Could someone kindly direct Jennifer Lopez to her closest animal shelter — because she’s single, loving it and just needs a few more cats to make the transition complete.Jennifer Lopez attends the 25th edition of The Los Angeles Latino International Film Festival in May.Emma McIntyre via Getty ImagesOn Wednesday, the rom-com queen confirmed to Jimmy Kimmel that she is single. “I should have done it sooner!” Lopez said, causing the studio audience to erupt with applause, laughter and a few gasps.“I’ve been doing it all wrong,” Lopez continued with a laugh. “I’ve been doing it all wrong, trust me.”The remarks feel especially spicy considering they were made just two years after her divorce from Ben Affleck. The former couple, dubbed “Bennifer,” became a tabloid obsession in the early 2000s when they first began to date after meeting on the set of the box office dud, “Gigli.” They eventually called off their engagement in 2003, citing “the excessive media attention” they were receiving.

So much so, that she could be considered the Elizabeth Taylor of her generation.Lopez with her ex-husband, singer Marc Anthony, in 2005.

It’s fantastic. I love it.”When Kimmel mentioned it might be difficult for her to meet someone considering her fame, Lopez waved it off.“I’ll meet somebody somewhere one day, if they’re good enough, I don’t know,” she said.Well, with that attitude, we’d like to present Lopez with a bathtub caddy, a Magic Wand and more free time to spend however you see fit. Welcome to the single cat lady club, JLo. It’s peaceful.RelatedJennifer Lopez Ben Affleck
