Singer and newlywed Jennifer Lopez has revealed why she made the decision to become Mrs Jennifer Affleck.
The 53-year-old singer has described taking her husband Ben’s surname as a “power move”. Speaking to Vogue magazine for the December cover issue, Lopez said the move has made her “proud” and reaffirmed her feelings that she’s in full control of her life.
Jennifer said: “People are still going to call me Jennifer Lopez. But my legal name will be Mrs Affleck because we’re joined together. We’re husband and wife. I’m proud of that,” said the 50-year-old newlywed who married Affleck in Las Vegas in July before throwing another wedding extravaganza that lasted three days at Affleck’s $8.9 million estate in Georgia.
“I don’t think that’s a problem... it’s not traditional. It doesn’t have any romance to it. It feels like it’s a power move, you know what I mean?
