Lopez is regarded as the most influential Hispanic performer in the United States, having broken racial barriers in the entertainment industry.[12] The Record newspaper observed that she was responsible for the introduction of a Latin presence in the film industry.[273] In Icons of American Popular Culture: From P.T. Barnum to Jennifer Lopez (2009), author Robert C. Cotrell describes Lopez as the Hispanic version of Oprah Winfrey, calling her a "multidimensional artist who had turned into a financial powerhouse".[5] In 2012, Forbes opined that Lopez "may be the most powerful entertainer on the planet".[274] Lopez is the highest-paid actress of Latin descent, as well as the wealthiest actress in Hollywood as of 2013.[275] Miriam Jiménez Román stated in The Afro-Latin Reader: History and Culture in the United States (2009) that "[she] was able to traverse the difficult racial boundaries".[276] As a result of launching a career in music in the late 1990s, she played a part in the "Latin explosion" that was occurring in entertainment at the time.[277] Around this time, the emphasis on Lopez's curvaceous figure grew; scholar Sean Redmond wrote in Stardom and Celebrity (2007) that this was a sign of her role and social power in the cultural changes occurring in the United States.[278] The Daily Herald described Lopez as "crossover royalty".[279] In February 2007, People en Español named her the most influential Hispanic.[280]
VH1 ranked Lopez at number 15 on a list of "200 Greatest Pop Culture Icons",[281] number 16 on "100 Greatest Women In Music",[282] and number 21 on "50 Greatest Women of the Video Era".[283] Her album J to tha L-O! The Remixes was acknowledged by the Guinness World Records as the first number one remix album in the United States.[284] In 2010, Lopez was honored by the World Music Awards with the Legend Award for her contribution to the arts.[285] Lopez's musical comeback the following year with her single "On the Floor"—one of the best-selling singles of all time, and its music video was previously the most-watched by a female in digital history—is regarded as one of the greatest comebacks in history.[286] Lopez remains the only entertainer to have a number one album and film simultaneously in the United States.[287] In 2013, Lopez was presented with the prestigious landmark 2,500th star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for her musical contributions, with the Los Angeles Times declaring, "It's hard to think of a more emblematic figure of multitasking modern celebrity".[288]
Famed for her distinctive fashion and style, Us Weekly named Lopez Style Icon of the 2000s decade.[289] The Green Versace "Jungle Dress" that she wore at the 42nd Annual Grammy Awards in 2000 was voted the fifth most iconic dress of all time in a poll run by The Daily Telegraph.[290] The images of Lopez wearing the dress became the most popular search query of all time at that point, and subsequently led to the creation of Google's image search.[291] Her style has influenced a range of celebrities.[292][293][294] Her record-breaking fragrance line has become the most successful celebrity line in the world, with sales exceeding $2 billion.[295] Lopez has been credited as an idol or influence by a range of entertainers, including Jessica Alba,[296] Kat DeLuna,[297] Kerry Washington,[298] Becky G,[299] Britney Spears,[300] Q’orianka Kilcher,[301] Selena Gomez,[302] Beyoncé Knowles,[303] Raquel Castro,[304] Karen Rodriguez,[305] Kelly Key,[306] Layla El,[307] Mike Doughty,[308] Stooshe,[309] Naya Rivera,[310] and Pitbul

There are very few people in the entertainment business with as much starpower as Jlo, she can release a flop album with flop singles, followed by a flop show and flop movie all in one year and come out unscathed, starpower and career intact. Others not so fortunate to have such a big name literally fall out with 1 or two flop projects. And even when she flops she still manages to influence others and garner high media attention. When will there faves

Because she's not in her prime no more. 10-15 years from now kids will be doing the same to all the current respected pop stars

Anyway, my take: Lopez has no artistic style. I loved her in her early days when she did latin/RnB. Then, when that did not work anymore she did that spanisch Album, then she went euro Pop. She has some very nice bops but you feel she just sings (on some) Songs. There's no heart.

This is what I was trying to say
It's clear in her voice that she has little to no natural singing ability, and it's clear in her music that she doesn't have any musical tact
It's really not shade because she has iconic songs that we all love it's just she is not a musician..at all

She deserves it. She's not really a good singer, she's a trendhopper, she's not as big of a box office/critic darling like her fans want to believe, she's not really a good singer, she lip synced to Ashanti's vocals in "Ain't It Funny" and Christina Milian's in "Play" and she said the n-word in "I'm Real"... the only thing she has to her name is that dress and her ass. She's sort of like Kim K had "Jam" taken off. Her fans think side-by-side pics of artists "copying" her outfits is influential like only one piece of all clothing is created.
but that's just my thoughts

Beyoncé and Jennifer Lopez wearing similar clothing/being styled similarly is not an uncommon phenomenon, we all know this.
I wasn't talking about image....I was talking about her actual "music"...
