Jennifer Lynn Affleck[1] (née Lopez;[2] born July 24, 1969), also known as J.Lo, is an American singer, actress, and dancer. In 1991, she began appearing as a Fly Girl dancer on the sketch comedy television series In Living Color, where she remained a regular until she decided to pursue an acting career in 1993. For her first leading role in Selena (1997), she became the first Hispanic actress to earn over US$1 million for a film. She went on to star in Anaconda (1997) and Out of Sight (1998), and established herself as the highest-paid Hispanic actress in Hollywood.[3]

Jennifer Lopez made her foray into the music industry with the release of "On the 6" in 1999, an album that significantly contributed to the Latin pop movement in American music. She subsequently appeared in the psychological horror film "The Cell" in 2000. Lopez became the first woman to concurrently have a number-one album ("J.Lo") and a top-grossing film ("The Wedding Planner") in the same week in 2001. Her 2002 remix album, "J to tha L–O! The Remixes", set a record as the first remix album to debut at the top of the US Billboard 200. That same year, she released her third studio album, "This Is Me... Then", and played a leading role in "Maid in Manhattan".

Following the release of "Gigli" in 2003, which did not meet critical or commercial expectations, Lopez achieved success with romantic comedies "Shall We Dance?" (2004) and "Monster-in-Law" (2005). Her fifth studio album, "Como Ama una Mujer" (2007), recorded the highest first-week sales for a debut Spanish album in the United States. After a period of lesser success, she revived her career in 2011 with a role as a judge on "American Idol" and the release of her seventh studio album, "Love?". From 2016 to 2018, Lopez starred in the police drama "Shades of Blue" and performed in her residency show "Jennifer Lopez: All I Have" at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas. She also produced and was a judge on "World of Dance" from 2017 to 2020. In 2019, she received critical acclaim for her role in the film "Hustlers," where she portrayed a stripper.

With a cumulative film gross of US$3.1 billion and estimated global sales of 80 million records,[4] she is considered the most influential Hispanic entertainer in North America. The magazine Time listed her among their 100 most influential people in the world in 2018. For her contributions to the recording industry, she has a landmark star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and has received the Billboard Icon Award and the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award.[5] Her other ventures include beauty and clothing lines, fragrances, a production company, and a charitable foundation.[6]

Early life

Jennifer Lynn Lopez was born on July 24, 1969 in the Bronx, a borough of New York City, and raised in its Castle Hill neighborhood.[7][8] Her parents, David López and Guadalupe Rodríguez, were born in Puerto Rico and moved to the U.S. mainland as children.[2][9] After serving in the army, David worked as a computer technician at Guardian Insurance Company.[10] Guadalupe was a homemaker for the first ten years of Lopez's life and later worked as a Tupperware salesperson[11] and a kindergarten and gym teacher.[12][13] They divorced in the 1990s after 33 years of marriage.[11]

Lopez is a middle child; she has an older sister, Leslie, and a younger sister, Lynda.[14] She was raised in a Roman Catholic family; she attended Mass every Sunday and received a Catholic education, attending Holy Family School and the all-girls Preston High School.[15] In school, Lopez ran track on a national level, participated in gymnastics, and was on the softball team.[16][17] She danced in school musicals and played a lead role in a production of Godspell.[18]

There was "lots of music" in the typically Puerto Rican household,[19] and Lopez and her sisters were encouraged to sing, dance and create their own plays for family events.[18][17] West Side Story made a particular impression on the young Lopez and she wanted to be an entertainer from an early age.[20] At the age of five, she began taking dance lessons at Ballet Hispánico on the Upper West Side.[21] As a teenager, she learned flamenco, jazz, and ballet at the Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club[20] and taught dance to younger students, including Kerry Washington.[22] After graduating from high school, she had a part-time secretarial job at a law firm[23][20] and studied business at New York's Baruch College for one semester.[21][18] Lopez made her acting debut at age 16 with a small role in the 1986 film My Little Girl.[24][25] At age 18, she enrolled as a full-time student at Manhattan's Phil Black Dance Studio, where she had already taken night classes in jazz and tap dance.[26][27][20] Her parents were unhappy with her decision to leave college to pursue a dance career.[18] Her mother asked her to move out of the family home and they stopped speaking for eight months.[18][28] Lopez moved to Manhattan, sleeping in the dance studio's office for the first few months.[26][27]

