‘This might be my last album ever’

Jennifer Lopez’s new album, out Friday, is called “This Is Me… Now.”

But apparently, a better title for J.Lo’s first studio LP in 10 years — since 2014’s “A.K.A.” — might have been “This Is It.”

“The truth is I don’t even know if I’ll ever make another album after this,” Lopez, 54, told “Entertainment Tonight” as she explained the different album covers that they did especially for the JLovers — as her faithful fans are known.

“It’s such the kind of quintessential kind of Jennifer Lopez J.Lo project, and I really feel very fulfilled, so they really will be collector’s items at a certain point.”

After hinting at her possible retirement from the recording studio, Lopez quipped, “Don’t tell Benny [Medina, her longtime manager] that that’s what I’m thinking — this might be my last album ever.”

Lopez’s ninth studio album, “This Is Me… Now,” is a sequel to 2002’s “This Is Me… Then,” her third studio LP, which featured the hits “Jenny from the Block” and “All I Have.”

Lopez’s now-husband, Ben Affleck, was infamously featured in the “Jenny from the Block” video, and the singer dedicated “Dear Ben” to him.

Similarly, “This Is Me… Now,”  led by the first single, “Can’t Get Enough,” will reflect their relationship today — two years after they finally got married after calling off their first engagement in 2004.

“Our relationship crumbled under the weight of the pressure,” Lopez told Variety.

“We lost a sense of ourselves, and we needed to separate because we didn’t know how to survive it. I had to figure myself out, and he had to figure himself out,” she added.

“This Is Me… Now” — which will be accompanied by the Prime Video short film “This Is Me… Now: A Love Story,” also out Friday — brings things full circle.

“I feel like it’s the end of a kind of an era for me and the beginning of a new one, so I would never say never,” she told “ET.” “But right now I feel like I really put my heart and soul into this, and I’m very excited — and it definitely took a lot out of me.”
