Megyn Kelly calls Jennifer Lopez an ‘adult entertainer', disses her sultry performance
The political commentator compared Lopez to 'a soft porn star' when reposting a video of the 55-year-old singer performing her hit song I'm Into You at the Cook Music Festival in Spain on July 18.
'Great choices!' the 54-year-old sarcastically captioned the video on X.
Lopez's performance of the 2011 hit featured a dance break with several shirtless male dancers mimicking some sexual positions, which Kelly firmly disapproved of.
Although many of Kelly's followers agreed with her take in the comments, others called her out for the mean-spirited post.
'Jealous much?' one user wrote, seemingly referring to the singer's impressive physique that she showcased during the performance in a plunging, bedazzled bodysuit.
'We could be a little less judgmental,' someone commented. 'Still grasping at relevance, Megyn?' another added.
Some also took to the comments to defend the dancer's seductive moves on stage that Kelly was criticising.
'Have you never seen contemporary dance?' one viewer questioned.
Lopez has not publicly reacted to Kelly's social media post. Reps for Lopez weren't immediately available to Page Six for comment.
The Megyn Kelly Show host is known to give her unfiltered takes about many Hollywood A-listers.
Earlier this month, she claimed that it was Sydney Sweeney's 'enormous breasts' that snagged her an invite to Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez's wedding.
'How does she wind up there?' the podcast host questioned after coming to the bold conclusion.
The journalist also compared Sánchez, 55, to a 'hooker' after the philanthropist stepped out wearing a low-cut white pantsuit and lace corset to Donald Trump's inauguration ceremony.
'At the inauguration, she wore a corset. She had her boobs on display. I can't with this woman,' Kelly said at the time.
'The girls were out … I can see the middle of her boobs. I can see her underboob … this is absurd. She couldn't even keep them covered up for a day.'

Snow White star Rachel Zegler quits Evita mid-show in London
Rachel Zegler left Evita mid-performance on Thursday due to a mystery illness and did not return. The actress's departure was announced during intermission, per a People reporter who was present. Zegler — who plays the lead, former Argentinian politician and activist Evita Perón, in the play — has yet to address why she suddenly exited or provided a health update. Page Six has reached out to her reps for comment but has not immediately heard back. It's also unclear whether Zegler will return to the stage for Friday's show. The play's official Instagram has not released a statement and reps for The London Palladium theatre could not immediately be reached. Despite Zegler's absence, Thursday's audience still got a full show as her understudy stepped in. Bella Brown reportedly began Act 2 with Don't Cry for Me Argentina, one of the most famous songs from the play by renowned composer Andrew Lloyd Webber. The actress received a standing ovation that lasted nearly five minutes, per People, and she and the rest of the cast bowed 10 times as a result. Brown continued to relish the praise via social media on Friday by reposting some of the compliments, including one that called her a 'superstar.' She also added via her Instagram Story, 'Today really showed just how important swings and covers are within the industry!! They are the pillars of a show!! A proud day to be at @officialevita.' In March, it was revealed that Zegler had been chosen to play Perón in the West End's Evita. 'Evita has been such an important musical to me since I was a little girl, when my dad and I would sing Don't Cry for Me Argentina together on my back patio,' the West Side Story star told Deadline. 'The opportunity to bring Jamie Lloyd's singular, visionary ideas to life onstage is an honour unlike any other.' She continued, 'The stage has always felt like home to me, and I can't wait to make my West End debut in such great company.' The casting came after Zegler's live-action version of Snow White bombed at the box office following a series of controversial remarks and rumours of a feud between her and co-star Gal Gadot. Her final performance at the London Palladium is scheduled for September 6th.

Delta Goodrem reveals fifth all-white wedding look as she continues to celebrate her big day
Delta Goodrem has shown off a fifth all-white wedding dress that she wore while celebrating her wedding. Goodrem married Matthew Copley at a 12th century cathedral in Malta, where he proposed, and wore three gowns by two of her favourite Australian designers when she walked down the aisle last month. In the latest pictures shared to her Instagram, Goodrem gave further insight into her celebrations where she was surrounded by her closest friends and family. In the romantic snaps, Goodrem posed against a stunning scenic backdrop before being joined by her new hubby as the pair both flashed a satisfied smile. 'I always knew what I wanted my wedding dress to be,' she told Vogue earlier this month. 'And I knew the perfect designer for it. Paul [Vasileff, creative director and designer of Paolo Sebastian] and I connected the second I got engaged, and we started working together immediately. I am very lucky I get to wear beautiful dresses as part of my job, so I wanted this one to feel super personal and very special.' The resulting lace gown 'was structured, yet still delicate and feminine', Goodrem said. 'It was a statement piece but a fairytale dress. The sweeping train and the tulle cathedral veil perfectly suited the style of the wedding and the surroundings.' Goodrem first shared snaps from her wedding when she took to social media earlier this month to first announce her big day. 'June 2025, Husband and Wife. It was more magical than we both could have dreamed,' she wrote. 'We said I do under the Maltese skies in a family fairytale wedding brought to life by so many angels surrounding us. We are holding on to every memory from that moment, the love, the laughter, the happy tears and dancing till the sun came up.' She added: 'We can't wait to come back to Australia and celebrate as Mr & Mrs.' Goodrem's near-decade-long relationship with Copley followed a string of high-profile romances with other celebrities – including Nick Jonas, Brian McFadden and Mark Philippoussis – earlier in her career.

‘What a joke': Justin Timberlake fans demand refunds after the star ‘barely sings' during latest concert
Justin Timberlake is facing ridicule after numerous videos from his latest concerts appeared to show him 'barely singing'. Timberlake is currently embarking on the European leg of his Forget Tomorrow World Tour, which has already sparked viral videos for all the wrong reasons. One video shared by a fan at the star's show at Electric Castle festival in Transylvania on July 17 shows the star appearing rather unenthused at the notion of having to perform. The clip shows the star during a performance of Can't Stop The Feeling, however, the word 'performance' appears to be quite a stretch. 'Is the rain always like this in the summer? No? So y'all cooked this up for me? Thanks,' he said complaining about the weather. He keeps holding the microphone at the crowd encouraging them to sing before pulling up his hood and singing a handful of words, then turning to the audience again. Another clip that went viral showed the star barely singing his smash hit Mirrors, with the caption from a fan saying: 'Go girl, give us nothing! 'Can yall just peep that attitude at the end too like he was mad yall didn't sing it loud enough. When he's the one getting paid to do that,' remarked one annoyed fan. Another agreed, replying: 'This is awful! People paid to be there and he just couldn't be bothered?' 'This performance literally could have been an email!' laughed a third, with another adding: 'I wasn't even there and I want a refund!' It comes after Timberlake sparked backlash earlier this year when he cancelled the final show of the US leg of his tour with just 12 minutes until showtime. 'You guys. I'm heartbroken. I have to cancel the show tonight,' Justin revealed on Instagram. 'I went into soundcheck battling the flu and now it's gotten the best of me. It kills me to disappoint you and my team who have worked so hard to make this show happen. I want to reassure you, you'll be getting refunds for your tickets. I love you all.' Fans rushed to lash out at the star for giving barely any notice, with one commenting: 'Cancelling because of being sick is 100% understandable. Cancelling 10 minutes before the doors were to open is unacceptable.' 'Bought almost 40 bucks in drinks tonight, was sitting in our seats, we thought the announcement was a joke. Paid 20 dollars in parking and now 2 vacation days wasted on this MF,' remarked another angry fan at the time.
