AceShowbiz - Jennifer Lopez had an unexpected moment of self-awareness during a chat with her "Unstoppable" co-star Bobby Cannavale at the Toronto International Film Festival on Friday, September 6.
The pop icon and actress, who recently turned 55, was captured in a candid video by the Hollywood Reporter telling the 54-year-old actor, "I'm a bad picker." Lopez repeated the phrase a few times, laughing as she made the frank admission. She also did a little dance while chatting with Cannavale.
For J-Lo, having a "bad picker" means choosing the wrong people to be in relationships with. Her track record seems to support her claim. Lopez has been through four high-profile marriages: first to Ojani Noa from 1997 to 1998, then to Cris Judd from 2001 to 2003, followed by Marc Anthony from 2004 to 2014 (with whom she shares two children), and most recently to Ben Affleck, to whom she was married for two years before filing for divorce on August 20, the exact date of their second wedding anniversary.
The breakup with Affleck came after months of speculation that all was not well between the couple, with rumors and signs such as the pair house-hunting independently.
In May, Lopez hinted at the impending split by "liking" a post about unhealthy relationships, which stated that one "cannot build a healthy relationship with somebody" who "lacks integrity and emotional safety." According to a source cited by People, Lopez had grown tired of Affleck's alleged mood swings and "erratic behavior."
Since splitting from Affleck, Lopez has attempted to stay positive, sharing via Instagram that she is "at peace" and posting happy moments from her summer. The Toronto International Film Festival marked one of her first public appearances since the split.
Her cheerful demeanor at the event didn't go unnoticed during her cozy chat with Cannavale. Despite this, it's essential to note that Cannavale has been in a long-term relationship with Rose Byrne since 2012, with whom he shares two kids.
Lopez's appearance at the "Unstoppable" premiere saw her in a stunning, revealing gown adorned with silver embroidery and black velvet bows, perhaps signaling to Affleck what he's missing. J-Lo capped off her evening by sharing photos of herself in the glamorous outfit on Instagram, cheekily captioning them with the name of her new movie, "Unstoppable."
