Braless Jennifer Lopez, 55, suffers a nip slip in a plunging peach dress before swiftly changing into a high neck white gown at benefit concert
Jennifer Lopez suffered a wardrobe malfunction on Monday as she attended the Ring Them Bells benefit concert in New York City. The singer, 55, was one of several performers who took to the stage at the Stephen Sondheim Theatre to celebrate songwriter John Kander's 98th birthday. And she ensured all eyes would be on her as she made her arrival at the venue clad in a plunging peach gown with feathered sleeves. Unfortunately, braless J Lo ended up revealing a bit too much as her dress pulled to the side as she walked, resulting in a nip slip. Yet she didn't let the mishap get her down as she continued to confidently strut into the performance before changing into another eye-catching look. There was no chance of a nip slip in her second gown, with Jennifer leaving the theatre in a striking white high neck dress with jewel embellishment on the collar. The quirky dress did show off her tanned and toned pins, however, with a structured asymmetric hemline and sweeping train. She added to the glamour with a silver clutch bag and towering pair of platform heels. The Ring Them Bells benefit was hosted by Alan Cumming and saw a host of performers take to the stage to showcase the life and career of Kander - who composed shows including Cabaret, Chicago, and Kiss of the Spider Woman. Jennifer's inclusion in the concert followed on from reports that she is 'ready to date again' following her divorce from Ben Affleck. 'Jennifer wants to be in love again,' a source told Though she has been linked to Yellowstone actor Kevin Costner after they spent time at the iconic western apparel store Kemo Sabe in Aspen Colorado over Christmas, she is interested in another Yellowstone type. 'She had a crush on Rip Wheeler from Yellowstone and wants a guy like that, someone who can have her back and make sure she is OK,' the pal noted. 'She wants to be put first and made to feel special. 'Her life is a lot, she needs a man who can handle all that and still love her unconditionally like the way Rip love Beth Dutton.' There was no chance of a nip slip in her second gown, with Jennifer leaving the theatre in a striking white high neck dress with jewel embellishment on the collar In an odd twist, Ben is friends with the actor who plays Rip: Cole Hauser. They starred together in Good Will Hunting. Meanwhile, Jennifer is busy with her career. 'She wants this summer to be amazing after a tough start to the year,' said a friend to First she is filming her new movie Office Romance in New Jersey with Ted Lasso star Brett Goldstein. Then she will perform on June 6, 2025 at the World Pride Music Festival in Washington, DC. And she will celebrate her 56th birthday, which falls on July 24, in style with her twins Max and Emme. Though Jennifer had a terrific 2024 with her career - Atlas was a major success - she was put in a negative light after ending her marriage to Ben. She was portrayed as the one with the problem after so many marriages went bust: her husbands have included Ojani Noa, Cris Judd, Marc Anthony and Ben. She was also engaged to Alex Rodriguez. Sources tell that Jennifer wants to shine in 2025.
