Jennifer Lopez’s Rise to Fame and career hits

Jennifer Lopez, a Puerto Rican powerhouse from The Bronx, has built an empire during her iconic rise to stardom. Throughout her multifaceted career, it seems like she can do it all. Written by her friend Enrique Iglesias, Dance Again immediately made a strong impression on Jennifer Lopez. It was a song she simply had to sing.

Taking it day by day and step by step, Lopez mastered the fundamentals of dancing, acting, and singing and found her way to success. Selena in 1997, was one of Jennifer Lopez’s greatest performances, but we met her long before that when she was first introduced into American households in 1991 as a Fly Girl dancer on the hit sketch comedy show In Living Color.
