J.Lo Reveals Facial Injury—Requiring Stitches—Sustained During AMAs Rehearsal
"So this just happened," J.Lo captioned a photo of herself holding an ice pack up to her face. She then revealed a cut on her nose and added "during AMAs rehearsal."
J.Lo went on to say that her recovery took about a week, and required stitches from Dr. Diamond: "Thank you for stitching me up Dr Diamond," she wrote. "A week later and a whole lotta ice, I'm good as new."
J.Lo's return to the AMAs as host was announced last month, with a press release saying "We are thrilled to welcome Jennifer Lopez back to host the American Music Awards. Jennifer's incredible talent and incomparable stage presence make her the ideal host of the show. We know she will bring her one-of-a-kind energy to the official kick off celebration of summer."
FYI, this is J.Lo's second time hosting the AMAs. She hosted for the first time in 2015, opening the show with "Waiting for Tonight" along with an epic dancing medley.

The Films and Shows You Should Be Streaming in August 2025
A new era of streaming selections is here. For the past several years, our monthly column, the Nerd's Watch, has been the place to find out all the best genre titles coming to the biggest streaming services. It wasn't a complete list. We just posted the titles we think you'd care about, but it was still long, and frankly, it was hard to pick out the best of the best. Months before the new remake with Jack Black and Paul Rudd, revisit the iconic camp classic with Ice Cube and Jennifer Lopez. It wasn't meant to be a camp classic, but it is now. Groundhog Day is one of those movies that just gets better and better the more you watch it. It's so expertly put together, so funny, so heartfelt. Just a true modern classic. We're onto our third Jurassic Park trilogy, but the original—Jurassic Park, The Lost World, and the underrated Jurassic Park III—are all reemerging on Netflix this month. Just in time for its 40th anniversary, the John Hughes comedy about two nerds who create a woman in a computer is popping up on two streamers. It's incredibly dated but also, thanks to John Hughes, still pretty delightful. Call them the Paul Walker years. The first seven Fast and Furious movies are all coming to Netflix (as well as Hobbs and Shaw), and you can make an argument that it was the passing of Walker, during Furious 7, that derailed the whole thing. Hopefully things get back up to speed in the future, but at least we'll always have these movies (and Hobbs and Shaw, unfortunately). The star-studded adaptation of the iconic Douglas Adams novel is nowhere near as good as the source material, but is anything? That the movie shared even a sliver of the genius and fun of the novel makes this one worth watching. Remember when Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Chloë Grace Moretz co-starred in one of the best superhero movies ever, alongside Nicolas Cage, and directed by Matthew Vaughn? Well, if not, now is the time to watch it again. J.J. Abrams writes and directs this Amblin-inspired tale of a group of kids who film a train crash, only to realize it's at the center of mysterious happenings around town. I've been meaning to revisit this one. One of the weirdest movies you'll see this year is this Stephen King adaptation, produced by James Wan and directed by Osgood Perkins. It's about a family tied in with a toy monkey that kills people seemingly at random. It's super violent and super funny. I'm writing this one more for myself than anyone else. Stranger Things star Finn Wolfhard co-directed this camp-based slasher movie that looks like a lot of fun. I missed it in theaters but definitely will check it out on streaming. Please refer to the above video. From Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck, the directors of Captain Marvel, comes this 'freaky' retro anthology starring Pedro Pascal, Ben Mendelsohn, Dominique Thorne, and other actors who aren't in Marvel movies. You may have missed it, but earlier this year, A24 released this very unique and gorgeous film about a seemingly regular rural town that's thrown into peril because of a group of nearby creatures. Creatures that one of the young women in the town becomes friends with. Willem Dafoe is among the stars. It'll be about a year until we next see James Gunn's DC Universe on the big screen, but before then, it'll be very active on HBO Max. First up, season two of the irreverent Peacemaker starring John Cena. It ties directly into the events of Superman and pushes the whole narrative forward. Have you ever wanted to know more about Wakanda in the Marvel Cinematic Universe? Well, this new animated series is just the ticket. I feel like I'm in Edge of Tomorrow with how I always repeat myself, but here it goes again. Every time Edge of Tomorrow, the Tom Cruise-Emily Blunt time loop sci-fi action film, appears on a streamer, I will let you know. If you stream it, we will watch. It's not quite Edge of Tomorrow, but if you want another super solid Tom Cruise sci-fi film, this one from Joseph Kosinski, the director of Tron: Legacy, Top Gun: Maverick, and F1, well, here you go. After a season with equal parts character and carnage, the video game adaptation starring Anthony Mackie is back. And, this season, it's all about the car battle royale that made the series so popular. One of the more underrated films of 2024 was this incredibly visceral action film starring and directed by Dev Patel. Highly recommended. Spike Jonze directs, Charlie Kaufman writes, and Nicolas Cage stars alongside Meryl Streep, Chris Cooper, and others. Not many movies could live up to that incredible roster, but this one does. There have been seven Paranormal Activity movies, and the first six (1, 2, 3, 4, Ghost Dimension, and Marked Ones) are all coming to Paramount+. Some are better than others, but it's a really strong, scary, found-footage franchise. Jim Carrey stars as a man who lives a pretty great life until he figures out he's the star of the world's largest reality TV series. A modern classic that gets better and better with age. One of those 1990s slashers that came out in the wake of Scream and has its fans, as well as its haters. We're in the first camp, what about you? Weeks after becoming probably the first indie horror movie to get its own corn maze at San Diego Comic-Con, the horror movie with the perfect, direct title is coming to streaming. Want more io9 news? Check out when to expect the latest Marvel, Star Wars, and Star Trek releases, what's next for the DC Universe on film and TV, and everything you need to know about the future of Doctor Who.

