Jennifer Lopez Is Famous For Being Famous

New York Daily News critic at large David Hinckley weighed in on the popularity of Jennifer Lopez, which by her body of work is difficult to understand. “Is it her music? Not unless you still hum ‘If You Had My Love.’ Is it her movies? Let’s put it like this. There is no waiting list for the ‘Angel Eyes’ DVD,” Hinckley said. “No, the news angle on Lopez is that she is going to get married, which would seem newsier if at 32 she hadn’t already done that twice. No. 2 isn’t even over. So what we have, unless her new CD does something startling, is another photogenic starlet famous at the moment largely for being famous.”