Career

Professional dancing and early acting roles (1989–1996)

Lopez's first professional job came in 1989 when she spent five months touring Europe with the musical revue show Golden Musicals of Broadway. She was the only member of the chorus not to have a solo and later characterized it as a pivotal moment where she realized the importance of a "tough skin" in the entertainment business.[29][30] In 1990, she danced alongside MC Hammer in an episode of Yo! MTV Raps[31] and traveled around Japan for four months as a chorus member in Synchronicity.[20] When she returned to the United States, she was hired as a backup dancer for New Kids on the Block's performance of "Games" at the 1991 American Music Awards.[32] She traveled around America with regional productions of the musicals Jesus Christ Superstar and Oklahoma![33] During this period, Lopez danced in music videos including Doug E. Fresh's "Summertime", Richard Rogers' "Can't Stop Loving You", EPMD's "Rampage"[34] and Samantha Fox's "(Hurt Me! Hurt Me!) But the Pants Stay On".[35]

Lopez's most high-profile job as a professional dancer was as a Fly Girl jazz-funk dancer on the sketch comedy television series In Living Color, which starred comedians including Jamie Foxx and Jim Carrey.[36] Lopez moved to Los Angeles in late 1991; she filmed In Living Color during the day and attended acting classes taught by Aaron Speiser at night. After appearing as a Fly Girl in seasons three and four of In Living Color, Lopez left to work as a backup dancer for Janet Jackson, and appeared in the music video for "That's the Way Love Goes".[37] She was scheduled to tour with Jackson on her Janet World Tour in late 1993 but opted to pursue an acting career instead.[38]

Lopez's first professional acting job was a small recurring role on the television show South Central (1994). Lopez acquired an agent and was cast in the CBS show Second Chances and its spin-off Hotel Malibu. She appeared in the direct-to-video drama film Lost in the Wild (1993).[39] For her first major movie role, in Gregory Nava's 1995 drama Mi Familia,[40] Lopez received a nomination for the Independent Spirit Award for Best Supporting Actress.[40] Lopez then starred in the action comedy Money Train (1995). In 1996, Lopez had a supporting role in the comedy Jack.[41] She next starred opposite Jack Nicholson in the neo-noir thriller Blood and Wine (1997).[42]

Movie and pop stardom (1997–2002)

With her casting as the singer Selena Quintanilla-Pérez in the biopic Selena (1997), Lopez became the first Latina actress to earn $1 million and she received her first Golden Globe nomination.[43] Lopez participated in an intense auditioning process[44] and spent time with the late singer's family in Corpus Christi, Texas before filming began.[45]

Later in 1997, Lopez participated opposite Ice Cube in the horror film Anaconda.[46] In the crime film U Turn (1997),[47] Lopez appeared topless in a sex scene that was added by director Oliver Stone during filming.

Lopez starred opposite George Clooney in the crime caper Out of Sight (1998), Steven Soderbergh's adaptation of the Elmore Leonard novel of the same name.[48] Cast as a deputy federal marshal who falls for a charming criminal, Lopez won rave reviews for her performance.[49] In 1998, Lopez provided the voice of Azteca in the animated film Antz.[50]

Lopez launched a music career in 1999.[51] Lopez's new manager Benny Medina sought to position her as "a brand name that will cross over into all media."[30] Lopez recorded a Spanish-language demo for circulation among prospective labels. Tommy Mottola, the head of Sony Music's Work Group, signed her but suggested that she sing in English instead.[52] Her debut album On the 6, named after the 6 Subway line which connected her childhood home in the Bronx to Manhattan,[53] was a success and Lopez's debut single, "If You Had My Love", topped the Billboard Hot 100,[54] with another single, "Waiting for Tonight", reaching number eight. In 2000, Lopez and then-boyfriend Sean Combs attended the Grammy Awards, with Lopez wearing a plunging green Versace silk chiffon dress.[55] The dress generated worldwide attention.[56] Lopez returned to the big screen in 2000, starring in the psychological thriller The Cell.

