As promised, the full Jennifer Lopez editorial in the August issue of Glamour magazine.

J.Lo on her surprising chat with Victoria Beckham: “[Beckham] said, ‘People would never guess you’re insecure. Are you? Because I know I am.’ It was like she had to hear it from me. And I said, ‘Yeah, of course I am.’ She said, ‘But you seem so confident.’ And I said, ‘Because I am confident! It doesn’t mean I don’t have my moments. But you have to remember the value of your individuality- that you have something special and different to offer that nobody else can.’ She said, ‘Oh, I love hearing this. What you’re saying is so great!’ It was really sweet.”

J.Lo on what she would tell her younger self, if she could go back in time ten years: “The truth is, everything that’s happened was supposed to happen. That doesn’t mean I don’t look back and think, God, I wish I hadn’t had to go through some of those things. But then I think, you know what? It didn’t finish me- and I look at where I am now! So I would tell [25-year-old J. Lo], ‘Always follow your heart. Sometimes it’s gonna hurt, but you’re going to be fine.’ And I am: I’m in the best place I’ve ever been.”
