It’s finally here! The video for Jennifer Lopez‘s latest single ‘Papi’ premiered moments ago! As ever, we got that good good for you first.
What are you waiting for? Check it out below!
In an era dominated by ‘generic’, Lopez and director Paul Hunter get kudos for not dabbling with the expected treatment (see: club). What’s more, the incorporation of the MTV-heyday dance break was a great touch too.
Unfortunately that’s where the ‘good’ starts and stops. At least for the most part.
Echoing earlier sentiments; between the shameless Fiat plugs, odd-cam angles, and lack of ample choreography, the clip seems confused as to whether it wants to be a commercial, mini-movie, or music video. And, as with all output that tries to do too much, it does nothing particularly well.
With her ‘LOVE?’ LP having only sold 257,000 copies Stateside to date, Ms. Lopez needed this to be a slam-dunk. However, she’ll need a miracle of Biblical proportions if this is to resuscitate the album. Missed opportunity.

{Randomness: Has anyone else noticed how uneventful her choreo has been since her ‘comeback’? Just like the ‘On The Floor’ video, Jenny teases with the dance moves like she’s about to go in, builds one up, only for…nothing. Well at least not much.}

its allot like a commercial and all her other videos have been very ethnic and seductive but this ones allot like a commercial like for her newest perfume or something its okay!
– Yurges
This video gets a big wtf
I don’t see commercial you probably just saw it in that Car ad Now you think its a commercial! O like it I don’t love it Its Diff But papi is just so HOT it needed a better vid IMO
can i just say she’s looking freshfaced and as youthful as ever
back to video
i looooove this video; the concept, her acting, “real” men dancing, the budget, comic moments, besides her wardrobe…this is a n easy 8/10.
thanks JLo 🙂
Flop. Flop
i wish they would’ve gone more ike the I’m Into You dance break,
but this is great too
That was SOOOOOOO epic!!!A real mini-movie like it’s supposed to be!!She delivered definetely!!I really didn’t expect it, but this video was amazing!!!Everything is perfect from the choreo to the tricks to the stunts to the acting, everything!!WOW!I am more than impressed!
F’in LOVE THIS!
they are planning a making a sequel to this video right? that wasnt just poor editing at the end of the video lol
cute. Funny. Anything but a video in the club
Laughing my b*** off!!!! definitely fun, energetic, and cute!!! we need more videos like this, that show a good time and lightens the mood!
the dancing was awesome too
@BEY’KNIGHT I don’t think there will be a sequel tbh.It was just the narration of a bizzare day, I guess and the policeman that took her away from the stalkers was the end of the day.Still epic, though 😀 But they could make a sequel, you never know, I just don’t think it’s that possible…
F’in funny and great video. LOVE it.
yeahhhh NOT WORKING lol
That wasn’t a cop. That was her boyfriend, lol. She was missing him at the beginning of the video and he came home and “rescued” her at the end.
I’m sorry but this song is pure garbage to my ears. It will most definitely not get me to buy her album or single. Some parts in the video was funny… however I had a few “is this all necessary?” moments during what seems to be a long ass commercial for a freakish cookie.
BEST VIDEO EVER!!
YOU GO JLO
@Sam
1)This is a mini-movie and it slays and I’m not even a J Lo stan (hardly a fan either)d, but everything is amazing in the clip.
2)’Love?’ has had no promo and almost 300k for 1 performance and 2 singles is solid.
3)I have noticed that her choreos have been rather lacklustre, but at the same time I remember your blog praising ‘On The Floor’ and ‘I’m Into You’ saying that she is one of the few that can still do her moves and that she delivered.What changed??
Anyway, to respond to the question, the drum pattern on ‘OTF’ did not help her pull off real choreo and ‘I’m Into You’ had a different video concept and the dancing she did with the borrowed ‘Papi’ beat was out of place in that video too.I cannot blame her for this video either because the choreo had to be simple for all those everyday people (non-professionals) to follow it.Her tricks and her flexibility showed and her technique was amazing.
LOVE? IS NOW @ 914 000 around the world 😉 .
are u crazy?! The video is AMAZING! It’s fresh, energetic, Jennifer is GORGEOUS, the song is FIRE, high budget, FIERCE DANCING . . . the list goes on and on! EPIC! JUST EPIC!!!!!
