“This is my face”: Jennifer Lopez’s no makeup photos show her beautiful natural look

Jennifer Lopez has undoubtedly spent her whole adult life in the public eye. The 53-year-old has always known she wants to be famous, and it didn’t take her long to jump on the celebrity train and shoot for the stars.

Lopez has done it all, from acting and singing in musicals to dancing, serving as a judge on American Idol, and making numerous film appearances. Along the way, she raised two gorgeous children and was married three times.

In addition, Jennifer is a real beauty since, as a role model, she isn’t embarrassed to show off her natural beauty. In all honesty, we think she looks great.

Everything you need to know about Jennifer Lopez and her family is provided here.

On July 24, 1970, in the Bronx of New York City, Jennifer Lopez was born. Her mother was a stay-at-home mom in a family of Puerto Rican ancestry, while her father was a computer technician.

Lopez had exceptional talent in the arts at a young age. Throughout her childhood, she received instruction in singing and dance, and at the age of 7, she began to perform.

She was raised to be a very resilient young woman. mostly as a result of her parents, who showed her how to “hustle” and persevere in pursuing her goals.

“Growing up in the Bronx really did shape me, because I grew up with not a lot,” Lopez said in a 2020 speech.

“Everything about me; my kind of grit. I never thought about it or described it this way before but it is the heartbeat inside of me that is the Bronx and my upbringing that continues to drive me.

“From very young I never wanted to be put in a box. I wanted to be smart and athletic and sweet and tough and a Tom boy but also very glam That’s why I became an actress and performer because you get to be a lot of different things.”

As a teenager, Lopez was confident that life in the spotlight was for her.

Lopez began appearing in theater musicals when she was just 16 years old. She played a supporting role in the 1986 film My Little Girl, and four years later, after appearing in 63 episodes of In Living Color as a Fly Girl, she achieved success on television.

Lopez had followed her parents’ counsel and never given up on her dream. Having said that, she and her mother, Guadalupe, had a contentious argument over her professional choices prior to her European breakthrough and television appearances.

Lopez once had to spend the night on a sofa inside her dancing class because her parents didn’t approve of her decision to pursue a career in show business. She made the decision to leave the house in rebellion.

“My mom and I butted heads,’” Lopez mentioned. “I didn’t want to go to college — I wanted to try dance full-time. So she and I had a break.”

“I started sleeping on the sofa in the dance studio. I was homeless, but I told her, ‘This is what I have to do.’ A few months later, I landed a job dancing in Europe. When I got back, I booked In Living Color. I became a Fly Girl and moved to L.A. It all happened in a year.”

After finding fame on television, Lopez’s career advanced at the speed of light. She starred in the well-liked 1995 movie My Family, and in the Robin Williams-starrer Jack directed by Francis Ford Coppola the following year.

She was chosen to portray pop artist Selena Quintillana-Perez in the film Selena two years later, in 1997. She received rave reviews from critics and audiences, and Lopez received a Golden Globe nomination for her work.

“When I first came on the scene, I wasn’t trying to be the size zero model or say I wasn’t Latin and change my name, I was Jennifer Lopez,” she explained.

“I had a big butt, I embraced that, but I didn’t just wanna be the Latin actress or the one who played those roles. I wanted to do different roles.”

Several more film credits followed in the 1990s. However, in 1999, Jennifer Lopez took a leap of faith and moved into a different field when she launched her singing career and released her debut album.

“I remember feeling comfortable up there and in my own skin, and that performing came naturally to me,” she said of the experience in an interview.

After her performance in the mentioned biopic Selena, Lopez knew she wanted to pursue a singing career.

“It was a great thing for [Selena Quintillana-Perez] to be my mentor, in a way, and to teach me so much about, yes, how to navigate this business, but also how to navigate through life,” she said in another interview.

“You never know what’s going to happen. You have to live in the moment, you have to seize the day. And so I decided after that movie to make my first record. And I did.”

 

So how did it go?

Well, Lopez had only just arrived home when the situation quickly rose to prominence.

Jennifer Lopez’s spouse, divorces, and marriages

Her other hits were Waiting For Tonight, the music video for which earned her a Grammy nomination for Best Dance Recording. Her single If You Had My Love went platinum in just two weeks of sales.

For Lopez, everything was going fantastically well. Her second album, J. Lo, debuted at No. 1 on the pop charts right away, and she was also advancing in her acting career. The Wedding Planner, a romantic comedy that Lopez featured in around that time, became an overnight success at the box office.

Since then, “J Lo” has gained more and more fans all around the world. She has 125 acting credits under her belt and eight studio albums to her name. In addition, Lopez has moved on to production, serving as executive producer on a number of programs including Shades of Blue, World of Dance, and The Fosters.

 

Of course, Jennifer has had her share of difficult times, just like everybody else. That also applies to her personal life, where she has gone through a number of difficult divorces.

