00:00Still ahead, Jennifer Lopez on fame and handling her haters.
00:05Being in the public eye, which can be brutal, you have to really shut all of that stuff out.
00:10Plus, how she's prepping to be an empty nester.
00:13Before my premiere, we're visiting a college.
00:15Then...
00:17Bad buddy, perhaps you've heard...
00:19Yes!
00:20Perhaps you've heard...
00:21His music transcends language.
00:23I think he's, you know, about to, like, blow everybody's mind.
00:27Supersized endorsement from Jennifer Lopez.
00:30Now remember, Bad Bunny performed with her and Shakira at the 2020 halftime show.
00:34And by the way, J-Lo has her own big deal coming up.
00:37Kiss of the Spider Woman.
00:39It's a project putting her and her personal life back into the spotlight.
00:44I don't think the average person understands what it's like to be in this firestorm.
00:48How do you lock in and work while all this stuff is going on in your personal life?
00:53I have been doing this a long time.
00:55People are always gonna say things about you.
00:58They're gonna speculate.
01:00I know I'm a good person.
01:01I know I'm a great mom.
01:03I know that I work hard at what I do.
01:06Being in the public eye, which can be brutal,
01:08you have to really, like, shut all of that stuff out and just do what you do.
01:12And I love what I do, so that's the blessing.
01:16Right? Cheers.
01:17Nine months after finalizing her divorce from Ben Affleck, Jennifer is back for her first musical movie playing the legendary Ingrid Luna in Kiss of the Spider Woman in theaters Friday.
01:30I get to do this role where I sing and dance.
01:33Right.
01:34I have to do all the things that I've dreamt of.
01:35Be a big Hollywood movie star in this role for the first time.
01:38What do you mean by be a big movie star for the first time?
01:40No, no, I get to play like an old Hollywood movie musical star.
01:44You've been a big movie star for a long time.
01:46Exactly.
01:47You made some movies.
01:48I know.
01:49No, no, no.
01:50I mean, I got to play like the classic, you know, Hollywood movie siren.
01:58Her other major role is, of course, as a mom to twins Max and Emmy, who are set to make her an empty nester.
02:04We visited the colleges before my premiere.
02:06We're visiting a college in between here and New York.
02:09They are my whole world, and it will be difficult, I'm sure, but I'm happy for them to get out and do what they're meant to do.
02:16Coming up.
02:17I'm on a high right now.
02:18Now, tomorrow on ET, more JLo.
02:20I'm with her as she hits the red carpet for Kiss of the Spider Woman right here in New York.
02:25And, Michelle, I got to tell you, you know her fashion is going to be so on point tonight.
02:31Yes, indeed.
02:32Jennifer always turns it out, Kevin Frazier.
02:34Can't wait for that.
02:35And, speaking of...
