Netizens Mock Jennifer Lopez, Call Singer 'Talentless' Following Release Of 'This Is Me...Now' Album
Jennifer Lopez just dropped her newest album, but many were seemingly not impressed.
On Friday, Lopez finally released her most awaited album, "This Is Me...Now," a sequel to her 2002 album "This Is Me...Then." She dedicated her new record to her husband, Ben Affleck. However, critics were not happy with it and called J.Lo "talentless."
"Horrible CD! Why do they promote [a] talentless product?" one commented on Lopez's interview on "Today with Hoda & Jenna" while promoting the new album.
Another added, "@JLo ure [sic] still a fraud who can't sing and has no talent."
"[I]t was a sad day for real music when JLo and her dusty dress came to town and overstayed her talentless welcome," a different user said.
The criticism about Lopez allegedly lacking talent isn't new at all. Several critics called her in the same manner even years ago and accused her of allegedly stealing the work of other singers.
We are very well aware that JLO is talentless 😭 https://t.co/kMqraF1iaf
