Jennifer Lopez is looking back at major life moments that have brought her to where she is now.
In a new interview with Apple Music's Ebro Darden, per People, the "On the Floor" singer talks about the personal impact of her 2002 album, This Is Me... Then, which was released around the time of her initial relationship with Ben Affleck. Nearly 20 years later, the pair have rekindled their romance, following Lopez's split from Alex Rodriguez and Affleck's breakup with Ana de Armas earlier this year. During her chat with Darden, Lopez expressed that fans still have a major appreciation for the record, especially when they look at how her personal life was then compared to now.
"The name of that album was This Is Me... Then," Lopez said. "That was a moment. When you go back and hear that, you hear the purity and the love there. And I think that's why people went back as they saw different things happening in my life now and they go, 'Wow, really?' And I think it gave people hope."
Lopez continued, "Some things do last forever," possibly alluding to the love between her and Affleck.

The singer also stated that when it comes to the trials and tribulations of love and heartbreak, she does her best to hide her true emotions from fans and the public.
"There's been so many times in my life where I have not felt happy, just like anybody else," Lopez said. "And I think I'm good at hiding that from the public because I don't feel like that's their burden to carry. I don't put that on them. It's show business. I put my best foot forward. I'm my best self every time I am out there, because I feel like people need that too."
She added, "That's my responsibility as an artist, is to inspire and to help people think and grow about their own lives. They don't need my problems, so. But I do."
