Making her first big public appearance after her divorce from Ben Affleck, Lopez confidently celebrated her single life with a performance that was fun, strong, and bold. The audience cheered loudly as she kissed both a male and a female backup dancer during the dance to “Lose Control” by Teddy Swims.
The routine included snippets from 23 of the year’s most popular songs, seamlessly blended into a nonstop medley. Among the artists featured were Kendrick Lamar, Billie Eilish, Bad Bunny, and Bruno Mars. Midway through, Lopez slowed things down with a sultry rendition of her own 2012 hit “Dance Again,” adding a nostalgic yet fresh vibe to the routine.
