While Jennifer Lopez fans, affectionately called #JLovers, were none-too-pleased after the Academy Awards snubbed the singer-actress earlier this year (click here to read more), but redemption may come via their TV alternative – the EMMYs.
Tuesday (July 28), the Television Academy announced its highly anticipated Primetime EMMY nominations for its 72nd annual ceremony (as we reported here). Easily its most diverse crew of nominees to date, the list made history for being the most inclusive of acts of color in the event’s history.
Among celebrated nominees were Lopez and Shakira for their historic Super Bowl Halftime Show that rocked Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium in February.
Look inside to see how the ladies responded to the announcement:
Shakira took to Instagram to say:
J.Lo also took to the platform to celebrate those nominations as well as recognition for her hit NBC reality dance competition, ‘World of Dance’ (where she serves as a judge and executive producer).
The latter bagged a nomination for Outstanding Choreography For Variety Or Reality Programming.
While the EMMY nods serve as firsts for the veteran acts, its a particular win for Shaki as she’s now the first South-American act in history to be nominated at the Grammy Awards, Latin Grammys, Golden Globes and Emmy Awards.
🤔🤔 really? For that forgettable ass performance?? Ok girl.
It was definitely not forgettable because I watch this on replay all the time. They executed it all so well and had different guest while putting on a good show. Shakira with the talent, Jlo with dancing and her Bronx , New York style brought this great show. stop the cap

Congratulations, but they won’t win. The only awards JLO has won are Nickelodeon awards. Oh the MJ vanguard award nobody thought she deserved
legend Shakira deserves

Oh how funny, they won🤪🤪🤪🤪
It was legendary.
* forgettable
it was legendary like they said. now go away
This is one of the best Superbowl Halftime performances of recent memories. I love everything they did together, it was very diverse yet it all came together. Shakira a true icon and legend deserves this. Congrats to Jlo too
Jlo is way better than that Sh💩Kira. She still can’t speak English right and I can barley understand her in the voices.
and how this comment relate to what the post is about ?
Shakira has sold more records than JLo ever will and has won 10x more grammys and accolades for her music than JLo ever will on all fronts. Plus she speaks 5+ languages while you “barley” type properly on your own mother tongue. Let that skin in, loser troll 💅🏼
Neither one of them can hold a note and all shakira can do is roll her belly. Neither one of them impress me, their performance was Forgettable end of story.
shakira was on superbowl because she is from roc nation (jayz) company , how many hits or albums #1 did she has? just 1 hit 16 years ago and 0 albums on the top , even with rihanna and beyonce the girl couldnt put a hit in the last decade.
While jennifer totally deserve it she was 50 years old (now 51) some things of the last year she win:
– person of the year by people
– hustlers movie
– a succesfull tour (its my party)
– world of dance
– fashion icon award
succesfull in all fields #queen
So you switched to your old trolling account. Lame! Shakira sold more records, won more Grammys and was all over iTunes worldwide after the event. JLo is a great entertainer but musically she is Shakira’s lesser and you will deal.
Your a jlo hatter
It’s great that they were nominated but I can’t see them winning. Stranger things have happened, I guess…
And they already won sorry sweetie sit your raggedy asss down
Congratulations to these two beautiful women!
@Clarkson, don’t speak for me DEVIL..you will NEVER be me 🤳🏽
Well deserved to the Latina legends and may this serve as only the beginning for recognition of people of Latin and Hispanic descent.
Jlo is a legend . Will always be . And that performance omg SURELY NOT FORGETTABLE AT OILLL. Shak is ok but JLO KILLED IT . And for those who cant agree i believe u r a hater
