Woow!
It was probably one of the hottest VMA performances of all time!
Jennifer Lopez became the first Latin American artist to win the VMA Vanguard Award
and to quote Harper's Bazaar, Jennifer gave an “ epic Performance and we're Still Recovering”.
But this bombshell not only fascinates from stage but has also mesmerised quite a few
men’s hearts.
Watch the video to find out about the men that Jenny from the block has dated!
Ooo, the crazy 2000s!
While Crazy frog electro sounds where filling up the clubs’ dancing floors, JLO had just
quit back up dancing for Janet Jackson and started on her own path.
But she wasn’t standing alone while fighting for a successful career as an artist.
Jennifer dated rapper Sean Combs, aka P. Diddy, from 1999 to 2001.
They seemed to be the perfect couple, with P. Diddy standing alongside her at all the
major events in J’s career.
Including her stunning red carpet appearance in an exotic green Versace dress for Grammy
in 2000.
But Jennifer’s cute smile in front of the cameras was hiding ahurricane of disappointment
and pain.
The artist revealed that it was the first time she had ever been in a relationship with
an unfaithful partner.
Lopez couldn't stand it anymore and took a decision to call it quits.
Reflecting on their relationship in an interview, Jennifer says: “I was in this relationship
with Puff where I was totally crying, crazy and going nuts, it really took my whole life
in a tailspin..”
Leaving her disappointment aside, Jennifer concentrated on her career and it paid off
very well.
She made a great breakthrough, not only in the music world, but also in Hollywood.
Lopez starred in the romantic comedy The Wedding Planner opposite to Matthew McConaughey.
Jennifer played next to one of the hottest actors in the industry, but her heart was
filled with love for only one man - Cris Judd.
Cris first met the singer as the backup dancer for her “Love Don’t Cost A Thing” video.
Maybe it just love at first sight or maybe they were struck by the heat from the dance
floor, but the couple quickly fell in love.
The two got married right away, but it was probably too fast a move for both of them
and the couple filed for divorce the next year.
This was her second marriage, after her 1997-1998 union with model Ojani Noa.
Jennifer said she loved Cris even after their divorce, but they didn’t have the tools
that make a marriage work.
She opened up in an interview, saying: “But marriage is not just about love.
I thought I had learned that in my first marriage …I loved Cris, still love him, he’s one
of the best people.”
It was now 2002 and Jennifer had released her third studio album, featuring her lead
single "Jenny from the Block".
It is believed to be her most iconic single.
But that's not the only thing that made her album special.
Turns out the whole thing was dedicated to her then-fiancee, the actor, Ben Affleck.
The two met on the filming set of Gigli and fell madly in love with each other and soon
got engaged.
Both are passionate and very talented and they had a lot in common.
But unexpectedly, Affleck called the wedding off just 4 days before the ceremonial day
in 2003.
Because of the excessive media attention, the actor explained and said they had only
postponed it and that it wasn't cancelled.
Though JLO fans were hoping for the best, the couple eventually broke up in half a year.
Many years later Jennifer said they were not ready for the public relationship, adding:
“We just happened to be together at the birth of the tabloids, and it was like ‘Oh
my God.’
It was just a lot of pressure.”
Jennifer Lopez is always in search of two things: inspiration for music and love.
Her music and filming career was flourishing.
Jennifer starred alongside Jane Fonda in the romantic comedy Monster-in-Law and just two
months later played next to Robert Redford and Morgan Freeman in An Unfinished Life.
The growing attention to her filming career wasn’t the only surprising thing around
that time.
Lopez had a secret wedding to Marc Anthony in a private jet, just a few months after
her split from Affleck.
They got married even before they publicly acknowledged the relationship.
She finally found happ iness in marriage and settled down, having
cute twins Emme and Maximilian in 2008.
The happy artists both starred in biographical film El Cantante, playing a married couple
on screen.
As unexpected as the news was about the Anthony and Lopez marriage, so was the striking news
about their split.
But JLo says they still remain close friends and co-parents.
“I just got out of a big, heavy, devastating thing…” said JLO about her split from
Anthony.
She probably needed something refreshing.
She found support and care in the strong arms of dancer and choreographer Casper Smart.
The couple was on and off for a couple of years.
But in 2016 Jennifer finally ended it all, allegedly because Casper cheated on her more
than once.
Poor Jennifer got her heart wrecked once again.
The broken-hearted affairs didn’t slow Jennifer down.
Not in music, nor in her personal life.
Lopez earned the role of detective Harlee Santos in NBC's crime drama series Shades
of Blue and continued recording world music hits.
Whilst absorbed by filming and performing she somehow still found some time for a good
man’s company.
Jennifer was often caught cuddling and going out with rapper Drake.
They were rumoured to be dating but it seemed to not be a serious thing from the very beginning.
During her appearance on The Daily Show, Lopez stopped the rumours once and for all: “Let
me clear this up.
I am not with Drake.”
It was a real pity for their fans.
They would definitely make a great couple.
Rodriguez is known for being a notorious ladies man.
And what didn't start as a serious thing at thirst, suddenly grew into engagement news.
The 48-year-old music icon took a photo of her and Alex at the beach, and fans quickly
noticed a big engagement thinger on her finger.
We are now waiting for a juicy update about the love birds’ relationship status.
At her acceptance speech at the VMAs, Jennifer teared up talking about her kids and boyfriend
Alex, saying: “You are like my twin soul.
We are like mirror images of each other.
My life is sweeter and better with you in it.”
It has been a great year for JLO, both in career and in love.
Keep on going Jenny from the block!
