Jennifer Lopez Shares Her Candid Response to Marriage Talk After Ben Affleck Split
The 55-year-old superstar had a cute, but candid, response to a fan who held up a sign reading, 'J. Lo, marry me?' She was onstage performing at one of her Up All Night tour dates in Europe when a concertgoer captured the iconic footage.

The video, posted on X on July 16, revealed her hilarious response. 'I think I'm done with that,' she said while laughing and making a 'never again' gesture. 'I've tried that a few times. Oh, anyway…'
You can't fault her for having that reaction. After her divorce from Affleck, which was finalized in January, Lopez is ready for a reset, and her tour is a big part of that. She also has a star-making role in Kiss of the Spider Woman, which is set to make a major award-show run in the fall. Let's just say, J.Lo isn't thinking about her exes right now.
Lopez's first marriage was to Ojani Noa, which lasted from 1997 to 1998. She followed up that short-lived union by marrying backup dancer and choreographer Cris Judd in 2001 — they divorced in 2003. She settled down with singer Marc Anthony in 2004, with whom she shares 17-year-old twins Max and Emme. After 10 years of marriage, they called it quits in 2014.
Still, her headline-generating reunion with Affleck might have been the one that broke her heart. They wed in 2022 after their first engagement went kaput in 2004. By spring 2024, they were done, even though their former $68 million estate hasn't found a buyer after over a year on the market. They recently pulled the listing, per Realtor.com.
Lopez described her 2004 split from Affleck to Today in 2014 as her 'first big heartbreak.' The former duo probably thought 18 years apart and a little self-reflection would be the key to a successful reconciliation. Unfortunately, the second time around wasn't as magical as they had hoped.Best of SheKnows

These Are Our Favorite Wristwatches Under $1,000
Few would have expected the Omega x Swatch Moonswatch to create such a furor both in and out of watch fandom when it was released in 2022, yet in just a few years, it has become one of the most desirable watches today due to its initial scarcity, dual brand recognition, and attractive price. Thankfully, it's much easier to buy a Moonswatch than when it was first released, including online, and the days of needing to pay scalpers for one through eBay are happily over. The Moonswatch takes its name and design from the classic Omega Speedmaster, also known as the Moonwatch, due to it being the first watch on the moon. Unlike the Omega Speedmaster, it's made of bioceramic (which feels a lot like plastic), doesn't have a sapphire crystal, has a quartz movement, is only water resistant to 30 meters, and most definitely hasn't been to the moon. None of this matters, though, as there's so much to like about the Moonswatch, from how it bridges the divide between normal people and watch fans, how it's practically guaranteed to stir up some kind of emotion, and that there's almost certainly a color scheme or design feature that will appeal. Just don't expect it to have the best build quality, or for it to feel anywhere near as expensive as its price suggests. Some also complain about the Velcro strap, but the branding looks great, and it's perfect to throw on your wrist when you're in a hurry. Once it's on, it's so light you barely know it's there. A rubber alternative strap is available if you do hate the Velcro, though. Even if you haven't heard of any other brands and watches on our list, I bet you have heard of the Omega x Swatch Moonswatch, but don't pass it off as just clever marketing. It's a Swatch at heart, and that makes it a fun and affordable gateway into watch ownership. Specs Case and strap: 42 mm, 20-mm band Movement: Quartz (ETA G10.212) Glass: Hesalite Water resistance: 3 ATM Warranty: 2 years Rotate North started out in 2019 with its Atlantic dive watch, but it has expanded its range to include several other models since then, and I love the Tempest aviation watch. Built in Germany and finished in the UK, the Tempest comes in a 40-mm case size with a choice of bright rubber straps, and I love the 12- and 24-hour markers on the dial, the date window, and the 300-meter water resistance rating. Perhaps best of all, Rotate North gives you the choice of movements. You can choose the Tempest with a Seiko NH35A automatic movement, which the company says it chose due to its 'exceptional durability, reliability, and impressive accuracy (-20 to +40 seconds per day) rating.' The movement will turn up more than once on this list for these very reasons. Alternatively, you can choose a Ronda 715LI quartz movement if you want the watch to always be ready to go, and to save a little on the purchase price, too. Specs Case and strap: 40 mm, 20-mm band Movement: Automatic (Seiko NH35A) or Quartz (Ronda 715LI) Glass: Sapphire Water resistance: 30 ATM Warranty: 2 years

