‘Definitely Not Fabulous’: Jennifer Lopez’s Pants Criticized during Recent Outing in Los Angeles

Jennifer Lopez’s most recent public outing sparked public scrutiny again, as her fashion choice was a big miss with social media users, much like the leopard print outfit she recently wore.

Stepping out onto the sunny streets of Los Angeles, Hollywood star Jennifer Lopez was spotted in public on October 20. For her excursion, the “Get Right” singer donned an all-black outfit that many found unappealing.

Her ensemble featured a high-neck blouse with a small bow-tie detail by the collar, which added a touch of elegance to the shirt with rolled-up sleeves. Aside from the earrings, rings, and bracelet she wore to accessorize, Lopez carried a small black handbag with a gold chain strap.

Shielding her eyes from the California sun, she wore oversized dark shades. Regarding her locks, the “Dance Again” artist styled her tresses in a loose, tousled updo with strands of hair falling effortlessly around her face.

The focal point of the ensemble was the pair of high-waisted, cropped pants Lopez sported. Her tailored trousers were form-fitting, with a straight-leg cut that tapered just above her ankles. She paired these pants with black ballet flats.

Upon seeing pictures of Lopez out in Los Angeles, her outfit quickly became a hot topic on social media, with many netizens expressing their disdain. “Under no sun or moon [sic] those pants have anything to do with the word chic, come on!” exclaimed an Instagrammer.

Another commenter echoed this sentiment, “Definitely NOT fabulous; her pants are horrendous!” While the pants were certainly the primary focus of the backlash, they weren’t the only aspect of her ensemble that drew negative attention.

Some individuals criticized the entire outfit, commenting on its overall lack of appeal. One person remarked, “Just because the style is trendy doesn’t mean it looks good.” “I’m guessing she didn’t look in the mirror,” insinuated another.

A harsh criticism came from one user who penned, “Whoever dressed her secretly hates her. And i [sic] love him/her for that.” “This is an absolutely awful look on a completely beautiful person. Meant for strung out white ladies whom revel in their thinness [sic],” added someone else.

One individual shared, “I also go out sometimes thinking I look amazing then I look at the mirror in the street [sic] and yeah.”

Aside from criticizing Lopez’s fashion choices, some observers even turned their attention to her height. “No wonder she wears heels all the time,” noted a spectator, while another expressed, “I never realized she is so short!”

This recent wave of criticism is hardly unfamiliar territory for “The Mother” actress, as her fashion sense has long been the subject of public scrutiny. Just weeks prior, Jennifer Lopez caused an online commotion when she appeared in a photo shoot for Interview magazine.

In one of the photos shared by the magazine on Instagram, Lopez wore a revealing bikini bottom paired with a cropped leopard-print jacket over her shoulders. She completed her look with oversized gold earrings, a chunky necklace with hanging medallions, and black platform shoes.

Although the photo shoot, part of Interview’s 55th-anniversary celebration, was seen as fashionable by some, Lopez’s revealing outfit drew mixed reactions.

“Sorry she has kids put some clothes on nn one cares go away [sic],” commented one user. Another frustrated Instagramer wrote, “Can she disappear for along time ? [sic] She’s definitely not someone to look up to, even for her own children. She should start looking at the roles she takes and start leaving her clothes on.”

Other detractors echoed similar sentiments. “That’s not classy,” remarked a critic, while another added, “I don’t understand why she needs to be in the spotlight all the time. Guess it is ego. Wish she would just take a break and focus on her kids.”

Despite the criticism, Lopez’s fans rallied in support, praising her confidence and bold fashion sense. “The styling is sooo [sic] good,” swooned one fan. Another admirer gushed, “Geez this woman is amazing 😍,” while someone else complimented, “Loving the leopard look🐆🖤.”

Lopez’s photos coincide with an introspective conversation she had with comedian Niki Glaser. In it, Lopez reflected on the lessons she’s learned throughout her life and how she believed she had reached a stable place after years of personal growth.

However, she admitted that life remained unpredictable, “My whole world exploded,” underscoring the challenges she continues to face despite her success.

She also openly discussed one of the hardest times in her life — her recent divorce from actor Ben Affleck over the summer. When Glaser asked Lopez if she had any regrets about the split, she responded, “Not one second. That doesn’t mean it didn’t almost take me out for good. It almost did.”

