From The Wedding Planner to Maid In Manhattan, Jennifer Lopez is no stranger to a tear-jerking romcom. And this month, she’s teamed up with fellow romantic movie regular Owen Wilson for what is sure to become an instant classic.
Drawing on experience from her own life of mega-stardom, in Marry Me Jennifer plays a globally famous singer, Kat Valdez. The girl’s got it all and is about to get married in front of an audience of loyal fans, but seconds before the ceremony, she learns of her fiancé’s cheating ways and has a meltdown on stage. Binning off the unfaithful scoundrel, Kat instead decides to take a leap of faith and marry a stranger in the crowd.
J.Lo is more than used to having her love life splashed across the pages of newspapers around the globe and last week opened up about her relationship with past and current boyfriend Ben Affleck (right).
Speaking to People magazine, the 52-year-old said, “I feel so lucky and happy and proud to be with him.” Reflecting on their rekindled romance she added, “It’s a beautiful love story that we got a second chance. I’ve never been better.”
Here, loved-up Jennifer discusses the parallels between reality and fiction when it comes to her character in the new film…
