Jennifer Lopez, Alex Rodriguez, and Their Kids Are Filming Dance Videos to Pass the Time


Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez are just like us. They too are social distancing and staying at home to slow the spread of coronavirus. Naturally, they have a lot more time on their hands, and they’re spending some of it filming iconic dancing videos with their kids (Emme, Max, Natasha, and Ella).

Case in point: this new clip Rodriguez posted on Instagram of him, J. Lo, and the whole fam. “Worst to best ?❤️,” he wrote in the caption. He kicks things off and J.Lo, of course, is the encore. Watch the video for yourself, below:

Talent definitely seems to run in this family. Emme, whose father is superstar Marc Anthony, performed on stage with her mom during this year’s Super Bowl and blew everyone away with her voice and poise. Those pipes!

Earlier last week, Lopez posted a funny video of her son, Max, delivering drinks. “We can’t go out to any restaurants or anything but the service and entertainment here is pretty good…? #StaySafe #familytime,” she wrote on Instagram.

Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez have not said anything yet about their upcoming wedding. (The couple announced their engagement in March 2019. They’ve been dating publicly since February 2017.) According to reports, they were set to wed this summer. But given the uncertainty of what the next few months will look like in the United States, it’s unclear at this point if the nuptials will be postponed

In the meantime, we are very much looking forward to more dance videos from this fun-loving family. Maybe J.Lo can post some tutorials of the dances from some of her most famous videos, like “Jenny From the Block.” #JLoChallenge, anyone? With all this time at home, I should be able to master at least one combination of choreography, right? Right?!

Real Women of Are Sharing Bikini Selfies on Instagram Because of the Jennifer Lopez Challenge


Jennifer Lopez unintentionally started a viral body positivity challenge on Instagram after her latest selfie inspired women of all ages to post bikini photos with the hashtag #JLoChallenge.

Between performing in the 2020 Super Bowl Halftime Show, starring as a seasoned stripper/scammer in Hustlers, continuing to rock that green Versace dress, the 50-year-old mother of two becomes more of an icon by the day.

On February 16, the singer and actor star posted a mirror selfie of herself in a white bikini on Instagram. She captioned the snap “relaxed and recharged,” but little did she know this was the beginning of the latest social media movement. Aside from those toned abs (which, damn), the viral challenge is about more than looking good”—it’s about the power women’s bodies have at all ages and sizes.

J. Lo’s post inspired women across the social media platform to post their own version of her selfie, as well as share why they’ve decided to step outside their comfort zones. Maria Kang, a health and fitness influencer and founder of No Excuses Mom, was one of the first to share a photo of herself in a white bikini alongside an important message to moms.

“Thank you @jlo for inspiring this spontaneous pic in a white bikini this morning,” she captioned her post. “Not a celebrity. Not getting millions to look great in a movie (hello, Hustlers! ? or dating a hot athlete (although my hubby is kinda cute!) BUT, it doesn’t matter… Own your story.”

The 39-year-old continued: “If she can do it, if I can do it, if thousands of working moms who come in all sizes, shapes, and ages can do it—then YOU CAN DO IT!!!⁣” She then encouraged her 77,000 followers to post their own bathroom selfie in a bikini for the #jlochallenge.”

Lopez eventually caught wind of the challenge and applauded all the women who have proudly taken part in it. “Keep growing, keep pushing,” the mother-of-two wrote on her Instagram Story.

Take a look at some of the beautiful women who’ve shared their stories in honor of the #JLOChallenge, below:

The viral #JLoChallenge is a glorious reminder that beauty, health, and confidence are not exclusive to celebrities.

Jennifer Lopez Was Too Busy Looking Iconic at an Oscars After-Party to Worry About Her Snub


I’m sure Lopez had a blast at whatever after-party she chose to hit up. Here’s hoping she had a kiki with the other MVPs of awards season (in my eyes): Laura Dern, Florence Pugh, and Bong Joon-ho. You know they all wanted Lopez to get nominated for Hustlers.

Let’s take a moment to reflect on one of Lopez’s captions from last night: “Dance the night away, live your life and stay young on the floor.” She quoted her own lyrics, people. I truly cannot stress that enough. The power that she has.

J.Lo also graced our feeds with a full-body moment on her Instagram Stories:

Of course, Jennifer Lopez’s snub is not the Oscars’s only notable misstep. The Academy conveniently forgot that female directors are a thing and that the actors in Parasite probably contributed to its raging success. At this point, the Oscars’s only saving grace is all of Bong Joon-ho’s wins, Janelle Monae, and Brad Pitt’s tongue. Otherwise, they were a Jennifer-Lopez-less disappointment.

Here’s hoping next year we see a more diverse batch of nominees and maybe even a retroactive Oscar nom for J.Lo. What? It could happen! I’m putting it in the universe.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry Had Dinner with Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez in Miami


Meghan Markle and Prince Harry may be enjoying their “quiet life” in Canada, since stepping down as working members of the royal family—but that doesn’t mean they’re not making moves behind the scenes.

