For those keeping score, this isn’t the first time the songstress declared she’s ‘just vibing’ on her own. Fans can’t help but roll their eyes at the irony of it all.

One moment, Lopez is basking in relationship bliss; the next, she’s claiming independence. It’s a cycle as predictable as her hit songs. So, is JLo serious this time? Let’s find out if her latest claims hold any water—or if they’re just more of the same.

Jennifer Lopez has been in the dating game longer than most of us have been alive. With three marriages and countless high-profile relationships, it’s clear that love has been a major theme in her life.

In her recent chat with Nikki Glaser for Interview Magazine, the pop star mentioned that she’s taking a step back to focus on herself. She explained:

Now I’m excited, when you say you’re just going to be on your own. Yes, I’m not looking for anybody, because everything that I’ve done over the past 25, 30 years, being in these different challenging situations, what can I f*cking do when it’s just me flying on my own.

But hold up—this isn’t her first rodeo. Back in 2014, after her split from Casper Smart, Lopez said in The Meredith Vieira Show that she needed time to chill and get to know herself. Here’s her quote:

I’m just being on my own. I feel like I need that right now. I’ve been in relationships kind of back to back my whole life and I just needed time.

Then again, in 2015, the Bronx native insisted she was single despite kissing her ex-boyfriend, Smart. When asked about her relationship status, the actress replied to US Weekly: “I’m single right now.”

So, what gives? Fans have begun to see a pattern: the On the Floor hitmaker says she’s going solo, then jumps back into the dating pool. It’s like watching a romantic comedy on repeat—cute, but a little predictable.

While Lopez seems to genuinely want to focus on self-growth, the question remains: is she really ready to embrace singlehood, or is she just waiting for the next handsome prince to sweep her off her feet?

Fans are split. Some are cheering her on, while others are calling ‘BS’ on her latest claims. For years, Jennifer Lopez has been typecast as someone who can’t stay single for long. And honestly, can you blame them?

The star had her fair share of flings and serious relationships, and her constant reassurances that she’s fine on her own feel a bit like a broken record.

Sure, she talks a big game about self-love and growth, but her past statements make it hard for fans to take her seriously. Many are left wondering if her independence is just a phase or a genuine lifestyle change. Check out some fan reactions: 

After all, it’s been a tough year for her, filled with ups and downs. Yet, fans still cling to the hope that maybe this time, Lopez will finally find the peace she’s been seeking.
