    More BENNY MEDINA smoke n mirrors; live sounding track and more corny line dancing WHILE TRYING TO STEAL FROM BEYONCE. No TALENT jlo; If SELENA were still alive, Jlo would still be a backup dancer. For Janet

    • Byejay April 8, 2016

      Idk if she’s stealing from beyonce BUT beyonce old music/creativedirector Kim burse for over 15yrs is now her music director LOLOLOLLLLL

      • Arx April 8, 2016

        Theres a line in the song about “we used to be crazy in love”. Every time she “sings” that line it makes me believe this song is a Beyonce reject.

    • Rihboy April 8, 2016

      Beyoncé actually takes from her!!! That’s the tea that’s been spilling over. Beyoncé takes from everybody. I don’t know who she took formation from though that was garbage. The media was proven stolen.

    • Christobal April 8, 2016

      And how many times has Bey stolen from JLo or every other artist for that matter? Don’t get me wrong I love me some Bey and when she’s “inspired” she makes it 10 times better. But her look and blueprint for the beginning of her career was taking straight out of the JLo handbook. And honey JLo had a music contract before Selena.

      • monarc087 April 8, 2016

        Show me the receipts???? Jlo was a backup dancer for janet jackson when Selena was cashing checks. Jennifer Lopez is the Spanish Britnety Spears with NOT an ounce of Talent. Wit her old as_s

      • Rihboy April 8, 2016

        Not an ounce of talent? For one she definitely acts better than Beyoncé!!! Lol.

      • Arx April 8, 2016

        Not an once of talent? For three she sings and dances and acts better than Rihanna.

  2. ???Chile, take this “Itty Bitty Piggy” to the market and make sure you hold her hand while crossing the street!??? April 7, 2016

    Her “I Luh Ya, Papi” performance on ‘American Idol’ was everything. I love how she sang live for about five seconds in the beginning.

  3. Stephon Jackson April 7, 2016

    That’s a beautiful picture of Miss Hopez

  4. CICI LOVER April 7, 2016

    she is so talented and that was totally live, she slays the stage like always

  5. Weezy Tha Goat/Zayn Is ? April 7, 2016

    Bye b****!! It’s just gonna flop, JHO hasn’t had a hit since 2005. B**** is a certified flop, slept her way to the top only to stay at the top for 5-6 years ?

    • Faf April 7, 2016

      On the floor is like 30x platinum

    • DANCE April 8, 2016

      Get your facts straight! “On The Floor” was the 2nd highest selling single on the world charts for 2011 by a female artist after Adele’s “Rolling in the Deep.” That year Katy, Rihana, Niki, Britney, Beyonce, and Gaga all released singles…. Just saying. Don’t hate on the woman’s hustle

  6. ♊Mølly♊ April 7, 2016

    Shes hotter than beyflopfatfuckyonce

    • Beystan_Since 1997 April 8, 2016

      Beyonce & J.lo are both hotter than you… Your seat awaits your arrival!

  7. Keisha April 7, 2016

    One thing about jlo is that she delivers which is good. However, I think she knows her music and know she ain’t gettin no Grammy lol.
    But I like that she doesn’t over do it she knows her lane and stays there. Go jlo.

  8. Metzo April 7, 2016

    Slayed it

  9. J Low April 7, 2016

    J No Talent aka J Heaux

  10. Tran anti no bloper honey love time but it okay girl April 7, 2016

    Amazing

  11. PAPERS April 8, 2016

    No doubt one of the best performers of our generation <3 Queen <3

  12. Annalise April 8, 2016

    It’s so cute that she always has Casper dancing by her side. Suga Mamas usually don’t employ their boytoys to work for them. At least he’s earning that allowance hunnie!!!!

  13. Quinn April 8, 2016

    Didn’t care for that performance at all.

  14. Dance April 8, 2016

    She always slays the stage! The most consistent and hard working girl in showbiz! Get it mama!

  15. IloveD April 8, 2016

    Her performances is too Beyonce for me , I thought she was great cos she’s one of the very few who can perform and put on a show but it’s very similar to Beyonce

    • Christobal April 8, 2016

      Too Beyonce? That’s like me saying her Elle shoot was too JLo for me…. The hive is delusional! Bey could do that salsa, jumps, and flips? Haha!

  17. Room319 April 8, 2016

    Say what you want…. Some b****** are not meant to be backup. I could care less if it’s live or not… You couldn’t take your eyes off of her. Always entertained.

  18. Queen April 8, 2016

    Mama killed it as always! I need to see her in Vegas! I never understood why the beyhive always attacks JLo. They are very similar performers and seem to take notes from eachother. One happens to be a little more successful in film and a better actress and one more successful in music and a better voice. But to me their brands are very similar and always pay compliments to eachother.

  19. RNavy?JLover April 8, 2016

    I like the song, I loved the let’s get loud performance, but wasn’t crazy about the ain’t your mama performance. B**** can do so much more than that choreography they gave her. I wish she would collaborate with Rihanna, or have Riri’s A&R pick her songs cuz she clearly loves Riri’s songs and they got mad love for eachother. Her doing BBHMM at the AMAs was FIRE!

  20. james April 8, 2016

    Hahahhaha dead at some ppl comparing her to bey . Sorry but she kills it more than bey . She is the queen

  21. Everyone’s A Critic April 8, 2016

    Dunno why Beyonce is in everyone’s mouth. J Lo looked and sounded great. It weren’t finale worthy but it was decent. Can’t fault it

  22. F April 8, 2016

    Damn, hope she does another world tour so I can catch this spectacle, though her last good album was Rebirth

  23. monarc087 April 8, 2016

    Did one of these lunatic G_ays just say Jennifer Lopez is more talented than Beyonce????

    On what Planet is Jennifer lopez more talented than Beyonce? NOt on this earth.

    Jennifer Lopez is a grand manipulator and lacks vocal talent. She basically is a dancer.

  24. Royalkev April 8, 2016

    Damn, it’s so easy to forget that Jenny is 40+! She never reminds me of her age (especially when she performs)! I guess when you got it, you just got it! This girl never rest on her laurels. She’s an older act that really can keep up with all those girls in their 20’s!

  25. Nonotme April 8, 2016

    She might not be the best dancer, singer, or actress. I’ve never seen her claim she was, however no one can deny her tenacity, work ethic, beauty and performance skills are off the charts. She has that it factor because let’s be honest if she didn’t we wouldn’t be talking about her in 2016. And that ain’t your mama song is catchy!

  26. MusicFan103 April 8, 2016

    To say Jennifer Lopez does NOT kill the stage when she steps on it, is insane. I was there when she taped the live performance and she killed it then and it was even cooler seeing up close on TV (closer). She really is one of the best performers when it comes to entertaining people on a stage live, indeed. All the hate from BeyHive. . . you know what, instead of hating why not hope one day they are on a stage together and killing it together!
