Jennifer Lopez’s Ageless Moments Through the Years

What a vision! In her first starring film role, Lopez played the late Latin superstar Selena Quintanilla-Pérez. In April 2015, Lopez gave an emotional tribute to the “Dreaming of You” singer at the Billboard Latin Music Awards.

The dress of all dresses! Lopez’s plunging green Versace dress became an iconic moment in fashion history. It turned heads, sparked the idea of Google Images, and made the singer a red carpet darling. “This loud sound started from the back of the room — it was kind of like a roar, over me in the dress,” Lopez told W magazine in August 2013. “When I went to my seat, I said, ‘What’s the big deal?!'”

Getting that Moonman! Dating Diddy at the time, Lopez showed off her killer abs while wearing a Sean John white crop top and low-rise jeans. She accessorized with a headband and silver heels.

Mary and Steve forever! Lopez starred opposite Matthew McConaughey in the Adam Shankman–directed rom-com. “It was great working with Matthew,” Lopez told Para Todos magazine in April 2014. “I have fond memories of him on set.”

Not here for it! Lopez gave attitude while getting rid of her gold jewelry in the sexy music video. She showed off her toned figure and famous booty — and went topless.

That hair! Lopez wore a strapless pink Versace dress with over-the-top curls at the star-studded event. Her eye candy for the evening? Her second husband, Judd, whom she wed in October 2001, only to split eight months later.

The Bennifer years! Lopez brought on then-boyfriend Affleck to be a part of her music video. The singer danced on top of a car, wore a fur coat and nothing else, and got her bum rubbed by the actor during an intimate yacht scene.

What a difference a year makes! After her divorce from Judd was official in 2003, Lopez moved on with Affleck. (The couple called off their engagement a year later.) The “I’m Real” singer looked effortless in an off-the-shoulder mint green Valentino gown.

Work it! The star looked chic wearing a Just Sweet green dress while walking the runway at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week.

Judge duties! Lopez looked fresh in a shimmering jumpsuit while attending a press conference for season 10 of American Idol.

Can do no wrong. Accompanied by boyfriend Casper Smart, Lopez showed off her famous curves in an ivory long-sleeve Zuhair Murad dress with embroidered lace. The singer was first linked to the choreographer in November 2011.

Pulling an Angelina Jolie! Clad in a black Anthony Vaccarello dress, all eyes were on Lopez — and her leg — on the red carpet. She added a pop of dark eye makeup and kept her locks in a topknot.

Hot mama! Lopez looked half her age in a cutout purple getup with beaded detail while performing on stage. She showed off her toned legs and donned a bouncy ponytail.

How old!? Lopez relaxed poolside while celebrating her 45th birthday with BFF Leah Remini in the Hamptons. “She yelled at me ‘DONT MOVE!’ Another shot by Remini,” Lopez captioned via Instagram. “#shemakesmelaugh #notmad #loca #loveher #shesgettinggoodatthis.”

Now and then! Looking flawless (as usual!), Lopez reunited with Teen Wolf‘s Tyler Posey 12 years after costarring in 2002’s romantic comedy Maid in Manhattan. “Aww look at Ty all grown up!!” Lopez captioned an Instagram pic of the two.

Hot crisscross. Lopez bared some skin in a sparkly silver Charbel Zoe dress with a thigh-high slit. Once inside, she accepted some Skittles from then-ex Smart.

Still killing it! Lopez stripped down for her sexy collaboration with Australian rapper Iggy Azalea. The duo danced in their underwear, wore fishnet tights and kept the focus on their derrieres.

Because she can. The entertainer went natural for a gorgeous Instagram shot. “Long day. Feels good to just be #HOME lol see how I did that..” she captioned the snapshot, referring to her animated film Home.

Pretty princess. Lopez wore a blue sequined dress for the L.A. premiere of her animated movie Home. Her adorable twins, Max and Emme, supported their famous mom on the purple carpet.

