Jennifer
Lynn López (aka J. Lo, born July 24, 1970) is a well-known Puerto
Rican-American actress, singer, designer, dancer, and fashion icon. She
was born and raised in the Soundview section of Bronx, New York City,
New York. Lopez speaks English and Spanish and has two sisters, Leslie
(a music teacher) and Lynda, a well known television news anchor.
She started off as a backup dancer. She later took up acting, saying
that she always knew she wanted to do this, and that her inspiration
came from some of her favorite artists.
She started in television as a "fly girl" (dancer) on the television
comedy program In Living Color. She also played a small role in a
short-lived television program "South Central". Lastly, she has starred
in "Second Chances" and "Hotel Malibu".
She started her acting career early in the 1990s with movies like Mi
Familia, Money Train, and U-Turn, but her breakthrough was the part of
Selena Quintanilla in the movie Selena. She followed this with a
well-received performance in Out Of Sight with George Clooney. She has
also appeared in Anaconda, The Cell, Angel Eyes, The Wedding Planner,
Enough, Maid in Manhattan, Gigli, Jersey Girl, and Shall We Dance,
"Monster-In-Law& has appeared in several other movies and
television shows.
Her music, mainly pop, includes the albums J.Lo and On The 6, a
reference to the subway line she used to take growing up in Soundview.
On The 6 was released in 1999 and featured the massive first single,
"If You Had My Love". It also contained the Spanish language,
Latin-flavored duet "No me ames" with Marc Anthony, which was an
international hit and was not released as a single in the United
States, although the video got moderate airplay on American VH1 and The
Box as a novelty.
In the fall of 1999, the album's second American single, "Waiting For
Tonight" was released. It was not a hit on the same scale as "If You
Had My Love", but was huge nonetheless. The memorable video capitalized
on the millennium craze of the time, featuring J. Lo at a futuristic
dance party in a jungle, while an enormous clock counted down the
seconds to the year 2000. The video also had a popular dance remix, by
popular club remixer, Hex Hector. To date, the remix video still gets
occasional airplay on MTV2, during dance blocks.
The albums also included the other hit singles like, "Feelin' So Good",
a hip hop track which contained guest raps by Big Pun and Fat Joe and
the Latin-dance-flavored track, "Let's Get Loud".
Towards the end of 2000, Lopez released "Love Don't Cost A Thing", her
first single from her second album, J. Lo. Upon the album's release in
early 2001, it quickly rose to the top of the charts; as had the
single, which became her biggest hit since "If You Had My Love". The
second single, "Play", which was written by rising teen star, Christina
Milian, was a huge dance radio and club hit in early 2001 and was also
successful on pop radio.
The album's next two singles, "I'm Real" and "Ain't It Funny" were her
biggest ever hits both spending many weeks on top of the Billboard
charts. However, to capitalize on this, Lopez asked Murder Inc. to
remix both songs, completely changing the lyrics and melodies and
adding raps from Ja Rule in both songs, and from Caddillac Tah to
"Ain't It Funny (Remix)". The "I'm Real" and "Ain't It Funny" remixes
were two of the biggest pop and rap hits in late 2001 and early 2002,
respectively, and their more hip hop sound gave J.Lo street credibility
and brought her music to a whole new group of fans.
She continued the successful trend by getting 50 Cent and Nas to write
rhymes for two remixes of her next single, "I'm Gonna Be Alright". In
mid-2002, Lopez released a remix album called J To The L-O: The
Remixes, featuring the already popular rap remixes of "I'm Real", "I'm
Gonna Be Alright", and "Ain't It Funny", and well as the dance remix of
"Waiting For Tonight". The album also included rarer dance and hip hop
remixes of her past singles, and a new song, a ballad called "Alive,"
which was included in Lopez' movie, Enough.
In the fall of 2002, Lopez released This Is Me... Then, which spawned
three hugely popular singles: "Jenny From The Block," (based on the
"Watch Out Now" by the Beatnuts which included raps from Jadakiss and
Styles P); "All I Have," one of 2003's most popular songs to date,
which was a duet with LL Cool J; and "I'm Glad". Later she released the
fourth single "Baby I Love You" the musical theme for the movie
"Gigli." Last, she released the fifth single "The One", but the video
was based on the remixed version of the song which featured East Coast
Rapper Joe Budden.
On November 18, 2003, she released her fifth album, Reel Me, which
included a DVD having all her music videos from her first video "If You
Had My Love" to her last one "Baby I Love You." This album also
included a bonus track, "Baby I Love You (Remix)" featuring R. Kelly.
Lopez owns a clothing line called J.Lo By Jennifer Lopez. Her line is
the most successful clothing line of artists on the industry market.
Furthermore, she is planning to launch a jewelry line, hats, gloves,
and a scarves line.
Lopez also launched a new clothing line called Sweetface which hit
stores in November 2003, as well as a new perfume called Still, which
was introduced in October 2003.
She did a photoshoot to represent the Louis Vuitton winter 2003
campaign, in which the pictures would be seen all over the world
through TV commercials, billboards, ads, newspapers, magazines and more.
Other merchandise includes clothing for men and a cologne line for men due for release in winter 2004/05.
She does have a perfume line out right now called Glow, and she was in
question before, because the name came from another patented perfume.
Jennifer Lopez owns a production company Nuyorican Productions, in
which she is expected to produce some of her upcoming movies. Some of
the projects are Carmen, Dirty Girls Social Club, and The Hector Lavoe
Project. This company was founded together with her manager, Benny
Medina, against whom she filed a lawsuit because of alleged fraud in
July 2003.
The company produced the commercially successful movies The Cell, The
Wedding Planner, and Maid In Manhattan. These three movies put together
made more than $500 million worldwide.
Lopez has been in two short-lived marriages. The first one, which was
with Ojani Onoa, ended in divorce in 1998 after 21 months, and the
second, in 2001-2002, was with Chris Judd, her former backup dancer.
Between marriages, in 1999-2000, she dated singer and designer P.
Diddy, breaking up after a shooting incident in a New York night club.
Recently, Lopez has been engaged to Ben Affleck, but the marriage
planned for September 13, 2003 was called off a few days before the
event. In January 2004 the couple split.
News media reported that on June 5, 2004, Lopez married singer Marc
Anthony. There was no offical statement, but it is generally known that
Lopez and Anthony are a couple.
