J-Lo: Motherhood has changed my life
The actress-singer has revealed that bringing up her 18-month-old twins Max and Emme has put the brakes on her professional life.
“There’s nothing as huge as giving birth to another human being and having to be responsible for another life,” she said.
“There’s you before kids, and there’s you after kids – and they’re not the same you.”
Lopez turned 40 in July, and said that all aspects of her life have changed.
“[Parenthood] totally changes your perspective on everything,” she said.
“You don’t come first anymore. There’s somebody else you care more about than yourself.”
She said she has now stepped down from the “hamster-wheel” of her multi-faceted professional life.
“I’m at a point in my life when I just don’t feel the need to put out anything unless I totally, absolutely feel it says what I want to say,” Lopez said about her music career.
Despite being married to hubby Marc Anthony for five years, she admitted that she is “still figuring [marriage] out as I go along”, and revealed that she has had “hard experiences and a lot of ups and downs and a lot of mistakes”.
“I’m old enough to know now that relationships take work. That’s it’s not an easy thing,” she said.