Lopez became the first woman to have a number one film and album simultaneously when, in early 2001, the romantic comedy The Wedding Planner, co-starring Matthew McConaughey, and her sophomore album J.Lo were released in the same week.[57] The album J.Lo received mixed reviews. Jon Pareles of Rolling Stone was unimpressed by her "merely adequate, studio-assisted voice": "While dance pop doesn't necessarily demand great singers, Lopez is just scraping by."[58] J.Lo ultimately became the best-selling release of her career,[59] and included the singles "Love Don't Cost a Thing" and "I'm Real", the latter of which reached number one in the US.[60] In other 2001 work, Lopez launched her first business venture, the clothing line J.Lo by Jennifer Lopez,[61] and starred opposite Jim Caviezel in the romantic drama Angel Eyes.[62] Lopez's performance was well-reviewed.[63][64]

The romantic comedy Maid in Manhattan (2002), in which Lopez starred opposite Ralph Fiennes, became the highest-grossing film of her career.[65][66] She starred as an abused wife seeking revenge in the thriller Enough.[67] Lopez suffered a nervous breakdown in 2001 while filming it.[68]

Lopez released two albums in 2002. The first was a remix album, J to tha L–O! The Remixes, featuring rappers Ja Rule, 50 Cent, Fat Joe and P Diddy. It debuted at number one on the Billboard 200,[69] with its lead single Ain't It Funny (Murder Remix)" reaching the top of the Billboard Hot 100.[70][59] Lopez's third studio album, This Is Me... Then, was released in late 2002. Despite having the highest opening sales of Lopez's career, the album charted at number six on the Billboard 200.[71] The album's lead single "Jenny from the Block", peaked at number three on the Billboard Hot 100 while its second single, "All I Have", reached number one. In 2002 business ventures, Lopez opened Madre's, a Los Angeles restaurant serving Latin cuisine,[72] and released her first fragrance, Glow by JLo. Lopez has since released over 18 fragrances as part of a licensing deal with Coty.[73]

Box-office failures and declining record sales (2003–2010)

Lopez arriving at the MTV Video Music Awards in 2004

Lopez became the subject of widespread media criticism in 2003 due to her public relationship with Affleck and the tabloid depiction of her as a demanding diva. Her perceived diva behavior and relationship with Affleck was parodied on South Park in the episode "Fat Butt and Pancake Head". The Guardian published an article exploring her "bilious" media coverage, positing that "indefensible" misogyny and racism were to blame for her position as "the most vilified woman in modern popular culture".[74] Lopez fired both her personal manager Benny Medina and her publicist in mid-2003; The New York Times reported that movie executives had become frustrated by having their communications with Lopez "largely filtered" through Medina.[75] She became the face of Louis Vuitton's fall–winter advertising campaign[76] and starred opposite Affleck in the romantic comedy Gigli (2003). The film was a box-office bomb and is considered one of the worst films of all time.[65][77][78]

Lopez had a minor role opposite Affleck in the film Jersey Girl (2004). Following test audiences' negative reactions to the onscreen couple, Lopez's screen time was halved.[79] Later in 2004, Lopez launched her second fashion label, Sweetface,[57][80] and starred opposite Richard Gere in the romantic comedy-drama Shall We Dance?, which was a box-office success.[65]

The marketing for the romantic comedy Monster-in-Law (2005), in which Lopez starred opposite Jane Fonda became a box office success.[81][65][82] She released her fourth studio album, Rebirth, in early 2005.[83]

The album reached number two on the Billboard 200 and its lead single "Get Right" charted at number twelve on the Billboard Hot 100, the second and final single "Hold You Down" peaked at number 64.[84] She returned the Billboard Hot 100 the following year, at number four, when she was a featured artist on "Control Myself", the lead single from LL Cool J's twelfth studio album.[85]

Lopez's next three movie projects were box office failures. She starred alongside Robert Redford and Morgan Freeman in the drama An Unfinished Life (2005). In 2006, she reunited with Gregory Nava, the director of both Mi Familia and Selena, to star in the crime drama Bordertown as a journalist investigating female homicides in Ciudad Juárez, Mexico.[86] The film was negatively reviewed and received a direct-to-video release.[65] In 2007, she starred opposite her then-husband Marc Anthony in the music biopic El Cantante, which told the story of Puerto Rican salsa singer Héctor Lavoe and his wife Puchi.[87] It is the first movie she produced.[88] El Cantante did not perform well at the overall box office.[65] The film received mixed reviews from film critics. Lopez received a Premios Juventud nomination for Best Actress for her performance.

