00:00This is a very important lesson for people to learn there are no guarantees in life
00:05Even if you engrave it on a ring, it doesn't mean that it's guaranteed
00:11And this is something that JLo herself
00:14Learned because of the engagement ring the last one that she got from from Ben Affleck a couple of years ago
00:21This is a interview that has been resurfaced people at once. We broke the story that she is now filed divorce papers
00:29Cementing what we already knew for the last couple of months was in the works that they are going to be getting divorced
00:36But there was an interview that she gave back in 2022. This was
00:40After they got engaged. I don't know if it's before they got married, but they're engaged and she was
00:46talking to Apple Music about
00:50About her about some of the songs on her new album and what inspired them and that inspiration
00:56Was on her left hand and she talked talked about the engraving that Ben gave her. Yeah
01:02Some things just are not forever one of the songs that I wrote for the album
01:08Which is on the inside of this ring right here of my engagement ring that he gave me
01:13It says not period going period anywhere period
01:17Where my first diamond ring he gave me the pink diamond ring. It said sing
01:22and
01:24This one he put not period going period anywhere period because that's how he would sign his emails when we started talking again
01:32And don't worry. Don't worry. I'm not going anywhere
01:36Boy, you can't even look on Zane Lowe that the interview you could see his face was sort of like
01:41Hmm, I'm not gonna say anything about that because I don't know how this is gonna end up
01:45Later and two years from now, but look a lot of people are knocking like oh and see what happens Baba
01:52What else is he gonna put in the ring that's how we felt
01:56But there are no guarantees
01:58Yeah, and also she had revealed that so this engagement ring look she's had two from from Ben, right?
02:04The first one was a pink diamond
02:05The newer one was a green diamond and she said that that had significance too because green is her favorite color
02:11And she said that now it will always be her favorite color because you know of her rekindled romance with Ben
02:19So there's like everything's like falling through the cracks at this point
02:23Like how do you still have green as your favorite color now that you know, it's like not a lucky color anymore
02:28by the way
02:29I went back and looked at some of the lyrics of the song that was titled after what he had engraved and
02:36She said sincerely hugs and kisses
02:39Affectionately always after you I was a hopeless romantic been broken and damaged missed your calls still managed now
02:46I'm not going anywhere
02:49Well, well again, I don't know why people are knocking this like that's how they felt so they say it
02:55But again when Ben asked her to marry him he intended to be with her forever. It didn't work out. It's I mean
03:01It's embarrassing. I get it
03:03It's also the classic line when like a significant other tells you I can't live without you
03:09But then you break up and that person is still breathing and living and then you're like wow more lies like lies on lies
03:14Wow
03:16By the way, Ben Affleck
03:21Wow
03:22Ben Affleck got a mention last night at the DNC and home
03:27It was a reference to his divorce Mindy Kaling who was the MC
03:33Said this I think it wasn't some people think it was a shot at Ben. I don't think right, but here's what she said
03:46Get it go
03:54That's not a shot at Ben, but it was a very timely reference
03:57That was funny
03:57And by the way, Ben is hanging in there and some people think that he seems lighter now that the news of the divorce
04:04We got that's that's cold like he he and his other gen X
04:10Jane Garner were in on the East Coast dropping off violet at Yale where she's going and he got off
04:16that happy
04:19No, he could smile I mean he looks free as a bird which is
04:24Kind of tells you a lot about how this marriage has ended
04:29Maybe or maybe there's someone he saw
04:33By the car and he's smiling at
04:36Sure, I just think it's unfair to Jennifer to
04:41Jennifer Lopez right to say that he's smiling because now the news is out there getting right horse. Oh, come on area
04:48That's the thing. I love then tell you cut to that. I don't know it anywhere Wow Wow
04:53Were you directing the DNC last night?
04:56Hey, my name is Shaheen from South Carolina
04:58And honestly, I definitely think the not going anywhere line was sweet and very cute
05:05but obviously it never stood a chance for whatever they had going on and I hate that because
05:10I know Jen is a hopeless romantic
05:12She loves love and honestly at this point she's starting to collect these rings like sandals and the infinity gauntlet
05:19but I just really hope that like
05:22She finds the happiness. She deserves and been as well because I definitely think they meant that by when they first put it out there
05:28They were in love they went for it. It didn't work out. What are you gonna do not go for it?
05:34That's the best spin I can put on it
