Jennifer Lopez Says You “Should Have a Party” to Celebrate a Breakup
Jennifer Lopez isn’t afraid to get loud about her breakups.
The Hustlers star—who has shared notable romances over the years, including her marriage to Ben Affleck from 2022 to 2024 after previously ending their first engagement 20 years earlier—explained her ethos when it comes to bouncing back following the end of a relationship.
“Breakups are not a failure. I honestly feel like it’s a launchpad into your next best self. We should have a party when we break up!” Lopez told Kareem Rahma on a June 30 episode of Subway Takes. “People should say, ‘You broke up? Congratulations,’ because one, you made a decision. Two, it was probably the best thing for everybody.”
The “All I Had” singer doubled down on her optimistic viewpoint, adding, “If you’re the one who’s being heartbroken, you’re the winner. Because if you go around your life and you’re breaking hearts, let’s say, you’re a loser,” though Lopez did concede, “I’ve been on both sides. We all do that. But if you’re that person, you’re never learning anything.”
