Jennifer Lopez enjoys a wild night out in Las Vegas as she parties on an open-top bus - after THAT cringe-worthy lesbian kiss at the AMAs
And Jennifer Lopez shows no signs of stopping her latest wild antics as she was filmed partying and singing On The Floor on an open-top bus in Las Vegas later that evening.
The singer and actress, 55, who recently divorced ex husband Ben Affleck, was surrounded by men holding her up as she stood on a chair waving her arms in the air.
After declaring she's excited to have a 'free and happy' summer, the A-list wore her merch to promote her upcoming Las Vegas residency tour Up All Night Live as she partied without a care in the world.
Fans have questioned whether Jennifer's bizarre behaviour recently is a 'desperate' attempt to make ex Ben jealous following their finalised dissolution of their two-year marriage four months ago.

She was savaged over her cringe-worthy opening performance at the 2025 AMAs after the 'disgusting' lip-locking session with her dancers.
Viewers blasted her for going 'too far' with her girl-on-girl kiss, with one X user declaring: 'Jennifer Lopez has lost the plot.'
'Another viewer asked: 'Why is Jennifer Lopez kissing everyone at the AMAs?' while another chimed in: 'Just looked up from my phone and JENNIFER LOPEZ IS KISSING A GIRL?!?!'
Jennifer was called 'disgusting' and 'desperate' by some unimpressed viewers.
For the raunchy stage show, she sported her signature golden-blonde locks in a waist-length, straight style with a center part.
The songstress began her set by singing an excerpt of her 2012 song Dance Again.
She then transitioned into a medley of viral hits from the past year, including Chappell Roan's HOT TO GO, Morgan Wallen and Post Malone's I Had Some Help, and Tinashe's Nasty.
Jennifer took on hosting duties for this year's ceremony a decade after she first hosted in 2015.

It appears Jennifer has kickstarted her 'free and happy' summer since her high-profile divorce and amid ex-boyfriend Diddy's trafficking trial - following her string of carefree outings
One of her glamorous looks of the evening was a beaded silver dress with a halter neck design.
It appears Jennifer has kickstarted her 'free and happy' summer since her high-profile divorce and amid ex-boyfriend Diddy's trafficking trial - following her string of carefree outings.
The star is headlining WorldPride during June's Pride Month in Washington, D.C, and Jennifer can't wait to 'make people sing and dance' over the coming weeks.
The Jenny from the Block hitmaker told People: 'I'm excited to tour. I'm excited first to go do Pride. I'm super excited about that. I'm working on that show right now too as we speak, and crafting the tour as well. I'm excited to get back out there.'
'It seems like a perfect summer to celebrate being free and being happy', she added.
'Just everything in my life right now just feels really healthy and good, and I'm ready to get out there and make people sing and dance and have a good time. That's always my goal.'
Comments Jennifer made about ex-boyfriend Diddy in a 2002 interview recently resurfaced amid the music mogul's bombshell sex trafficking trial.
The rapper, 55, is currently on trial after pleading not guilty to allegations of sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion; racketeering conspiracy; and transportation to engage in prostitution.
The steamy, unexpected moment left fans floored
A year after their 2001 split, Jennifer reflected on the romance in a Primetime: Special Edition interview with Diane Sawyer who asked her if she was 'afraid' during the relationship.
She replied she was not frightened and insisted the relationship was merely not a good fit for her.
The video, posted by the Instagram account feltitagain last week, was captioned 'Remember this J-lo interview # Jenniferlopez #jlo and #pdiddy #seancombs #puffy #hoodmemes #hoodnews #plot #love.'
The topic of Diddy came up in the interview with a montage of the pair during happier times as Sawyer lamented in a voiceover, 'And what about Sean Combs, Puffy, P Diddy, the man who courted controversy if not outright danger? He always seemed to be the one in control. We wondered, looking at the girl on the red carpet, who was she?'
Diane then asks Jennifer, 'Was she afraid?', referring to the Maid In Manhattan star.
'Um, no, I don't think she was afraid, I just think that I, at that time was uh, cared very deeply for Sean, and you know we just... didn't have the same kind of ideals about life and family and stuff like that,' she said. 'It just wasn't a good relationship for me. It didn't have so much to do with him as it had to do with me at the time.
'I had to learn to care about myself a little bit more and put up certain boundaries of what I would accept and wouldn't accept because really he was just being himself.
'He wasn't doing anything wrong, and he felt like he loved me very much and I know he did and I felt like the same way. So if I was unhappy in some way, then I was the one who had to do something. Not him. He was doing everything he wanted to do.'
The pair's romance first began in 1999 while Jennifer was preparing for the release of her debut album, On The 6, which Sean helped produce.
During their relationship, Jennifer debuted her most famous outfit during the Grammy Awards ceremony in 2000. The green silk chiffon dress from Versace was super low-cut, barely covering her cleavage.
But the couple also hit headlines after Jennifer and Sean were arrested on December 27, 1999 following a shooting at a nightclub.
The singer and then-boyfriend Diddy were at Club New York in Manhattan on December 27, 1999, when gunfire broke out inside the venue.
The music mogul was accused of firing a gun in the shootout that left three people injured, including Natania Reuben, who was struck in the face but miraculously survived.
Both JLo and Diddy were arrested in relation to the incident, but Jennifer was not charged and Diddy was later acquitted.
Jennifer broke up with the rap mogul a month before his trial was slated to begin in 2001. He was ultimately acquitted on all charges.
Diddy's ex-girlfriend Cassandra 'Cassie' Ventura delivered horrifyingly graphic testimonies the first week of the trial alleging that the music mogul physically and psychologically abused her over more than a decade from 2007-2018.
The 38-year-old detailed the regular beatings she allegedly experienced, the rapper's alleged use of blackmail and scare tactics to coerce and manipulate, depraved sex acts she claims she was forced to participate in - and the medical toll she suffered as a result.
A male escort allegedly hired by Combs to engage in a variety of sexual acts with Ventura during his notorious 'freak off' parties also took the stand to explain how 'Diddy' purportedly pushed Ventura into unprotected sex with strangers and orchestrated various sexual encounters for his own pleasure.
In response, lawyers for Combs sought to portray Ventura as a willing and eager participant in the music mogul's sexual lifestyle. His defence says that, while he is guilty of domestic violence, nothing he did amounted to a criminal enterprise.

