Jennifer Lopez rumored to be working on a 'A Cry Me a River-type ballad' in Ben Affleck break-up album

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: If a love album doesn’t make waves, maybe a breakup album will, right? Well, at least that’s what seems to be on Jennifer Lopez's mind.

I mean, look at Taylor Swift. She’s practically made a career out of turning heartbreak into Grammy gold. Could Jennifer Lopez be eyeing the same route?

Well, rumor has it that JLo is getting ready to channel all her emotions into her music, but this time it won’t be about her sweet love story with Ben Affleck. Nope, she’s ready to get raw and real about their split.

The scoop on JLo’s emotional new album

According to a source who spilled the tea to The US Sun, JLo is gearing up to get real in her new album — and it’s not going to be a love fest. The insider claims this will be her “most emotional yet,” and that it’ll focus on heartbreak.

“This album is going to be all about heartbreak,” the source shared. “Fans are going to get the real story through her music.”

If you’re a fan of Justin Timberlake, you’ll remember how his post-breakup track 'Cry Me a River' practically became an anthem for the broken-hearted. Timberlake poured all his feelings from his split with Britney Spears into that ballad, and it took off like wildfire. According to this source, Lopez might be going for the same kind of attention.

"Jen really wants that Cry Me a River-type ballad," they hinted.

So, does this mean there’s more to the breakup than we know? Could we be getting some juicy details about what really went down between her and Ben?

"Cry Me a River" wasn’t just about heartbreak - it was about betrayal, specifically the rumor that Britney had cheated on Justin. So, some are wondering whether JLo’s new album also going to reveal some scandalous details about what went down between her and Ben. I mean, it would make for a killer plot twist, right?

Of course, not everyone’s buying into the idea that a breakup album is in the works. Another insider shot down the rumors. They told The US Sun that Jennifer is actually more focused on her acting, especially her new film 'Unstoppable' — which just premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF).

Oh, and here’s the kicker - 'Unstoppable' was produced by none other than Ben Affleck. Talk about awkward! The source noted that while they’ve been avoiding any joint promotions for the film, this project is still her top priority right now.

But let's be honest; it’s JLo we’re talking about here. Multitasking is practically her middle name. According to the first insider, working is what really makes her tick. "She needs to be working. She’s happiest when she’s working," they revealed.

So, yeah, even though she’s knee-deep in making movies, we wouldn’t be shocked if she’s secretly cooking up some music on the side.

A happy front or a hidden heartbreak?

As we all know, a good distraction is key when going through a tough breakup and Lopez seems to be doing just that. Whether it’s with her movie or potential new music, it’s clear that JLo is keeping herself occupied. But is she really heartbroken? That’s where things get a little confusing.

Just days ago, Lopez and Affleck were spotted having brunch with their kids and the pair looked pretty cozy despite their rumored split. The former couple even reportedly kissed in front of their kids! And to add to the confusion, JLo was seen out and about just a couple of days later looking happier than ever. Doesn’t really scream “breakup ballads,” does it?

So what’s the deal? Well, as far as we know, Lopez officially filed for divorce last month - citing April 26 as the date of separation. She reportedly made the filing on August 20, which just so happens to be the second anniversary of their big wedding ceremony in Georgia. Talk about timing!

Interestingly, there was no mention of a prenup in her filing, which means any money they made during their nearly two-year marriage will likely be considered community property.

Sure, they’re moving forward with the divorce, but honestly it’s hard to believe that these two are really done with each other. With that kind of chemistry still brewing, who’s to say what could happen? Maybe they’ll patch things up and make it work after all. There’s clearly still something between them, even if they’re technically headed for Splitsville.

And if that’s the case, is Jennifer really in the right headspace to write a breakup album? I mean, how do you pour your heart out about heartbreak when you’re filing for divorce one day and kissing the guy the next? It’s a rollercoaster, for sure.

With all of this in mind, it’s hard to imagine Lopez is in the mood to crank out a full-blown breakup album. Sure, a "Cry Me A River"-style track would be epic and who wouldn’t want to hear her side of the story? At the same time, she’s not exactly giving off heartbroken vibes. At least not right now.
