Jennifer Lopez found herself in the spotlight again after stepping out in an all-black outfit in Los Angeles this week.
The whole look seemed to spark considerable social media debate among both her fans and critics.
Featuring a high-neck blouse with a small bow-tie detail, the 55-year-oldâs look was completed with rings, a black handbag, and her trademark oversized sunglasses.
The most polarizing part of the look, however, was her high-waisted, cropped pants paired with black ballet flats, which many commenters found unappealing.
Lopezâs choice of pants became a hot topic, with social media users expressing strong opinions.
One Instagram user criticized: âUnder no sun or moon those pants have anything to do with the word chic, come on!â
Another wrote: âDefinitely NOT fabulous; her pants are horrendous!â
Although some focused on the pants, others found fault with the entire outfit. Comments ranged from âJust because the style is trendy doesnât mean it looks goodâ to the biting remark: âWhoever dressed her secretly hates her.â
Some even turned their attention to Lopezâs height, noting that she seemed shorter without her usual high heels.
One observer remarked: âNo wonder she wears heels all the time,â while another added: âI never realized she is so short!â
This public reaction follows close on the heels of another fashion controversy Lopez faced weeks earlier.
During a photoshoot for Interview magazine, she wore a bold leopard-print outfit that included a revealing bikini bottom and a cropped jacket, paired with oversized gold accessories.
Although some fans celebrated the daring look, critics were quick to voice their disapproval.
One commented: âSorry she has kids, put some clothes on,â while another asked: âCan she disappear for a long time?â
Many questioned why Lopez remains so prominent in the spotlight, suggesting she focus more on her personal lifeâŚ
Despite the negativity, Lopezâs supporters came to her defense, admiring her bold fashion sense.
âThe styling is sooo good,â one fan praised, while another exclaimed: âGeez, this woman is amazing.â
Lopezâs latest style critiques came just after she opened up about the personal challenges sheâs faced, including her recent divorce from Ben Affleck.
In her Interview piece with comedian Niki Glaser, Lopez reflected on the lessons learned from her past, admitting: âI did all the work and look at where I am, and then it was like my whole [âŚ] world exploded.â
She continued by acknowledging that she had been searching for happiness in relationships for so long that she had forgotten to look inward and find joy within herself.
âBeing in a relationship doesnât define me. I canât be looking for happiness in other people,â the mother-of-two said. âI have to have happiness within myself. I used to say Iâm a happy person, but was still looking for something for somebody else to fill, and itâs just like, âNo, Iâm actually good.’â