Devil Wears Prada 2 major spoiler as Anne Hathaway and Stanley Tucci film telling scene
Anne Hathaway and Stanley Tucci sent fans into meltdown Wednesday when they were spotted reuniting on the New York City set of The Devil Wears Prada 2. The Princess Diaries star, 42 — who recently teased a major twist for the long-awaited sequel — slipped back into her role as Andy Sachs, while Tucci, 64, once again embodied fan-favorite Nigel. Hathaway confirmed last month that filming is officially underway, with the sequel slated for a May 2026 release — exactly 20 years after the original became a cultural phenomenon. Also back for round two? Meryl Streep and Emily Blunt, who are both reprising their iconic roles. Plot details are still tightly guarded, but the new set photos speak volumes. Dressed head-to-toe in black, Hathaway's Andy leans on Tucci's Nigel as the two attend a funeral scene in a cemetery — a chilling hint that fans may be saying goodbye to a beloved character. True to her fashionista roots, Andy stepped out in a sleek black dress with a sheer neckline detail, layered beneath a sharp trench coat. Her brunette waves fall loose with a soft curl, while oversized designer shades help her keep a low profile amid the somber setting. Nigel, ever the style icon, cut a sharp figure in a tailored black suit, complete with glasses that gave him a serious, contemplative edge. At one point, he leans on an umbrella while walking in what appears to be the funeral procession, pausing only to support Andy at her side. Fans may be mourning a major character, and the pressure is on for a sequel that lives up to the original. The original Devil Wears Prada wasn't just a box office smash — it cemented itself as a cultural touchstone, turning Streep's Miranda Priestly into an instantly iconic character and inspiring a generation of fashion lovers to whisper, 'That's all.' With Streep, Hathaway, Blunt, and Tucci all back in the mix — and a new roster of A-listers joining the chaos — the sequel is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated movie events in years. David Frankel — who helmed the original 2006 smash — is back in the director's chair for the sequel. British actor Kenneth Branagh (left) appears to be enjoying his role as Miranda Priestly's (played by Meryl Streep, right) third husband during filming for the forthcoming Devil Wears Prada sequel He'll be joined by a star-studded cast that includes Simone Ashley, Lucy Liu, Pauline Chalamet, Kenneth Branagh, Tracie Thoms, B.J. Novak, and Justin Theroux. According to IMDb, the premise 'follows Miranda Priestly's struggle against Emily Charlton, her former assistant turned rival executive, as they compete for advertising revenue amidst declining print media while Miranda nears retirement.' By the time the sequel hits theaters in May 2026, it will mark 20 years since the first film debuted — a movie that not only raked in $326.7 million worldwide on a modest $35–$41 million budget, but also became a pop culture phenomenon. The original scored two Academy Award nominations, including Best Actress for Meryl Streep, who also took home the Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Motion Picture Musical or Comedy. It earned five BAFTA nods, three Golden Globe nominations overall, and cemented itself as one of the defining comedies of the 2000s. During an interview with WWD, Hathaway - who is also set to star in The Princess Diaries 3 - opened up about reprising previous roles. 'I was so beautifully cared for on both of those films,' she recalled, while adding that she had been young when making both The Devil Wears Prada and The Princess Diaries. 'I was so guided and looked after and cared for by the communities that made both of those films in particular, each of their directors, Garry Marshall and David Frankel.' She added, 'I'm so excited that now I can do that for other people, that now I have the knowledge and the experience and the confidence to take care of other people on sets in which I'm looked at as a leader.'

