During her 'Up All Night' residency in Las Vegas, Jennifer Lopez opened up to the audience about one of the most difficult moments of her life: her divorce from Marc Anthony, to whom she was married for 10 years. The artist spoke about what it was like to become a single mother of twins and how dance became her refuge. “I was a single mother with two three-year-old twins,” she recalled, referring to Max and Emme, who are now 18 years old.

The evening began with humor, as it usually does, and she joked: "After my third divorce, that's when I really started to get good at this." However, she soon became emotional: "In all seriousness, that was actually a really hard time," she confessed, describing the challenges of balancing motherhood with a demanding professional career.

Lopez shared a piece of advice that deeply marked her, from her mentor and self-help author Louise Hay: "When you're learning a dance and you get the steps wrong, what do you do? I keep going until I get the steps right. That's it, Jennifer. Keep dancing always." The singer added: "Whatever happens, dance, dance, dance over and over again. I love you so much!".

She also offered reflections on relationships and empowerment: "Women don't need much... just a little sugar, sweetness and kindness, and we'll give you a lot in return," she said with a laugh. "It's not about the money. I don't want your stuff. I bring my own microphone," she continued.

Despite her turbulent love life, four marriages and several media relationships, including her recent story with Ben Affleck, Lopez maintains a positive outlook: "Not for a second do I regret my love decisions... That doesn't mean it didn't cost me, it almost did, but now I think: 'That's just what I needed'"

With her testimony, the singer left a message of resilience, independence and passion for life, reminding us that overcoming difficult times requires courage and perseverance.
