Jennifer Lopez Admires But Won't Copy Lady Gaga's Style

Jennifer Lopez admires Lady Gaga but refuses to copy her style. Lady Gaga has etched a unique space in the industry that dubs her the Madonna of our time. Even Beyonce who’s slated for icon success is being compared to Lady Gaga with her new sound. Lady Gaga undoubtedly controls a large chunk of the pop market.

J.Lo who collaborated with Gaga for two singles on her album “Love?”, tells MTV news: “I’m always motivated by other artists and inspired by them. They inspire me because when I see other people doing great things, it makes me want to do great things too.”

“I love her (Gaga’s) sense of lyric and melody, I feel like she’s very interesting. It’s just not something you’re gonna hear every day.”

“I never am one to look at other people and try to do what they do. I always feel like a true artist does what they do and it is very individual to who they are.

“You can’t copy or do anything like that it just becomes weird but if you’re true to yourself and push your own boundaries and your limits, you can’t help but come out with something great.”

It’s refreshing when artists produces great music, something that defies the trend. While Jennifer Lopez’s music isn’t ground breaking, we’re happy she isn’t jumping on the bandwagon of the likes of Lady Gaga, Rihanna and Katy Perry.

Independent journalism still matters.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