Lopez in 2008

Lopez released two studio albums in 2007. Her fifth album, Como Ama una Mujer, was her first to be recorded entirely in Spanish.[89][90] It reached number 10 on the Billboard 200;[91] the lead single "Qué Hiciste" reached number 86 on the Billboard Hot 100 while the second single "Me Haces Falta" failed to chart. Lopez's sixth studio album Brave, released later that year, was her lowest-charting album worldwide.[92] The album debuted at number 12 on the Billboard 200[93] and produced two singles, "Do It Well" and "Hold It Don't Drop It". The first peaked at number 31 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, while the latter failed to chart. While pregnant with twins, Lopez embarked upon her first ever concert tour, a show co-headlined by Anthony, in September 2007.[94][95] She created, produced and was featured in the MTV show DanceLife.[96]

After giving birth to twins in February 2008, Lopez took a career break.[97] Her restaurant Madre's closed permanently,[72] as did her two fashion lines.[98] After rehiring former manager Medina,[99] Lopez released two songs in late 2009, "Louboutins" and "Fresh Out of the Oven". The songs were intended for her seventh studio album but failed to make an appearance on the Billboard charts, leading to her departure from Sony Music and Epic Records.[100] Lopez's first theatrical role in three years was in the romantic comedy The Back-up Plan (2010).[97]

American Idol and Vegas residency (2011–2018)

Lopez joined in 2011 the judging panel of the singing competition series American Idol.[101] She returned as a judge for the eleventh season, earning a reported $20 million,[102] and again for the thirteenth season, earning a reported $17.5 million.[103] She became a brand ambassador for L'Oréal,[104] Venus[105] and Fiat,[106] and launched the Jennifer Lopez Collection, a clothing and homeware line with Tommy Hilfiger for Kohl's.[107][108]

After signing a new recording contract with Island Records, Lopez's seventh studio album, Love?, was released in early 2011.[109][110] While the album itself was a moderate commercial success,[92] the single "On the Floor" was one of the year's most successful songs.[111] It reached number three on the Billboard Hot 100.[112] Lopez's greatest hits album, Dance Again... the Hits, was released in mid-2012[113] to fulfil contractual obligations with her former label Epic Records.[114] "Dance Again" reached number 17 on the US Billboard Hot 100. Lopez launched the Dance Again World Tour, her first headlining concert tour, in mid-2012.[115] It grossed over $1 million per show.[116] The same year she launched Teeology, a T-shirt brand.[117]

Lopez returned to the big screen in 2012, starring alongside an ensemble cast in the film What to Expect When You're Expecting, which is based on the novel of the same name.[118] Lopez voiced Shira, a saber tooth tiger, in the animated film, Ice Age: Continental Drift, the fourth film in the Ice Age franchise.[119][120] In 2012 a talent show called ¡Q'Viva! The Chosen[121] followed Lopez, Anthony, and director-choreographer Jamie King as they travelled across Latin America to find new talent for a Las Vegas show. In 2013, Lopez participated alongside Jason Statham in the crime thriller Parker, in which she played Leslie. Her performance earned positive reviews.

Lopez's eighth studio album, A.K.A., was released in mid-2014 through Capitol Records, experiencing lacklustre sales.[129][130] The album produced three singles: "I Luh Ya Papi", featuring French Montana, "First Love", and "Booty", featuring Iggy Azalea. They reached 77, 87 and 18 respectively on the Billboard Hot 100. The same year Lopez released "We Are One (Ole Ola)", the official song for the 2014 FIFA World Cup along with Pitbull and Claudia Leitte. Lopez partnered with Endless Jewelry on a range of jewelry[131] and released a book, True Love, which became a New York Times best-seller.[132]

