This is a fun flashback. Jennifer Lopez talks to BET about her J-Lo store, her various J-Lo lines of clothing, and her “new” album (at the time) Rebirth. I love the outfit she has on - she looks so cute. The crowd is just going wild over, too.

She talks a lot about the “Get Right” video, and playing all the different parts.

Have you listened to Jennifer Lopez’s album Brave? It didn’t do tremendously well, as far as albums go, but it had some really great songs. I found a few fan videos that feature the music from Brave and also include some great pictures of J-Lo.

Here’s the song “Never Gonna Give Up.” I like how Jennifer’s voice is on this clip, and really enjoy the violins at the very beginning. It has a different feel.

In “Mile in These Shoes.” This song almost sounds like something from the Pussycat Dolls in the very beginning. It gets a little screechy for me as she gets into the middle and end, but hey - do we ever really hate her music?

In the song “I Need Love” J-Lo almost talks about her own experience as she sings the title. The song has a rap beat, and Jen almost talks the very beginning. This song isn’t my favorite, but I do enjoy the pictures that go along with it.

and now for the best part, the title track. I really love the song “Brave.” It suits Jennifer’s voice very well and also has an amazing set of end rhyme. You can’t get this one out of your head.

Jennifer Lopez’s videos are always unique, but when she released “Ain’t It Funny” it looked and felt like nothing else on the market. She envisioned the story behind the video, and worked with Herb Ritts to put it all together. I think it turned out wonderful. Here’s the extended version of the video and song:

Isn’t Ellen one of the best daytime shows around? She really gets the best interviews out of celebrities. In February 2007 she had Jennifer Lopez on. It was a very cute interview!

In the first part, Jennifer talks about her favorite TV shows (Grey’s Anatomy and American Idol), her step-children (including the one that sang on her video “Get Right“), and having her own kids.

The really interesting thing is Jennifer said she’d like to have “two at once - then you’re done.” A little foreshadowing on the present day perhaps? Then Ellen suggests perhaps she should have four at once!

That Ellen!

In the second part, Jennifer talks about her first spanish language album, which came out in March 2007. She also talks about her show Dancelife.

In the third part, Ellen gives Jennifer a “celebration hat” (that is very funny - you’ve gotta see it) and then talks with the dancers of Dance Life.

Jennifer Lopez’s song “Should’ve Never” is one of the best ones (IMHO) from her first album, On the 6. The lyrics are really outstanding. (And you all know I’m big on lyrics.)

I caught this fan video on YouTube and it includes the lyrics and thought it was a nice thing to share with you all this lovely Saturday! Check it out.

Jennifer never made a video for “Should’ve Never” but, another fan on YouTube did and I think it’s a great one. Check it out.

Looking for J-Lo’s hot Megamix? I love this collection! Here it is:

Here’s a nice present in time for the holidays. Jennifer Lopez will release a “greatest hits” CD sometime in the fall or winter months. We’ve been waiting for a greatest hits collection, and I’m glad to see they’re finally going to do it. (I may just put that on my own Christmas wish list.)

Here’s a video with a sneak peak of some of the songs that will be on the CD:

One source says these songs will be featured, but keep in mind, this is only a guess at this point:

• “If You Had My Love”
• “Jenny from the Block”
• “Waiting for Tonight”
• “Play”
• “Do It Well”
• “Feelin’ So Good”
• “Ain’t It Funny”
• “I’m Gonna Be Alright”
• “Love Don’t Cost a Thing”
• “I’m Glad”
• “I’m Real”
• “Ain’t It Funny”
• “Let’s Get Loud”
• “All I Have”
• “Get Right”

Personally, I’d like to see a few more of the remixes on this list, but I guess that’s what she already did with “J-to-the-Lo.” I’m sad to see “Brave” is also left off the list, because I think that’s a brilliant song, perfect metering and rhyme, and has a very strong message for females.

But other than that, I do think this will be a nice addition to any J-Lo fan’s musical database. I’m sure Jen will also do a video collection to go along with the CD. Can’t wait for that! Her videos really make the song.

What do you think? Will you buy the new Jennifer Lopez Greatest Hits CD when it comes out?

Besides being busy with the “nightshift” in watching the twins, Marc Anthony is recording three studio albums. Billboard reports that he’s working with Billy Joel and Babyface to make a pop album. He’s also recording an album full of Spanish ballads and a “tropical” album.

They’re all coming out at the end of the year. Looks like J-Lo isn’t the only workaholic in the family!
