You guys know by now that I’m something of a Jennifer Lopez Apologist. So, I was partly on her side at last night’s VMAs. Jenny walked the red carpet alone, wearing this Charbel Zoe gown that looked like it was painted on her crazy body. Think about this – Jennifer is 45 years old. Seriously. And she gave birth to twins! And her body still looks like that. The face is pretty magnificent too. And I’ll give Jennifer credit for something else: when she wants to show off her body, she manages to do without ever seeming gross. Like, even though this dress shows a lot, Jennifer still manages to look glamorous rather than trashy.
Now, for the bad stuff. I feel a little bit sorry for J.Lo that she’s 45 years old and still hustling with “the kids” at the VMAs. When she was on the carpet, she spoke to Sway about how she’s collaborating with Iggy Azalea on a remix. It just seemed sort of desperate, like, “I know what the kids like! They want Iggy, I’ll give them Iggy!”
And here’s the worst part about J.Lo’s appearance at the VMAs: Casper Smart was there too. Lainey said he choreographed Nicki Minaj’s routine. So, it’s pretty likely that J.Lo was there to promote her album AND be with her back-on boyfriend. They were seated close to each other too, and during one of the breaks, Casper gave Jennifer some Skittles while J.Lo’s manager Benny Medina looked PISSED – go here to see the photo. Medina has never been a fan of Casper. Medina is probably at his wit’s end with Jennifer’s taste in men.

I’m sorry, I think she looks tacky in whatever she wears. But her body is beautiful.
I hate the vast majority of her fashion choices. She is a very pretty woman, though.
she is, but I wish she’d stop with the “I’m so sexy” open-mouth pose.
Maybe she can’t breathe?
Agree…and her body is better than ever. How is that even possible (or fair)?!
Her body is SICK
… But so was her stylist
…and her Man tastebuds… Girl.. You are too grown/fine/rich for this*
*By This I mean: The Cher Bob Mackie Reject dress, being at the VMAs when you arent hustling anything good, Casper being around
…but so was her stylist. 😂
Body & skin look bangin, but her hair looks harrable here. Shoes are a no too.
but where is the Lie Mimif?
Reading your comments and crying because you’re the wittiest bish I never met. 😀
Hahaha LMAO
He’s been doing Nicki’s choreography lately. I’m pretty sure he’s part of her “team” now.
I like JLO’s look and I kind of feel like she’ll never be too old for the VMAS lol
Anyone see the backstage shot of JLo hugging Miley and then spinning around to give her(?) the look of Booty Doom?
YES! I saw that. It was hilarious.
Nope this dress looks very stripperella, like when exotic dancers are working the floor before putting on the performance outfits. She just needs the stripper shoes to finish it off.
Stripperella says it all. No class whatsoever–just look at me desperation.
The dress has a very burlesque vibe to it – it’s very reminiscent of the Bob Mackie/Cher costumes.
I’m ti just reminded me of my friend in Uni she used to be an exotic dancer, and these are the types of classy dresses they would wear while working the floors.
She looks amazing but she needs to ditch the parasite. I mean the guy seriously looks like one of those old school treasure trolls.
LOL yes he does!!! Oh I feel bad for laughing so much at that….
I give the woman credit, she does look awesome. Her body is tight, not really feeling the dress though. As far as Casper goes, I heard her kids loved him and miss him. She needs to be careful about that. It no longer her being single and doing her thing. When kids are in the mix it can get a little messy.
I have to agree. On anyone else, this would look trashy. But, somehow Jennifer pulls it off. Her body is CRAY.
Agreed. But her face is not what it used to be. She should smile. The super intense sultry mouth-open stare down looks scary now when she does it.
Damn you Jennifer for making me a fan of yours late in life, (I’m 32, HAHA). Anyways, she is gorgeous, I want her skin regimen/secrets and her body is sick. I would like to know what she does also, my shape is similar if I can commit to eating healthy and exercising religiously. BUT let’s be real I like booze, bacon and sweets. She showed of her assets but still maintained coverage. I agree, the hustle is kind of painful at this point.
Her body is amazing.
GORGEOUS. WOWEEEE
Then look who she’s with. Sad.
She looks awesome.
My 25 year old son and his friends think 45 is old. However, they all think JLO is gorgeous and sexy. You have to give the girl credit. She works hard to maintain! I also like that she looks healthy and not plastic!!
That body, YES 👀👍👌
That dress.. NO ✋
She looks smashing! She I’d the only one who can pull off a dress like this one.
VERY budget. It looks like an off-the-rack prom dress. I love Jenny, but not in this getup.
her body is fantastic! and you can tell she works out by the ab definition. unlike kk who supposedly works out but has no muscle definition at all!
I thought J-Lo looked good. As for working with Iggy Azalea , she always works with whoever is popular at the moment like Pitbull, Ja Rule, Fat Joe etc. They all do it.
JLO is devoted to working out-has been for years. Amazing body and face. The dress is too much, but when you look like that-f8ck it. You wear what you want. I just don’t understand it, though…maybe all that working out has atrophied her brain somehow. Back with casper!! how can she.
+100000
Definitely some issues with her.
Gorgeous though.
That’s a performance dress she has on. And she’s back with the boy toy, still trying to sell that she is not dating beneath her with the Nicki Minanj choreography bit. (Yon KNOW her people wanted to make sure that bit got out.)
Holy fudge – only JLo can pull off that dress. As for having to hang with the kids – that’s the plight of any aging pop star. Even aging rock stars have to do it, like when Aerosmith performed with Britney.
I’m speechless, she’s so gorgeous. I think she’s turned me straight! 😉
Body is amazing.
