Jennifer Lopez has made some vulnerable confessions, exposing what her world is really like behind all that glam.
In an extremely casual chat with Interview Magazine, she told comedian Nikki Glaser about what tremendous effort it takes to pick herself back up during bad days.
The vocalist stated, “My whole life has been proving my enoughness. Dealing with feeling like you’re enough, from when you’re very young, is something that you don’t figure out for a long time.”
She went on to recall how her family’s treatment eventually lead her to be a people-pleaser.
Jennifer Lopez said, “It was just being ignored, being a middle child, having a very outgoing mom and a dad who worked all day and worked all night and feeling like you weren’t important.”
“I do see the effect of who and how they were. You don’t even really know until those things start manifesting in your actual adult relationships,” she added.
The singer explained that you start pushing your comfort boundaries for other people by saying, “Oh, I’m comfortable with this person ignoring me. I’m comfortable with this person treating me this way.”
After realizing these things after “so many years,” Jennifer Lopez tried to pull out of being a doormat for other people to make self-love a priority.
“Now I think, with everything that’s happened in my life and in my relationships and even in my career, it’s like, give yourself a bit of comfort and love,” she concluded.