2015 saw the release of The Boy Next Door, an erotic thriller that Lopez both co-produced and starred in as a high school teacher who becomes involved with a student, which eventually leads to his dangerous obsession with her.[133] The film received negative reviews from critics.[134] Lopez had a voice role in the animated feature Home[135] and contributed the single "Feel the Light" to the film's official soundtrack.[136] Lopez starred in the independent drama film Lila & Eve, alongside Viola Davis.[137]

From 2016 to 2018, Lopez had a residency concert show, All I Have, at Planet Hollywood's Zappos Theater in Las Vegas.[138][139] She performed 120 shows during the three-year run, grossing over $100 million in ticket sales.[140][141] At the beginning of the residency, Lopez signed a multi-album deal with her former label Epic Records[142] but, instead of an album, she opted to release standalone singles including "Ain't Your Mama",[143][144][145] "Ni Tú Ni Yo",[146][147]"Amor, Amor, Amor",[148] "El Anillo"[149] and "Dinero", featuring DJ Khaled and Cardi B.[150] The highest charting of these were "Ain't Your Mama" and "Dinero", reaching 76 and 80 respectively on the Billboard Hot 100, while the former's music video received over 800 million views on YouTube.[151] In collaboration with Giuseppe Zanotti, Lopez designed a capsule collection of shoes and jewelry[152] and, with Inglot Cosmetics, launched a limited-edition makeup collection.[153]

Following the September 11 attacks, Lopez was heavily involved in charitable activities. Joining various other artists, she was featured on charitable singles such as "What's Going On" and "El Ultimo Adios (The Last Goodbye)", which benefited people affected by the tragedy.[248][249] One dollar from each ticket sold at Lopez and Anthony's co-headlining North American concert tour, which grossed an estimated $10 million, was donated to Run for Something Better—a charitable organization supporting physical fitness programs for children.[95][250] In February 2007, Lopez was honored with the Artists for Amnesty prize by the human rights organization Amnesty International, for her work in the film Bordertown, which shed light on the hundreds of feminicides in Ciudad Juárez.[251][252]

In 2009 she launched the Lopez Family Foundation (originally known as the Maribel Foundation) alongside her sister, Lynda. The nonprofit organization seeks to increase the availability of healthcare for underprivileged women and children, offering a telemedicine program supported by a partnership with the Children's Hospital Los Angeles. The foundation has led to the expansion of medical facilities in Panama and Puerto Rico, and created the Center for a Healthy Childhood at the Montefiore Medical Center in the Bronx.[253][254]

In December 2012, Lopez held a charity drive that would affect her three favorite charities: the Gloria Wise Boys and Girls Club, the Children's Hospital of Los Angeles as well as the American Red Cross, mainly benefiting victims of Hurricane Sandy, which devastated parts of her hometown, New York City.[255] In May 2015, she became the first national celebrity spokesperson for the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals and the BC Children's Hospital Foundation (BCCHF), appearing in a campaign entitled "Put Your Money Where the Miracles Are".[256] That September, Lopez was announced as the first Global Advocate for Girls and Women at the United Nations Foundation.[257] [258] In September 2017, following Hurricane Irma and Hurricane Maria, Lopez announced that she would be donating $1 million from the proceeds of her Las Vegas residency to humanitarian aid for Puerto Rico.[259][260] Along with ex-husband Marc Anthony, she launched a humanitarian relief campaign entitled Somos Una Voz (English: We Are One Voice), an effort supported by various celebrities to rush supplies to areas affected by Hurricane Maria.[261] Lopez and Anthony presented a subsequent concert and telethon for disaster relief, "One Voice: Somos Live!", which raised over $35 million.[262] She was also among various artists featured on Lin-Manuel Miranda's charity single "Almost Like Praying" which benefits Puerto Rico.[263]

In September 2021, she launched a new partnership called Limitless Labs that will support and empower Latina entrepreneurs and business owners.[264] In June 2022, Lopez partnered with Nonprofit Grameen America to financially empower women-led Latina Businesses.[265][266]

Lopez has performed at charity concerts throughout her career. In 2022, Lopez headlined the Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation's star-studded 6th Annual Blue Diamond Gala. The event raised a record-breaking $3.6 million to support LADF in their mission to improve education, health care, homelessness, and social justice for all Angelenos.[267]

