Jennifer Lopez kisses three back-up dancers in ‘cringe’ act at American Music Awards

Jennifer Lopez has been roasted online after her steamy performance at the American Music Awards left most viewers unimpressed.

Jennifer Lopez is single and she sure did mingle onstage at the American Music Awards.

As host of the evening, the superstar took to the stage for the opening performance at the

Fontainebleau Las Vegas, where she danced to a medley of the biggest songs of the year.

But it wasn’t her signature dance moves that made Lopez’s performance showstopping – it was her steamy kiss with not one but three of her back-up dancers.

Just like the Britney Spears, Madonna and Christina Aguilera three-way kiss back in 2003 at the MTV Video Music Awards, Lopez puckered up on stage albeit with three unknowns.

After flawlessly executing the choreography set to a string of chart-toppers such as Kendrick Lamar’s Squabble Up and Doechii’s Denial Is a River and Bruno Mars and Rosé’s APT, Lopez boldly kissed multiple back-up dancers when the Teddy Swims’ track Lose Control dropped.

“Our host has just danced to 23 hits in six minutes,” Haddish said on stage. “Just from that opening number alone, Jenny From the Block has got all her steps in for the day and she got all her kisses in.”

“Save a dancer for me, JLo! Damn,” she added. “You ain’t the only one out here single.”

Lopez copped more heat online for the kisses, which some have labelled “cringe”.

“Jennifer Lopez has lost the plot,” one person wrote on X. “Why is Jennifer Lopez kissing everyone at the AMAs?”

“She’s too damn old to be doing this sh*t lol,” another tweeted, as one pointed out, “ffs Madonna was doing this shtick years ago.”

As for Lopez, she just wanted to get on stage and dance like no one was watching.

“I had to kick things off by turning it up to the biggest songs of the year and dancing my heart out for all of you,” she told the crowd after her performance.
