasn’t our generation supposed to be the positive, accepting one? So much for that lol

I saw the “news” and was sad to see the impending negativity continue that’s been happening since her album’s release.
I guess the main “clue” is that they haven’t been seen together, but then one of the articles goes on to say that Jennifer just filmed KOTSW, did promo for ATLAS which comes out, and was a co-chair for the MET Gala. Meanwhile, Ben was filming the sequel to THE ACCOUNTANT, so couldn’t that be the reason why?
Anyways, I’m excited for ATLAS and the new tour. I haven’t seen her live before, so I hope she will do a mixture of the hits and a good size of her new album which I love.
I hope she can release a new single too?

I don't remember exactly, but I would think it started arounf the album's release. There’s been a JLO hate train for the past few years now. It only got louder and intensified when she started rolling out her album. That’s how hate trains work. Whatever the target releases or does is immediately torn apart and over analyzed. If Beyoncé, Rihanna or Taylor etc put 20 million dollars of their own money after white corporations told them “no” and then later was able to get Amazon to buy it, they would all be praised for being able to pull off such a power move. Especially as a woman and WOC in JLO’s case. Instead, JLO gets criticized for doing so and gets “who does she think she is”, “self absorbed”, “narcissist” narratives. As if the point of being an artist isn’t to write about your life and experiences. Beyoncé can do a whole album about Jay-Z’s infidelity and be applauded. JLO writing about rekindling with the love of her life 20 years later gets her eviscerated. You know they’ve officially lost the plot when they’re literally on TikTok right now calling for her downfall over this interaction. I wish I could tell you I’m exaggerating but I’m not. I guess it’s not as bad as them blaming JLO last month for a tiktoker dying of cancer. That one was a doozy.

I mean everyone famous will always have a "hate train" but the doc has been ridiculed and ripped to shreds and at least on my timelines that's when it moved from the usual hate to massive vitriol. She's just been coming off very unrelatable and entitled in most of her appearances. Do I think it's all deserved? No. But ultimately how the public perceives you is a huge component of how your releases are gonna fare.
That last album probably killed her music career but she was still doing well with movies so I still think they need to try and get her more in the public's good graces.

How and where? The only appearances she made in the last few months was on talk shows to promote the album. Where was the entitlement?. I’m seriously asking because outside of regular promo rounds, JLO minds her business and works. Never once responding to the criticism and lies spread on her name daily, or clapping back at the disgusting vitriol in her comment section when she has every reason to.

For someone whom ppl love to claim is such a "raging bitch", she handled the reporter's disrespectful question and demeanor with such grace. Major props to Simu as well for interjecting and giving Jennifer her flowers. You can tell she needed those kind words and got emotional. Im sure Tiktokers will find a way to make this moment negative though.

Im sure Tiktokers will find a way to make this moment negative though. She looked quite sad actually and the way this was handled makes it seems that not only she's aware of all the rumours but also that the split maybe real.

I’m glad Jimmy Kimmel asked her about Idol. That was still my favorite time of her career and I’d love to see her back as a judge someday, although unlikely I realize.

I enjoyed the film. Lots of action and humor which I loved, and kudos to Jennifer for all that acting in those spinning action scenes. Glad the film is doing well with audiences.
Can’t believe the tour is almost here!

Waiting for Tonight will forever be one amazing pop record. Probably will always be my fave JLo tune.
That debut album had a lot of gems.

Embarrassing that she even had to address this. Why was Gen Z acting like they knew what was in a New York bodega in the 80's?.

I hope everything is okay. There's been whispers that Ben relapsed and the new house he's currently renting has been set up like a private rehab for him. With the "divorce" rumors being a cover up. He seemed off at the Tom Brady roast.
Sucks that this is just going to give haters/the media more ammo though to rip her apart.

I really don't understand why ticket sales were so low. She had the "It's My Party" tour in 2019 and that seemed to do well. I know it's the thing to hate her right now but she was still successful touring wise when 5 years ago. I know it's mostly chronically online people spewing the hatred but they are not the only ones buying (or I guess not buying) the tickets. I just do not get it.