Political views

Lopez is a supporter of the Democratic Party, and has a long history of backing Democratic candidates for public office.[268] Lopez is also an avid supporter of LGBT rights, and has raised millions of dollars for HIV/AIDS research.[269] In June 2013, amfAR presented Lopez with its humanitarian award for her philanthropic work.[269] That September, she was awarded the Ally for Equality award presented by the Human Rights Campaign, for her support of the LGBT community.[270] The following year, she received the GLAAD Vanguard Award.[271] In July 2016, Lopez released a single entitled "Love Make the World Go Round" which benefits victims of the Orlando nightclub shooting.[272] She was featured on the song "Hands" along with numerous other artists, benefiting those affected by the Orlando shooting.[273] Among numerous other artists, Lopez signed an open letter from Billboard magazine to the United States Congress in 2016, which demanded action on gun control.[274]

Lopez endorsed President Barack Obama in his 2012 presidential campaign, speaking in television advertisements and attending a fundraising event for Obama in Paris.[275][276] She endorsed Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton in 2016, headlining a free concert in Florida in support of her that October.[276][277] In June 2020, Lopez attended a Black Lives Matter movement protest in Los Angeles, in connection with the broader George Floyd protests.[278] Lopez has been an active advocate for the Time's Up movement.[279] She endorsed President Joe Biden in his 2020 presidential campaign and performed at his 2021 inauguration in Washington, D.C.[280][281] In January 2022, she became one of the Co-Chairs for Michelle Obama’s When We All Vote.[282]

Artistry

Influences and musical style

Lopez cited Madonna as her "first big musical influence"

Lopez has cited Madonna as her "first big musical influence", explaining "It was all about Madonna for me. She inspired me to want to sing, to dance, to work hard."[283][284] Other "big influences in [her] life" include Tina Turner, Whitney Houston, James Brown, and Michael Jackson.[285][286] Growing up, she was influenced by Latin music styles ranging from salsa to bachata, and artists including Celia Cruz and Tito Puente. It was the 1979 hip hop song "Rapper's Delight" by The Sugarhill Gang that she said changed her life.[287] She was also "hugely inspired in her youth" by Rita Moreno's performance in the 1961 musical film West Side Story,[288] noting that she "was Puerto Rican" like herself at a time when that was rare in Hollywood.[174] Speaking of musicals being an essential influence, she has said that, "musicals were a part of the tapestry of my childhood".[289][290] Another major influence on Lopez is Barbra Streisand, stating that, "watching her career over the years, watching her sing and act and direct, was very inspiring to me."[174] Lopez has cited Janet Jackson as a major inspiration for her own dance and videos, stating that she "probably started dancing" because of Jackson's music video for "The Pleasure Principle".[291][292] She has said that she also looks to the careers of Cher and Diana Ross,[293] and has been influenced by younger artists such as Lady Gaga.[291][294]According to author Ed Morales in The Latin Beat: The Rhythms And Roots Of Latin Music From Bossa Nova To Salsa And Beyond (2003), Lopez's music explores the "romantic innocence" of Latin music, while strongly identifying with hip hop.[297] Her debut album On the 6 fuses the influence of Latin music with R&B and hip hop, which Lopez described as Latin soul. To the contrary, Morales described it as "state-of-the-art dance pop".[288] Dee Lockett, writing for the Chicago Tribune, stated that songs such as "Waiting for Tonight" made Lopez "arguably the leading artist in the dance-pop movement at the time".[298] While primarily sung in English, she speaks in Spanish and asserts her Latin heritage throughout the album, which is apparent in the song "Let's Get Loud".[299][300][301] She has also recorded bilingual songs, including the Latin pop song "Cariño", for her second album J.Lo.[302] A departure from her previous albums, This Is Me... Then blends 1970s soul with "streetwise" hip hop.[303]

Described as autobiographical,[304] much of Lopez's music has centered around the "ups and downs" of love.[305] The lyrical content of This Is Me... Then is largely focused on her relationship with Ben Affleck, with the song "Dear Ben" being described as the album's "glowing centerpiece". Her first full-length Spanish-language album, Como Ama una Mujer features introspective lyrics about romance, heartache and self-loathing.[306] When explaining her seventh studio album Love?, Lopez stated: "There's still so much to learn and that's why the question mark."[305] Other recurrent themes in Lopez's music have included her upbringing in the Bronx[288][307] and women's empowerment.[308]

