Jennifer Lopez has "never" seen her singing career as a job

She told Extra: "I'm in my happy era and I have that in the show. I've never looked at it as a job. It's just what I love to do.

"And I just feel fortunate that I have these amazing fans who've supported me for so many years and there's so much love that I feel that I always want to be giving the love back to them.

"It's just been an incredible blessing in my life. I don't know what I would do without it."

Meanwhile, J-Lo recently opened up about what she wants in a partner following her divorce from Ben Affleck, 53, in January 2025 after two years of marriage.

In an Instagram post of Jennifer's performance of 1999's If You Had My Love at her Up All Night in Las Vegas residency at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace in January, she said: "When I first sang it, I was very young. I was a little baby in the woods and I sang it with a lot of hope.

"But I've also sang it over the years. I've sang it while I was sad and I've sang it when I was happy. But now, today, you know how I sing it? I sing it in power.

"Because the truth is, if you wanted to have my love, you would have to earn it. You would have to treat me right. You would have to respect me.

"You'd have to accept me for all that I am. You'd have to love me if you wanted my love."

Jennifer also joked about her marriage to Ben during her first Vegas show.

The Dancing Again singer recalled her 2016 residency Jennifer Lopez: All I Have and said: "It's been 10 years since my last residency ... That went by in a blink.

"I tell you ... and I've only been married twice since then. That's not true! It was only once, felt like twice. I'm kidding."

Jennifer then joked, "things happen", before kicking out her leg and adding, "and then get rid of them".

Jennifer and Ben ended their first engagement in 2004 before rekindling their romance in 2021. Daniella Monet is "so proud" of her Victorious co-stars and she still "keeps in touch" with most of the cast.

The 37-year-old actress rose to fame on the hit Nickelodeon show - which also starred Ariana Grande, Leon Thomas III, Avan Jogia, Elizabeth Giles and Victoria Justice - from 2010 and 2013, a decade later she's delighted to see everyone thriving.

She told PEOPLE magazine: "I'm so proud."

She has been tuning into Avan's new show 56 Days, while she recently took the cast of her Victorious spinoff Hollywood Arts to see Leon in concert.

She added: "Leon blew my mind, and I got to take the [Hollywood Arts] cast to see his concert, and it was so cool.

"He took us backstage, and they got to go on stage... The kids on this show have grown up with Victorious.

"We all have such a good place in our hearts for Victorious, so I'm really proud of what I'm able to do now."

Daniella - who has reprised her role as Trina Vega as a teacher in the spinoff show - admitted she is "in awe" of her former co-stars.

She said: "I've always been their biggest cheerleader. I feel so grateful and lucky to work alongside such talented people. They were so talented from the jump.

"Victorious was really a jumping-off point for all of them, and they're all in the verticals that serve them the best right now. I watch, and I am in awe of all of them."

Daniella noted how everyone has stayed busy and been able to thrive in their own ways after the show ended.

She raved: "Ariana is mind-blowing in all ways. Victoria is still performing, singing, putting out new records and starring in sweet movies that I love to watch.

"Liz [Gillies], who is one of my closest friends, is so talented. I'm so proud of everyone.

"Matt [Bennett], I'm so proud of him doing his concerts and selling out all these massive venues. Everyone is doing it, and it's so cool."

The pair tied the knot in July 2022 and Jennifer filed for divorce two years after their second wedding ceremony in Georgia - listing April 26, 2024, as the date of their split.
