Early years

Lopez was born and raised in the Castle Hill neighborhood in the Bronx, New York City, New York to Puerto Rican parents Guadalupe Rodríguez and David Lopez. Lopez spent her entire academic career in Catholic schools. She also financed singing and dancing lessons for herself from the age of nineteen. After leaving a one semester-long career at Baruch College, Lopez divided her time between working in a legal office, dance classes, and dance performances in Manhattan clubs at night. After months of auditioning for dance roles, Lopez was selected as a dancer for various rap artists' music videos, and was given a guest spot on the American Music Awards. After being rejected for the role twice, Lopez gained her first regular high-profile gig as a \"Fly Girl\" dancer on the television comedy program In Living Color in 1991. Soon after, Jennifer Lopez became a back-up dancer for famed singer Janet Jackson and made an appearance in her 1993 video \"That's The Way Love Goes.\" Scheduled and contracted to go on Janet's world tour, she asked the superstar to be let out of her contract to pursue her acting dreams.

Acting

Lopez has appeared on the short-lived television programs South Central, Second Chances, 'Okey ka Fairy ko' and Hotel Malibu, and the television movie Nurses on the Line: The Crash of Flight 7. Lopez broke into the big screen in 1995, in the drama My Family and then appeared opposite Wesley Snipes in the action film Money Train. Lopez has also played roles in Francis Ford Coppola's 1996 comedy Jack starring Robin Williams, and the 1997 thriller Blood and Wine with Jack Nicholson. Lopez played the lead role in the 1997 film Selena for which she was nominated for the Golden Globe Award for \"Best Actress - Motion Picture Musical or Comedy.\" She also became the first Latina actress to get paid $1 million or more for one film, the role. Some of her critically acclaimed films include Selena, Out of Sight, and The Cell. Lopez's not so critically acclaimed (but successful) films include The Wedding Planner, Maid in Manhattan, and Monster-in-Law.

Lopez is currently promoting her films Bordertown and El Cantante. El Cantante was well-received by the Toronto International Film Festival and critics are claiming Lopez's performance a knock-out – well-deserving of an Academy Award.