Some critics have considered Lopez's voice to be limited,[309][310] and overshadowed by the production of her music, while remaining "radio-friendly".[311] Rob Sheffield of Rolling Stone remarked: "Instead of strained vocal pyrotechnics, Lopez sticks to the understated R&B murmur of a round-the-way superstar who doesn't need to belt because she knows you're already paying attention ... She makes a little va-va and a whole lot of voom go a long way."[312] Meanwhile, AllMusic's Stephen Thomas Erlewine called her voice "slight" and wrote: "Lopez was never, ever about singing; she was about style".[313] Entertainment Weekly criticized her vocal performance for lacking the trademark "husky-voiced voluptuousness" she has in her films.[314] J. D. Considine of The Baltimore Sun regards Lopez as having a "breathy" stylistic range, but lacking personality.[315]

Dance and stage

Considered one of dance's "greatest success stories",[159] Refinery29 ranked Lopez at number two on "11 Of Pop's Most Iconic Dancers" in 2015.[316] Lopez specialized in ballet, jazz and flamenco.[317][318] Her career commenced on the variety television sketch comedy series In Living Color, where she was a part of an ethnically diverse dance group known as the Fly Girls.[319] Since beginning her music career, Lopez has become known for her body-emphasizing music videos, which often include dance routines.[320] CNN's Holly Thomas noted that "Lopez's years of professional dance experience gave her a captivating, commanding presence in her videos."[321] Some of these videos have been the subject of controversy, including "Jenny from the Block", "Dance Again" and "Booty".[322][323] Her provocatively choreographed music video for "If You Had My Love" allowed Lopez to become a dominant figure on MTV networks worldwide.[324] Madeline Roth of MTV wrote: "Her diverse videography encompasses some of the most memorable visuals of the 21st century",[325] with Rolling Stone writer Brittany Spanos observing that her "dancing skills and ability to toy with her own celebrity have made her videos an important part of the new millennium's pop canon".[326]

Author Priscilla Peña Ovalle stated in Dance and the Hollywood Latina: Race, Sex and Stardom (2011) that Lopez was one of the Latin stars who "used dance to gain agency as working performers with mainstream careers, yet many of their roles paradoxically racialized and sexualized their bodies".[327] Troy Patterson of Entertainment Weekly also observed that she used her body for emphasis on stage, "She turned herself out as the fly girl hyperversion of postfeminist power, flaunting her control by toying with the threat of excess. In consequence, her star went supernova."[328] Her signature movements include "clock-wise pivoting with salsa hip circles and sequential torso undulations".[329] While being noted to lip sync in the early stages of career, Lopez's Dance Again World Tour was praised for showcasing live vocals and choreography synchronously.[330][331] In a review of her Las Vegas residency All I Have, Los Angeles Times writer Nolan Feeney remarked that her dancing is "undoubtedly the centerpiece of the show".[332]

Public image

Writing of Lopez's image, Andrew Barker of Variety observed: "Despite a carefully cultivated image as an imperious pop empress in ludicrously expensive outfits, her signature hits bear the titles 'I'm Real' and 'Jenny From the Block'. She managed the perilous transition from actress to music star without ever seeming to pick either as a primary gig. She established herself as an oft-provocative sex symbol while her demeanor made it abundantly clear that she's not asking you to come hither."[296] In 2002, Lynette Holloway of The New York Times described Lopez as overexposed. She wrote: "Forgive yourself if you are seeing Jennifer Lopez in your sleep. She is everywhere." Holloway noted her image to be "a dash of ghetto fabulousness" and "middle-class respectability" for mass appeal.[333] Entertainment Weekly observed a change in her public profile upon joining American Idol in 2011, writing: "Gone was her old cut-a-bitch swagger; J. Lo 2.0 is an all-embracing, Oprahfied earth madre."[334] Television presenter Ray Martin describes her as a "showbiz phenomenon".[335]

