Jennifer Lopez has gotten to work on a big project. The 55-year-old singer is giving a 'sexy glow up' to her new $21M nest that she snapped up in February after finalizing her divorce from husband of two years Ben Affleck. The over 10K-square-foot mansion is located in the gated Hidden Hills, California community where friends Kim and Khloe Kardashian as well as Kylie and Kris Jenner reside. 'Jennifer is renovating the home to her satisfaction,' an insider told 'She is spending a lot of money because it's big: there is the main house, the pool house and a guest house.' But this is business as usual for the Unstoppable actress. 'Jennifer renovates every home she moves into because she wants a certain look, the JLo touch, which makes the place her very own,' added the friend.

Jennifer Lopez has gotten to work on a big project. The 55-year-old singer is giving a 'sexy glow up' to her new $21M nest that she snapped up in February after finalizing her divorce from husband of two years Ben Affleck; seen on Monday in Las Vegas 'She has great style so she makes everything better. And she had very specific ideas for this place. Jennifer wants it light, bright and flirty,' said the source. It will be a great pad to enjoy the summer months, though she will be out of town often. Lopez's Up All Night: Live in 2025 summer tour will feature shows across Europe and beyond, beginning on July 4 in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt, and concluding on August 7 in Istanbul, Turkey. She will also be performing in Las Vegas, where she used to have a residency. Her 56th birthday falls on July 24. The home celebrates her new life as a single woman after a painful split from Ben. The property is an hour drive from Affleck 's home in the Brentwood area, near his ex-wife Jennifer Garner. earlier reported the single mother to twins Max and Emme moved for peace of mind. 'Jennifer wanted to get out of the hustle and bustle of the city and have a more relaxed home life in Hidden Hills,' said the source. 'It has nothing to do with getting away from Ben and his family and Jennifer and their kids. She is OK with them. It is about being in a more relaxed environment.' It also helps that the security is tops. 'She bought a home in a gated community where there is security personnel and cameras everywhere, it's extremely safe. This way she doesn't have to worry if Max rides his bicycle down a street or if Emme goes for a walk with a friend.' 'Jennifer wanted to get out of the hustle and bustle of the city and have a more relaxed home life in Hidden Hills,' said the source. 'It has nothing to do with getting away from Ben and his family. It is about being in a more relaxed environment.'(seen in January 2024) Jennifer has lived in the area before. In 2001 she had a house in Calabasas when she was wed to Cris Judd. This new house is quite the beauty. The sprawling 2.5-acre estate features a 10,046-square-foot main house, along with a barn, stables, a riding arena, a guest house, and a pool. For added luxury, the home boasts a private theater, a chef's kitchen, and a fully equipped gym. The property also has a touch of Hollywood history, having once been owned by John Fogerty of Creedence Clearwater Revival, who purchased it from Sylvester Stallone before selling it to Lopez. Meanwhile, Lopez and Affleck are still struggling to sell their $61 million Beverly Hills mansion, which they purchased in May 2023. Initially attempting an off-market sale, they later publicly listed the 38,000-square-foot mansion for $68 million in July. Known as Crestview Manor, the lavish estate includes a 12-bedroom, 24-bathroom main house, a 5,000-square-foot guest penthouse, a two-bedroom guardhouse, a caretaker's house, and a 12-car garage. The property also boasts a home bar, gym, sports lounge, boxing ring, basketball and pickleball courts, and parking for up to 80 vehicles. The former couple accepted a $64 million offer from a New Jersey buyer, but the deal fell through in September, leaving the mansion back on the market as of December 5. TMZ reported that while the buyers remain 'interested,' the home remains unsold. A source told PEOPLE that Lopez and Affleck weren't fully aligned when they bought the house. 