Jennifer Lopez in Tears On Stage


Jennifer Lopez became overwrought with emotion while singing about her past relationships during a performance in New Jersey over the weekend.

The 42-year-old, who recently split from her husband Marc Anthony, broke down in tears during a rendition of her hit song, Until It Beats No More.

"I'm going to sing you the last song I wrote about love," Lopez told the sell-out audience at Mohegan Sun casino in Montville on Saturday night. "A lot has changed since then."

As she sang, male dancers resembling her exes Cris Judd, Ben Affleck and Sean "Diddy" Combs, came on-stage and performed with a lookalike of Lopez.

A couple then came on and re-enacted the dance Lopez and Anthony performed on American Idol last May, just weeks before they announced their separation.

At the end of the song, Lopez told the audience, "I took a trip down memory lane" and held up a photo of her three-year-old twins Max and Emme, saying, "There's love, and then there's love."

She then began to sob on-stage, but reportedly held it together enough to perform a few last songs.

Lopez's seven-year marriage to Anthony (above, second photo) ended last July. She has since been linked to actor Bradley Cooper.

How Ben Affleck Helped Jennifer Lopez With Crumbling Marriage


Ben will always be in Jen's corner.

Although Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck famously called off their engagement and 18-month romance in January 2004, the actor was happy to help as his ex's 7-year marriage to Marc Anthony was falling apart.

Guadalupe Lopez, the singer-actress's mother (and plus-one at the July 9 BAFTA bash with the royals in Hollywood), sought Affleck's advice on July 12, multiple sources confirm in the new Us Weekly, out Wednesday. "Guadalupe reached out to Ben over email. She wanted advice for Jennifer," reveals a source.

"She always liked and trusted him. [Ben] replied back on email, wished her well and offered what he could," the source says of Affleck, 38, now happily married with two daughters to Jennifer Garner. (Lopez, now 41, wed Latin crooner Anthony, 42, just months after she and Affleck split.)

Three days after that secret email exchange with Affleck, Lopez and Anthony announced the end of their union in a joint statement. "It was a very bad marriage, and Jennifer got the courage to end things," an insider says, adding, "[Marc] was a terrible husband."


At issue: Anthony's raging jealousy over Lopez's career, his compulsion to control everything from her business endeavors and even her famous wardrobe, and, according to multiple sources, at least one extra-marital affair in 2009.

And despite her ultra-glamourous, ultra-confident persona in the public eye, Lopez "actually has low self-esteem," one pal explains. "And Marc really played into that insecurity. That's why she put up with his abuse for such a long time."