She has been credited with influencing a change in mainstream female body image.[336] In Latin Sensations (2001), Herón Marquez wrote: "Because she wasn't rail thin, Lopez had broken the mold and allowed millions of women to feel good about their bodies. Suddenly, it was okay for women to have hips, curves, and a big backside."[337] Vanity Fair described her buttocks as "in and of themselves, a cultural icon".[338] Details magazine named Lopez the "Sexiest Woman of the Year" in 1998,[339] and she topped FHM's "100 Sexiest Women in the World" list twice.[340] In 2011, she was named "The Most Beautiful Woman" by People.[341] The following year, VH1 ranked her the fourth on their list of "100 Sexiest Artists",[342] while Vibe magazine named her the most "lustable" celebrity of the past twenty years.[343]

Lopez has been a tabloid fixture[344][345] and has admitted to having a "less-than-perfect" public image.[346] The media has drawn comparisons between Lopez and actress Elizabeth Taylor, due to her numerous failed relationships,[347] and Lopez has been dubbed a "modern-day Liz Taylor" by the media.[348][349] Lynn Hirschberg of W compared her glamorous public persona to that of Taylor.[350] Her style was described by Billboard's Lauren Savage as "scantily clad".[351]

In 2003, The Observer remarked that Lopez was "the woman immortalised in a million headlines as 'Hollywood's most demanding diva' ... Lopez must wonder what heinous crime she has committed to become the most vilified woman in modern popular culture."[352]

Legacy and cultural impact

Lopez is regarded as the most influential Latin entertainer of all time, credited with breaking ethnic barriers in the entertainment industry.[16][353][354] In 1999, The Record newspaper observed that she was responsible for the introduction of a Latina presence in the film industry, which was a "whites-only preserve" for much of its history.[355] Described as a "multidimensional artist who had turned into a financial powerhouse",[356] Lopez became the highest-paid actress of Hispanic descent.[357] Miriam Jiménez Román stated in The Afro-Latin Reader: History and Culture in the United States (2009) that "[she] was able to traverse the difficult racial boundaries".[358]

Upon launching her music career in the late 1990s, Lopez contributed to the "Latin explosion" occurring in entertainment at the time.[359] Writing for The Recording Academy, Brian Haack described her as the "breakout female star" of the Latin pop movement in American music.[360] She was featured on the cover of the first issue of Latina magazine in 1996, with editor Galina Espinoza stating in 2011 that there is "no recounting of modern Latina history without Jennifer".[361] Around the time her career began to burgeon, the emphasis on Lopez's curvaceous figure grew; scholar Sean Redmond wrote that this was a sign of her role and social power in the cultural changes occurring in the United States.[362] In August 2005, Time listed Lopez as one of the most influential Hispanics in America, remarking: "Why? Because over a decade ago, she was an anonymous background dancer on the second-rated sketch-comedy show. Today she's known by two syllables."[57] In February 2007, People en Español named her the most influential Hispanic entertainer.[353] In 2014, scientists named a species of aquatic mite found in Puerto Rico, Litarachna lopezae, after Lopez.[363][364]

VH1 ranked her at number 15 on their list of 200 Greatest Pop Culture Icons,[365] number 16 on 100 Greatest Women In Music,[366] and number 21 on 50 Greatest Women of the Video Era.[367] Lopez has been cited as an influence or inspiration by a range of entertainers, including Jessica Alba,[368] Adrienne Bailon,[369] Kat DeLuna,[370] Mike Doughty,[371] Fifth Harmony,[372] Becky G,[373] Selena Gomez,[374] Demi Lovato,[375] Pitbull,[376] Gwen Stefani,[377] Taylor Swift,[378][379] next to several others.

In 2019, the Council of Fashion Designers of America presented her with its Fashion Icon Award for her "long-standing and global impact on fashion".[380] The Green Versace "Jungle Dress" that Lopez wore at the 42nd Annual Grammy Awards in 2000 was voted the fifth most iconic red carpet dress of all time in a poll run by The Daily Telegraph.[381] Her style has influenced a range of celebrities, including Kelly Rowland, Kim Kardashian, and Jennifer Love Hewitt.[382][383][384] Her first fragrance, Glow by JLo, has been credited with influencing the rise of celebrity fragrances in the 2000s,[385][386] with perfume critic Chandler Burr stating: "Elizabeth Taylor was one of the first [to have her own scent], but Glow kicked the whole thing into overdrive."[387]
