Jennifer Lopez makes steamy appearance at the 2025 AMAs
'55 years of age... It's time we put some respect on this woman's name." Social media users praise J.Lo's AMAs appearance.
Jennifer Lopez was the hostess with the mostest at the 2025 American Music Awards (AMAs).
The 55-year-old opened the show with an electrifying medley featuring some of the biggest songs of the past year.
At one point during her performance, the 'On the Floor' hitmaker shared a steamy kiss with a male and female dancer.
Many social media users noted that the kiss was similar to Madonna's iconic 2003 MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs), where she kissed Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera.
"I hear the kisses are going viral. I felt it went really, really well," Lopez told Extra TV about her performance.
"I am such a perfectionist, I always feel like I could have done this little piece or that little piece [better]. It was perfect."
Social media users were also impressed.
"55 years of age... It's time we put some respect on this woman's name," one person wrote.

Lopez also talked about her favourite parts of the show, which included introducing Janet Jackson to the stage.
Jackson received the Icon Award at the ceremony.
"She was one of my biggest inspirations," Lopez said.
She's an ICON, she's a legend, and she is the moment! 🤩
