Jennifer Lopez gave a sultry pose that showed off her famous backside while wearing skintight leggings. This post, however, shocked fans and critics alike.
The 50-year-old singer stood in front of a mirror with her derriere on full display as she turned her body to look over her shoulder.
She shared her thoughts in the caption:
“Back at it and ready for the weekend. ☀️ @NiyamaSol,” the caption, which also included a tag for the company that makes her “Pink Paradise” leggings, read.
However, J-Lo received a flood of criticism for posting the picture of her butt in tight leggings even though people have been talking about her butt for decades.
Soon after the post went live, fans flooded the comment section with compliments, while it also brought about heavy criticism from her haters, who felt that the star was purposely seeking attention for her butt by posting the image to social media.
She took the bathroom selfie with her black iPhone and shared it with her staggering 124 million followers.
“You always have the best leggings!” one person wrote.
“okay, these are cute. And you’re looking AMAZING, mama,” another one wrote.
“You seriously have the PERFECT body!!!! God Bless you,” a third fan commented.
However, Daily Mail managed to find many cruel comments about Lopez’s viral image.
“Her obsession with her derriere is just ridiculous,” one reader said, according to Daily Mail.
“WHY???? Does this woman need this much attention all the time?” a second person asked.
While other people used this as an opportunity to compare JLopez’s butt to the surgically-enhanced backsides of the Kardashians.
“To think pre Kardashian days, everyone thought her bum was huge.”
“Always selling something like the K family! Zzzzz”

In another post to Instagram, Lopez spoke about a recent incident from the men’s basketball team at Duke University.
“#BlackLivesMatter We should be saying this every day. It’s not a political issue. It’s a human rights issue. Repost from @dukembb”.
She also posted content on June 19, 2020, urging her fans to join the Black Lives Matter movement and to understand why Black people have been subjugated to centuries of unequal treatment.
“Let’s take action: there is a link in my bio to sign a petition created by Opal Lee, a 93-year-old woman from Texas, to make Juneteenth a national holiday.”