Reflecting on her growth since the split, Lopez explained, “But now, on the other side of it, I think to myself, ‘That is exactly what I needed. Thank you, god. I’m sorry it took me so long. I’m sorry that you had to do this to me so many times. I should have learned it two or three times ago. I get it. You had to hit me really hard over the head with a sledgehammer. You dropped the house on me. Don’t have to do it again.'”

She also acknowledged that, despite learning important lessons, she doesn’t have everything figured out. Nonetheless, she’s excited about being independent. “Yes, I’m not looking for anybody, because everything that I’ve done over the past 25, 30 years, being in these different challenging situations, what can I […] do when it’s just me flying on my own,” added the star.

Despite the emotional hardships, Lopez is eager to return to her career and connect with her fans. She expressed excitement about the prospect of going back on tour, showing that she remains passionate about performing.

“I can’t wait to get back out there. I have the most understanding and loving fans in the world. Some fan bases can be spicy. Mine are just a bunch of lovers,” said the acclaimed musician.

Lopez admitted how difficult it had been to step away from the spotlight, as she felt devastated about disappointing others. However, she explained that she needed time to focus on herself and her children during a particularly challenging period in her life.

While the hardships were tough, Lopez appreciated the chance to work on herself. She also thanked her supporters for their understanding and promised to return to the stage soon.

Amid this personal turmoil, she also turned heads at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) red carpet, not just with her striking outfit but also with her interaction with one of her estranged husband’s famous friends on September 6.

At TIFF, she wore a striking silver metallic dress by Tamara Ralph, which featured a mirrorball effect. Adding sultriness, the dress left both sides of her curvaceous body exposed and was fastened with black velvet bows.

She paired her dress with matching silver heels, a chic Judith Leiber clutch bag, and Hassanzadeh diamond jewelry. Lopez was at the TIFF for the premiere of her new movie “Unstoppable,” which she worked on with Affleck, who was noticeably absent from the event, reportedly because of work.

Upon seeing photos and videos of Lopez posing up a storm on the red carpet in her daring outfit, netizens were quick to assert their opinions on how she looked. Many felt that Lopez’s dress did not look good.

“[Definitely] a worst dressed [sic] winner 🏅,” remarked an observer on Instagram while another echoed, “This dress is a disaster.” “It’s really ridiculous [sic] I feel like she had no class with that dress😮😮😮😮😮,” opined someone else.

Expressing a similar sentiment, another netizen chimed in with, “This dress was seriously inappropriate for the type of film that […] was being premiered. This was not it.”

“I admire her fitness and drive but she’s a mom and I don’t think this is appropriate apparel to wear. Personally, I don’t like this outfit. It has no color. Plus, how can anyone walk and move wearing that [?]” asserted a Facebooker.

Acknowledging Lopez’s beauty while expressing disdain for her dress, a spectator said, “She is truly a beautiful woman but this ‘outfit’ does nothing for her!” “I think it’s one of her worst looks,” stated another observer.

Amid the vitriol came a fan who praised, “She’s beautiful and I love her dress! 😊.” On the other hand, a curious netizen pondered, “Was the dress for Ben to see?”

Lopez’s TIFF attendance came just over two weeks since the “On the Floor” singer filed for divorce from Affleck. While the “Gone Girl” actor wasn’t there, his best friend and fellow Tinseltown star Matt Damon and his wife, Luciana Barroso, were.

Aside from work-related reasons, sources reported that Affleck, who co-produced the movie based on wrestler Anthony Robles’ book with Damon through their company Artist Equity, had skipped the premiere because he was spending time with his kids in Los Angeles.

Having seemingly preempted that there would be swirling questions from the public concerning why Affleck was not there, “Unstoppable” director William Goldenberg briefly addressed the divorce drama.

Speaking to a media outlet before the premiere, Goldenberg disclosed, “Everybody’s a professional, and that’s their own personal thing. I love them both. I mean, I know Ben better, but Jennifer was literally a dream to work with […] And their personal life is their personal life.”

At some point during the event, Lopez, who starred in “Unstoppable” alongside famous actors Bobby Cannavale, Don Cheadle, and Jharrel Jerome, was spotted in the middle of a deep conversation with Damon.

The “Jason Bourne” star was photographed holding hands with her as the two chatted away. An eyewitness reported that their conversation lasted for over 20 minutes after Lopez sat down at an outdoor table with Damon and his wife.

While the content of their conversation remains unknown, the timing of it seemed to suggest that Damon might have been showing support for Lopez amid her divorce from Ben Affleck.
