How did J.Lo get so big (fame wise)

[KravenMorehead™]

Yep. Not to mention her hit songs were sung and written by other people such as Ashanti on "I'm Real remix" and Christina Milian on "Play", Puff and Irv just blended their voices with J. Lo's to make her sound better.

on some drake shyt damn this all just re-clicked right now

 

[Hope]

Puffy had nothing to do With J Lo's career.

 

[Champagne Kudo]

I don't know but she'll always have the I'm real remix

Yo know why nikka, it's the only thing she has.

Here's the reason why...

Around that time' late 90s, there was a 'Latin explosion' in music. Ricky Martin [Vida Loca], Enrique Iglesias [Bailsmos] were tearing up the charts. Everyone was saying that this is the next big thing in music. Record executives across the board were trying to ride that wave and thus seeking any artist they could find as the next big crossover star.

One strategy was to get Latino stars already popular in Latino countries to make English-speaking albums [see Shakira] and the other approach was to find some US-based Latino artist and market them. It just so happened that Jennifer Lopez had sufficient name recognition at that time due to a few movies, including Selena. She was a perfect fit. Song writers and producers made some songs for her and the marketing teams went to work. That's essentially it.

her acting is

her singing voice is

and we've seen her without makeup

Selena perhaps?

She came up the same way as Amber Rose, Kim K and all the other hoes by fukking a Blackman and having a moderate ass that people overhyped.

she's sitting on her meal ticket.
literally....

The ass, Selena, riding the wave Ricky Martin started with Living La Vida Loca, she had the hottest producers of the time for her debut album, that whole fiasco in the club with Diddy & Shyne, this dress

Crazy work ethic, a good look, and a great agent. Most of the top Pop Stars/Movie Stars aren't all that talented - they just have an inhumane will to succeed, make the right choices, and work constantly. Look at Rihanna, for instance.

She used puff
And she used hip hop to get to pop music

Puffy had nothing to do With J Lo's career.

i think so too, puff wouldnt have gotten with her if she wasnt a star attraction already.

 

[scarlxrd]

She fukked her way to the top.

Her acting actually is the best I've seen from a female singer. She isn't bad at all. I really liked her in Enough.

She got a lot of recognition for playing Selena right after Selena's death. She struck while the iron was hot and began her music career. She was pretty and came out with hits (most that she didn't even sing and that she stole from others usually black artists, but the pulic didn't know that at the time. Jlo can't sing for shxt, she knows it too.

She took her first in into the industry as a dancer on a popular show, then from that went into acting. I'm sure she fcked many industry people as well.

Every time I hear someone say she can't act, I always think they're saying it just to say it. & maybe b/c she was an actress and a singer and that is their sterotype. She was anctress first and got hired frequently way before she was known and her music came out, so yes she can act. She just can't sing.

She's not a singer who acts, she was an actress first.