*over 250k (instead of “almost 300k”)
Some people just don’t give up, I mean hasn’t she realised by now that she SUCKS? As for her record label they must really hate making money or else they would have sent her packing ages ago
LOL !!
I love It !! <3
I dont like it. She is as good an actress as Beyonce.
@ASAP
(how are ya?) i reckoned there’d be a sequel cus towards the end, her handbag dropped and one of the admires picked it up after her man scooped her away, the camera actually focused on the bag-drop so i dunno, it didnt exactly end on a cliffhanger note either so …..
Big missed opp! Love Jlo, but this video is crap :'(
It’s a nice video to me.
@VUYOZUCCH,
there r plenty who love to suck, suck azzes, just suck suck suck. Many r sucking up to this mediocrity.
Unfortunately this world we live in is that sad. No wonder the whole world is in crisis. Sucks up r running rampant. Suck in, lol.
I mean look @ that look on JLo’s face up there . . . L O L
I like the fact she did not go for an over the top club/slutty video concept, this is like a rom com mini musical , totally different from the other videos
This get a 10/10 from me
This video is actually so funny….Sam doesn’t know what he’s talking about, he chats so much doo doo sometimes….he needs 2 give up with adding his opinions 2 his posts, coz he doesn’t know anything
i hate the song. i hate the outfit. What was all the destruction about? I don’t understand it. but ok video go jlo
VIDEO IS FLAWLESS JENNIFER LOPEZ YOU ARE A BEAUTIFUL PUERTO RICAN DIVA!
Choreography IS GREAT! Would love to see the editor of this article dance like this! HATER! God Bless You Mamita!
This video is one of the best I seen to end the year off..I love J.LO <3
Amazing video. Great production, great everything !
@BEY’KNIGHT I’m cool, how have you been doing?Back on topic, I saw the handbag but I didn’t notice that someone picked it up…Hmm…there may be a sequel then.It’s quite possible.I hope that ‘Papi’ becomes a hit so that we will get a 4th single from ‘Love?’ 😎
Love it 🙂
it’s different, it’s great, it’s JLO
EPIC VIDEO!!HATERS GONNE HATE!people are just pissed their “fave” didnt do this concept first!!!
haha bow down to the queen jlo! and btw this is what dancing is supposed to be like..a fly girl would know beter than beyawnce and caca who shake thei asses to the bit pretending they dancing!!!smh!!
This site doesnt know what a “comeback” is. That video was AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the dancing was so fun to watch and the concept was perfect! TGJ knows nothing about real music or videos or what a comeback really is. Sam you must be blind as a bat to call this a missed opportunity im so done with this site.
OMFG THIS VIDEO IS EPIC BEST VIDEO OF THE YEAR SO FAR
JENNIFER YOU HAVE SLAYED YOU HAVE NOTHING TO PROVE JUST LOOK AROUND THE NET THE FEEDBACK FOR THIS VIDEO IS OUTSTANDING YOU DID IT GIRL YOU SLAYED
SAM DEAD @ HER SELLING JUST UNDER 300K IN THE US? SO WHAT US = NOT THE WHOLE WORLD DIDNT YOU FAVE KELLY FLOPLAND SELL EVEN LESS AND B**** HAS DONE MORE PROMO THEN JENNY LO
HATERS ARE GONNA TRY AND HATE BUT JENNIFER HAS SOLD OVER 10 MILLION RECORDS THIS ERA ALONE
ON THE FLOOR 7.5 MILLION
LOVE? SHIPPED 1 MILLION
IM INTO YOU 1 MILLION
AND PAPI AINT EVEN STARTED YET DONT EVEN LOOK AT HER SALES COS SHE IS DOING FINE AND PAPI IS GONNA SNATCH WEAVES YOUR FAVE COULD NEVER
what can i say for this video just EPIC
AND F*** YOU BEYONCES FANS TAKE CARE FOR YOU QUEEN FLOP
@ASAP
we’ll watch this space lol, well i think it has a better chance than IIY ever had to become a hit so we’ll see. id love for her to release “what is love” i know it’s old but i absolutely adore that track
@Killa Tila
and yet somehow Beyonce got a moonman for best choreo in 2009, Gaga in 2010, Beyonce again in 2011, when was the last time Jlo got an accolade for her “fly girl” dancing? you sound like an childish fool really cus this video hardly showcases Jlo’s dancing skills
omg why are Beyonce fans being cussed out? do you guys ever take a break?
love it! jennifer lopez you rock !!!!!!
is Beyonce the only woman in the industry, why dint anyone mention Britney, Rihanna, Katy Perry, Gaga, Ciara geez leave the woman alone, if she’s overexposed you are the reason .
