Apr 17, 2016
Jennifer Lynn Lopez , also known as J. Lo, is an American singer, actress, dancer, fashion designer, author and producer. She became interested in pursuing a career in the entertainment industry following a minor role in the 1986 film My Little Girl, to the dismay of her Puerto Rican parents, who believed that it was an unrealistic career route for a Hispanic. Lopez gained her first regular high-profile job as a Fly Girl dancer on In Living Color in 1991, where she remained a regular until she decided to pursue an acting career in 1993. She received her first leading role in the Selena biopic of the same name in 1997. Lopez became the first Latina actress to earn over US$1 million for a role the following year, with the film Out of Sight. She ventured into the music industry in 1999 with her debut studio album, On the 6.
In May 2015, she announced her Las Vegas residency concert show which commenced on January 20, 2016; the first of twenty initial dates. It takes place at Planet Hollywood's The AXIS theater. The residency show is titled All I Have. With annual earnings of $28.5 million, Lopez was ranked as the seventh highest-paid woman in music for 2015. In March 2016, six years after announcing her departure, she announced her return to Epic Records, signing a multi-album deal with the label.
