Jennifer Lopez was born in Bronx, NY in the family of two Puerto Rico’s emigrants Guadeloupe Rodriguez and David Lopez. Her family was quite poor, though parents were trying to give all the best to their daughters. They saved enough money and sent Jennifer to the Catholic school, her mother wanted to protect Jenny from the influence of the streets, so she sent her to the dancing school also, as soon as Jenny became five years old. Little J’Lo was learning flamenco and ballroom dances there, she made such a great success that she was participating in the town concerts after two years of studying. At the age of fourteen Jennifer began to take singing lessons, thought her mother considered it only like a hobby; she wanted her to become a lawyer, so Jenny had to abandon her hopes of becoming a famous singer and follow her parent’s will. She enters some notary’s office by their insistence, but later on she enters Manhattan’s dancing school and combines her legal practice with dancing. She quits her college after one term and decides to be a professional singer; she has to leave her house, because her parents didn’t share her efforts. Jenny’s first problem in the big world was absence of habitation; she had to act in some cheap advertising videos earning only twenty dollars for it, all of her attempts to find a suitable job were useless because of her Puerto-Rico’s origin.
