On Friday, November 25, singer and actress Jennifer Lopez shocked her fans and followers by deleting all her Instagram posts. Initially, fans had no idea what was going on until she posted a video of her recreating the album art from her previous album, "This Is Me ... Then."

It all turned out to be a media stunt to announce the release of her latest musical project, "This Is Me ... Now." Fans were overjoyed about the new album, and long-time followers noticed a callback to "Dear Ben" on the previous album. "Dear Ben Pt. II" was featured on the list of new songs.

The album comes after Lopez and Ben Affleck decided to give their relationship another try. The two were previously married but decided to go their separate ways after a while together. Like the previous album, this new record seems inspired by Affleck. A press release stated:

"[The record] chronicles the emotional, spiritual and psychological journey that she has taken over the past two decades. [It includes] confessional songs, reflections on the trials of her past [and] upbeat celebrations of love while sharing some of her most vulnerable truths."

"People in my life know that he was a very, very special person in my life. When we reconnected, those feelings for me were still very real… All we've ever wanted was to kind of come to a place of peace in our lives where we really felt that type of love that you feel when you're very young and wonder if you can have that again."
