Before she had her big break, Jennifer Lopez was living roughly.
The 43-year-old singer was cast as a Fly Girl on the show “In Living Color” in 1991, but before she took a major Hollywood gig, Lopez says she was homeless.
Lopez says she and her mother often butted heads, but the singer could not help but to follow her dreams. Lopez explained that she did not want to attend college, and instead wanted to dance full-time.
Lopez and her mother eventually took a break, leading to Lopez spending nights on a sofa at the dance studio. A few months later, Lopez secured a dancing job in Europe. When she returned, she booked “In Living Color” and moved to L.A. “It all happened in a year.” She said.
Lopez has two children, Emme and Max, with estranged husband Marc Anthony. She wishes to instill a strong work ethic in her 5-year-old twins through leading by example.
