No doubt celebrities are the most sought after personalities. But they don't achieve this success overnight. Jennifer Lopez, too is not an exception. It will certainly be interesting to see how her career as a singer as well as an actor bloomed and also to note some exciting facts in her life.

Jennifer Lopez is a name that will seldom need any introduction. Proven her mettle as an American actress, singer, dancer, producer and a fashion designer, Lopez has been ranked as the richest among the Latin Americans in Hollywood.

And as far the celebrity news about Jennifer are concerned, let me tell you, almost every day you will find something about her hitting the headlines.

Jennifer Lynn Lopez was born on July 24, 1969 in Castle Hill which lies in the neighborhood of Bronx, New York. She has a nickname "La Guitarra" meaning a guitar shaped body. She was raised a Roman Catholic and was taught in Catholic schools. Apart form her contribution to the American entertainment industry; her advocacy for human rights and vaccination and her work for the Children's Hospital in Los Angeles contribute in her popularity as one of the influential celebrities in America.

Lopez entered the musical theatre as a child. My Little Girl was actually her film debut at the age of 16; but it proved a regular washout. It was in "In Living Color", a television sketch comedy series that she was spotted out as a talented dancing star.  "Second Chances," a television drama, truly was a second chance for her to introduce herself as a talented actress and she proved herself so.

In 1995, her film came "Money Train" in which she shone along with other celebrities like Wesley Snipes and Woody Harrelson. And thus Lopez secured her on place in the pages of celebrity news. Then followed a few movies like Mi Familia, Blood and Wine, and Jack with Jennifer getting smaller roles. 1997 brought her a lead role in Selena, where she played a slain tejano singer. Then Lopez went on attaining the dizzy heights of eminence.

"Out of Sight" made pots of money in 1998 in which Lopez co-starred opposite George Clooney. No one could stop her now. Lopez became one of the highly sought after celebrities by paparazzi. By becoming the highest paid Hollywood actress having a Latin American origin, Jennifer reached another milestone.  She could be seen in all the newspapers and magazines among the hot celebrity pictures.

Lopez, essentially a singer, went back to her musical roots and made her debut as a pop singer in an album "On the 6" that sold like hot cakes. Amongst many more from the album "If You Had My Love" literally mesmerized the audience. Lopez became more popular with her diminutive J. Lo since 2001. In 2002 Jennifer released yet another sensation called "J to tha L-O: The Remixes" and "This is Me… Then" The latter came up with yet another hit single "Jenny from the Block"

Celebrities and controversies are synonymous. Jennifer, too, indulged in a glamorous romance with Ben Affleck that caught the eye of many. She married singer Mark Anthony in2005 and released her next album called Rebirth. Como Ama una Mujer came in 2007. In October 2007 Lopez released a ‘traditional' sort of an album called Brave and then set out on an accompanying tour.

Well, this was a general overview of Jennifer Lopez's flourishing career both as an actress and a singer. If you are interested in some happening celebrity pictures of Lopez, you will get them in plenty on our website.
