Jennifer Lopez suffers wardrobe malfunction during concert
Jennifer Lopez accidentally left her skirt on the floor Friday during a concert in Poland. Lopez, who performed in Warsaw on Friday for her 56th birthday, suffered a wardrobe malfunction during the middle of her celebration. The "Waiting for Tonight" singer was in the midst of receiving birthday wishes during her livestreamed concert when her gold sequined skirt fell to the ground. Lopez glittered in gold wearing a metallic bra with a matching fringed skirt for the show. As she walked across the stage, concert-goers caught a glimpse of her matching underwear when her sparkling skirt hit the stage. "Thank you, Warsaw," Lopez screamed to the crowd when suddenly her skirt broke. "Oh! I'm out here in my underwear." A backup dancer rushed to her side and attempted to cover up Lopez, only for the "Let's Get Loud" singer to throw the broken garment into the crowd. "I'm glad that they reinforced that costume, and I'm glad I had underwear on," she said. "I don't usually wear underwear." Representatives for Lopez did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment. JLo's set to perform once again this week in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. It's unclear if any additional precautions are being taken to prevent another on-stage incident. The tour, which began earlier this month, is her first tour in six years. Lopez was slated to embark on the "This is Me… Live" tour in the summer of 2024, but canceled the concerts to spend time with her family. Representatives for Live Nation explained JLo would be "taking time off to be with her children, family and close friends." "I am completely heartsick and devastated about letting you down," Lopez wrote in her newsletter. "Please know that I wouldn't do this if I didn't feel that it was absolutely necessary. I promise I will make it up to you and we will all be together again. I love you all so much. Until next time ... " Two months later, Lopez filed for divorce from her fourth husband, Ben Affleck. The Hollywood heavyweights finalized their divorce in January, with both parties waving spousal support, in addition to waiving further discovery proceedings. Affleck and Lopez were married for two years before she filed for divorce on Aug. 20 in Los Angeles County Superior Court. Her petition for the dissolution of their marriage was filed on the two-year anniversary of their Georgia wedding.

One month later, the newlyweds hosted a backyard ceremony for friends and family at the $8 million Georgia mansion Affleck purchased when the couple first began dating 20 years ago. Affleck and Lopez first met while working on the set of "Gigli" and were engaged in 2002 with plans to marry in September 2003, but they postponed the wedding and ultimately called off their relationship at the beginning of 2004. "Bennifer" reunited once again before the summer of 2021, and Affleck proposed to Lopez in April while she was taking a bath.

You know when people always talk about the good 'ol days? There are just some things that the past did better. When a Redditor asked on r/AskReddit, "What's a good trend that slowly disappeared, but you'd like to see it making a comeback?" the answers poured in, and it was like entering a time capsule. Here's what people had to say: 1."Social media before advertisements, when it was just actual friends that you knew in real life and their albums of drunk photos from the weekend." Rotten Tomatoes Trailers / Via — Pleasant_Detail5697 "Timelines/feeds being defaulted to the most recent thing your friends posted instead of a stupid algorithm that's just trying to get me to stay on the app as long as possible." — hippstr1990 2."7AM and 6PM news and nothing more. Edit: I know there was other time slots but you get it." — angelicbitch09 "You don't want it ON THE HOUR ON THE HALF AND WHEN IT BREAKS???" — Historical_Tennis494 3."My parents watch a lot of HGTV. My god, they take homes and turn them into warehouses. Any non-load-bearing walls are taken out, and everything is painted white. Did we all just decide personalities are uncool?" — rainshowers_5_peace "Personality hurts resale 🥹." — PleaseGiveMeSnacc 4."When companies weren't afraid to make electronics FUN. Everything was translucent and came in, like, seven different colors. Atomic purple Game Boys, kiwi green iMacs, the see-through landline phones...
