They get their headline; you get your publicity.

Yeah, not her friends and family, but her fans who sign up to her subscription-based website.

Their reconciliation inspired Lopez to release her first album in 10 years:This Is Me…Now.

It feels too much like youre trying to prove something instead of just living it, Fonda said.

Not only that but Lopez herself acknowledged how uncomfortable it made Ben.

I dont think [Ben] is very comfortable with me doing all of this, she said.

He doesnt want to stop me.

But that doesnt mean hes comfortable being the muse.

TakeRyan Gosling and Eva Mendesfor example.

Thats how much they value their privacy.

Mendes even responded to a fan on Instagram who asked why she and Ryan dont attend events together.

Like these photos Ive been posting, Im only comfortable posting because its already out there.

Adding, By not comfortable, I mean exposing our very private life that we value.

She literally used her engagement and wedding to promote subscriptions to her website.

First peek at my wedding looks at OnTheJLo.com was the caption on one Instagram post.

She released an album, film, and documentary inspired by Ben Affleck.
