And there\u2019s some (non-JLo related) gossip here because KATSEYE members were in attendance on Friday night and so was Manon\u2026but Manon went with The Kid Laroi and his girlfriend and there was supposedly no contact between her and the others. She\u2019s been on \u201chiatus\u201d from the group since February but also since February there hasn\u2019t been much clarification about whether or not she\u2019s coming back, while group activities have continued without her. The speculation, at least in certain corners, has been incessant. I mean, to me, it\u2019s pretty obvious that she\u2019s done, she\u2019s out, and it\u2019ll be interesting to see going forward, one day, if she\u2019ll ever be able to talk about what went down.<\/p>\n<p>Now back to JLo, much less dramatic and way cuter \u2013 she took her child, Emme, and Ben Affleck\u2019s child, Fin to the show. A mom and stepmom with the best hookups. As we have seen, quite regularly since she and Ben divorced, she has maintained a relationship with all of his kids. Emme and Fin are obviously still close, it\u2019s not unusual for her to take Sam shopping, and there have also been a few hangs with Violet who just completed her second year at Yale and, in general, since she\u2019s in university and not in Los Angeles as much through the academic year, isn\u2019t photographed as much. It is sweet that they remain in each other\u2019s lives.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>JLo is coming off of Office Romance with Brett Goldstein, topping the Netflix movie charts in its first week and it\u2019s currently Netflix\u2019s biggest romance movie debut of 2026 (debut numbers were stronger than People We Meet on Vacation) although I wonder if that might change after this weekend because Voicemails for Isabelle is getting great reviews and could be a word-of-mouth sleeper.<\/p>\n<p>For JLo, though, it\u2019s a professional win. And they\u2019re still doing some light promo for it. Last week Netflix released a video featuring her and Brett coaching people through speed dating. It\u2019s cute and funny and once again showcases their chemistry and there\u2019s also a dig at Ben Affleck when she says at one point that men from Boston can\u2019t be trusted, LOL.<\/p>\n<p>Her next project is a domestic thriller, The Last Mrs. Parrish, based on Liv Constantine\u2019s book by the same name, directed by Robert Zemeckis. The story is about a woman who tries to scam a wealthy married couple only to realise that the wife is not the easy mark she thought she would be. The film wrapped last November so by now they should be done in post, it\u2019s just a matter of when Netflix wants to release it. Still, it\u2019s another reminder that JLo always has something cooking.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Jennifer Lopez attends Ariana Grande&#8217;s final show in LA with Benny Medina, her child Emme, and Fin Affleck, June 20, 2026<\/p>\n<p>      Photo credits: @NIKOTYLER\/Backgrid<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jennifer Lopez was one of so many celebrities who went to see Ariana Grande on tour in LA&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":753904,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[49,48,75],"class_list":["post-753903","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-entertainment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/753903","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=753903"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/753903\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/753904"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=753903"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=753903"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=753903"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