Dress is awful. You can show an amazing body and still have taste and dress age appropriate.
Also, maybe it’s just me, but I swear her face looks different, like stretched to the hilt.
Her dress looks better in the photo than on TV which looked really cheap. And yes, her face looked different on stage last night.
I’m fantasizing that Jennifer whispered into Kim K’s ear when she hugged her: “this is what working out FOR REAL and having an amazing ass looks like, please sit down now”
She’s stunning but No mater how good she looks, she’s with the tranny chaser again and that sadly brings down her game.
@DTX I love it!
+1. Perfect comment!
She’s gorgeous. I don’t know why she keeps slumming with the VMA crowd.
Does she want to appeal to the younger market perhaps? ….but being with the boy toy again just looks desperate….still IMO, JLO is one of the most beautiful woman there regardless of age.
I am beginning to think like others here have said that maybe JLO is just a bit tacky,that’s just who she is. Gorgeous ,smart business lady,, but a bit tacky in areas.
Love her though. Gorgeous .
She’s so trashy! It looks desperate at this age how she needs to keep showing th e world that she’s not aging. Will she be dressing like some over-the-hill Vegas showgirl at 50?
The first I’ve seen this I thought: try hard. But more I look at her more I like it. I
*jaw drops*
I tried to comment earlier on the BS nature of the “omg, she’s 45!!!”-ness of this article, but apparently that comment was moderated away………so I try again…
45 is not old. it’s not an age where you go “wow, can you believe how good that OLD hag looks?”
also, is it desperate to work with younger talent? is jaz y desperate for working with justin? usher with beiber?
do we get, for a dude, “omg, he’s 45! can you believe he still has those biceps, even after that role he had to get really fat for?” no.
Thank you, so true!
Completely agree. Was thinking exactly the same.
JLO is smart to work with the younger talent and do collaborations with other artists who are putting putting out hits. She’s quite smart in her business game.
Working with Justin isn’t working with one of the young whipper snappers. And even worse their collaboration was terrible anyhow.
Yes, she has an amazing body for being 45 and having twins, however, it’s not like it’s all due solely to her working out. She does work out, but she’s also had breast implants (and I’ll be they were lifted after giving birth to the twins), she’s had numerous nose jobs and tweaks. Look at her from her “In Living Color” days. She doesn’t even look like the same person…like at all. I don’t care for the implication that she is hot because she’s naturally hot or because she works hard at it. It’s a combination of some good features to work with, working out, and yes, cosmetic surgeries.
JLO looks good for 28 IMO. Her body is slamming.
Her skin is amazing and that is down to genes and taking care of herself.
JLO was always gorgeous to me. I’ve never seen her look bad,even on In LIving a Color she was beautiful, just heavier. IMO
I would love to see her on the cover of SHAPE magazine and give her workouts, I’ll bet she works out hard to get that body.
She is well-preserved, but starting to look a bit tired and over it in the face. Same look Halley Barry has lately. Like they wish instead of walking the red carpet sucking their stomachs in for dear life that they could just do what the rest of us mid-40s-ish ladies do on a Sunday evening–throw on some sweats and veg on the couch in front of a “Snapped” marathon eating cupcakes and popcorn.
I must admit I was in a bit of awe. She seriously made it work, somehow.
Don’t care about the dress, but her body at 45, holy cow. And her skin looks so beautiful.

She doesn’t look trashy? I don’t know why some people are allergic to fabric. Just once in awhile wouldn’t hurt.
She really does look amazing. Not a dress I’d choose but she is rocking it.
She’s totally rocking it. And her confidence, wow. But how do they deal in the ‘underwear department’ when they wear that kind of outfits? I would struggle.
I think, and this is just a guess cuz I’ve never inspected them!, that dresses like this one that make it basically impossible to wear underwear and impossible to not flash, that there is underwear of sorts sewn into the dress. Like, when you put on the skirt part of the dress, there’s custom-cut underwear in there that you have to step into. Or the top few inches of the slit are glued to her legs (seriously, I think they actually do that with some of these dresses, like it goes beyond what even the best fashion tape can do!). Or both.
Her dress may be tacky but she can still squint….and make her forehead move. That’s rare these days. I think she looks younger than some of the 30 year old’s with a face full of Botox.
That’s what I thought too. 45 isn’t old by any stretch, but unfortunately there aren’t many celebrities left who can even reach 30 without destroying their natural beauty.
One website had a header image with all the “main” women’s red carpet poses PhotoShopped in a single row. Jennifer was the oldest member of the lineup… but somehow she looked younger, fresher, and more beautiful than any of them.
Boring. This woman never looks classy to me.
I think she’s gorgeous but looks rough here…and 45.
If I had that sexy and amazing bod, I’d werk and twerk it too!
I think she looks amazing, and I’m sure she knows she’s on her last few yrs of dressing this way, VMA’s or no. I don’t think she’ll be like Madonna in her later yrs at awards shows, because her off duty style is largely age appropriate and classy. I cannot forgive the Casper thing though, there is just no rhyme or reason for her attachment to that weird little vampire troll. Gives me the creeps.
So Rumours about her being back with Casper were true? I’ll never understand that.
Do substantial men ask her out? They must pursue her, I would guess?
She’s so stunning.
I don’t know. I mean, Affleck would count as a substantial man, yes? I think she’s lowered her own stock though by dating so many dbags. I suspect part of it she needs someone “lesser” than her because she needs a yes-man in a similar vein as Mariah, although not to the same degree. At least at this point in her life. Maybe it’s a (long) phase and she’ll eventually get with someone who has enough in common with her and is an equal. I would put more money on JLo’s ability to eventually evolve in that way than I would on Mariah’s.
I love it!!!
