These are photos of Jennifer Lopez at an album signing/launch. I don’t even know what to call it. She just showed up in this outfit (ugh) and signed stuff for fans. First: her face looks strange. Botoxy strange. Second: Why is she obsessed with showing us her stomach? We get it, J.Lo. You had babies and your stomach bounced back. Now put on a shirt. I know this is mean to say and some of you will yell at me, but Jennifer is too old to be dressing like this. She basically put on a bra and an ’80s jacket and called it a day. She’s such a Fly Girl.
Next: her album is called LOVE? Seriously, there’s a question mark. And after she released her first single “On the Floor” to mixed reactions, Jennifer has now released the second single, “Papi”. Ugh. Here it is:
I find it sad. But Jennifer thinks she’s the second coming of Rihanna/Beyonce/Gaga. Read this delusion:
Jennifer has complete faith in the record, although she likes having feedback from her entourage to confirm she hasn’t lost touch with the music scene.
“To be honest I’m at the point where there’s no need to put out something that I know is not good,” she told Stylist.
“I have people around me who I trust implicitly: my record company and my manager. They tell me it’s a great record and I go, ‘OK, so I’m not crazy’.”
The gorgeous star is proud to still be making hit dance records in her 40s, despite also being a busy mother and devoted wife. Jennifer has three-year-old twins Emme and Max with husband Marc Anthony, and she says her family consider her to be both a mom and a pop icon. Marc has two kids with ex-wife Dayanara Torres, and Jennifer admits one of the little boys cannot believe she is a parent because she’s so glamorous.
“It’s me, the same as ten years ago, but not the same and I’m proud of that,” she smiled.
“Marc has two other sons, one of whom is six years old and he’s always telling me, ‘You don’t look like a mom, you look like a rock chick.’”

Oh, Jennifer. Ugh. I mean, I get it. She’s transitioning, and she doesn’t realize that she’s still not relevant, really. Sure, she was once the biggest thing – ten years ago. And while she made a good move by going to American Idol, let’s not pretend she’s on her way to becoming J.Lo circa 2000. That ship has sailed.

Dear JLo, I would like to go in your time machine back to 1990, too. Can I bring back my 14 year old metabolism?
What’s up with the Farrah Fawcett hair?
She is the worlds most beautiful person remember? lmao!!
Strange but I like the outfit. It is a bit young for her but I feel like shes pulling it off here
I like the outfit, too much for a 42 years old but stilll looks good.
Kaiser: look at this photo of Reese. I thought she was pregnant a few weeks ago but this proves it unless she is just eating a lot.

How about Fly Girl forever AND fug?
If she wants people to know she’s still got it, she could just go to some random beach and tip the paps. Perhaps she wouldn’t even have to do that.
And WickedSteppMom, any hairdo she sports now is still better than this:
http://cdn.sheknows.com/articles/2011/02/worst-oscar-hair-jennifer-lopez-04.jpg
dunno, gotta give her credit for looking like she’s hardly aged in a decade….hair looks good (I’ll pardon the flyaway bangs), makeup looks good, ‘Tox even looks good.
AND, if I had the abs to pull off a look like that…..ehhhhhh – I’d do it. I’d wear an ugly floral tube and some cigarette pants and strut that all day. So, age-appropriate or not, she still looks ridiculously good.
It’s kind of sad when older celebrities try too hard to look young.
I just think the lighting is entirely weird, as well how she is angeling herself towards the camera, the hair framing that makes her jaw line look weird, the pictures below look fine. I don’t see any Botoxness going on. I’m sure there is stuff out there that can give the illusion of a botox likeness. What about the whole old thing of the tape pull back lol?
As for the outfit, it’s cute for someone maybe 20 years younger or so. You get to an age where somethings that you would love to wear doesn’t mean you should wear it. Even if you look younger for your age.
something must be wrong with me today because I actually kinda like the song…
Look, I think if you have a good body and you want to wear something to show it off, you should. But there IS a limit and she has gone beyond that limit. She looks incredibly age-inappropriate and I don’t care how good her abs are. It looks like she’s trying way too hard to turn back the calendar. Sorry, JLo, but how old are you?? If you want to show off your abs then go to the beach and wear a bikini – don’t dress like you’re 18 when you go out to a public appearance.
I actually like her hair though.
I barely recognized her. I think she looks good but that face has been jacked or whacked or something.