It was recently reported that the Sussexes popped over to Miami for an appearance at a private JP Morgan event, where Harry gave a speech that touched on mental health, as well as their decision to leave the UK for North America, at least part-time. Not to diminish the importance of his speech, but I’m just as interested in a dinner that reportedly took place following the speech between the couple and Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez.

Page Six reports the two couples dined at Habitat, a restaurant inside the 1Hotel South Beach, on Thursday night (February 6). “Harry and Meghan got on really well with Jennifer and Alex, and spent some time chatting with them over dinner,” their source said. “J. Lo was overheard inviting the couple and their baby Archie to her and Alex’s house in Miami to spend time with them and their kids.”

While we’ll likely never know exactly what the foursome talked about, here are some topics that I hope came up: J. Lo and Shakira’s Super Bowl halftime performance and the ridiculous sexist backlash; the royals’ trip to a Major League Baseball game in the U.K. last summer and whether or not they’ll raise Archie as Yankees fan; Lopez’s Oscar snub and that “Criminal” dance routine from Hustlers; a personal invite to the Lopez/Rodriguez nuptials; and possible charitable projects they can all work on together.

Seriously, what a power couple dinner. It was also rumored that Markle and Harry stayed with the duchess’s good friend, Serena Williams, at her home in Palm Beach while they were in Florida. So while they Sussexes may have put some distance between themselves and the British royal family, they’re happily spending time with American royalty.

Jennifer Lopez Confirms She Paid Homage to 'Hustlers' During Her Super Bowl Performance

“That was my little nod to Hustlers,” Lopez confirmed to Fallon. “I was like, ‘I learned some pole things, lemme see what I could do, we can put it in there.'”

In addition to putting her hours learning to pole dance for the movie to use, she also wanted her performance to be a demonstration of power. “I just felt, again, like it was a very powerful move,” Lopez said. “It was like, ‘Look Ma, no hands!'”

Power moves weren’t limited to Lopez’s quick Hustlers call-out. She started her performance on top of a replica of the Empire State building to represent female power. “I wanted it to be like women were on top of the world, we’re on top of the world right now!” Lopez said. She added that she chose “Jenny From the Block” as her song for that moment because, “I’m a New York girl,” she added.

Lopez had a lot of choreography to pull off, but she told Fallon it didn’t faze her. “I’m good!” she said. “That’s what happens, right before you go on you start getting in the zone. That’s why I’m doing all of those crazy things and my face is like dead face, because you have to stay so calm.”

Even with her experience on the stage, pole dancing was a challenge for Lopez ahead of Hustlers. “That steel pole is unforgiving, and you just have to figure it out,” she said perviously. And on her YouTube channel last year, Lopez revealed that she trained for her Hustlers role with the help of an aerialist and practice poles installed in each of her homes.

After all that work, we’re glad Lopez could give Hustlers its due on the Super Bowl stage. Watch Jennifer Lopez’s full interview with Jimmy Fallon, below.

See the Sweet Moment Jennifer Lopez Shared With Her Daughter Right Before the Halftime Show


Jennifer Lopez and Shakira totally owned the stage during Sunday night’s Super Bowl halftime show in Miami with one of the best performances we’ve seen in years. But there was another rising star who everyone is still buzzing about: Lopez’s 11-year-old daughter, Emme.

Now we’re getting to see the lead-up to the headline-making performance via a behind-the-scenes video shared by J. Lo on YouTube and Instagram. It opens with the singer giving her daughter a sweet kiss on the forehead before they hug each other tight and then head down the tunnel toward the field.

“These moments were captured just minutes before we hit the stage last night,” she wrote in a caption on Instagram. “All I want my girls, the little girls on stage with me and all over the world to know is how to use their voices and be proud of everything they are. We are proud to recognize that all of us together are what makes this beautiful country truly great. ✨❤️??”

Emme had amazing poise on stage at the Super Bowl, and you can see how both calm and psyched she is in the video. It really should come as no surprise given the fact that her parents are Marc Anthony and freaking J. Lo, but still…it’s the Super Bowl, in front of an enormous crowd and one of the biggest television audiences in the world. If you follow Jennifer Lopez on social media, you may have heard snippets of Emme’s fantastic voice before, but for most people, her cameo on “Let’s Get Loud” and “Born in the USA” was the first time.

YouTube

Emme totally crushed it, naturally. “Baby Emme absolutely killing it. look at this little star,” one person tweeted after the performance. Ryan Seacrest loved it too, writing, “The choreo…. the throwback songs…. the production… Emme’s surprise appearance. Incredible
@jlo @shakira! #SuperBowl”

We can’t wait to see what Emme does next.

Watch the full behind-the-scenes video below:
