For the latest updates, follow us on Instagram @ Performing iconic songs including 'On the Floor,' 'Ain't Your Mama' and 'Dance Again,' Lopez sizzled with her high energy and killer dance moves. Although I was disappointed 'Jenny From the Block' did not have its own moment to shine, Lopez still performed her 2002 hit single as a medley with Queen's 'We Will Rock You.' A post shared by Jennifer Lopez (@jlo) To celebrate her 56th year, she sang 'Birthday,' the single released on July 24, which was much appreciated by the crowd. The superstar thanked her fans and urged them to love one another and to pursue what they love. Lopez also joked about the UAE heat. 'I like it hot!' she said, fanning herself. With multiple outfit changes and quick intervals, the show switched from high energy songs to slow ballads and medleys. Lopez paid tribute to her Latin culture and performed some of her hit Spanish songs including 'Que Hiciste' and 'Si Una Vez.' She sang while dancing the flamenco in an outfit inspired by the traditional traje de flamenca, a dress traditionally worn by women at festivals in Andalusia, Spain. The hit singer is no stranger to the Gulf and turned heads in April at the F1 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix in Jeddah. And last November she hit the stage at the '1001 Seasons of Elie Saab' event in Riyadh.

Jennifer Lopez beams after shopping for TWO HOURS in Warsaw as she spends thousands of dollars on luxury items
Jennifer Lopez enjoyed retail therapy while taking advantage of some free time during her travels abroad. The hitmaker, 56, who suffered a wardrobe malfunction during her Friday night show in Warsaw, went on a shopping spree the next day. The I'm Real artist brought her star power, showcasing her dancer's leg while stepping out in a vibrant red mini-dress with capped sleeves and a belted A-line skirt. The Glamour Woman of the Year award winner wore red kitten heels embellished with gold grommets, and carried a little red Valentino purse. Her long highlighted locks were styled straight, and she wore natural looking makeup with a neutral lip behind her aviator sunglasses. JLo, who celebrate her 56th birthday on Thursday, smiled at fans as she headed inside the luxury goods store Vitak, perhaps to buy herself a present. According to a snap in the store's Instagram Stories, she posed for a photo while trying on a red Bottega Veneta coat. The Unstoppable star spent about two hours in the store, and when it came time to pay for her various purchases, she pulled out what appeared to be a black American Express credit card. If the large bags members of her security team carried out to their waiting SUV, the Feel the Light singer will have to make some more room in her suitcases for her new purchases. After working up an appetite at the store, Lopez and some of her crew went to lunch at the Raffles Hotel. While her team enjoyed a variety of drinks, the Delola founder, who says she enjoys an occasional cocktail, was seen sipping out of her own bedazzled water bottle with JLo written on it. According to a May 2024 article in Women's Health, the busy singer keeps her energy up by drinking a minimum of seven glasses of water a day. She also eats healthfully, choosing organic fruits and vegetables along with lean proteins such and poultry, fish, eggs and grass-fed beef. Lopez showed some of that energy, and her style, sharing a video clip of her soundcheck in Warsaw to get fans excited for Tuesday night's show in Abu Dhabi. If the large bags members of her security team carried out to their waiting SUV, the Feel the Light singer will have to make some more room in her suitcases for her new purchases 'Let's get ready to Dance Again Abu Dhabi ✨' she wrote next to the clip. The ex of Marc Anthony and Alex Rodriguez was looking chic in a cream toned dress with a V-neck, three-quarter length sleeves and a pleated skirt. The Atlas actress wore a pair of brown, high-heel Roman sandals and her hair was styled straight. She was glammed up with plenty of dramatic makeup. 'Woohoo go get 'em! You are knocking it out of the park with this tour Jen ❤️' wrote one fan, expressing their excitement. Another stated bluntly, 'We are so ready for the show✨ UP ALL NIGHT!' Lopez's tour is nearing its end and it includes some locations she's never performed in before. After the performance in Abu Dhabi, where she performed earlier this year, she will travel to Sharm El Sheikh in Egypt for the first time. Other new cities include Yerevan, Armenia; Tashkent, Uzbekistan; and Almaty, Kazakhstan, where she will rap up the tour on August 10. Toward the end of the year she will sing in Las Vegas where she used to have a residency.

