Jennifer Lopez took the time to reflect on all the preparation that went into her and Shakira’s Super Bowl LIV halftime show performance, which was somehow already three months ago. On Sunday, J-Lo took to Instagram to post some never-before-seen behind the scenes footage from their halftime show rehearsals.

“I can’t believe it’s already been 3 months since the #SuperBowlLIV #Halftime Show!” she wrote. “So much has happened since then, but I wanted to share a fun peek behind the scenes at our first rehearsal with the dancers and @Shakira.” In the post, she included a handful of videos of everyone rehearsing different parts of the performance, but it was one clip of her and Shakira in particular that caught people’s attention.

In the second-to-last video, J-Lo can be seen showing Shakira how to get her butt to jiggle to its full capability. “I do it with my knees, I shake my knees,” she tells the “Hips Don’t Lie” singer, demonstrating her ass-shaking technique. “If you shake your knees, your butt goes.” J-Lo then reveals where she learned this handy trick. “My mother taught me that,” she tells Shakira. “When I was four!”

All their hard work certainly paid off. Re-live their incredible halftime show performance to celebrate the 3-month anniversary below:

J Balvin is one of the biggest global artists out right now so it would only make sense for him to be a part of the Super Bowl halftime show. Last night, Balvin did just that as he joined Jennifer Lopez and Shakira on stage for a phenomenal performance. During the show, Balvin was rocking some colorful footwear that was previewed online prior to his appearance. As it turns out, Balvin and Jordan Brand hooked up for a special collab on the Air Jordan 1. 

Thanks to the Instagram sneaker account @zsneakerheadz, we have some detailed photos of the shoe that give us a better understanding of what the colorway looks like. As you can see, there are gradient patches of blue, green, yellow, and red, while some of the materials are cut with jagged edges. There is also a smiley face with lightning eyes on the tongue as well as the back heel. 

Based on the reactions to the post above, there is no denying this is a polarizing shoe. This shouldn’t come as a surprise when you consider how colorful it is. Sneakerheads can be pretty gatekeeper-ish when it comes to the Air Jordan 1 which makes these reactions fairly normal.

What do you think of J Balvin’s Air Jordan 1? Would you ever cop these?

Last night, the Kansas City Chiefs defeated the San Francisco 49ers by a score of 31-20 to win their first Super Bowl in 50 years. It was a huge game that saw Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes mount a comeback in the late stages of the game. At one point, the Chiefs were down by 10 points with just eight minutes to go. Thanks to some big stops on defense and clutch plays from Mahomes, Tyreek Hill, and Travis Kelce, the Chiefs were able to get the win.

At halftime, we were graced with a halftime show from Jennifer Lopez and Shakira. The two put on quite the performance and many on Twitter took notice with some of the thirstiest tweets we have ever seen. NBA stars weren't an exception to this rule as both Giannis Antetokounmpo and Luka Doncic let us know just how enamored they were.

It’s been a week since Kobe Bryant was tragically killed in a helicopter crash in Calabasas along with his daughter Gianna and her basketball teammates and their parents. The NBA star was an icon in the sports world and beyond, and his legacy will be honoured during the Super Bowl halftime show, according to performers Jennifer Lopez and Shakira. During a press conference for the Super Bowl on Thursday, the co-headliners for the massive event revealed that there were plans in store to pay tribute to the Lakers legend at the Hard Rock Stadium.

“We’ll all be remembering Kobe on Sunday and celebrating life and diversity in this country,” Shakira said. “I’m sure he’d be very proud to see the message we are trying to convey on stage that day.” J-Lo added that the tribute will be “heartfelt,” and recalled the moment her husband, Alex Rodriguez, broke the news to her “with tears in his eyes” about Kobe’s passing while she was rehearsing. “It’s just reminding us how…fragile life is and how we have to appreciate every single moment and how we have to love people when they’re here and not wait. And how we don’t get the opportunity, it can be taken away from us so easily.”

She also noted how devastating the loss has been for Vanessa Bryant. “I think about Vanessa as a mom and losing her best friend and partner, and losing her child,” she said. “I think how awful that must be for her right now…I’ve just been praying that God guides her through every moment because she has three more babies to take care of.” Jennifer sent her love to Vanessa and her family in a tribute post to Kobe on Instagram last week.

Today’s the day: the Super Bowl LIV is upon us, and for all you fake sports fans or diehard J-LO and Shakira stans, the most exciting part about this fateful Sunday is the halftime show. Though it was announced months ago that Jennifer Lopez and Shakira were the allotted performers, it wouldn’t be the Super Bowl halftime show without some surprise guests. According to Page Six, J Balvin and Bad Bunny will be taking the stage with their fellow Latinx artists to perform. The publication reports that Shakira will be opening the Pepsi halftime show, and perform some of her biggest hits from her discography including “Hips Don’t Lie” and “Whenever, Wherever.” Bad Bunny will then reportedly join her on stage to perform “I Like It Like That” as well as a snippet of “Chantaje.”

On Tuesday, Bad Bunny released a new song in honour of the late Kobe Bryant called “6 Rings,” a reference to the number of championship rings Kobe earned during his basketball career. It has not been confirmed whether he will be given the opportunity to perform the tribute track, but Shakira has confirmed that plans are in motion to honour Kobe at the big event: “We’ll all be remembering Kobe on Sunday and celebrating life and diversity in this country. I’m sure he’d be very proud to see the message we are trying to convey on stage that day.”

J-Lo will then reportedly follow Shakira and Bunny, to perform some of her smash hits like “Waiting For Tonight” as well as a mashup of “Love Don’t Cost A Thing,” “Mi Gente,” and “Que Calor,” the latter two for which she will be joined by J Balvin. Jennifer’s daughter, Emme, who has been making appearances with her mother on tour, will then reportedly join them. For the finale, J-Lo and Shakira will reportedly take the stage together to perform a mash-up of “Waka Waka” and “Let’s Get Loud.”

The two Latina superstars have spoken about the importance of representation in regards to their performances. “I love that the Super Bowl has two women performing this year, that they have two Latinos performing this year,” J-Lo said. “For me, it’s their 100th anniversary but it’s also the marker of a new time, not just for the NFL but for this country. [It] sends an important message to everyone.”

Super Bowl LIV 2020 is officially on the countdown. The NFL’s big day takes place on February 2 at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami. Everyone who’s anyone is expected to be there watching as the newly crowned champions take home the trophy, and kicking off the coveted Halftime Show will be Jennifer Lopez and Shakira. There hasn’t been news of any other guests joining them on the stage, but the Halftime Show is always full of surprises.

J. Lo was in the California desert on Friday with her fiancé Alex Rodriguez as she was honored at the Palm Springs International Film Festival Awards Gala. Jennifer was given the Spotlight Award for her Hustlers role, but before she headed inside, she hit up the red carpet and chatted with Extra about her forthcoming Super Bowl performance.

“I shouldn’t even be here. I should be rehearsing right now!” she joked, “We already started rehearsals. We have a few weeks now to lock it all down. I’m excited to play a show I dreamed about for years as an artist, and to give a good show and have a good time.” Then, she couldn’t help but boast about how wonderful of a man Alex is, mentioning that she was “seriously blown away” by the emerald earrings he gifted her for Christmas. She even wore them to the event.

“I got tears in my eyes, not because of how amazing they were, but that he would do something like that, surprise me in that way,” Jennifer said. “It was so touching. My mom was there and she was like, ‘Why you crying? You deserve it!’ and that made me cry more… It has been an incredible holiday season for us.” Check out a couple of their cutesy holiday photos below.