If I had a tummy tuck after my twins, I’d have a flat belly too!
God. Who’s worse? Goopy or J-Lo? They both make me want to barf.
I think she tries too hard to be sexy. Sexy has nothing to do with the clothes you wear. I believe that sexy is an attitude. I think that she should concentrate more on raising her children.
@Raven Sparrow. Me too. That’s not going back naturally. It can be flat, but it won’t look like it did and she’s had surgery.
Also, did she get new boobs? I mean, to go with that new face?
I hate to be nitpicky, but stuff like this drives me crazy. It’s stomach-BARING, as in her stomach is bare. Not stomach-BEARING.
She has a pretty voice and has the capacity to be an elegant beauty, she just doesn’t dress or sing in a way that will advance her the way she wants. She’s definitely stuck in the past. JLo, time to stop being JLo, be Jennifer, leave behind the booty shaking music and…bandeau bras and make grown up music. I think if she hired a song writer whose music truly moved her she could sing it beautifully. Also, as they say on What Not To Wear, you can be sexy without being overtly “sexy.” Try it.
My two cents.
Sami – You’re right, sorry about that! I fixed it.
Unfortunately she has no where to transition with her career, music-wise. She is TOO old (and too rich/pampered) for this look and for dance music and for pretending in her videos she is living the crazy club-dancing life of a 25 year old. It’s not believable. BUT, she doesn’t have a good voice…at all. So, she can’t transition into like adult contemporary ballads or just more mature music. She’s stuck. Therefore, the fly-girl outfit. Good thing she found Idol, although I hope they fire her a*s next year for being a SUCKY judge.
It’s an eyebrows disaster! Why doesn’t she fix them? They’re just so terrible..ugh
fug ensemble, but her body is amazing. damn.
I hate the outfit, but if I was rocking abs like that at 40, I would probably show them off while I still had them too.
Just in a better outfit.
i think like Jennifer Aniston, JLO would like to go back to the years she initially became famous. She not just sort of old but she has ZERO singing talent. She is however a fantastic dancer, if she wasn’t so set on competing with the Rhiannas/Beyonces/Gagas she could have had a great run as the next Denise Austin and formed herself an exercise empire…. i cannot stand her but i totally love watching her dance and i bet she has great workout tips.
BTW: Lainey had a great link to an old interview article with her when she was just breaking out where she talks smack about GOOPY, Winona, Sandra and more delusions of grandeur… PRICELESS
You are over 40 granny from the block. Time for muumuu.
Pants ick – but everything else eh. I’d bare my tummy if I had one like hers! I love her hair though, extensions and all. But her FACE way too much botox. Every expression she makes her face does NOT MOVE. Its kind of creepy. No lines whatsoever, not even the NORMAL kind that everyone gets even if you’re 10 from making an expression. Bizzare.
Wow.. someone sure looks ‘refreshed’
She’s had two kids. That said, she looks great. I’ve had three & wish I had a stomach like that. Granted, she probably had a bit of surgery to help her out, but whatev. More power to her.
Just fug
Age inappropriate
2011 face?
I’m infinitely unimpressed by this woman. Musically I’m neutral because I grew up hearing it but Worlds most beautiful? LMAO! Even Megan Fox’s new face could be held in higher esteem
Not funny People magazine.. not funny at all.
She looks good!
The outfit isn’t the worse thing here, it’s her obnoxious attitude that sets me off. And those eyebrows. But why does she have to mention Dayanara’s chidren in an interview. Ugh!! Talk about your twins…leave the other kids out of it.
No, you’re right. She IS too old to be wearing that. I’m 28 and I am also too old to go out dressed like that!
#3, How true. I’ve seen more attractive women cleaning my hotel room. That award is a joke.
Go j.lo!! I prefer her over bleachy aka beyonce ANYDAY!! But I also am a bit **heavy sigh** tired of seeing her belly!! It does seem like she’s screaming I had twins n my tummy is perfect!! **sideeye** tho I don’t really **vibe** her album as much as others I do love that she’s doing what she loves n also sat down long enough 2 marry have a family and still grinding!! **cough** beyonce** but yea her face does look a lil shall I say off??…different?? OLD!….there we go!! N e who I guess she just wanted 2b chill its only an album signing thingy mabob sooo hey…..
her ego is almost as big as her ass.
