Lopez confided that she couldn’t have been in a more different place mentally than she was in her twenties. Perhaps professionally as well, as Lopez was just starting to come into her own as a star back then.
In her mid-to-late 20s, Lopez starred in many blockbuster features and classics, such as Money Train, Selena, and Anaconda. However, approaching A-list status also attracted a lot of attention from the media and tabloids, which Lopez used to worry about a great deal.

Jennifer Aniston has been involved in many high-profile relationships over the years. Although she’s used to being on the dating scene, dating in itself isn’t something she enjoys.

As is the case with many celebrities, Aniston is used to hearing rumors about her dating life. Just recently, for instance, the Friends alum sparked engagement rumors when she arrived at the 2024 SAG Awards wearing a ring. According to Hola!, she wore the ring on the same hand usually reserved for accepting marriage proposals. This was in spite of the fact that Aniston was single at the time.
Rumors like those were partially why Aniston didn’t like dating at all. Because of her celebrity status, whoever she’s seen hanging out with is often speculated to be a potential suitor.
“But no, I’m not a big fan of dating.

Romance author Emily Henry now has five of her most recent novels set to be adapted for the big and small screens. Henry went on a rom-com writing spree that began with Beach Read, which came out in the summer of 2020. She has published a book a year since then, with People We Meet on Vacation coming out in 2021, Book Lovers arriving in 2022, Happy Place released in 2023 and Funny Story hitting shelves this year.
Three of Henry’s books received adaptation optioning deals for films, with two of them attaching directors. Starting in 2022, multiple studios made the decision to adapt various Emily Henry books into movies.

Tri Star Sports & Entertainment Group, the prominent celebrity management firm that was scrutinized for its involvement in Britney Spears’ conservatorship, is in the spotlight again for its work with Sean “Diddy” Combs as the hip-hop mogul, now in federal custody, fights sex-trafficking and racketeering charges.
Producer Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones’ February civil lawsuit against Combs contended that the music tycoon’s misconduct was made possible through a network of associates, including “Robin Greenhill, the accountant, [who] would ensure the wiring, funds transfer, or cash payments to sex workers.” Greenhill, a services director at Tri Star, didn’t respond to The Hollywood Reporter’s request for comment.
That civil claim presaged the Department of Justice’s allegations in its Sept. 17 indictment; Tri Star was not mentioned in that indictment.

Nikki Glaser couldn’t be more thrilled. After publicly defending Jennifer Lopez from her online haters, the comedian recently received a gift from J.Lo herself. “Maybe someone knows that I love her,” Glaser gleefully announced in a TikTok.
That wasn’t always the case. Glaser told The Zach Sang Show earlier this summer that she used to dismiss Lopez with an attitude of, “This is so phony. What is this? I’m over it.” The reason, Glaser confessed, was jealousy. But the documentary The Greatest Love Story Never Told turned her around. “I watched it to feed my feeling that I already had about her, but it dismantled it. Now I am so Team J.Lo.”
