JLo wins critics award for 'Hustlers': See her incredible speech and all the details of her makeup and style
Jennifer Lopez spent the weekend before Oscars-nominations in a winning place. The 50-year-old superstar nabbed the “Best Supporting Actress” title at the Los Angeles Film Critics Association awards dinner on Saturday, January 11 for her gritty performance in Hustlers. JLo’s style triumphed as well, exuding Hollywood glamour from the moment she arrived at the InterContinental Hotel. And don’t even get us started on her inspirational speech. From touching on the challenges of being a woman in the entertainment industry to praising the pursuit of following dreams, Jen reminded the world why she’s worth honoring.
Scroll to find out all of her stunningly superstitious style details!
Carpet Queen
First, we have to address the baby blue beauty in the room: Jennifer in Elie Saab. While the designer was quite possibly a superstitious choice - she famously wore Elie to the 2015 Oscars - it completely stole the show. The mom-of-three gave her other Hustlers tour looks a run for their money in the plunging gown, which boasted a 70s flare. The frosty fabric flowed, a deep v-cut flaunted her tight tummy and a matching chunky belt cinched the whole wintery affair at her waist.
Frosty fashionista
She was a champion accessorizer, too. The On the Floor singer’s R and M stylist team armed her with sparkling Le Vian jewelry which only elevated the ensemble.
Eyes on the prize
Meanwhile, her colour bomb eyeshadow and natural hair texture provided the perfect top off.
Nailed it
Last but not least, celebrity nail stylist Tom Bachik treated the star to a glittering manicure from The GelBottle Inc. What color? “Hustle,” of course.
¡Ganadora!
It seems all of her “superstitious” style details paid off, because the icon won! Though our brains were still in overdrive from taking in all the fashion details, it was impossible to not be motivated by Jennifer’s acceptance speech. Referencing the hardship of getting female-led projects off the ground, JLo told attendees: “We women banded together and every time we heard no — which was often — we pushed even harder.”
Love is in the air
JLo, who had the support of her fiancé Alex Rodriguez, beautifully added: “We are only as big as we allow ourselves to dream, and the possibilities are limitless.”
BRB, going to make that our new screensaver.