How nice of her to bring down that other mommy…
She has a whole new face and a pretty good doctor too. The outfit is ridiculous on a woman her age, she looks desperate.
I totally agree with Jackson: Jlo was doing fine now with the Most Beautiful it’s gone to her head, the sausage look at a wedding and now this outfit the pants is way nineties, after you have kids and hit forty something, no matter what you do your figure have changed because your body begin to go into menopause just saying , part of life, like Jenifer Aniston she is looking desperate. JA is beautful but appears like a sad sack and a joke no Jlo you don’t want to go out like that.
She is the next Madonna: a grandmother trying to look like a granddaughter. She is over, far are the days of the green dress (fortunately).
You can show you still have a good body without putting on a half tube top. That’s what form-fitting tops and scheduled photo ops, I mean “candid shots” at the beach are for. And just because it fits DOES NOT mean you should wear it.
If people are using “good” and “inappropriate/desperate” to describe the same look, then it’s a fail.
No, I don’t think her ship has sailed. She has it and she can flaunt it still. I think she is at her peak and will be for quite a while. American Idol has been her best move, people are liking her a lot. The woman is building her empire, perfumes, commercials, music, clothes, etc.
She really needs an eyebrow wax.
As much as it pains me to admit it, she actually did make a smart career move by hosting AI. Now she has a hit song (even though the song is pure crap) which is exactly what she wanted, BUT it will only last as long as she’s on Idol.
Fly girl forever, duh.
@Dea – for that Reese pic, she DOES look preggers !! Dang, can that girl get married without being knocked up ? (She was knocked up when she married Philippe, and probably the reason they tied the knot in the first place given they were so young, IMHO).
ok so “on the floor” is my current favorite at the gym song, but jlo needs to stop trying SO hard to look younger. who wears belly shirts anymore? not even 20 year olds!
I don’t think she looks bad. I also don’t really think she looks “too old” to pull it off. Her stomach looks pretty amazing. Has she done something to it? Last time we saw her stomach in that other midriff shirt, she looked a teensy bit flabbier and she had stretch marks. And I applauded her then because it seemed like she didn’t give a shit. What REALLY irks me is her comment about Torres’s son. I don’t like it when the new wife makes comments about the old wife’s children. It’s base and it’s a pot-shot on an easy target. The world isn’t as interested or informed on Torres, so she has no real way of defending herself without looking like a famewhore. I could punch JLo for that. And I’m sorry, but I don’t buy that a 6 yr. old is “always saying” that to her. Ridiculous.
Jennifer will never get the hint,so we’ll have to spell it out for her.You’re old.Go away!
I feel better now.
This would have been cute on her daughter or on perhaps an Idol contestant. I hate it when women over 40 dress like teenagers, it does nothing but make them look old. You can be hip and cool and not look like you a trying to be something you’re not anymore. Tack-Tack-Tacky!
Sure, she has a nice body but that outfit is ridiculous on someone who is over 25. But whatever, her business if she wants to dress like that. The thing that I find inappropriate is her comment…
“Marc has two other sons, one of whom is six years old and he’s always telling me, ‘You don’t look like a mom, you look like a rock chick.’”
Way to passive-aggressively shoot down her stepson’s mother. Not cool.
I’m going to defend Jennifer on this one. She looks great and I don’t think she has messed with her face at all. The outfit is kind of fug, but she is pretty harmless, why people hate her is beyond me.
I don’t think she is very talented, but I would rather deal with Jlo than slutty ass Rihanna and copycat gaga any day. I’m kind of surprised that people are ripping her apart. People love Rihanna and her lack of singing just because she’s young and hot, but Jennifer is so terrible because she’s had work done and is “old”? Jeez. The real question is – who hasn’t had work done in Hollywood – young and old?
I don’t think she meant any harm by bringing up Marc’s kids. Dayanara and Jlo get along as far as I’ve read. I don’t even like the woman and I’m defending her, lol.
It’s time to dress like a grown up now. This is waaay too young for her. Is that gum in her mouth in the last photo?
Nicest thing i can say about her is I guess she has good skin.
Still, I don’t want to see that puddin’ tummy.
Or harem pants! GACK. Put it away, Desperado!
Cheap. Ass. Weave. 🙁
I find her to be the most shallow fame-whore there is. Sure, she’s pretty, but how about challenging yourself to either be a good actress or a good singer? She is sub-par at both. Like many of us, she is far more interested in fame and attention than she is in producing quality music or movies. I’d find her a lot more likable if she just came down to earth a little.
