Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck finalized their divorce on Monday and, as expected, she’s keeping the $5.6 million, 8.5-carat green diamond engagement ring. It’s engraved with the phrase, “not.going.anywhere.” J-Lo supposedly keeps all her rings, which means she now has a collection of SIX engagement rings worth an estimated $17 million. She has a $130,000 ring from her first husband, Ojani Noa . . . then she upgraded to a $200,000 rock when her second husband, Cris Judd, proposed. Her first ring from Ben Affleck was worth $2.6 million, but they never made it to the altar. Husband #3, Marc Anthony, put a $6.5 million ring on her finger. Her ring from Alex Rodriguez was “only” worth $2 million . . . but again, they never got married. And now all that bling is joined in the drawer by Ben 2.0’s $5.6 million ring.

If a big-name celeb reaches out to you asking for money . . . there’s a 100% chance it’s not really them. A 76-year-old woman in Georgia is out thousands of dollars after “Alan Jackson” asked for a loan. It obviously wasn’t the real Alan Jackson. She told cops that the scam started last June after she posted something about the singer on Facebook. Someone claiming to be his manager messaged her and said they’d put her in touch with him. She thought she was talking to the real Alan Jackson for months. Then in October, he started asking her to send him Apple gift cards. He said he needed the money because he was going through a divorce, and his assets were frozen. Alan is NOT getting divorced. He and his wife Denise have been married since 1979. The woman ended up sending 36 Apple gift cards totaling $2,917.
