EXCLUSIVE: Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck Divorce Rumors: A Distraction from Career Struggles?

 

Los Angeles, June 4, 2024 — The entertainment world is buzzing with rumors of a potential split between superstar couple Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck. However, some PR experts suggest that these divorce speculations might serve as a smokescreen to divert attention from J-Lo’s recent career setbacks.

Career Downfall: J-Lo recently made headlines when she canceled her “This Is Me… Live” tour due to disappointing ticket sales. The abrupt decision left fans heartbroken and raised questions about the future of her multimillion-dollar Las Vegas residency. Critics have also panned her latest Netflix film, labeling it a “rotten flop.” Amidst these challenges, her marriage to Ben Affleck is reportedly on shaky ground.

Divorce Rumors and Distractions: PR expert Mayah Riaz believes that the divorce rumors surrounding J-Lo and Ben might be strategically manufactured. “In March,” Riaz explains, “JLo canceled the last seven tour dates. Then in April, the tour name was changed from ‘This Is Me…Now’ to ‘This Is Me … Live: The Greatest Hits.’” Riaz suggests that such personal life distractions can be used to shift focus away from professional setbacks.

Skepticism and Scrutiny: While some speculate about marital troubles, PR expert Ryan McCormick points out that J-Lo’s image could suffer if she performs in half-filled arenas. “Cancelling the tour,” McCormick says, “may have been a choice between the lesser of two PR disasters.” He advises approaching the divorce rumors with skepticism until credible confirmation emerges.
