Jennifer Lopez is currently enjoying the acclaim of her successful film, Kiss of the Spider Woman, showcased at the Sundance Film Festival. However, she is also encountering significant challenges in her career. The 55-year-old actress has received a nomination for a Golden Raspberry Award (Razzie), which recognizes the worst films of the year. This recognition is particularly disheartening for her, especially after experiencing a series of setbacks, including critical reviews of her self-produced project, This Is Me... Now, and the cancellation of tour dates attributed to disappointing ticket sales. Nevertheless, J.Lo has reassured her fans, expressing the need to dedicate more time to her children during this challenging period.

Lopez is taking her recent movie failures ‘very badly’

A source informed RadarOnline regarding the unfortunate recognition, stating, “Jennifer is taking it very badly,” and noted that the news has caused her distress. “At this point, she feels like she can't catch a break. Last year was by far the toughest of her life.” The insider indicated that Jennifer Lopez feels particularly embarrassed by the Razzie nomination, especially in light of her recent marital issues with Ben Affleck. The source remarked, “Her ego is crushed.”

In spite of these personal challenges, J.Lo has sought comfort in her professional endeavours, notably in her role in Kiss of the Spider Woman, where she discussed the film's focus on love. During promotional interviews, she expressed that, even while navigating her own difficulties, she is profoundly touched by the film's themes of love, resilience, and the pursuit of strength in trying times, demonstrating her ability to resonate with the narrative on a personal level despite her off-screen struggles. Just weeks after her divorce was finalized, the singer acknowledged that the experience of falling in love remains “important” to her, as reported by RadarOnline.

Lopez’s movie was her lifelong dream

The artist known for "On The Floor" has previously articulated that this project represents a lifelong aspiration. She stated, “I have been anticipating the opportunity to participate in a grand MGM Hollywood musical, and I have finally achieved that goal.” Additionally, she emphasized the film's powerful message that “love heals all divides.”

In spite of their recent separation, Lopez appears to be taking steps to maintain a close connection with her former partner, Affleck, both emotionally and geographically. Reports indicate that the "Let's Get Loud" singer is considering purchasing a new residence in Brentwood, conveniently located near his home.

Sources have disclosed that Lopez is not yet prepared to entirely sever ties with their relationship and wishes to remain within the same affluent neighbourhood. Even if her prospective purchase does not materialize, it is reported that she is resolute in her intention to secure a property in proximity, suggesting that her bond with Affleck continues to hold importance in her life. A source informed the media, “Jennifer is behaving as if she has accepted this new phase in their relationship – yet she remains deeply in love with Ben.”
