Was a bit disappointed with JLo. Expecting Gwen, honestly. At least Gwen knows the tea of good stuffs, despite some of the "music for your teenage kids" tunes she has on her solo record or with No Doubt. And Gwen worked with 2/3(4) of New Order once!
Though, I get why a lot of folks here were mad at JLo as a guest. Having fun is fine, but girl also gotta be careful. This is a great reason:

3. Watch who she associates with.
Taylor Swift must lead, not follow. Collaborating or even associating with acts that regularly lip sync and use Auto-tune for example can only make their star burn brighter, and weaken hers. On her Speak Now tour, she invited local artists to perform with her on stage in certain cities, and this was a good way to localize her music and create memorable and definable moments for media to report on, and fans to remember. But Taylor Swift doesn’t need a popularity boost from TI or Tim McGraw, it is vice versa. Her collaborations should stay to up-and-coming artists that need the attention Taylor can afford, and with other artists who have the universal legendary status Taylor is now on the verge of achieving.

80% of JLo's music is trash and serving just as dancefloor soundtracks. I could give a **** about her 'global success' or whatever. She remains trash in my book.

Now I'm waiting for Axl Rose or Slash as a guest and perform "November Rain." PLEASE.
