Jlo did an awesome job as Selena, nobody can deny that because even Selena's mom and dad said they couldn't believe how similar Jlo did things like Selena. But,...because JLo was so good as Selena, we had high expectations for work she would do after, especially acting. JLo couldn't deliver as she did with Selena, and of course she couldn't. When doing Selena, Jlo had another human being to imitate, she had a lot of Selena's interviews, videos that she could study. She didn't have that when it came to other roles she did. All this coming from a Jlo music fan. Can she dance...absolutely, can she sing,...not too bad but not the best. How many awards has she won for singing or acting....? It speaks for itself.
I Think JLo Literally was the best person to pick up where Selena left off. At that time there was no real Latin Representation in Music, Tv and Film. When Selena died Jlo picked up her “Baton” and finished the race. Jlo did not let Selena’s contribution go to waste. She did such a good job that Selena was immortalized thanks to Jlo. Jlo broke Hollywood Barriers by being the First Latina to get paid $1 Million dollars. She was the first Latina to have a Hit Record and Number 1 Movie. She made it big a back up Dancer prior representing Latinas. She’s the literal inspiration behind Google Images. She performed at the Superbowl. She had the balls to speak Spanish at the White House even if she was nervous. She was a Co-Host at the Met Gala. She’s done so much for the entire Latino community as a whole in Hollywood. She did more than any other Actress would have done after landing the role of Selena.
👑 i don't love this conversation but 📖 i couldn't compare them they both was successful i very much dislike [Selena's end beautiful girl] i heard of her from cable tv and when i heard [she was gone] it was sickening❤ mind u j lo was first and i love her as an actress i don't follow their music Because I'm GOSPEL All Day but i hold them both very precious very dear plus i loved how ♡Selena got her grub or eat on ♡ 🙏 🕊
Jennifer was in my family , money train , Jack ,blood an wine ,before Selena so she was known an working hard ,,, Selena died with JLO in the movie both went global , she took the torch an reach the level Selena dreamed of ..
I think Jennifer Lopez playing as Selena gave her acting career a huge boost. So, do I think she would be as famous as she is now if had not given the honorable part as one the most loved, beautiful from inside and out, Selena 💋, I don't think JLo would've been as well known and famous as she is now. But along the way as she became more famous we lost 'Jenny from the block', now we got that 'Jenny from the blocked'. Lol
@@smollsquishytaeilwho cares whether she’s talented at singing or not? the b*tch still managed to find success in literally everything after Selena, even within acting considering her Hustlers role while always being a mediocre or less than mediocre singer. It’s giving “I envy the fact that she found success while I watch from afar.” Bitterness gets u no where.
Honestly I knew who Selena was before JLo. When it was announced that a Jennifer Lopez was going to play her, I didn't know who JLo was at the time. Didn't see any of the movies she was in. JLo wasn't that popular. Did Selena's death open up doors for JLo? For sure. But I gotta say Jlo is hardworking and deserves the success that comes her way.
Jlo is who she is because of herself, she always wanted to be a singer, dancer, actress. The film helped jlo pushed herself to pursue it. And Jlo helped Selena be known outside the Hispanic community Jlo introduced her to the world
@@rogeliocastillo4935 she was in living color popular show, had films with top actors, the movie Selena wasn't a hit a the box office but anaconda was came out 3 weeks apart. Also people started knowing Jlo because of anaconda and out of sight the Latino community saw her in Selena
@ky7300 I literally have an article New York times from 1997 stating that an unknown actress by the name 'jennifer lopez' Relishes role of Selena that's the receipt right there
Here we go again... what makes this even more sad is that it's people in our own community. People will forever try and discredit anything and everything that JLo has ever WORKED for. That woman deserves EVERYTHING she has because she works her ass off. Period. That's one thing no one can take away from her (but I'm sure ppl will try). ALSO, thank God for JLo, because that MOVIE is how I was INTRODUCED to Selena. If it wasn't for the movie, would Selena be a star?