'The $68 million mansion was Ben's idea and a major compromise for her,' the insider revealed, noting that its expansive layout was ideal for their blended family. However, Lopez reportedly preferred a more romantic, European- inspired aesthetic, while Affleck soon found the home's location inconvenient for his Brentwood-based life and children. After months of speculation about their crumbling marriage, Lopez filed for divorce in August, citing April 26, 2024, as their date of separation. Affleck moved into a $20 million Brentwood home in September, placing him closer to his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, and their three children. Lopez and Affleck's rekindled romance, which began in 2021 after 17 years apart, saw them wed in a whirlwind Las Vegas ceremony in July 2022, followed by a star-studded celebration at Affleck's Georgia estate. Last month Affleck shed some light on the breakdown of his marriage to Lopez and his relationship with first wife Garner in a candid chat with British GQ. Affleck has insisted there was 'no scandal, no soap opera, no intrigue' that caused their breakup. Admitting why he doesn't like to dwell too much on the split in interviews, he said that it wasn't a blame game but 'the reason I don't want to share that is just sort of embarrassing. It feels vulnerable.' Affleck also addressed his participation in the documentary, The Greatest Love Story Never Told - part three of his wife's $20 million media homage to their romance. Fans were quick to point out how disinterested he looked in the doc - where he openly said he felt 'uncomfortable' on camera and revealed he 'found their privacy sacred'. Doubling down on his remarks, Affleck explained: 'Part of it was, 'OK, if I'm going to participate in this, I want to try to do it in an honest way and in a way that's interesting.' Because I thought it was an interesting examination.' Addressing the difference in their approach to fame, he continued: 'My temperament is to be a little bit more reserved and private than hers. 'As happens in relationships, you don't always have the same attitude towards these things. 'And so I thought, "Oh, this is interesting because how do you reconcile that?" Because exactly what you said is true. I love and support this person. I believe in them. They're great. I want people to see that... You've got to own what you knew going into any relationship.' Clarifying that he 'has a lot of respect' for Lopez, the Oscar-winning actor added that fans would do well not to read too much into their documentary. He mused: 'I think it's important to say that wasn't the cause of some major fracture. It's not like you can watch that documentary and go, 'Oh, now I understand the issues that these two had.''

See the humdrum things Ben Affleck bought at a grocery store when ex JLo was kissing a hunky man at AMAs
Ben Affleck was at the grocery store with his German Shepherd dog on Monday when his ex-wife Jennifer Lopez kissed several dancers at the AMAs. JLo locked lips with a hunky man and sexy lady in front of the gasping Las Vegas crowd as she hosted the event. But Ben was doing a humdrum chore in Los Angeles. The Oscar-winning actor was in a plaid shirt and jeans with sneakers as he hit a supermarket with his loyal canine. And what the Batman actor snapped up was surprising as there seemed to be little food in his cart. What he purchased were several packs of low-calories canned sodas like Diet Dr Pepper and Waterloo. He also had packs of A&W Root Beer and Mountain Dew. There also appeared to be bags on potato chips. The Oscar-winning actor was in a plaid shirt as he hit a Los Angeles supermarket with his loyal canine. And what the Batman actor snapped up was surprising as there seemed to be little food in his cart Meanwhile, Lopez made a super splash in Sin City as she talked up her summer concert series. The Grammy winner had a total of eight outfits for the night. She said she waits until the last minute to decide on outfits for events so she can make sure to 'excite' her fans. The American Music Awards 2025 host waited days before her presenting duty on Monday to pick her plunging fish scales dress. But Jennifer always confirms an ensemble to her stylist right before an event because she likes switching things up based on how she is feeling. The 55-year-old singer told People: 'We started doing our fittings just yesterday, and there's so many things to choose from. 