“Jenny From The Block”
This song was a cultural reset that fans still listen to and love to this day. Released in 2002, this song helped build Lopez’s fanbase and allowed her to connect with her them. Lopez was seen not just as a superstar, but as a relatable person just like any other girl who had grown up in the Bronx in New York.

Monster In Law
The multifaceted celebrity starred in the marvelous movie Monster In Law alongside Michael Vartan in 2005. This film stood out among her many others because of her opportunity to work with Jane Fonda, who returned to cinema after her last role in 1990. Lopez went on to become one of the highest paid Latina actresses in the history of Hollywood.
I’m watching #MonsterInLaw and JLo actually doesn’t age. If she wasn’t in jeans and a dress, I’d think this was her from last week.
