Jennifer Lopez Says It's Time We Take Her Seriously

She’s talked about being seen as a lightweight since her Oscar snub for her role in the 2019 movie Hustlers and about how her crowd-pleasing work hasn’t always gotten critical acclaim by way of Grammys or Academy Awards. “It’s just 20, 25 years of people going, ‘Well, she’s not that great. She’s pretty and she makes cute music, but it’s not really this and that,’” she told Rolling Stone last year. “And I always acted like, ‘Yeah, I’m good. I’m fine. I’m OK.’ But it hurts to not be included. … There is an inner circle, like, ‘We are the great artists.’ And then there’s the pop artists.”

Recent documentaries about white women celebrities in the ’90s and aughts have accused the media of mistreating these stars. Lopez’s new film positions her in a similar — though much rarer — light as a Latina. It might seem like awkward framing from the woman whose lean-in mentality has gotten her into every door in Hollywood and beyond. But the documentary delivers an interesting journey down her decadeslong career.

Actually, it's time she shuts her rotten old cunt, and just goes away!!!

Fucking old twat needs to be put out to pasture.

This bitch.

She has no clue that she has been over for decades.

Sorry, cunt! You're in your mid-50's.

No one gives a shit about you!

This cunt has ZERO talent. She's lucky she was fuckable at one time or she'd be working at Walmart.

This talentless old has been must spend such an obscene fortune on her pr firm, anyone know who she is with?

She should shut up and be thankful she's not called out more for her ghost singing and stealing the vocals and music from several more talented black women.

She hit her creative peak with "Taco-flavored kisses."

She can’t sing. Hell she can’t even lip sync without slathering a little peanut butter on her vagina.

She has how many millions of dollars, and she’s still not satisfied?

If she’d lowered her fees she could have had dramatic roles in independent films or on the stage, but she didn’t want that.

she's a little late to the game OP

I can't even take this statement seriously.

What more does she want? She’s been so successful go so long with very little talent.

And she has no one to blame but herself. Cher became taken seriously as an actress because she took good roles and Madonna began to get taken seriously as an artist because she stated making more critic friendly music.

J. Lo has done neither. She wants to make crap and get Oscars and Grammys and respect for it.

It’s about time Affleck dined at the stripper snatch buffet.

JLo really believes everything Benny Medina tells her ie she’s Oscar worthy - a superstar. That Hustlers movie was a barely elevated Lifetime flick based on a magazine article. Oscar worthy if she was able to sell being in love with Owen Wilson in the execrable Marry Me.

I never in a million years thought she'd be in the running for an Academy Award for Hustlers. She wasn't anything special, though I like her as a rule. She's an excellent dancer.

She's absolutely horrible.

Damn the Wayans brothers for foisting her upon us!

by Anonymousreply 17June 15, 2022 7:16 AM

Can she play Madonna in Madonna’s upcoming movie?

She seems to want to stretch herself - -

Nah she is better suited as Rosie Ruiz the marathon fraud.

Janet gave her her first big break post-In Living Color. She was inspired to get into the biz because of Janet's "Pleasure Principle" video. She could take some lessons in non-fame-whoreiness from Miss Jackson.

JLo is turning into the Latina Viola Davis (minus the awards).

Menopausal women that constantly complain are fucking tiresome and would try the patience of a saint.

Her three ex-husbands would rather she’d have taken marriage seriously.
