Jennifer Lynn Lopez was born in the Bronx's Castle Hill, in July 1969 to an Army guy turned computer tech and housewife turned gym teacher. Her decision to take up dance led to a major falling out with her mother, leaving the aspiring terpsichore living at her dance studio for months thereafter.
Kicking off her career as an In Living Color Fly Girl, her big break came when she costarred in the Wesley Snipes/Woody Harrelson reunion Money Train, followed by a starring role as the late Tex Mex icon Selena, the absurd Anaconda and a string of successful rom coms like The Wedding Planner, Marry Me and Shotgun Wedding.
A third and simultaneous shift into dance music led to 9 albums and a long run of chart topping hits in conjunction with big names like Pitbull, Wisin Y Yandel, Big Pun, Fat Joe and Ja Rule (just to name a few!)
Her much vaunted curvature actually led to an entire sociocultural shift in what American males find sexy in a woman, and her troubled love life has been top drawer fodder for tabloid coverage for decades, culminating in a surprising second time around reunion with the other half of Benifer (Mark I AND III), Ben Affleck just a year or so back.
Nominated for dozens of awards in both music and film over the years, she's been called one of the world's most influential people, and she continues to deliver light if entertaining product right to this very day.
Join us as we take on the "triple threat" queen of media, the one and only Jennifer Lopez, only here on Weird Scenes!