'I don't know what's going to wind up on the show... it'll be a lot of last-minute decisions, I think. Meanwhile, JLo locked lips with a hunky man and sexy lady in front of the gasping Las Vegas crowd as she hosted the event 'I work with my stylist and we kind of kick around ideas like, "What do we want it to be for the performance and what do we want it to be for the hosting and what's our vibe?"' Lopez wore an incredible eight different looks for her big night held at the Fontainebleau Las Vegas. Lopez likes to change her mind. 'We feel it out because I think it does change,' noted the ex of Alex Rodriguez. Sometimes she may want to go elegant, other times the diva wants to sex it up by flashing the flesh. 'For me, my feelings change from month to month, like, "Who do I want to be today?" because I feel like there's so many different sides to who I am fashion-wise.' But with whatever outfit the Let's Get Loud hitmaker decides on, it has to make her fans happy. JLO said: 'I always want to keep the audience engaged and excited. 'I have one or two girls that I worked with and have worked with for years, Kelly and now Hannah. 'And we really just have honed it down to, "We'll do this. We'll do this. We'll do this. 'You take the top. I'll take the shoe." 'We just have learned to do it so fast, so I'm sure we hold a world record or something somewhere.' Also on Monday Lopez announced that she will have several tour stops in Las Vegas, a city where she used to have a residency. 2025 American Music Awards WINNERS ARTIST OF THE YEAR Ariana Grande Billie Eilish — WINNER Chappell Roan Kendrick Lamar Morgan Wallen Post Malone Sabrina Carpenter SZA Taylor Swift Zach Bryan ALBUM OF THE YEAR Beyonce - Cowboy Carter Gracie Abrams - The Secret Of Us Billie Eilish - Hit Me Hard And Soft — WINNER Kendrick Lamar - GNX Chappell Roan - The Rise And Fall Of A Midwest Princess Charlie XCX - BRAT Post Malone - F-1 Trillion Future & Metro Boomin - We Don't Trust You Sabrina Carpenter - Short n' Sweet Taylor Swift - The Tortured Poets Department COLLABORATION OF THE YEAR Kendrick Lamar & SZA - Luther Rose & Bruno Mars - APT Lady Gaga & Bruno Mars - Die With A Smile — WINNER Marshmello & Kane Brown - Miles On it Post Malone ft.

Jennifer Lopez, 55, Sparks Mixed Reactions After Bold Opening Performance at AMAs
Jennifer Lopez opened the 2025 American Music Awards in an energetic fashion, "turning it up" to the biggest hits of the year. This year's host danced "her heart out" with an opening sequence mash-up of 23 songs, but despite being completely breathless by the end of the bold 6-minute performance, not everyone loved what the 55-year-old performer was putting down. "JENNIFER LOPEZ PLEASE STOP DANCING," one viewer wrote on X (formerly Twitter), as another figured it was JLo's Dancing With the Stars reveal, noting, "is this Jennifer Lopez hinting she's gonna be on dwts with this intro #amas." "why is jennifer lopez kissing everybody at the #AMAs" someone questioned, referring to a moment where the "Let's Get Loud" crooner locked lips with male and female dancers, which got plenty of shocked reactions on social media. Tiffany Haddish even made a comment about JLo's single status following the moment, emphasizing the singer's divorce from Ben Affleck. The responses continued, with someone writing, "I'm not hating it but Jennifer Lopez dancing to all the hits doesn't make sense to me," with a second adding, "never in my life did i think i would see jenniferlopez dance to chappell roan." The reactions were divided, as a fair share praised the effort put into the performance, stating, "You can NEVER say Jennifer Lopez isn't one of the best and hardest working performers in the biz." Another tweeted, "Yall could never make me hate Jennifer Lynn Lopez!!!!! #AMAs .:: Mama still be moving and grooving better than girls half her age." In addition to Lopez flaunting her hosting, singing and dancing chops, the 51st American Music Awards, live from Fontainebleau Las Vegas, will honor Janet Jackson, who will receive the prestigious Icon Award and deliver her first live TV performance in seven years and Rod Stewart, who will be honored with the Lifetime Achievement Award and perform on the AMAs stage for the first time in over two decades. Jennifer Lopez, 55, Sparks Mixed Reactions After Bold Opening Performance at AMAs first appeared on Parade on May 27, 2025