Trump hails Swinney as ‘terrific guy' at Aberdeenshire golf course opening
Donald Trump hailed John Swinney as a 'terrific guy' after a brief meeting with the First Minister ahead of the official opening of his new golf course in Aberdeenshire. The Scottish Government said the SNP leader and the US President discussed the situation in Gaza, and posed for photographs in front of a saltire and the Stars and Stripes. READ MORE Trump to open new golf course on final day in Scotland Trump hints at whisky deal as he talks of 'great love' for Scotland during visit Bagpipes, ballrooms and bluster: the day Trump came to Turnberry In a short speech before cutting the ribbon on the first tee, Mr Trump asked Mr Swinney to stand up. "The First Minister is here. John, would you stand up? John Swinney is a terrific guy who loves golf, loves the people of this country, and we really appreciated it. Thank you for everything, John." The pair had met on Monday night as part of a business dinner at the course, which was also attended by Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar. During the ceremony, Mr Trump also spoke about Sean Connery's support for his Menie course, saying the James Bond star's backing helped overcome planning issues. The President said: "This has been an unbelievable development. "The land, they said it couldn't get zoned, it was an impossibility. "And Sean Connery said, 'Let the bloody bloke build his golf course'. "Once he said that everything came into line. John and I were talking about that last night." (Image: Colin Mearns/NQ) Mr Trump was the first to tee off. He said he would have a quick game before returning to Washington to "put out fires all over the world". "We started with a beautiful piece of land, but we made it much more beautiful. "The area has really welcomed us. If you remember at the beginning there wasn't quite a welcome, but it wasn't bad. "But with time they liked us more and more, now they love us and we love them." Mr Trump added: "I look forward to playing it today. "We'll play it very quickly and then I go back to DC and we put out fires all over the world. "We did one yesterday – you know we stopped the war. We've stopped about five wars. "That's much more important than playing golf. As much as I like it, it's much more important." READ MORE Donald Trump responds to John Swinney's new plan for independence vote Train operator to extend London to Edinburgh services to Glasgow Cost of investigation into SNP finances soars to £2.7 million The President has played a number of rounds of golf during his Scottish trip, spending time at his other resort in Turnberry. He held a bilateral with Sir Keir at the South Ayrshire course on Monday, where he also held a lengthy press conference. There, the President spoke of his "great love" for Scotland and said he wanted to see the nation "thrive". He was asked about Mr Swinney's plan for a second vote on the constitution. The First Minister said on Monday that the precedent set by the [[SNP]]'s 2011 election victory, when they won an unprecedented majority in Holyrood, would break the "logjam". He said there should be a "legal referendum recognised by all" on Scottish independence if the [[SNP]] manages the same feat at next year's [[Holyrood]] election. "We demonstrated how we break the logjam in the past, by electing a majority of SNP MSPs in 2011, and that led to an independence referendum in 2014," he told reporters. He invited supporters of independence to back his party in the constituency vote and to "demand independence" in the regional vote. Asked about the First Minister's proposal, the President said he did not want to "get involved" in Britain's domestic politics. "We got enough politics of our own," he added. He also claimed he had correctly predicted the result of the 2014 referendum, and suggested there should be a sizeable gap between votes. He told journalists: "I do say that when they made that deal, somebody said that it was – and I remember this very distinctly, I said, 'Could they do this all the time?' – there was a little bit of a restriction, like 50 or 75 years before you could take another vote. Because, you know, a country can't go through that too much."

Emma Grede always wears things twice
At Emma Grede's first job as a fashion show producer, she was told to wear black so she wouldn't stand out. But even back then, she refused to fade into the background. 'I bought whatever I could afford from Balenciaga or Celine,' she says. 'I have always used my clothes as a tool (of self-expression).' Grede is one of the best-known entrepreneurs of our time. She's the business mastermind behind Skims, Good American and the newly launched sports fashion startup Off Season. But even in the glitzy world of fashion, she's become notable for her style. Grede believes that our clothes should be a way to channel our creativity and personality, particularly in the world of business. On a recent trip to London, her hometown, her team captured her outfits of the day, which included a white Jacquemus jacket and matching cargo pants set paired with pointed Balenciaga heels, and a blue striped Proenza Schouler top and skirt paired with strappy YSL heels. 'I dress entirely to please myself,' she says. 'Depending on the day, that could be for comfort, or convenience, or because I want to feel bad ass.' While Grede has always been stylish, she's spent much of her career behind the scenes. In 2008, she launched the talent management firm ITB Worldwide which was acquired a decade later. She then partnered with members of the Kardashian family to co-found Good American, Skims and Safely, letting her more famous co-founders be the face of the brand. But these days, she's becoming a personality in her own right, as a judge on Shark Tank and Dragon's Den. She's recently launched a podcast called Aspire with Emma Grede where she's interviewed everyone from Michelle Obama to Gwyneth Paltrow. As a mother of four with a demanding schedule, Grede doesn't have a lot of time to strategize about her outfits. And even though her looks vary, she developed a kind of formula to what she wears. She wears a lot of denim, including Vintage Levi's and Frame. She has a collection of white and striped Oxford shirts from Celine, YSY, and Comme Des Garcons, and she also loves a good heel. 'There is literally nothing in my closet that only gets worn once,' she says. 'There's something about the simplicity of not really choosing something new every day that's really freeing.' Describe your style in a sentence. That's so hard, I dress how I feel and I feel different all the time! What's the one piece in your closet you'll never get rid of? I have so many things but probably a pair of Gucci loafers I've had since I was 15. I bought them for myself, and it was such a big deal at the time. How long does it take you to get dressed in the morning? Five minutes. I pull outfits ahead of time. What do you wear to a big meeting? Something that has bought me luck in the past I'm very superstitious. What's the best piece of fashion advice you've ever gotten? To embrace my individuality and do what makes you feel good.
