Although her chat with Emme was mostly inaudible at one point JLo appeared to say: ‘Just sing – don’t worry about nothing.’

The smoldering pop diva was all dressed up to hit the stage for segment of the show where she performed Jenny From The Block while pole-dancing.

Jennifer’s album included a snap of her baring her chiseled midriff in a crop top and leggings as she danced up a storm at rehearsal.

A rehearsal picture was also included in which she was in black and white workout gear and the backup dancers were in all black.

Jennifer then played Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve With Ryan Seacrest and got emotional while discussing COVID-19 deaths during 2020.

Alex’ behind-the-scenes reminiscences from that show included a romantic snap that showed him kissing J-Lo’s head while she was in costume.

He also uploaded footage of her inauguration performance where she sang This Land Is Your Land and America The Beautiful and threw in a bit of Let’s Get Loud.
