Jennifer Lopez - J.Lo (album)

Jennifer Lopez popular biographiesJennifer Lopez studio album...

J.Lo is Jennifer Lopez' second studio album , J.Lo released in January 2001 by Epic Records. J.Lo album debuted at #1 on the United States Billboard 200 w/ 272,000 copies sold in its opening week, staying in the top 20 for six weeks, after the single "Love Don't Cost a Thing (song)" had reached number three on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. The 2nd single of J.Lo album, "Play (Jennifer Lopez song)", performed moderately but disappointingly, which led Lopez's team to bring in Ja Rule of The Inc. Records (then known as Murder Inc. Records) to create "Murder remixes" of "I'm Real (Jennifer Lopez song)" and "Ain't It Funny". These remixes, which are essentially different songs with the same title, both topped the Hot 100.

On July 24, 2001 (coinciding w/ Jennifer Lopez's 30-second birthday), the album was re-released with "I'm Real" (Murder Remix) as a bonus track—due to its usage of slurs such as "nigga", "btch", and "fck", the re-release came with a Parental Advisory sticker. The album was 1st released without the sticker, despite featuring strong language and sxual content ("I'm Real", "Play", "Come Over"), similarly to Janet Jackson's All for You (album).

Ileana D'Cruz

Ileana D'Cruz (born August 19, 1987) is an Indian film actress, who predominantly appears in Telugu-language films. Starting her career as a model, she made her feature film debut in Y.V.S. Chowdhary's 2006 Telugu film Devadasu. She went on to appear in commercially successful ventures Pokiri (2006), Jalsa (2008) and Kick, establishing herself as one of Telugu cinema's leading actresses.














Ileana was born in Mumbai, Maharashtra as the second child to her parents. Her father is a Catholic from Goa, while her mother is a Christian who converted from Islam. She has three siblings, an elder sister named Farah, a younger brother Reece and a yonger sister Erene. Her first name comes from Greek mythology. While growing up, she lived for several years in Goa.














D'Cruz made her feature film debut in 2006 in the Telugu language romance film Devadasu, directed by Y. V. S. Chowdhary, who spotted her in a "Fair and Lovely" ad film directed by Rakesh Roshan. Critics were in praise of her, particularly referring to her physique and looks; Jeevi of Idlebrain wrote that Ileana "makes a cool debut. She is good at histrionics and has a fabulous body any woman would love to possess. She has great legs and nice physique", while a review from Indiaglitz noted that she "has chiseled features and a figure to die-for."















Devadasu, which also marks its lead actor Ram's acting debut, became the year's first major commercial success, eventually grossing around 14 crores, whilst earning Ileana the Filmfare Award for Best Female Debutant. She next appeared opposite Mahesh Babu in the action flick Pokiri in which she portrayed an aerobics teacher, who is harassed by a corrupt police offer. The film was a huge financial success, emerging the highest-grossing Telugu film of all time until then, as well as Ileana's biggest commercial success so far.















Lather that year, she made her Tamil-language film debut in Kedi (2006). Although the film did not do so well at the box-office, D'Cruz remained too busy to accept all the film roles offered to her. Her Telugu film Khatarnak (2006) in which she acted opposite Ravi Teja did not do as well as expected, which has been attributed to her glamorous appearance not going down well with the audience. She subsequently experienced a setback in her career as her following releases Rakhi (2006) and Munna (2007) proved critically and financially unsuccessful.














D'Cruz's career took a turn for the better with the release of her well-received 2007 film Aata, acting opposite Siddharth. She received favorable reviews for her performance as Satya, a college student who is on the run from the home minister's crooked son by whom she is targeted, when leading a protest and demanding punishment for his crimes.[