In total, Jennifer has been married four times. In 1997, she got married for the first time to Ojani Noa, although their union was short-lived. Then, from 2001 to 2003, she was married to Cris Judd.

But months after the split, Lopez and Latin music icon Marc Anthony started dating quickly. The couple got married in June 2004—just a few weeks after Anthony had successfully finalized his divorce from former Miss Universe Ddayanara Torres.

Max and Emme, the children of Jennifer Lopez

They welcomed twins Max and Emme in 2008. She made it abundantly clear that her twins, or “coconuts,” as she refers to them, were the most significant thing in her life with their birth.

“They just made my life so much better,” Lopez told Today in 2017. “I’m forever grateful that…you know, I didn’t have kids until later and so I almost thought that it wasn’t going to happen for me, so I’m very aware that I was blessed with that. It could have been something different.

“I don’t take it for granted one day.”

Today, Emme and Max are teenagers, and growing up fast. It turns out that they, just like their parents, are very creative. For example, Emme made his singing debut with mum Jennifer during the 2020 Super Bowl halftime show. Max, meanwhile, made his debut as an actor when starring in the film Marry Me.

In 2011, Jennifer and Marc split. It was a tough time for Jennifer, as she revealed that she didn’t have any money. Her label had dropped her, and her album sales weren’t doing well.

“And my business manager was like, ‘Nope, you can’t do anything right now,’” Lopez recalled in an interview.

“I was like, ‘Really?’ He’s like, ‘Yeah, let’s not make any moves right now. Let’s just wait until you can work again.’”

Today, however, money isn’t a problem for “J Lo.” According to Celebrity Net Worth, she has an astonishing net worth of around $400 million.

It was at that point that Jennifer accepted an offer to become a judge on American Idol. She stayed on the show for three seasons before leaving in 2016.

And yet while Jennifer and Marc Anthony were undeniably a hot couple, the stir they caused was nothing compared to what had happened two decades earlier – and is back on again today.

“Bennifer” was a real thing in Hollywood in 2001, after Lopez met juggernaut actor Ben Affleck. The two got engaged in November, 2002, but famously broke things off just days before the ceremony was to be held.

Only, their love story wasn’t finished.

Nearly 20 years after their first engagement, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck got back together. It was in May, 2021, that rumors about the two dating again appeared.

“Ben has been making the effort to make it work with their schedules,” a source explained.

“J.Lo thinks Ben has really stepped up and loves this version of him. It’s comforting to her and she is smitten. They are giddy together and you can tell she’s really happy.”

The couple was seen more and more in public thereafter.

“I love all the love that’s coming my way”

Then in June, it was reported that Lopez and Affleck told their friends that they were officially back together.

‘”I’ve never been better,” Lopez said on The Zane Lowe Show. “I’ve really gotten to a place in my life where I’m great on my own.”

“Once you get to that place, then amazing things happen to you that you never imagine in your life happening again,” she continued. “I love all the love that’s coming my way right now and all of the good wishes… It’s the best time of my life.”

“Bennifer” made their second-time-around red carpet debut at the Venice Film Festival in September, about a month after telling the world about their romance.

In April this year, the two confirmed that they were engaged. And if you’re Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez, apparently one wedding isn’t enough.

In mid-June, the couple surprised fans by announcing that they had gotten married in Las Vegas.

“Last night we flew to Vegas, stood in line for a license with four other couples, all making the same journey to the wedding capital of the world,” Lopez wrote in her newsletter.

“Behind us, two men held hands and held each other. In front of us, a young couple who made the three-hour drive from Victorville on their daughter’s second birthday—all of us wanting the same thing— for the world to recognize us as partners and to declare our love to the world through the ancient and nearly universal symbol of marriage.”

In August, the couple married a second time. About 100 friends and family attended a three-day marriage party at Ben’s estate near Riceboro, Georgia.

In January of last year, Lopez decided to respond to rumors about her having undergone plastic surgery and receiving botox injections. The truth? Well, she hasn’t.

In response to one person’s comments on her Instagram – they stated that she had done work on her face – she responded, “That’s just my face!! For the 500 millionth time, I have never done Botox or any injectables or surgery!!”

“I don’t judge anybody. If you want to do Botox and injectables, that’s fine,” she said after launching her own skincare brand. “But I don’t want people lying on me and saying, ‘Oh, she’s trying to make believe that this stuff works.’”

We know by now that Jennifer Lopez isn’t afraid of showing the real side of herself. While many celebrities opt not to show themselves in the morning before getting ready, “J Lo” has no problem appearing in front of her millions of fans without makeup.

In April, the 53-year-old showed off her morning routine while sitting in a white bathrobe. She didn’t have makeup on – and looked amazing.

“I don’t have any special lighting or anything, this is just morning light. I don’t have any special filters on here, this is my face,” Lopez said in the video.

“As you can see, no makeup yet. I should put myself together,” she added.
