Jennifer Lopezis proving she’s a pro at avoiding questions about her love life.
The actress and singer, 51,appeared virtuallyon theToday ShowalongsideLin-Manuel Mirandato discuss the re-release of their charity single “Love Make the World” to benefit theonePulse Foundation. The track was first released in 2016 in honor of the victims of the mass shooting at Pulse nightclub in Orlando.
“It’s the five-year anniversary of the Pulse tragedy, so we figured on the anniversary to rerelease the single, which we really released out of a desire to do something in the face of this tragedy,” Miranda, 41, said, recalling performing the song with Lopez at the time.
While promoting the single’s re-release,Todayco-hostHoda Kotbtold Lopez that she noticed she looks a lot happier in recent photos of her rekindled relationship withBen Affleck. She then asked the singer to confirm or not, saying, “Are you happier?” before Lopez dodged the question like an expert.
“The song is out, five years since we’ve done it. And I believe that that message of loving one another and coming together and love, is never more relevant than it is right now,” Lopez said with a smile.
“Wait, it’s me you’re talking to, you know that,” Kotb replied.
“I know,” Lopez said. “You can call me. You have my number!”

And the relationship might be the reason fans are revisiting Lopez’s 2002 albumThis Is Me…Then. Earlier this month, while speaking with Apple Music 1’s Ebro Darden following the release of her collaboration withRauw Alejandro"Cambia El Paso," the singer was asked about the recent resurgence of the album after all these years.
“The name of that album wasThis Is Me… Then. That was a moment. When you go back and hear that, you hear the purity and the love there,” Lopez said, referring to the album released around the time she was first in a relationship with Affleck. “And I think that’s why people went back as they saw different things happening in my life now and they go, ‘Wow, really?’ And I think it gave people hope.”
“Some things do last forever,” she added.
