Jennifer Lopez is the modern day Liz Taylor: hopelessly romantic.
J.Lo met Ben Affleck on the set of “Gigli”/2002. She was still married to 2nd hubby, Chris(who?)Judd. Jen and Ben hit it off “BIG TIME”
From day 1, Jen and Ben were the tabloid “rage”; front page, week in and week out. Most thought the pairing was odd.
The 2 walked arm and arm down countless red carpets. They were everywhere. The public couldn’t get enough of “The Couple for the New Century”.
Ben and Jen announced their engagement in November 2002 to unbelievable fanfare.
Just days before their September 2003 wedding, 400+ invitations were sent out, the couple’s “Special Day” was cancelled.
By Christmas, J.Lo & Ben split for good.
“I lost my sense of self. I questioned if I belonged in show business. I thought maybe I did suck at everything. Our relationship was self-destructive”.
Jennifer Lopez dumped Ben, went on to new flame Diddy(not a joke), married Marc Anthony. A-Rod is the love of the moment.
Note to A-Rod: Don’t buy the NY Mets with co-partner Jenny from the Block. Note to Jen: A-Rod is a player. Plays the field.
