Trust Jennifer Lopez to celebrate her birthday by giving fans a new birthday anthem.

Jennifer Lopez ditched the traditional 'Happy Birthday' song for something more personal.
The singer celebrated her 56th birthday in Turkey this week. She marked her special day by releasing a new song, 'Birthday'.
"Name on top of the cake, it's my birthday/ I'ma make this famous a** shake, it's my birthday/Throwin' all this money in they face, it's my birthday/ Every day is my birthday, b***h," she sings.
Lopez performed the song for the first time during one of her 'Up All Night: Live in 2025' tour concerts.

"Everyone’s new favourite Birthday anthem is coming!" one of J.Lo's followers commented.
Another follower added: "When JLo sings about her birthday, the world listens, dances, and worships. You wish you were born this iconic.