I think your opinion will depend on where you grew up. JLo helped me discover Selena but I grew up up in NY. Both beautiful driven women and not sure why we need to worship this question in such a hurtful way. I have my own problem w JLo but no one can deny how driven she is and thia desire to rip someone apart for sport feels weird.
I thought that the purse was bought from Etsy because the stylist came out and said it was. They got it for 20$ and not 20k like some sites claimed to be.
she did anaconda and selena at the same time.i think she would have been fine. may have took longer or been a different path but she would still be a star yes.
My mom brings this up a lot. But reality is NO. but she could’ve possibly have been a model. Although on the other hand it’s possible she wouldn’t have looked as good without the money for the personal trainers, healthy foods, nanny’s to take care of her kids to workout etc.
I can’t stand JLo but I can’t stand troll titles on UA-cam videos. Like let’s be fckn real she was a star BEFORE Selena died.. and if that role didn’t propel her then the cell would have
@@jeanluccouture9088 yes because she was already in money train, Jack, anaconda n out of sight.. she was already in Hollywood making movies before Selena..
@@ky7300 the whole reason jlo got casted was because of Selena’s fame even after death to this day Selena is a household name in Hispanic households. Un like jlos canceled tour that was canceled because of low sales 😂
@@BlazeJOJO97 she got casted bcuz she was a known actress. Jlo gave life to Selena and introduced her to the world, after jlos started her singing career. Jlos portrayal is what people think Selena is as but it wasn't
@@ky7300 jlo giving life to Selena is quite a stretch 😂😂😂 she’s was the first Mexican American Female singer with Grammy awards not Latin Grammy awards which is a line that no one has done until now a days, if anything Selena gave life to jlo… jlo didn’t even sing in the movie 🫢 Selena’s legacy would live on even without jlo portraying her likeness
@@BlazeJOJO97 people only remeber Selena because of the movie which is jlos portrayal. Because of the movie people loved Selena without it Selena would be a tejano memory
It’s cringe watching ppl try to cancel ppl for being rich.. that shit is pathetic, ppl have the ability to enjoy entertainment and still donate to Palestine.. it’s even worse when u cry about blacking out celebs then say ur a huge JLo fan foh virtue signaling is at an all time high
The world just knows who Selena is because of J.Lo that played her in the movie. Selena wasn't even that famous back then. I just came to know who Selena was becaise of J.Lo. they're both latinas but they have different styles, voices and everything. stop this shitty non-sense comparison once and for all. J.Lo was already a star before Selena's death and she's a hard-working woman so yes she would be this famous without Selena because she would record those hits of hers that y'all know, she would perform like J.Lo, which is her own signature. she wouldn't play Selena if Selena was Alive, but she would do many of those succesful movies of hers that y'al know. so make it make sense and stop with this shit.
I think jlo is a hard worker which I think that we can ALL respect that hustle, but without Selena dying not sure JLo would be JLo.

Nope she wouldn't because she got so much clout after the Selena movie and she wasn't talented at signing and still is not

@@smollsquishytaeilshe got clout for being Puerto Rican and not Mexican the Hispanic community got to know Jlo but it didn't really capitalize her
Her acting career was definitely boosted by Selena's passing. You'd be delusional to not admit that.

yes she would shes the hardest worker in Hollywood and she remains the Latina queen
Jlo is who she is because of herself, she always wanted to be a singer, dancer, actress. The film helped jlo pushed herself to pursue it. And Jlo helped Selena be known outside the Hispanic community Jlo introduced her to the world
Nobody knew who J-Lo was at the time so I'm gonna have to disagree with you there

It's because her whole career is based on Tommy Motola hating his ex wife Mariah Carey, and she doesn't sing most of her vocals.
@@mayaflici374 Have you done your research or are you just repeating what you heard from an internet troll?
She would still be a star because she has shady music business practices.

If JLO wasnt as famous as she was today, what path do you think she would have chosen?🧐

Selena wouldn't be famous without her dying the way she did her music wasnt that good to begin with.🤔😬😏👊🏽
Pero Jennifer Lopez se comporta como una diva repelente y arrogante, tengo entendido. Para qué dedicarle ni 30 segundos de video?
