Jennifer Lopez gets honest about biggest acting regret
In a score of movies, Jennifer Lopez has proved her acting mettle. Still, there is a film which she turned down, ending up as her biggest acting regret.
“[Director] Adrian Lyne offered me Unfaithful,” she says, referring to the 2002 movie which stars Diane Lane, who earned a nod at the Academy Awards for her performance as Connie Summer.
In the interview with Howard Stern, the pop icon further reveals the script “wasn’t good” at first, but she credited the movie’s director, who “then made it great.”
“And Diane Lane got nominated for the Oscar,” the 56-year-old adds. This leads Howard to ask, “Is that hard to live with?”
“It’s funny. It haunts me,” J.Lo responds. “It haunts me a little bit, because it’s, like, the one that I turned down.”
She continues, “It was just like, ‘Why did you turn down working with Adrian Lyne? What were you thinking?’ I don’t know what was going on in my mind at the time. Who knows what was going on with me at the time?”
Meanwhile, Jennifer’s latest movie, Kiss of the Spider Woman, is in theatres.

Who is Keith Urban’s new rumoured romance?
Keith Urban is once again at the center of attention, this time over growing speculation about a possible new romance following his recent divorce from Nicole Kidman.
Just months after the end of their nearly two-decade marriage, rumours say that the country music star may have found love with rising singer-songwriter Karley Scott Collins, a name that’s quickly gaining fame in Nashville circles.
Who is Karley Scott Collins?
At 26, Collins is steadily building her own career and is far from an unknown face.
She was born and raised in Lake City, Florida, and first found success as a child actress, appearing in projects including Once Upon a Time, The Hottie & the Nottie, and Amish Grace between 2006 and 2012.
Music, however, became her true calling.
She has previously shared that she picked up her first guitar at age nine after being encouraged to learn it for an acting role, a moment that sparked a lifelong passion for songwriting and country storytelling.
Now signed to Sony Music Nashville, Collins released her debut album Flight Risk in September.
Her gritty vocals and emotion-driven lyrics have helped her stand out, earning her spots opening for artists such as Willie Nelson, Charles Kelley, Carly Pearce, and notably, Keith Urban himself.
When did Karley Scott Collins and Keith Urban meet?
Collins was announced as one of the opening acts for Urban’s High and Alive tour in December 2024, a collaboration that many believe deepened their connection.
While some fans assumed they met during the tour, reports suggest the two first crossed paths in 2024, when Collins sent Urban her song Write One for a possible collaboration.
Neither Urban nor Collins has publicly confirmed a relationship, but insiders continue to fuel speculation.
Are Karley Scott Collins and Keith Urban ‘living together’?
According to the Daily Mail, “everyone is adamant” that Urban is seeing someone new and that it’s “serious.”
One source claimed, “I hear he [Urban] has someone, which is why the girls are publicly supporting Mom,” adding, “People think they are even living together.”
Urban, 58, finalised his divorce from Kidman earlier this month after 19 years of marriage. The former couple waived spousal and child support, with Urban granted visitation with daughters Sunday and Faith every other weekend.
Sources say the split was emotionally difficult, and Urban is reportedly channeling that experience into a new album, rumoured to reflect the breakdown of his marriage.
As Collins continues to rise in the country music scene, her rumoured connection to one of the genre’s biggest names has only spiked fans’ interest in her journey.
For now, the relationship remains unconfirmed, but all eyes are on Nashville to see what unfolds next.

King Charles issues Balmoral update as Andrew ‘abuses’ royal residence
King Charles is forging ahead with Balmoral Castle plans despite a new allegation linking Andrew and Epstein to the beloved royal residence.
According to a social media announcement shared by the royal estate over the weekend, visitors will once again be invited inside the King’s Scottish home following the winter break.
In an Instagram post, Balmoral detailed what guests can expect when the castle reopens. “Tickets for Balmoral Castle in Spring & Summer 2026 are now available to book online,” the message read.
From March 28 through mid-August, visitors can explore the grounds and gardens, the Ballroom Exhibition, the Mews Gift Shop and the restaurant. The post added that “Afternoon Tea with General Admission during the summer months is also available,” along with several premium experiences, including interior castle tours and the Balmoral Expedition Tour.
“Whether you’re planning a return visit or discovering Balmoral for the first time, it’s a wonderful way to experience the Highlands at the Highland home of the Royal Family across the spring and summer seasons,” the statement continued.
The update comes as Charles has been enjoying the festive period at Sandringham, though Balmoral has recently found itself back in the headlines for less celebratory reasons. An exclusive report by The Mail on Sunday alleged that a former model was flown to Balmoral in 1999 by Jeffrey Epstein and told she would be expected to massage the then-Prince Andrew. The woman, now in her 50s, said she refused, explaining, “It felt weird and I didn’t want to.”
She claimed Andrew personally welcomed Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell and herself to the 50,000-acre estate, where they were entertained with a picnic.
Royal author Andrew Lownie said the new allegations raises serious concerns. “That this young woman was flown to Balmoral raises questions about Andrew’s abuse of royal residences and the suspicion that courtiers turned a blind eye,” he expressed.

Al Pacino and ex Noor Alfallah step out together amid reconciliation rumours
Al Pacino and Noor Alfallah have once again set tongues wagging after being spotted together on a dinner date in Los Angeles over a year after their split.
According to Page Six, the Oscar winner, 85, and the film producer, 32, were photographed arriving at San Vicente Bungalows, a members-only hotspot in West Hollywood on Friday, January 16. Alfallah kept things sleek in a dark overcoat layered over a little black dress, paired with sheer stockings and knee-high combat boots, while Pacino opted for a dark trench coat, black trousers, and sneakers.
The outing follows a cryptic exchange Alfallah had with a TMZ photographer earlier this year. When asked how their son Roman was doing, she replied, “He’s 2 now. Getting big!” Pressed on whether she and Pacino were officially back together, she deflected, saying, “We’re together every day!” She added, “Who doesn’t want to be together with him? He’s the coolest guy.”
She also used the moment to plug their professional collaboration, Dead Man’s Wire, signalling that their bond extends beyond parenting.
Speculation around Pacino’s personal life intensified in December after he was seen wearing a gold ring on his left hand, though a rep later clarified that the actor “is not married.”
While a representative previously told People magazine that Pacino and Alfallah are “very good friends” and focused on co-parenting, their latest public appearance is sure to reignite questions about whether romance is once again in the picture.
