Jennifer Lopez admits not everyone in her camp initially supported the idea to document her romance with husband Ben Affleck in her upcoming “This Is Me… Now” album and companion film.
“As artists, we have to follow our heart and this is me following my heart and doing something that maybe everybody didn’t think was the best idea, but I had to do it,” Lopez tells me.
Lopez is set to drop “This Is Me… Now,” a new album that marks the 20th anniversary of “This Is Me…Then,” on Feb. 16. The Dave Meyers-directed companion short film will be released at the same time by Amazon MGM Studios.
Sure, Lopez has some worries about putting her and Affleck’s life in the spotlight because “we both have PTSD” caused by the media scrutiny they endured back when they first dated, she said, “but we’re older now. We’re wiser. We also know what’s important, what’s really important in life, and it’s not so much what other people think. It’s about being true to who you are.”

Asked if the film is a scripted feature or doc, Lopez explained, “You have to see it and you’ll have to experience it to understand it. That’s why I call it a ‘musical experience.’ Because there’s music, you can see it, you can hear it and then you’ll get to live it.”
A recent teaser for the film included a clip of Lopez saying, “When I was a little girl, when someone asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, my answer was always… in love.”
It was almost a year ago when Lopez told me, at the premiere of her rom-com “Shotgun Wedding,” that she would love to act with Affleck again. They infamously co-starred in 2003’s “Gigli,” which bombed both with critics and at the box office. “We talk,” Lopez said at the time. “We love being together and working together so, yeah, you never know.”
Lopez and Affleck initially dated in the early 2000s. Bennifer, as they were often called, came to an end not long after they called off their wedding in 2003. The relationship was rekindled in 2021 before marrying in Las Vegas in 2022.
Lopez and Affleck’s most recent red carpet appearance took place on Dec. 5 in Hollywood when she was honored at Elle’s Women in Hollywood celebration.
What number should replace the question mark
Cognitive puzzles have always intrigued and challenged our minds, pushing us to think outside the box. Today, we have an interesting brain teaser featuring fried eggs with an unknown number in one corner. The big question is: What number should replace the question mark?
At first glance, this puzzle might seem straightforward, but many people struggle to find the correct answer. Let’s break it down step by step, analyze common mistakes, and finally arrive at the right solution.
Try to Solve It First!

Before we dive into the solution, take a moment to analyze the image. Each fried egg pair or grouping has a number next to it, except for the last one. Your challenge is to figure out the pattern behind these numbers and determine the missing value.
So, what’s your answer? 12? 24? Something else? Let’s see if you’re right.
Common Mistakes People Make
Puzzles like this often trick people into seeing patterns that don’t actually exist or missing key details. Here are some common mistakes:
- Assuming the numbers represent the total number of yolks
Many people assume the number is simply the count of yolks in each grouping. However, if that were the case, the values would be 2, 3, 2, and 3—this doesn’t match the numbers given. - Thinking the numbers count the number of egg whites
Some might assume the numbers are based on the number of egg whites. However, we see cases where eggs are overlapping, making this unreliable. - Overcomplicating the pattern
Some puzzle solvers jump straight to complex mathematical operations before checking simpler patterns.
If you made one of these mistakes—don’t worry! Now let’s walk through the correct method to solve this.

Step-by-Step Solution: Finding the Pattern
Let’s examine the numbers given: 12, 23, and 22. Each number corresponds to a different grouping of eggs. But what do they mean?
Step 1: Count the Yolk Pairs and Their Positioning
Looking closely at each plate, we see that:
- 12 → Two yolks in one egg white.
- 23 → Three yolks in one egg white + two yolks in another egg white.
- 22 → Two yolks in each of two egg whites.
From this, we see that the numbers are NOT just counting yolks or egg whites alone.
Step 2: Understanding the Number Formation
Observing the pattern, the first digit of the number corresponds to the number of yolks in the first egg, and the second digit corresponds to the number of yolks in the second egg.
- 12 → (1 yolk in the first egg, 2 yolks in the second egg)
- 23 → (2 yolks in the first egg, 3 yolks in the second egg)
- 22 → (2 yolks in the first egg, 2 yolks in the second egg)
Step 3: Identifying the Last Number
Now, let’s apply this pattern to the final grouping, which contains 3 yolks in one egg white and no additional egg.
Following the same rule, the first digit is 3 (yolks in the first egg), and since there is no second egg, we assume the second digit is 1.
Thus, the missing number should be 13.
Final Answer: 13
After carefully analyzing the pattern, we conclude that the correct number to replace the question mark is 13. The first digit represents the number of yolks in the first egg, and the second digit represents the number of yolks in the second egg.
Did you get it right? If not, don’t worry! The key takeaway is to pay attention to patterns rather than just counting random elements.