Jennifer Lopez Wears $60 TKEES Flip-Flops: Shop Them Here
Wake up, everyone—Jennifer Lopez just dropped some new vacation pics! On August 1, took to Instagram to share some snapshots from her trip to Egypt, and let me tell ya, she looks ️🔥. More importantly: In multiple pics, she's rocking a pair of minimalist leather TKEES flip-flops that are (a) chic, (b) still in stock, and (c) actually affordable. A miracle! Here she is wearing 'em with a swimsuit and cover-up: And again with a cute lil sundress. Talk about versatility!! This isn't the first time has stepped out in these sweet metallic sandals, either. Just a few weeks ago, she was spotted wearing the same pair of TKEES while out and about in right around the same time, Jennifer Aniston sported a pair of brown TKEES with baggy jeans while walking around L.A. Need more evidence that TKEES are the It-girl sandal of choice? Kylie Jenner was also seen wearing a pair of black TKEES Lily Liners in Italy in early July (which, btw, are available on Amazon!). What I love about TKEES: the soft Brazilian leather, the minimalist silhouette, and—best of all—the cushioned insole for extra comfort with each step. TKEES are available to shop on the brand's website, as well as from Amazon, Saks Fifth Avenue, Revolve, Zappos, Bloomingdale's, Nordstrom, and more. There you'll find flip-flops in tons of styles (including the celeb-approved Lily sandal), including shades ranging from nudes and pigments to glitters and glosses. However! If you're looking to get exact Lily Metallics in Blink, then you'll likely have to buy them direct from TKEES, as they're sold out almost everywhere else! Flip-flop szn isn't over yet, so go score a pair of these cuties while you still can.

Watch: Renee Rapp releases album, performs 'Shy' on 'Late Show'
1 of 5 | Reneé Rapp arrives for the American Music Awards in May. She released her second album Friday. File Photo by James Atoa/UPI | License Photo Aug. 1 (UPI) -- Renee Rapp is back with new music. The singer, 25, performed her song "Shy" on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert Thursday. The track appears on her new album Bite Me, which dropped Friday. Rapp's performance included an elaborate set. She began singing seated on a desk inside an apparent apartment. "Baby ruin my life. I want it bad I swear. And I'm really not scared, just a little bit shy," she sings. As the song continues she climbs through the window and onto a fire escape. Her album also includes the songs "Leave Me Alone," "Mad," "Why is She Still Here?" "Sometimes," "Kiss it Kiss it," "Good Girl," "I Can't Have You Around Me Anymore," "At Least I'm Hot," "I Think I Like You Better When You're Gone," "That's So Funny" and "You'd Like That Wouldn't You." "The whole time making this I felt equal parts confident and equal parts embarrassed," she said in a post announcing the record. "I wanted to be brutally honest but I didn't want to be judged too hard. I wanted to poke-fun but I also wanted to be taken seriously." She said that her sophomore album represents a contrast from her first, adding that it was "written for me and was made for you." The release arrives ahead of her upcoming tour, which kicks off in Colorado on Sept. 23 and winds down in March in London. She released her album Snow Angel in 2023.
