Jenny electrified the audience! J-Lo, aged 44, leaves everyone in awe with her performance during the Opening Ceremony of the 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil, just before the Group A match between Brazil and Croatia at Arena de Sao Paulo on Thursday. The song serves as the flagship track of the World Cup album and comes after Shakira’s 2010 anthem, Waka Waka. The trio delivers an energetic show, jumping up and down on stage, waving their arms, and urging the screaming crowds to join in. As they finish the song and walk around the stadium, Jennifer appears overwhelmed with emotion, almost on the verge of tears, as she silently mouths ‘thank you’ to the fans and places her hand over her heart.

Making a comeback! After going through a challenging period in which the celebrity ended her relationship with her longtime boyfriend Casper Smart, Jennifer managed to deliver an energetic performance on Thursday. She joyfully bounded across the stage, showcasing her resilience.

We can’t believe how amazing J-Lo looks! She flaunted her incredible physique and appeared much younger than her actual age of 44. This has been an emotional period for Jennifer, especially since her breakup with boyfriend Casper Smart. Rumors were circulating that she might not be making any appearances lately. Some sources even suggested that Jennifer was finding happiness again with dancer Maksim Chmerkovskiy. However, J-Lo has denied these reports, stating on Twitter, “No, I’m not. #rumors #nottrue” in response to a fan’s question about their supposed romance. According to People magazine, Jennifer met the 34-year-old hunk through mutual friend Leah Remini.

Did Jennifer Lopez steal the spotlight from her rival pop star Claudia at an event? There was a moment when Claudia seemed to have lost her microphone, while J-Lo did her best to outshine her. According to a source, J-Lo and Claudia’s interaction at the American Music Awards last November led to them staying in touch. Maksim, who was previously linked to Kate Upton, is now rumored to be romantically involved with J-Lo, who is twice his age. To add fuel to the rumors, Jennifer and Leah attended Maksim’s brother Val’s birthday party in Los Angeles in March. One insider believes that they might become an official couple, but multiple sources deny it, claiming that they are just friends.
