REVEALED: Jennifer Lopez's trick to hide nasty cut on her face at 2025 AMAs
Jennifer Lopez hosted the 2025 American Music Awards on Monday night less than two weeks after suffering a nasty injury to her face. The singer, 55, revealed in mid-May that she'd 'hurt' her nose while rehearsing a 'very high-energy' dance number for the annual ceremony. The cut was severe enough to require stitches, which she had done by celebrity plastic surgeon Dr. Jason Diamond. And just weeks later, Lopez's face appeared injury-free as she walked the AMAs red carpet before taking the stage as host. However, a closer look at the photos revealed the truth behind Lopez's seemingly miraculous recovery. Lopez's makeup team used a bandage or a piece of silicone scar tape that closely matched the star's skin tone to hide her stitched up nose. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The bandage or tape was placed across the bridge of her nose and her foundation was carefully applied around it to create a seamless blend. To further pull focus away from the injury site, Lopez' makeup artist Scott Barnes gave her dramatic smokey eyeshadow and large fake lashes. Lopez first sparked concern that her face would not be healed in time for the American Music Awards over the weekend when she posted an overly filtered selfie. She took to her Instagram stories on Saturday to snap a quick photo while sitting inside a vehicle en route to her final rehearsal. Unlike the Kardashians, Lopez isn't known for over filtering her social media photos, which prompted speculation that she was using it to hide her injured nose. But despite her injury, Lopez exuded confidence in her stunning DEFAÏENCE as she worked her angles for red carpet photographers on Monday night. Throughout the hours-long awards show, which was held at the five-star Fontainebleau Las Vegas hotel, Lopez made eight epic outfit changes as host after opening the show with a 'high-energy' dance routine. The opening number was savaged by fans after she kissed both male and female dancers live on air during the performance. The bandage or tape was placed across the bridge of her nose and her foundation was carefully applied around it to create a seamless blend She sang and danced to a six-minute medley of 23 hits by the evening's nominees. While most A-list celebrities including Taylor Swift skipped the event, JLo did her best to single-handedly bring the star power by performing hits including Billie Eilish's Birds of a Feather, Sabrina Carpenter's Espresso, and Beyoncé's Texas Hold 'Em. But she left viewers cringing over the 'disgusting' lip-locking session with her dancers, with some branding it a 'desperate' attempt to make Affleck jealous following their finalized dissolution of their two-year marriage four months ago. Others 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. A source told that Lopez is unbothered by the backlash over her performance. 'JLo followed the direction of her PR and she did exactly what she was told to do for her post-Ben [Affleck] comeback,' the source revealed exclusively. 'She is living her best life and has zero f***s to give right now,' they continued. 'She dealt with so much uncertainty, but she was brave. She did not allow the negative commentary to bring her down. Instead, she kept going and living her life.' Lopez took on hosting duties for this year's ceremony a decade after she first hosted in 2015. During the ceremony, Lopez announced her new 12-date Up All Night Live in Las Vegas residency to be staged at Caesars Palace's The Colosseum. 'Surprise JLovers!' the pop diva wrote on Instagram. 'We're back!' Lopez won't kick off the series of Nevada concerts until December 30, but presale tickets begin as early as June 2 while general tickets go on sale June 6. Her prior Las Vegas residency - All I Have at Planet Hollywood's Zappos Theater - reportedly grossed $101.9M and ran for 121 shows spanning 2016 to 2018. Lopez's announcement came nearly one year after she was 'completely heartsick and devastated' to cancel her 30-date This is Me... Live: The Greatest Hits tour.

Jennifer Lopez suffers nasty face injury after accident on stage
Jennifer Lopez 's plans to host the American Music Awards almost went up in smoke after she suffered a potentially career-altering injury. On Tuesday, the 55-year-old singer and actress revealed in an Instagram Stories post that she had injured her face in the course of rehearsals for the upcoming awards ceremony. The injury was severe enough to require stitches, but Jennifer was in luck, as the celebrity plastic surgeon Dr. Jason Diamond was on hand to take care of her. Jennifer — whose ex-boyfriend Diddy is currently on trial in federal court on racketeering and sex-trafficking charges — first broke the news cryptically with a closeup of her face showing her holding an ice pack over her red nose and eye. 'So this happened,' she wrote. In a follow-up snap, she clarified the extent of her injury and said it happened 'During @amas rehearsals.' The second closeup showed her sans ice pack and with a bloody gash just above the bridge of her nose and slightly to the side. Her red nose also appeared to be swollen after the injury, and she was dressed casually in gray sweats after a day of performing behind the scenes. While an injury to her face could prove to be devastating for her hosting gig — as well as her career in general — she got some help from a popular medical provider in the nick of time. A third post on Tuesday revealed that the rehearsal mishap had happened a week earlier, and show that she was almost completely healed. The Hustlers star showed off a soft smile as she posed for a photo next to Dr. Jason Diamond, the Beverly Hills–based facial plastic surgeon who was one of the former stars of the reality series Dr. 90210. Diamond, who wore a T-shirt advertising some of his products, beamed next to Lopez as she showed off his handiwork. She appeared to have some mild discoloration over her nose where the gash had been, but for the most part she looked like her old self, and with nearly two more weeks to heal before the broadcast. 'Thank you for stitching me up Dr. Diamond,' she wrote in her caption. 'A week later and a whole lotta ice, I'm good as new.' Last month, it was announced that Jennifer would be returning to host the AMAs a decade after she last helmed the awards show. 'We are thrilled to welcome Jennifer Lopez back to host the American Music Awards,' Jay Penske, the CEO of Dick Clark Productions, said at the time via a press release. '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.'
