Under the dazzling glow of neon stage lights, Lopez commanded attention in a breathtaking leopard-print, crystal-embellished jumpsuit from the luxury brand Solangel.

The skintight, high-neck piece hugged her iconic curves, blending bold animal print with shimmering sequins. It was a thrilling combination that perfectly mirrored her high-energy performance.

Adding to the eye-catching outfit was a sleek black belt cinched at her waist. Completing the look, Jennifer Lopez donned semi-sheer, ankle heels.

Her signature honey-blonde locks cascaded in loose waves, while her makeup — flawlessly sculpted with bronzed tones and a glossy nude lip — enhanced her natural radiance.

At another point during the show, the "Unstoppable" actress sported a leopard-print coat, which matched her jumpsuit perfectly. She wore this clothing item as she sat down for an intimate and slow rendition of her classic, "If You Had My Love."

The "On The Floor" musician's widely discussed performance comes just over two weeks after she caused another online commotion at Clive Davis' Pre-Grammy Gala on February 1, 2025.

While she made a striking entrance in an elegant outfit, it was not just her fashion choice that caught attention. As she waved to fans, she was seen chewing gum, a detail that quickly became a topic of discussion online.

The annual Pre-Grammy Gala, hosted by Clive Davis, marked its 50th year with a significant change — this year's event doubled as a fundraiser for MusiCares fire relief. The gala, traditionally a star-studded affair celebrating the music industry, took on a philanthropic angle to aid those affected by the recent wildfires.

He revealed that while attendees typically were not required to contribute financially in the past, this year, donations were being encouraged. "Previously, nobody paid for anything! Now they are all being asked to donate. I will be giving a healthy six-figure amount. We just got another wonderful, charitable person to donate $100,000. There will be fundraising during the event."

Although the gala's purpose shifted to support relief efforts, the structure remained the same, with performances and appearances from high-profile figures in the industry.
