Lopez's new album 'This Is Me...Now' will release on Feb. 16 with an accompanying film

Jennifer Lopez is back with new music — and we can't get enough of it!

On Wednesday, the singer and actress released "Can't Get Enough" with an accompanying music video.

Lopez, 54, spoke to fans about the song and how its release came together in a YouTube live stream ahead of the video premiere. "I love a love song, but I need something — and I kept saying this to them — that I can perform," she said of "Can't Get Enough."

"So when we first heard this song, everyone just knew that this was the one to launch This Is Me…Now," added the star. "It has an energy, it has a happiness to it, and you feel it all."

When it came to creating the single's music video, Lopez said she went to her husband, Ben Affleck, for advice. "Not that he’s ever really made videos or anything like that, but I just trust his opinion and his ideas," she explained. "Nobody kind of knows my story or me more than he does. I really feel like he gets me and he understands me, obviously."

"Can't Get Enough" is the first release from her forthcoming ninth studio album This Is Me...Now, which is set for release on Feb. 16. Fans can presave the album here.

"All of you have been following my journey, and I think you’ve seen me," Lopez told fans during the YouTube live stream. "What I wanted to tell everybody with the album... is true love actually exists."

This Is Me...Now: A Love Story will release on the same day on Prime Video. The film, directed by Dave Meyers, will serve as a "musical and visual reimagining of her publicly scrutinized love life," according to the release, which promises it will be "narrative-driven, intimate, reflective, sexy, funny, fantastical and highly entertaining." The film was also co-written by Affleck, 51, as well as Matt Walton.

On Monday, the "Jenny from the Block" singer dropped a teaser of the music video on social media.

The clip, shared on Instagram, captures her wearing a skin-baring white gown as she "marries" a series of grooms in a wedding-themed story. Her daring, mermaid-style dress features a curve-hugging silhouette and two large heart-shaped cutouts revealing her abs and upper thighs.

"I just wanna, I just feel like…" Lopez sings in the clip as she dances with her parade of grooms, celebrates at a reception and is whisked away in a car in various scenes.

She captioned the post, "Can’t wait for Can’t Get Enough in 2️⃣ days!!! #THISISMENOW. The wait is almost over…"

In another sneak peek of the music video posted on Saturday, Lopez wears a shorter, strapless dress adorned with a cluster of red roses at the waist. She twirls around the dance floor with her grooms, one of whom is Dancing with the Stars pro Derek Hough.

In an interview with Variety on the red carpet, Lopez opened up about the wedding-themed video for "Can't Get Enough" and what inspired the creative concept behind it.

"I think it might surprise some people. It’s definitely kind of a meta story about the journey that it takes to get from heartbreak back to love," she explained, joking that she's an "expert" on weddings.

"I am somewhat of an expert, you could say, in a weird way. Not so much on marriage, but on weddings," she told the outlet.

The Marry Me actress’ upcoming ninth studio album and first full-length release in nearly a decade is said to act as a follow-up to 2002's This Is Me… Then, which explored her relationship with the actor/filmmaker at the time.