Disney's new ESPN app reaches for sports fans outside cable TV
LOS ANGELES, Aug 20 - Walt Disney's (DIS.N), opens new tab ESPN will deliver its full range of sports programming outside of pay TV for the first time starting on Thursday, when the network debuts an app designed to be a hub for live games and personalized news, stats and highlights. The ESPN app is Disney's effort to capture some of the tens of millions of customers that the pioneering sports channel has lost since 2010 during the streaming TV revolution. ESPN executives said they have tailored the new offering, which is far broader than the limited ESPN+ app launched in 2018, to cater to the tastes of today's sports fans. "We know that fans don't just want to watch," ESPN Chairman Jimmy Pitaro told reporters. "They want an experience. They want to interact." The app will offer more than 47,000 live events each year from the NFL, NBA, WNBA, NHL, college football, tennis, golf and other sports. It will cost $30 per month. An introductory offer will include ad-supported versions of the Disney+ and Hulu streaming services for free. Fans can enter their favorite teams and sports for customization such as a personalized version of the "SportsCenter" news and recap show. Artificial intelligence will generate narration based on the voices of ESPN anchors. A new feature called "Verts," or scroll-ready, vertical video highlights, also can be tailored. Stats for a user's fantasy players will be displayed next to live games. And an ESPN Bet tab will show live, settled and upcoming bets for users who have linked their betting accounts. Disney Chief Executive Bob Iger has called the app "a sports fan's dream." Industry analysts see it as a chance for the company to pick up fans who do not subscribe to cable, and they do not expect it will pull masses from pay TV. ESPN was available in 100 million homes through pay TV in 2010. In July of this year, that number stood at about 61 million. "It's another step in Disney's pivot to (streaming) and the importance to streaming to the overall company," said MoffettNathanson analyst Robert Fishman. ESPN will promote the app extensively. Actor John Cena will star in commercials that stress "All of ESPN. All in One Place." Pay television will "remain a big part" of ESPN's business, Pitaro said. For the quarter that ended in June, ESPN accounted for $1 billion of Disney's $4.6 billion in operating income, or nearly 22%. Most of ESPN's revenue came from fees paid by cable and satellite distributors and from advertising. Subscribers to pay TV will have access to the new ESPN app. Pitaro said the company hoped to drive all of its customers to the app "because that's by far the best, the most holistic experience."

Maury Povich calls out wife Connie Chung over dating history
Maury Povich called out his wife Connie Chung over her fling with an A-list lothario. Legendary daytime talk show host Povich made his grand return to the media in March with a new podcast. Chung joined her husband's show, On Par with Maury Povich, for its debut episode to discuss her latest memoir, which details her life as a trailblazing television news anchor and the unbelievable stories that came with it. The two recalled the beginning of their relationship while they were working in the broadcast news industry. Povich told his viewers that when Chung moved to California to anchor the news, she became a 'big star' and 'kind of messed around with stars'. 'Oh! You didn't?' Chung fired back. Povich burst out laughing and denied the accusation, but his wife speculated that he could 'name a few' celebrity women that he had been with during his early days as an on-air journalist. 'No, I didn't mess around with them. I knew them. You messed around with them. Okay, should I start talking?' he continued before revealing that his wife had a relationship with Hollywood icon Warren Beatty. Povich then joked that his sister used to say that 'every woman who came to California had to go through him [Beatty]. It was the immigration system.' Chung laughed and said that Beatty loved Povich's sister, Lynn, who was also a titan in the news industry, serving as Newsweek's first female senior editor. Chung added that she wasn't the only woman journalist that Beatty loved. Povich continued to recollect on his wife's dating history, revealing that she also 'messed with an Eagle,' quickly clarifying that he was referring to a member of the band and not a player on the Philadelphia Eagles. Chung confirmed the romance and admitted that when she met the band member, whose name she concealed, she didn't know he was a part of the iconic rock band. She recalled that when she went to the musician's home, he told her that he played in a band. Chung then boldly asked him to play her one of his songs, and he promptly began playing 'Hotel California' on the piano. Povich then clarified that his wife's escapades occurred when the two were merely dating and hadn't yet made their relationship exclusive. His wife made sure to get a few jabs in herself, claiming that Povich, 'couldn't even remember the first names let alone the last names' of the women he was with as a young broadcast journalist. The two went on to discuss their marriage, and Povich joked that Chung had been 'really [expletive]' to him during the release of her memoir. Chung released Connie: A Memoir last fall, which detailed her career as the first Asian woman to break into the broadcast news industry. Chung was the first woman and Asian person to co-anchor the CBS Evening News. She famously interviewed former President Richard Nixon during the Watergate scandal. Chung started her journalism career at CBS in 1971 in Washington DC and worked under Walter Cronkite. A few years later, she moved to Los Angeles to anchor local news.
