You can find humor in what we do or take it as some offense, I don't see how but the choice is yours. I do have news for you though, WE DID NOT ASK HER TO TAKE THESE PIX. Plus they are free and the Galleries are only for informational purposes. I could see if we were taking Jenny from the block and placing these photos on a bottle of very expensive Glo perfume. Jenifer wouldn't like that and nither would we so lets just keep it really simple. J.Lo is going down in music business history and we will help by preserving the great pictures she has taken over the years.
I don't think Jen can sing that well and her choice of music tracks are sub-par, they are more like a mixtape. However to her credit she can act really good so even when the music career is over we can expect to see amazing movies from her. Hope you enjoy!