LMAO THIS VIDEO IS SO FUNNY AND COOL, LUV IT. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK JLO. THATS THE WAY I FEEL WHEN I GET DRESSED UP EVERYONE CHASING ME….LMAO
brilliant choreography!!!!!!very strong cookie ah!!!!!the background dancers have really utilised the space and pace of the song is well maintained
I suspect this happens to j.lo everyday, with or without eating the lurvvvv cookie.
Song and video suck.
@BEY’KNIGHT Well, I love this track too and I think that she needs a non-pop track because the pop market is too immature to support her singlehandedly.’Run The World’ cannot be released for obvious reasons and I think ‘What Is Love?’ is a bit weak for radio, so I would narrow it down to’Starting Over’ or ‘Until It Beats No More’.They could work for her.Well, anyway, it’s all about ‘Papi’ now and I’m hoping it will get some good adds on September 27th 😎
J Lo is the bomb she is Jenny From The Block!!!!!!!
i love this video…hate the song, but the video makes the song tolerable. have any of you guys seen the movie “when in rome”? this is essentially the same concept just hyped up! (oh yeah and with a cookie instead of a coin lol)
THIS WAS VERY YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY COMICAL!!!!!!!!!!!11
LMAO
THIS S*** LOOKED LIKE IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE IN A COMEDY MOVIE OR SUMIN
OR FOR HER TO BE NOMINATED AS BEST FEMALE ALONG SIDE BEY, ADELE, LADY GAGGA AND KATY PERYY
LOL
A mess,the thiefa latina is lost.karma is slaying her,stealing my girl songs is getting her nowhere 😆
joke aside,it was cute and she still a good dancer;cant stand her outfir but the concept was great
The video is over the top and entertaining :).
LOL @ Jlo and her granny booty and granny shorts.
bunch of r***** always hating on every artist they see unless its there favor ….coz u dont like it doesn’t mean it sucks ….not every one have same test ….
This video actually made me like the song. She looks beautiful 🙂
Get Em Jenny! This video is fresh and different! This can now go on my best video list, that includes another one of JLO’s videos – I’m Glad…definitely ground breaking..reminds me of a broadway performance!
after watching the video, i’m shocked. i read the comments before i saw it so i expected it to be a complete flop, total mess, but then i watched it & i really liked it, i thought it was funny, engaging, totally different not only to j.lo’s other videos but to all music videos that are out right now, i can’t see the song making a big impact on the love? album sales but i don’t think any video or single from the album would have much impact, if a huge hit like on the floor couldn’t move albums then singles 3 and 4 rant going to do anything, but all in all i think the video is a hit, well done ms. lopez
the vide is great not expected from the teasers , i love the video now in full , like a mini romantic comedy love it
This vid is E P I C !!
I love her
ON THE FLOOR IS AMAZING
LOVE? is amazing
I’m INTO YOU IS AMAZING
she’s that b**** !
Never underestimate J LO !
F*** YOU SAM ! Your ass is hypocrite and shady as ever !
i actually found it very entertaining! love it! 🙂
I also thought it looked like a commercial and I didn’t like the surprised faces and the choreo with her controling the men and then the men moving her up and down like that… weiird !! and it reminded me of Brityney’s I wanna go video….
@BLAKE But 95% of the comments were positive ❓
@BLAKE Are you talking about Sam’s review or the comment section??
i bet this video will get her in more movies watch
She danced better while pregnant when the Brave album was out. I do honesty thinjk she is DIVA with an attitude and does not give a flying f*** about what her fands want from her. She could care less about the quality of anything she does just as long as she stays rich ole f***** b****.
I think you are being way too harsh! The song is catchy. The video was fun – definitely made me smile and laugh a few times. J.Lo looked great and brought out the dance break. And, like you, I appreciate that it wasn’t set in a club. Very entertaining. I say good job!!
parts of this was used for the car commercial and the whole thing was bad in my opinion, i wish she would of gave something like on the floor, even im into you was better than this.
best songs in order
hypnotico
papi
on the floor
invading my mind
im into you
what is love
@GFORCE12,
when was she in a club?
wow! breath of fresh air!
