I'm sure OTF would've done well without AI but I don't think quite AS well as it did. I definitely think the show helped her regain momentum in all aspects of her career, including music, television & movies. She was struggling, career-wise, more than she had before the show.
Maroon 5 were struggling too. So was Christina.
The weekly exposure helps. And sometimes once a song blows up in the US, it blows up WW (i'm not sure how well OTF was doing before the debut week in the states).
Plus OTF is J. Lo's most radio-friendly song in years, just like Jagger is exactly what people want right now. It's a combination of increased exposure & giving the people what they want musically imo.
