    Exactly, she is a performer, not an artist. A great performer, but not a creative.

    JLO: You should know better
    Public: you should know better than to condemn n shame a reporter whose job it is to ask you about a relationship you PROFIT from.

    I couldn't keep watching both of the films... I didn't know why I was feeling so embarrassed about it when the history is not even about me😂
    Now I feel sorry for her and more sorry for her husband that he has to deal with her bs😂

    After watching the documentary and seeing how similar a narcissist she is to my mom, I think I have a good guess on why she's the one filing the divorce. I did think Ben would've done it because of how annoyed he seemed by the whole thing. But I think now that its done and it flopped, he doesn't care and wants to move on. While I'm sure she's acting very dramatic like we saw her do, but like times a million, considering the heat she's getting. And Ben's probably like, "that thing never mattered" since to him, he made it clear, being at home and the relationship itself is what matters to him, not the media and not the art. Jen thinks she's an artist and that she put her heart and soul into this thing, and is so offended by Ben's nonchalant dismissal of it all, that she's taken it as an attack, thinking he doesn't have the same values as her, that he doesn't care about the art or the message in it because of how he's acting. Her behavior seems from bad parenting and middle child issues turning into mental health issues after she grew up and mentioned she was abused and "other things" which I think we all know is likely sexual assault. Now this doesn't mean she can act an asshole to everybody like she does. Believe me, I know, cuz I'm dealing with this with my mom. Everything is about her, and anyone who disagrees is against her. That's my take, and ultimately.. its sad. I think to Ben all he cared about was her, but she is too caught up within herSELF that she doesn't see that. You can have all the money in the world and still end up miserable.
    I'd be a whole lot happier with that money, personally, though.. XD

    I agree. Strangely enough nobody knows her singing voice. She is not interesting person and we really don't care about her life. I would say acting is her forte. She can do dance routines but she is not natural dancer or have rhythm. That is my observation since the 90 s and still is.

      You are giving a hater vibe ,yes she is ,yes she is not great singer but let us stay objective thw same person that you are calling not interested has made it to the industry early 30s, how many people do you know made it late in Hollywood? She is mostly known to be great performer and now you are saying ,she is not rythmic ,not a good dancer .you're a hypocrite ! She has relevant that's why you're here if not you wouldn't have clicked

  • @lillyrose3545
    @lillyrose3545 3 місяці тому +6

    1. She is a narcissist.
    2. She thought Bennifer 2.0 made her relevant again
    3. It’s not the early 2000’s. It’s been 20 years
    4.The collective memory moves on to the next thing real quick
    She tried too hard, and too big. This was supposed to be her big comeback, but Ben didn’t want any of that. She didn’t care about his personal boundaries. She changed the rules after they wed.
    I thought her and Puff were a stunt. She was corny as hell and trying to be “hood”.
    I’m a white girl, and I am not the only white person who loves rap, r&b, and hip hop of the late 90’s early 2000’s. We were waving our Rollie’s to the sky like we WERE from the hood. lmao 😂

    The greatest love story…. Is about finding her self-love. After finding that, you’re expected to be able to LOVE another, which means you sacrifice, compromise, alter your priorities for the welfare of another. The NOT easy aspect of it.Ben’s sicknesses of anxiety, depression and maladaptions is rearing its head. Prove your love JLo.Here’s the test on your grand proclamations.Oh no I just diagnosed the root of their marital problems. He’s an alcoholic and she’s a workaholic.

    She's not a good actress or a good singer. She is all about being a diva. She is overdressed 98% of the time. She is not relatable.

    What exactly is the big deal about being "from the Bronx"??? Why is that a thing? I find nothing special about the Bronx. Its just a neighborhood in a big city.
    And what WP like JLo?? Did someone actually tell you that? Thats a huge assumption

    • @tish-vs8bj
      @tish-vs8bj 3 місяці тому +1

      I'm guessing it's the majority of her film making that's mostly mainstream and caters to that particular demographic; in most of her films, she plays a Caucasian woman... When it comes to her music, that's her J.Lo persona and that persona always reps The Bronx.

    Bens found out, he's been used from the word GO, from back then... Ain't never been about love, it's about deflection from the 2000s Diddy shooting in a nightclub the reflected glory of Bens career and A list status...
    I suspect JLow has known all this 2000s business was coming back to bite and on the horizon, a good while ago, before getting back with Ben. Like Diddy, calling himself brother Love, giving artists their publishing rights back. Preparations were being made by both JLow and Diddy.
    I suspect Ben was being used as a human shield with his status as an A lister and Hollywood connections, distract the publics attention with the "Love story". JLow thought it would be her way out of accountability, when a lady was shot in the face allegedly by Diddy, JLow allegedly carried and passed him the gun...
    This is looking like it's badly backfired on JLow....
    Hmmmmmmmnnnn
    My heart goes out to the woman who was needlessly shot.
    That is why on the pap shots, JLow looks so anxious..
    Cause she is looking at serious jail time...

    New subscriber here! Great take- i enjoy you commentary! I agree that based on what I’ve seen from JLo, she just doesn’t seem like an interesting person - AND THAT’S OK. A lot of people aren’t. She reminds me of the Kardashians- lots of fame and money and beauty (by the times’ standards anyway) and they just are not very interesting. They are kinda boring. (I’m boring myself so hey- real recognizes real! 😎).

    I agree that although she dances very well, she is not a great singer or good actress. Her success is based on being hard-working, a perfectionist and that she has not been intimidated by bad reviews and that is why she has moved forward. Not everyone currently has a net income of $400 million dollars from her work.
    Furthermore, her success has made the men who have accompanied her become self-conscious about her and feel small when compared to her personality and her talent for her business.
    I feel sorry for Ben, or tell me, who loves a cheating alcoholic.

    Not sure why you think you can speak for all white women because I’ve loved Jennifer throughout her entire career, regardless of what role she was playing or what lane she was in. NYC Jlo, Hood Jlo, PDiddy’s Jlo, whatever. She lost me as a fan when those stories started coming out about her being such a Karen. Also, Beyoncé is not a “creative” she’s a great singer & dancer but doesn’t write music, play music or create the music.