When your signing stuff at Best Buy, it’s over.
Am I the only one who’s kinds offended that she refers to her husband’s first two children as his “other” sons? It sounds dismissive to me…
I think she had a tummy tuck and I knw I saw stretch marks when she wore that other ensemble w/her belly out–she had make up on her tummy.
She looks ridicilous but I guess you gotta do what ya gotta do to sell records and stay relevant to the kiddies.
its laughable
I’d like the song if someone else was singing it.
I have to hand it to her, though, she’s working hard to pay her bills. I don’t think Papi is writing the checks these days.
When the AI gig is up, I can totally see her doing the Vegas thing like Celine Dion. She’d probably sell big, not because she’s good, but because she’s J-Lo and they’d go heavy on the production.
Trust me, I ain’t a fan of J-Lo at all.
But I’m tired of the whole “a 40+ should not wear X outfit” type comment. She has the body for it so good for her. Actually, a 20-year old with rolls should not wear it. It’s about the body and attitude…not the age.
FLY GIRL FOREVER!
Wow, she’s FLY. And stuck in the early 90s. 😀
She has great skin for her age.
Awful song, but it’s not as terribly bad as ‘put on my lou-bat-ons’.
Dance for your papi? Really?
I agree with whomever said it earlier in comments– she needs to find some quality songwriters and make moving, mature music. I don’t mean age-wise, but look at Adele, she’s 21 and her music sounds so old-world, so glamourous and full of depth.
If Jennifer could transition into making better quality product, maybe I wouldn’t rag on her so much. Until then, she and Skeletor can go frame and hang copies of her ‘Most Beautiful’ (gag) cover.
She’s young and gorgeous…I think she looks stunning. I was tiny at her age, too, and used to wear similar outfits (when they fit the occasion). Hers does.
she is too old to be wearing that.
people, you don’t have a life ?
she’s definitely not the most beautiful. she’s okay,she lost significant weight and her body looks very toned and slim. way to go.
I just can’t stand JLo these days. She had a huge long-running domination of music, movies, & advertising.
She’s just coming off a bit desperate these days. It’s not coming as easily as it did before, like whatever it was about her that drew people in isn’t there anymore. (I don’t watch AI at all, haven’t in forever, but can’t stand what I’ve seen of her on that show.)
She’s beautiful (although not the ‘most beautiful person’, as she was named recently….Where TF did that come from?) , but those pants… They’re so strange & baggy on her hips. Blegh.
First of all, where does it say that when you turn 40, you gotta be frumpy, and I’m 20 btw, On the floor was a worldwide hit, 2 weeks ago was the #1 song in the world and it’s gone platinum in the U.S. and the second single is I’m Into You, Papi’s just a buzz single!
I agree with #51 and 60. Also, I hope no one takes offense to this because I am Latina as well but Latinas of a certain age or generation now do tend to dress fairly “young for their age.” I know a few who will say “Oh, I can’t wear that…it’s for the young girls.” But mostly, I could be at Forever21 and there is a Latina shopping on her own or with children (or her own teen daughter). If you have the body for it and you’re not embarrasing your children and have the ability to do so, why not?
This is natural to Jennifer….she is more Gwen Stefani (it’s just her nature to be eclectic and fun because she is expressive) than Mariah Carey (who does reek of delusional and/or deseparate)
Musically, I think her album “This is me…Then” showcased a lot of artistic growth and even critics that diss her voice expressed that but she wants to chuck that growth because she associates it with the embarrasment of Ben Affleck. She should continue and move beyond it, not try to pretend it never happened. That’s my two cents.
To the person who wrote this,and the people who left rude comments about jlo the only thing i have to say is why are you guys hating on her, yes she is a mother and yes she WAS a fly girl but if she want to show her legs or stomach that mean she still got and to let the world know that who are mothers who have 1 to 3 kids or whatever can still have a body of there dreams and that they still can do whatever they want. But for the rude people dont be rude just keep in mind the if you keep talking about J lo in a bad why or just be rude about her it means that you are jelous of her that it not you or your just not good enough meaning you just put yourself down and that you have kid and you rather be lazy not work out so the only thing i have to say is GET UP FORM YOUR LAZY ASS AND WORK OUT!!!!.