Jennifer Lopez Praised For Soldiering On After On-Stage Wardrobe Malfunction
Jennifer Lopez chose to lean into the unpredictable over the weekend when she suffered a wardrobe malfunction live on stage. On Friday night, J-Lo was performing in Warsaw, Poland, where she was surprised by her backing band and fans with an impromptu rendition of Happy Birthday To You, to commemorate her turning 56 a day earlier. Unfortunately, as she made her way back on stage, it seemed she got ready in a bit of a hurry, as she lost her skirt in the process. After laughing off the wardrobe malfunction – which left her standing in front of the crowd in her stage undergarments – she eventually gave up on trying to reattach the skirt, seemingly throwing it off stage as she continued with the show. Clips of the incident quickly began doing the rounds online, with the Love Don't Cost A Thing singer receiving praise from fans for handling the incident like a pro… 'I'm glad that they reinforced that costume,' she quipped. 'And I'm glad I had underwear on!' Jen is currently in the middle of her limited Up All Night tour, which has so far taken her to territories as varied as Spain, Hungary, Romania and Turkey, with shows still scheduled in Abu Dhabi, Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan in the coming weeks. During her tour, the two-time Grammy nominee has been premiering new material, including a song that appears to allude to her very public divorce from ex-husband Ben Affleck. The last two years have seen Jennifer taking a number of both personal and professional knocks, including her split from her Oscar-winning ex and a muted response to her album This Is Me… Now and its accompanying visual album. During a conversation in Interview magazine, she said the situation 'was like my whole fucking world exploded', explaining: 'It feels lonely, unfamiliar, scary. It feels sad. It feels desperate. 'But when you sit in those feelings and go, 'These things are not going to kill me', it's like actually, I am capable of joy and happiness all by myself.'

JLo in Abu Dhabi: Everything you need to know before the big show
Get ready, Abu Dhabi, the queen of sparkle, sass and all-out showstoppers is about to take the stage. Jennifer Lopez brings her Up All Night: Live in 2025 tour to Etihad Arena tonight, and whether you're there for the dance-floor anthems, the high-octane choreography or that viral skirt toss, you're in for a night of pure spectacle. From bedazzled bodysuits to beats that shake the arena, this is no ordinary concert – it's a full-scale JLo production, and it's going to be loud, glamorous and unforgettable. To help you plan the perfect night, we've rounded up everything from where to fuel up pre-show to the best spots to crash post-concert. Because while she may be 'Jenny from the Block,' tonight she's running the whole capital. Last week in Warsaw, she reminded the world why she's still that girl. Mid-performance, while thanking her fans, the gold glittery skirt she was wearing snapped off. One second it was there, the next it was on the floor. Creating a viral moment, she picked it up and threw it into the crowd like a party favour. One fan went home with couture, the rest went wild. This week the 'love don't cost a thing' singer is bringing that same energy to Etihad Arena for the only Middle East stop on her Up All Night: Live in 2025 world tour. But Jennifer Lopez is no stranger to the UAE. She performed in Dubai in 2012 and again in 2014. Earlier this year she headlined Saadiyat Nights in Abu Dhabi, with an open-air show that left fans screaming for more. This time, she's taking it indoors with a full-scale arena production. Doors open at 6pm, and if you're driving, plan ahead. The smart move is to make a full night of it. If you are heading home straight after the show, do yourself a favour and pack a snack, make a playlist, and accept the fact that you might be in traffic longer than JLO was on stage. But hey, if the post-show magic holds, the cars around you might get loud and hoot in harmony to Jenny from the Block .
