Just shoot me in the face, because I think Jennifer Lopez looks fantastic here. Jennifer was one of the big “gets” last night for Glamour Magazine’s Women of the Year event. J.Lo wore this Atelier Versace gown that was kind of overkill for the event, although there were several big “named” who ended up wearing formal gowns, so maybe I’m misjudging the “bigness” of the event. Anyway, the dress. Go ahead and yell at me. She looks great in it. Her body looks amazing in it – Versace really works on her historically, something about her curves in Versace’s usually close-cut, sexy tailoring. That thigh-high slit? Sexy! I even like the way the shoulders are cut – usually I dislike that kind of high neck in a gown, but this is great on Jennifer. Have I gushed enough? Nope.
Because I also love the she wore her hair mostly down. Jennifer does the Croydon facelift much, much too often, and I personally think she looks better when she works a softer hairstyle. I love her hair here too.
According to Us Weekly, Jennifer was the center of attention during the dinner too:
As one of the year’s honorees, Lopez looked uncharacteristically nervous at the podium.
“It’s been kind of a long night, right?” she joked, in a nod to the night’s impressive list of honorees, including Jennifer Aniston, former First Lady Laura Bush, Arianna Huffington, Gloria Steinem and others.
“We all felt a little overwhelmed tonight,” Lopez, who seemed on the verge of tears throughout her speech.
The singer, actress, designer and American Idol judge has, of course, had a challenging year, after she and Marc Anthony announced the end their marriage of seven years in July.
She told the crowd what gets her through the tough times. “It’s the women. Through the ups and the not so ups, that’s the one thing that got me through,” she admitted. “My grandmother, who taught me to cook and not be afraid to serve and be humble. And to go out looking nice because people like that and then they respect you.”
Another motivator? “My daughter Emme [3] inspires me to be a better human being.”

LMAO at “My grandmother, who taught me to cook and not be afraid to serve and be humble.” She had to be taught how to NOT BE AFRAID to be humble. That’s why I kind of love Jennifer.
Oh, and did you hear that J. Lo is in serious talks to star as Carmen Sandiego? True story.

She looks good! I like J.lo’s stye it’s street with a bit of glamour.
Like her, think she’s gorgeous, but waaaayyy too much exposed leg…why can’t people get that “less is more”?
sexy superstar.
Latina Barbie. She’s so pretty.
The dress is beautiful but her fake hair should’ve been pulled up
I thought the dress was great until I got to the thigh high slit. Umm…no.
The dress is kind of gross (just put the legs away, JLo! Put ’em away for godsake!). But–she should always wear her hair like this. It’s ten times better than it usually looks. Soft, frames her harsh facial features nicely.
I think she looks lovely, although her “pose face” always cracks me up. Close your lips, try for some subtlety… ok, who am I kidding – this is JLo
Woah. I’m too stunned to hate.
She DOES look good. I just wish she’d stop posing w/ her mouth open. She might swallow a bug.
She looks fantastic and would love to see her as Carmen Sandiego.
The real question should be, was Lopez able to sit in that dress and not flash her hoo-ha to the entire ballroom.
She will ruin Carmen San Diego. Her body looks good although she shows too much of it; her face looks more and more busted.
Close your mouf, Jennifer. Not sexy, just desperate.
Wow, her body is incredible. Perfect mix of feminine curves + fit muscles.
She looks absolutely beautiful!! Love the dress.
Meh, don’t like. Way too overdone and exposed. And her face looks extra-tweaked. The legs look great but that dress is slit waaaaay too high.
She looks absolutely gorgeous!! And I’m loving the carmen sandiego gig!! I love carmen sandiego watched it faithfully as a child…ill def support jlo if she becomes csan!!!
Am I the only one who thinks she got some work done? She looks very tightly-pulled in the face.
She does look (surprisingly) good, I think. And I like what the softer hair style does for her face, but for some reason that particular style makes her look like a little girl to me, which is totally at odds with the dress. Hmm.
Hello there, cat face!
Body is sick!
I think she looks like a tranny
Her body has always been ridiculous, she works for it and it shows.
She looks good here..very classy look.
I think she looks amazing. As usual. She really knows how to dress her body and she has her own signature style.
She meant: My grandmother, who taught me to cook and not be afraid to serve. And to be humble.
Not be afraid to serve.
Other than the awful eye makeup I think she looks really good.
Simply gorgeous!!
wow. amazing. how do i get like that?
I think she looks great from the neck down. From the neck up her face looks kind of botox-y, and not in the good way.
@Moohoo: You can get like that by having a team of people that are paid to make you look good, or you could do some research about what kind of clothes, shoes, makeup and hair looks best on you, as well as what features you want to play-up and which ones you want to play-down. Youtube is a great way to find out about different style, makeup, and skin care options, so that’s a great place to start.
She looks good here, great dress choice, hairstyle and even the makeup looks good. Well played JLO, classy. I hate when actresses do that open mouthed pose, they all look ridiculous.
An inch less of a split. That’s not thigh-high that’s hip-high!
Really that’s just a minor detail and doesn’t take away from the Gorgeous!
I saw a pic from another angle. It’s cut well enough that it doesn’t look scary when she moves.
she’s making that constipated face AGAIN
Shes morphing into cat face with all the botox and work she has recently had done.
She looks tranny. Way to much botox around the eyes or a very bad eye lift. Why do girls mess their faces up this way?
I wish she would quit posing with her mouth open. She’s been looking different for quite some time. I’ve decided it’s the eyebrows. She nees to clean them up.
As much as her Jenny from the Blockness market saturation annoys me, I can say that the woman can wear the sh*t out of a dress. She looks beautiful.
Look at all the gum on the ground! GROSS! She needs to lift her dress and not let it drag in that sh*t!
Too much leg, too much make up.
Rockin’ body, but I’ve seen 100 times too much of it 100 times too often.
She looks fantastic..in fact I think she looks the best she has looked in years at the moment. Maybe parting ways with Skeletor has done her good.
I’m not loving it. Her face looks asian and the slit in the dress is too high.
No. Bathrobes are allowed to slip open like that, subtly revealing a toned thigh at the breakfast table (in my dreams, of course). This is hideous, tacky, and cheap. Not classy at all. But it’s JLo we’re talking about here.
nice body, horrid, hard looking face.
too much botox
The dress is beautiful, but it’s too much at an event like this that’s more serious and about honoring women. It’s like she’s trying to outsexy all the other women there. And in one picture her arms look huge. I hope that doesn’t mean she’s going to start dating A-Rod.
Her face is JACKED.
Lopez looks great here! Really flattering dress on a fantastic body. Can’t stand her but gotta give it to her for finally getting this right.
My favorite Jennifer… Great body and face
She looks stunning. Her body is sick and it’s obvious she works her ass off for it. I’m surprised about how much I love the dress on her. Wasn’t overly thrilled about it on the model, but it really is beautiful. It would have liked to see the slit a little less high though. Extremely high slits work for the runway but not in real life.
Omgosh Kaiser….I don’t get it. Body? Yes, amazing!!!! Hairstyle? Doesn’t match the sexy vibe of the dress. Makeup? Hate the eye shadow. Dress? Meh. Color is boring and slit is too high!!!
So pretty when she’s not doing that stupid open mouth sexy-face that she always does. But I agree that she looks aces here in that Versace. Talk about toned.
She is divine perfection! <3
Eat your heart out Kim Lardashian. Your fakeness pales in comparison.
OMG…i couldnt stop looking at her. The dress color with her skin tone is perfect. Her makeup should be more simple.
i wonder what she does to her face as she gets older she improves!!