Absolute perfection. Lopez graced the cover of Us Weekly‘s Best Bodies Issue in May 2015. “I see pictures of myself in my twenties and go, ‘Oh, I look better now!'” she exclusively told Us. “I embrace who I am. I feel sexy, I feel youthful, I feel pretty sometimes!”

Red hot! Lopez strategically covered her assets in an embroidered Versace piece for the “China: Through the Looking Glass” bash.

Old Hollywood glam: Lopez stunned in a navy strapless Valentino dress with gold sequined detail while hitting the Big Apple.

JLo said goodbye to her American Idol judgeship in a sparkly, long-sleeve high-low dress that highlighted her impeccably toned legs.

Her Ralph & Russo couture gown may have been pink with a tulle confection of a neckline, but the deep plunge and thigh-high slit, along with her sleek, long locks, screamed siren.

The fabric of her Julien Macdonald gown was barely there on the Coral Gables, Florida red carpet. The sex appeal? That’s another matter altogether.

Um, wow! The “Waiting for Tonight” singer put others to shame in a cleavage-baring gold Elie Saab number. Ready to let loose, she wrote via Instagram: “And now mamas turn to party … #grownuptime #oscarweekend.”

Lopez kicked her ageless look up a notch in Las Vegas with a pair of over-the-knee boots that matched her burgundy peekaboo ensemble.

You don’t get a body like that by just hanging around! A week after her 49th birthday, Lopez and her six-pack were snapped heading into a dance studio in NYC for an afternoon workout.

She and Rodriguez made their red carpet debut as an engaged couple at the “Celebrating Camp: Notes on Fashion” Met Gala in NYC — and they made it count. He wore a pink Versace tux while she dazzled in a silver gown by the same brand. A matching jeweled wig completed her killer look.

With abs like that, who needs a full gown? To collect her Icon Award at the 2019 CFDA Fashion Awards ceremony in Brooklyn, New York, Lopez donned a two-piece hot orange ensemble by Ralph Lauren Collection.

Lopez stunned when she hit the red carpet premiere for Hustlers at the 2019 Toronto International Film Festival. At the time, she had her hair in a sleek bob and wore a gown from Maison Yeya that she paired with heels from Femme LA.

Lopez made a surprise appearance during Versace’s Milan Fashion Week runway show, where she rewore a version of her iconic green jungle-print dress from the brand. She originally wore the dress in 2000 to the Grammy Awards.

Lopez looked incredible as she performed alongside Shakira during the Super Bowl LIV halftime show in Miami. During her performance, she showed off her pole dancing training from Hustlers.

Lopez shared a selfie of herself wearing a camouflage sports bra. In the photo, she also flashed her toned abs.

Lopez posed naked, showing off her killer 51-year-old body, for the cover of her single “In the Morning.”

The “Get Right” singer ushered America into 2021 with a performance during Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve With Ryan Seacrest. She sang a medley of her hits including “In the Morning,” “Dance Again” and “Waiting for Tonight,” plus a cover of Aerosmith’s “Dream On.”

The Shades of Blue alum sang “This Land Is Your Land” at President Joe Biden‘s inauguration in a stunning, all-white ensemble.

Lopez performed at Global Citizen’s Vax Live concert while wearing a neon bodysuit, singing a rendition of her hit “Ain’t Your Mama.” At one point, she brought out her own mom, Guadalupe Rodríguez, to duet with her on the Neil Diamond song “Sweet Caroline.”

The Enough star returned to music with the single “Cambia El Paso” featuring Rauw Alejandro. “The song is about change and not being afraid to take the step,” she said of the song during an episode of SiriusXM’s Pitbull’s Globalization show. “You gotta live. You gotta be yourself. You got to be happy. And that’s what the record’s about.”

For her first red carpet appearance with Affleck after their reunion, Lopez wore a white Georges Hobeika gown with a plunging neckline trimmed in crystals.

The Shades of Blue alum wore a sheer Tom Ford gown to the premiere of her Netflix documentary, Halftime. Lopez accessorized the look with sparkling Lorraine Schwartz diamond earrings.
