J Lo opened by saying she watched the AMAs as a little girl, noting her first performance was in 2001, as a video flashback played showing her dancing onstage to her music.
Cut to 2015 when J Lo hosted the AMAs. She recalled constantly making wardrobe changes and doing a dance medley to some of the top songs of that year.
Then J Lo went further back, remembering when she sang a Celia Cruz tribute on the AMA stage in 2013. She called the tribute one of the most special of her lifetime, because Celia is such a music icon.
J Lo ended with … “And I’m excited for the next 50 years of music — and magic.”
Meanwhile, Lopez is moving forward with her divorce from Ben Affleck after 2 years of marriage … despite the 2 being seen out together recently.
We’re told the pair are still very cordial … but have tapped famed divorce lawyer Laura Wasser to mediate their divorce without a prenup.
