Eagle-eyed fans quickly noticed something unusual in the picture: is there a hidden message in J. Lo’s post? Fans are on high alert, and the internet is buzzing with theories.


Jennifer Lopez is turning heads as she steps back into the spotlight amid her divorce from Ben Affleck. On Friday, Aug. 23, the superstar shared a glamorous selfie on her Instagram Stories—her first post since filing for divorce earlier that week, coinciding with what would have been the couple’s second wedding anniversary.

In the captivating snapshot, Lopez, exudes confidence with voluminous honey blonde curls and flawless makeup. Draped in a pale pink, fuzzy tracksuit, she looks radiant and at ease, despite the personal upheaval. The festive scene is completed with a lit-up Christmas tree in the background.

Interestingly, fans quickly identified the image as a repost from a fan account, speculating that it was originally taken during a December 2020 hair-and-makeup session with celebrity stylist Chris Appleton. In the original post, Appleton celebrated the look with the caption, “Ending the year with a bang ✨.”

The timing and choice of the photo have sparked intrigue. The choice to resurface this particular photo now has sparked speculation. Is Lopez sending a message with this glam throwback as she steps into a new chapter of her life?

However, as the picture went viral, comments underneath the post began to resurface, and many were surprisingly harsh on the star. One user commented, “Ending the year? It’s only August! Anyway, way to raise unrealistic beauty standards with filters,” pointing out the confusion over the timing and critiquing the use of filters. Another commenter added, “What’s on the inside is what counts, J. Lo,” hinting that during such a challenging time, she should focus more on her inner self rather than her outward appearance.

Many commenters went beyond the surface beauty of the photos and touched on the recent divorce announcement. One user remarked, “Two sides to every coin/story. It almost always lies somewhere in between. I love me some J. Lo, always have. There is a reason both of them can’t hold down a good relationship,” suggesting deeper issues behind the split. Another comment bluntly stated, “She loves the publicity more than Ben,” hinting at Lopez’s supposed preference for the spotlight over her relationship.

These reactions underscore the mixed feelings some fans have about the star’s personal life, especially in light of her high-profile divorce.

Here’s the heartbreaking reason why Jennifer and Ben Affleck divorced.

Lisa Marie Presley kept her son Benjamin’s body at home for two months after he passed away.

Lisa Marie Presley was so devastated by the loss of her son, Benjamin Keough, that she kept his body in her home for two months after he passed away. She even invited a tattoo artist to see him so she could get matching tattoos.

This is just one of many surprising details in Lisa Marie’s new memoir, From Here to the Great Unknown, which was completed by her daughter, actress Riley Keough, after Lisa Marie passed away in January 2023.

In her book, Lisa Marie shared that she had to fight to stay alive for her other children, Riley and her twin daughters Harper and Finley, who are now 16. She didn’t say goodbye to Benjamin right away because she was torn between burying him in Hawaii or at Graceland, the Memphis estate where Elvis, her father, is buried.

Lisa Marie kept the room at 55 degrees to preserve Benjamin’s body and got so used to caring for him and having him there.

Riley and Lisa Marie decided to honor Benjamin by getting tattoos like his. Benjamin had his sister’s name on his collarbone and his mom’s name on his hand. Riley had her brother’s name tattooed on her collarbone, and a tattoo artist was called to Lisa Marie’s home to add Benjamin’s name to her hand. When the artist asked if they had photos of Benjamin’s tattoos to match the font and placement, Lisa Marie said, “No, but I can show you.”

Riley writes: “Lisa Marie Presley had just asked this poor man to look at her dead son, who was right next to us in the guest house. I’ve had a very strange life, but this moment is one of the weirdest.”

Lisa Marie also knew it was strange. She said, “I think it would scare the heck out of anyone else to have their son there like that. But not me.”

Soon after the tattoo day, Riley remembers that everyone felt like Benjamin wanted to be laid to rest.

Even Lisa Marie said she could feel him communicating with her, saying, “This is crazy, Mom, what are you doing? What the heck!”

The family held a funeral for Benjamin in Malibu, and New Age author Deepak Chopra led the ceremony. Riley said she had to keep her eyes closed the whole time because she was struggling to cope with everything.

Benjamin was buried at Graceland, next to Elvis, and Lisa Marie would later be buried there too.

Riley writes a lot about her brother’s struggles with mental health and how he often went on drinking binges. She doesn’t believe he truly wanted to die.

After his death, she and her mom went through his phone, looking for answers.

Riley writes, “We found a text he sent to my mom a couple of weeks before he died that said, ‘I think something’s wrong with me mentally. I think I have a mental health issue.’ It’s heartbreaking to me that he only realized he might need help just two weeks before he took his own life.”
