Ben Affleck said he was “in awe” of Jennifer Lopez in their first joint interview since their comeback.

“It’s not just any person or anything,” she said, commenting on the work within a cultural “tipping point” for women. “There are many, many, understanding and fearless women, including myself, who say, ‘I deserve a seat at the table. I have something to offer. I am worthy, I have value, I am artistic, I am intelligent, I have good business acumen, I am creative, I am forward-thinking, I am visionary, I want to learn, I want to continue to to learn, I want to continue to evolve, I want to continue to grow. ‘”

“It’s not something I did overnight. It’s something that my whole life has informed, I think, as an artist and as a woman. As the founder of the brand, I really wanted to create products that work as hard as I do, ”she said.

“I am the rare asset – someone who is a proven creator, artist and entrepreneur who has the ability to really connect with people,” she said. “This is my blessing, and what I feel is an incredible, incredible gift that I have received from God. And I don’t take it for granted. I treasure it and try to use it in the best possible way.
