Jennifer Lopez has made it clear she isn't looking for love following her divorce from Ben Affleck, the latter of who recently described their short-lived marriage as 'embarrassing'.

Having recently wowed on stage during her performance at the American Music Awards on Monday (May 26), the 55-year-old pop star was asked the biggest difference between her time hosting the ceremony 10 years ago and now.

"I don't know? I would say, you know, I pretty much remain the same [her music style]," J-Lo explained to reporter Lauren Herbert for Access Hollywood, before touching on how she's in a good state of mind now - seven months on from her split with Affleck.

She continued: "I do evolve and grow, in a way I think now I'm much more happy than I was even then. I always enjoyed my work, but now I'm at a place in my life where I feel like I can.

"There was always so much kind of angst with everything before, it's like, 'we got to be this, and we got to be that, and we got to do this, and we got to top this and do that', and now I just feel like I just want to enjoy it, I just want to enjoy it and be in the moment.

"And, yeah, so that's, I think that's the biggest difference. Yeah, a little more happy and at peace."

Lopez officially filed for divorce in August 2024, just over two years after they wed in July 2022, but the singer has since explained that they initially separated on April 26, 2024 for the second time, with the pair having first dated between 2002 and 2004.

J-Lo was further asked by Herbert on Monday whether she was going to play the field with comedian and actor Tiffany Haddish - who told Access Hollywood that she intended to.

Lopez replied: "She said that to me! I said, 'girl, I'm not looking for no man'. I'm happy right now, I'm not trying to ruin it. Okay?"

It comes after Affleck told GQ that he was 'embarrassed' by their break-up.

"I guess there’s a tendency to look at break-ups and want to identify root causes or something," he explained.

"But honestly, like I said, the truth is much more quotidian than probably people would believe or would be interesting.

"Yeah, there’s no scandal, no soap opera, no intrigue. The truth is, when you talk to somebody, 'Hey, what happened?', well, there is no: 'This is what happened'.

"It’s just a story about people trying to figure out their lives and relationships in ways that we all sort of normally do. And as you get older, this is true for me, I assume it’s true for most people, there is no 'So-and-so did this' or 'This was the big event'.

"It’s really, it sounds more like a couple’s therapy session, which—you would tune out of someone else’s couple’s therapy after a while."

Before adding: "For one thing, you start going, 'Okay, clearly this person has got these issues.

"Clearly they have these issues', and the reason I don’t want to share that, is just sort of embarrassing. It feels vulnerable."
