Jennifer Lopez has been linked to Drake, 30, lately.

And earlier this week the 47-year-old bombshell was spotted at El Floridita night club in Los Angeles with ex Casper Smart, 29.

So it makes sense that the Shades Of Blue actress talked to March issue of W magazine about younger guys. 'Men in their 20s are very confident and cocky,' the All I Have Las Vegas performer said.

She continued: 'And women are super insecure. And then it flips: Men get super insecure, and women get comfortable in their own skin, in a way that makes them more beautiful.'

And the star - who has World Of Dance and Bye Bye Birdie coming out this year - said she feels amazing.

'I never appreciated my body or my looks when I was in my 20s,' said the mother of two.

'Now I’m like, Look at me! Look at you! Not in a conceited or arrogant way — I just appreciate myself in a way I didn’t when I was that age,” she said. “And it’s not about perfection. I like the scars that I have.'

The American Idol vet also addressed why she takes on so many projects: 'I think living and pushing outside your comfort zone is the only way to be happy, ultimately.

'In the middle of it, risk is uncomfortable. But to me, there’s something super­ exciting about that. It’s probably the way I’m wired. Most people don’t like it, but I’m like, "Yeah! Let’s do more, let’s take more, let’s see more…" Then I’m in it and, like, "Wow, this is a lot."'

Also in the issue was Kate Moss, who went completely naked. 

Jessica Chastain, Taraji P Henson and Donatella Versace rounded out the portfolio from photographers Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott. 

Moss, 43, looked flawless in her image where she had a gold coat falling away from her.

The superstar got her start as a Calvin Klein model when only a teenager. And she shared with W that her body confidence was low at that point.

'My mum said, "I don’t think you’re that photogenic!"' she shared. 'From the beginning, photographers always got me to take my clothes off, even though I don’t like my body at all. I just had to get comfortable with being naked.'

Empire actress Taraji addressed her success in her forties.

'It’s supposed to be over for me at 46, but here I am. I’m a late bloomer, and I’m okay with that. Know why? Late bloomers last looong,' she said.

Donatella, whose company Versace has been thriving for decades, talked the power of fashion.

'I only truly understood it recently, in the last five or six years.

'Before that I felt I had to produce the "right" kind of Versace collection.

'But now I am designing for a woman who works, who has children—or maybe she doesn’t work, but she definitely has power.

'The power to keep on going forward. I have to succeed in showing women that we can do more, that we are stronger than men.'
