Jenny from the block is living like it's the year 2000, as she and her ex-beau Ben Affleck tied the knot recently, living out all our romantic fantasies in Paris for their honeymoon. Lopez keeps a busy life, still acting in movies such as Marry Me opposite Owen Wilson, Shot Gun Wedding with Josh Duhamel, and The Mother. She is also raising teenage twins Emme and Maximilian.
Below we have ranked the superstar's 13 best songs since 1999. See if your favorite hits made the top of our list!
13. I'm Into You (feat. Lil Wayne)
Michael Buckner/Getty ImagesAlbum: Love? (2011) Best line: "When I look into your eyes, it's over / You got me hooked with your love controller"
12. Dinero (Feat. DJ Khaled and Cardi B)
Scott Gries/ImageDirectAlbum: Dinero (2018) Best line: " Me and my man, we stack it up to the ceiling / Cállate la boca, let me finish.
11. Get Right
Sean Gallup/Getty ImagesAlbum: Rebirth (2005) Best line: "Your lips talking 'bout I, "Play too much" / Can't a woman take advantage of what she wants?"
10. Let's Get Loud
Mark Mainz/Getty ImagesAlbum: On the 6 (1999) Fun fact: Originally written by the song’s co-writer Gloria Estefan for herself, she felt as if the song was too similar to her previous material and passed it onto Lopez.
9. On The Floor (Feat. Pitbull)
Carlos Alvarez/Getty ImagesAlbum: Love? (2011) Best line: "Dance the night away / Live your life, and stay young on the floor.
8. Ain't It Funny (Feat. Ja Rule)
Spencer Platt/Getty ImagesAlbum: J.Lo (2001) Fun fact: The song is essentially a Part II-style remix in that the original track was completely re-written and re-produced and not even the original lyrical concept remained. The song it is based on was actually released as the second single from Lopez' second album but only this version and “I’m Real [Murder Remix]” appear on all subsequent pressings of the main album.
7. Booty (feat. Iggy Azalea)
Evan Agostini/Getty ImagesAlbum: A.K.A (2014) Best line: "She got the boom, shake the room / That's the lightning and the thunder."
6. Waiting For Tonight
George De Sota/LiaisonAlbum: On the 6 (1999) Fun fact: “Waiting For Tonight” was originally sung by girl group 3rd Party in 1997.
5. Jenny From The Block
George De Sota/LiaisonFrom her 2002 album, <em>This Is Me... Then</em>, this sample-heavy hip-hop track pays tribute to Lopez's childhood growing up in the Bronx. In a few scenes, J-Lo is topless: on a yacht suntanning with her girls, while wearing a white fur coat, on a yacht again with her then-boyfriend/now-husband Ben Affleck, and in her hotel room. This album had some of the most iconic songs in y2k and we're glad to have been a part of that culture.
4. All I Have (Feat. LL Cool J)
Scott Gries/ImageDirectThe music video for this mid-tempo R&B and hip-hop ballad has the cutest looks for J-Lo, even though it's about moving on after a breakup. The opening scene takes place in a New York winter wonderland, with Lopez wearing a fur-trimmed baby pink coat and pigtails. In another look, she wears an edgy, graphic liner look. This song is a karaoke favorite to duet with someone and everyone knows the words!
3. Love Don't Cost A Thing
Scott Gries/ImageDirectAlbum: J.Lo (2001) Best line: " All that matter's is that you treat me right / Give me all the things I need that money can't buy
2. If You Had My Love
Scott Gries/ImageDirectAlbum: On the 6 (1999) Fun fact: The song is about Lopez confronting her admirer with a number of ground rules before they begin their relationship.
1. I'm Real (Feat. Ja Rule)
Ethan Miller/Getty ImagesAlbum: J.Lo (2001) Best line: "Now people lovin' me and hating me, treating me ungratefully / But not knowing that they ain't making or breaking me."
