The seasoned performer, 56, was part-way through a dance while she sang her 2011 track On The Floor, when she narrowly avoided a nasty fall, before laughing it off and going straight back to her dance
Jennifer Lopez stumbled and almost fell flat on her face during a performance as part of her Las Vegas Up All Night residency, after rehearsing tirelessly to impress her fans. Ironically, the near-accident happened during a rendition of her 2011 track On The Floor, during which she was doing a tightly choreographed dance, before stumbling and almost falling on stage.
But the 56-year-old styled her mishap out in true J Lo fashion, laughing it off and picking up where she left off to seamlessly continue the show at The Colosseum at the city’s Caesars Palace. The show, which features some of the singer’s major hits, plus other Broadway-inspired tracks, has been in Vegas for four dates in the winter, plus a run of eight gigs this month.
Despite her glamour and incredible appearance, J-Lo has been criticised by some audience members for her outfit choices, which have been unsurprisingly revealing. The star, rightfully hit back at her critics, saying: “If you had this body, you’d be naked too.”
It was during a show recently, where she addressed critics who said she should ‘dress her age. She told the crowd: “Ah, scrolling through the internet – why do we do this to ourselves? It’s so crazy.”

The singer went on: “You know, thank God I’ve been doing this a long time. I can just ignore a lot of it; it really doesn’t mean anything. I tell my kids that all the time.”
J-Lo was referring to her 17-year-old twins, Max and Emme. She shares her children with her ex, singer and actor Marc Anthony.
Lopez continued: “I do laugh at some of the things sometimes, because they do say funny things too.” Mimicking her critics, she said: “Why she always dressed that way? Why don’t she dress her age? Why she always nakedd?” She added: “And I said, “If you had this b***y, you’d be naked too.’”
Back in January, Lopez was accused of being ‘rude’ towards E! ’s Glambot director Cole Walliser on the Golden Globes red carpet. But Cole actually ended up defending the singer following the backlash, telling fans they need to “calm down” and he didn’t take her actions personally.
Angry viewers hit out at Jennifer for acting like a “snob” and appearing to “ignore” Cole as he prepped her for her Glambot shot. The viral clip showed Cole, who produces slow motion glam shots of celebs using a high-speed camera, greeting Jennifer who responded briefly before looking down and turning her back towards him.
In a video shared shortly after, Cole explained that the actress was in a rush and that Jen’s pose was “unfortunately” positioned so that she was facing away from him. Stating that “internet needs to just calm down,” the Canadian director said: “I didn’t take it personally. It didn’t feel rude in that moment.”
He continued: ‘I think there’s a couple things that added to the fuel of this idea. One, she’s just down to business. The carpet was closed. She’s ready to go inside. She knew what she was gonna do. She got into the position. It’s just unfortunate that the position was she was facing away from me. So I am talking to her, she is looking away, but she’s getting ready for the move.”
Cole added: “I knew what she was doing. I knew she was getting ready. I knew it was late. We were just getting through it. That moment didn’t feel rude.”
