Oh, how time flies!
June 1 marked 20 years since Jennifer Lopez – the former ‘In Living Color‘ “fly girl”-turned-actress – flew up the Billboard charts with her debut album, ‘On the 6.’ Preceded by its chart-topping lead single, ‘If You Had My Love,’ the project – helmed by then-boyfriend Sean “Puffy” Combs, serial hitmaker Rodney Jerkins, and more music industry heavy hitters – peaked at #8 on the Billboard charts and was later certified triple platinum.
Launching Lopez into the stratosphere of entertainment and laying the groundwork for her ultimate flexes of ‘triple threat status’ over the two decades that followed, the 49-year-old took to social media over the weekend to pay tribute to the birthday of the album that started it all for her.
As if celebrating her debut album’s birthday isn’t enough, Lopez is about to blow out her own candles as her 50th birthday approaches (July 24).
To commemorate the milestone, the singer/actress is hitting the road on the ‘It’s My Party’ tour. Set for a June 7th kick off in Los Angeles, click here for dates and more information.

Your thoughts?
Her best album HANDS DOWN..love this album! She sounds amazing on this…chile, whatever magic they worked to get her sounding this good ? My favorite song? Could This Be Love ❤️ She slayed On The 6 ??
No thanks. I have better things to do than to celebrate a White passing Latina who stole vocals from Ashanti and others, profited from Black culture, had the audacity to accept the MoTown tribute performance and is “All Lives Matter”.
Facts. Pure Facts. She is this Century’s Milli Vanilli — Stolen Beats. Stolen Vocals. Stolen images. FAKE Model.
The ultimate culture vulture!! Stolen songs and vocals, do the research and thou shall see the truth.
20 years of being an industry plant. Only Latinas get away with this kind of mediocrity. Look at Camila Cabello and Selena Gomez.
You forgot Cardi B.
Careful when talikg about the payola princess the bardigang will come for you
Oh please, the retardi gang can’t come for the truth lol.
She doesn’t f*** with black rappers nomore, she don’t shout out Diddy, the lox nobody
She would be nothing without a black male. And r.i.p to Whitney Houston
Her daughter was singing alcia keys, not Jennifer..again her kid was singing alcia keys not her mama music..