Something reminds me of Mariah’s “Obsessed” video…
Well, apart from her clothes and some of her strange facial expressions I liked it… 🙂
really good and original
good point to JLO !!
Jennifer has lost the one thing she had going for her… dancing, It’s awful. She looks like Britney. Not to play Brit out, but the chile can’t dance at this point in her career. All that leaning and arm flailing? No ma’am!
I will say the video was funny, My lil nephews were cracking up looking at the men jump from buildings n bridges and asking me is she a superwoman or whatever she says in the song LOL I thought that was funny as well.
loveeeeee it
so original & funny
great acting
great choreography
great concept

ABSOULETLY LOVED IT !!!
JENNIFER LOPEZ ALL THE WAY BABY! !!
true, not a lot of choreography here. but otherwise the clip is well done.
J.Lo is J.Lo, haters stay mad, Sam you are a litlle b**** always praising only Beyonce.
Ok We know girl has no talent. You all know what i think about her (only Britney or Rihanna are on the same low level) but she looks fabulous (she´s 41) and video is nice, different in a way
Nice video I guess but overall it just looks like a 5 minute commercial or a movie trailer fo one of her old movies like Maid in Manhattan or what not!
what a woman
well..I LOVE IT! it’s really cute. 🙂
OMFG I was not expecting this at all…from the teases I was expecting a low budget cute vid,but I got a big budget masterpiece well it was amazing to mee.I could not stop smiling it was so funny. way to go jenny lo! and sam gur have a confused seat at the counselors office.
@beyknight and ASAP
That was not her bag that dropped,that was a bag that one of the guys stole to give her as a gift,and when her “papi” came he dropped it as if to say what’s the use.but she did say she wanted to make two videos or a video in a video or something like that.
I AINT EVEN A JLO ( I LOVE BEYONCE) BUT DAM JENNIFER HAS WON ME OVER THIS VIDEO IS FCKING EPIC SHE HAS ONLY GONE AND DROPPED THE BEST VIDEO THIS YEAR ITS FUNNY AS HELL AND BANG ON POINT
HER DANCING WAS AMAZING,SHE LOOKED AMAZING EVEN THE SONGS FIRE THE SCREAMS EPIC HIT
JLO YOU HAVE WON ME OVER YOU I HAVE DECIDED IM NOW GOING TO BUY YOUR ALBUM
GERRRLLLL WERK IT WAHOOO ALL MY FREINDS LOVE IT TO
The dancing’s ok, vid’s funny.
“{Randomness: Has anyone else noticed how uneventful her choreo has been since her ‘comeback’? Just like the ‘On The Floor’ video, Jenny teases with the dance moves like she’s about to go in, builds one up, only for…nothing. Well at least not much.}” – I agree.
Too many sound effects. It detracted from the actual song; it was just like it was some background song to a movie, and not an actual music video.
no comments
Beyonce gonna copy this
She is so damn pretty. It’s a cute video different!
You guys are delusional! This mini movies is amazing! Of course it is a mini movie and if Justin Timberlake can do it so can Jlo. This is hilarious, the acting is great, and I loved the originality. The best part was all the people jumping everywhere and I loved how she could control the men around her. My husband is deployed and I feel a great connection to this whole video and that has not happened in the music industry in a long time. It’s a great video!
The video was random to me. The concept was kinda corny. Eating a cookie and your love comes back?! What the hell?!

I didn’t really understand at the beginning but towards the end I understood what the video was about. The dancing was great and I liked that there was a storyline and it was something different.
I have been watching all day and still am smiling at these funny and great video JLO. I love you mama.
*typed while listening to “what is love?” 😉
@ BOSS
And yet Jennifer Lopez would/could still dance in circles around Beyonce.
#SITDOWN
IT WAS CUTE!!!!!!
And they called “MOAIA” a flop.
LOVE? gives it a new meaning.
OMG. I love the video. So f****** awesome. Hate the song.
@J to the l o LMAO….maybe.
omg i love this video… its so different from that shyt out now
WACK!
I LIKE IT.
i love everythin abt JLO . good video but i expected more than that
