Jennifer Lopez rocks head-to-toe leopard print while promoting her film 'The Mother' in New York
NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Jennifer Lopez unleashed her inner beast mode, rocking a Valentino leopard print outfit with fringed sleeves while promoting her latest action-packed movie on May 3. The actress, who is promoting her new film ‘The Mother’, looked stunning in her 'wild' tunic worn over leopard print leggings and shoes.
Ben Affleck's beau wore her hair in loose, glossy curls that were partially pinned back to show off her stunning face and carried an animal print purse too. JLo, 53, further accessorized with gold hoop earrings and sunglasses, looking every bit the pop queen she is with her flawless makeup.

As she stepped out, she saw a crowd had gathered to wait for her appearance and she gave a warm wave to her fans. JLo also shared three Instagram photos of her outfit during the promotion. '#THEMOTHER @livekellyandmark @jlobeauty,' she said in the caption.
‘I prayed for 20 years’
The ‘Waiting For Tonight' singer plays an assassin desperate to do anything to protect her small daughter, played by Lucy Paez, in the upcoming Netflix film. The official synopsis for the film says, "A formidable female assassin emerges from hiding to rescue the daughter she abandoned years ago while on the run from dangerous men."
On May 3, the actress appeared on Today to promote her new picture, and she took the opportunity to brag about her husband, Ben Affleck. Guadalupe, Jennifer's mother, also made a brief appearance during the interview, saying she had always hoped Jennifer and her now-husband, Ben, 50, would reconcile after the high-profile pair split in 2004.
"I knew that you would always get back together because I prayed for 20 years," the adoring mother told her daughter during a conversation with hosts Hoda Kotb and Savannah Guthrie. Jennifer responded with a humorous eyeroll and shake of the head, telling Hoda to "keep going" with the interview.
‘He's a wonderful, wonderful father’
Guadalupe's wishes were answered when, nearly two decades later, the couple resumed their romance in 2021 before marrying in 2022. Jennifer also gushed about Ben as a 'father figure' to her 15-year-old twins, Max and Emme, during her Today appearance.
"He's a wonderful, wonderful father and father figure to them. He has his own three beautiful children and then there's us and he's fantastic," Jennifer said. "He really steps up to the challenge of what that is and what that means and they love him. They love him. They appreciate him and so do I."
Earlier in the interview, the ‘Get Right' singer discussed how love had altered her for a second time, as she is re-learning what is essential to her. "I love what I do. I have always said that, but since I had kids, that changed for me. Now, having a family in this way and being married, you start rejiggering everything. What is really important? How much do I want to work?" she said.
The couple met on the set of 'Gigli' in 2001 and began dating soon after. Unfortunately, they called it quits on their engagement in 2004, but they rekindled their passion almost 20 years later in 2021. They tied the knot last summer.
