American singer Jennifer Lopez recently received a lot of praise from her fans online after she introduced one of her children using gender neutral pronouns at the sixth annual Blue Diamond Gala of the Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation.
Ahead of the duet performance, Lopez introduced 14-year-old Emme – one of the twins she shares with her ex-husband Marc Anthony – using gender-neutral pronouns – they/them.
What did JLo say?
Lopez introduced Emme Maribel Mu?iz using the gender-neutral pronouns they and them.
Calling them her “favourite duet partner”, JLo said, “The last time we performed together was in a big stadium like this and I ask them to sing with me all the time, and they won’t. So this is a very special occasion.” The video was shared by TikTok user @christinathesupermom.
According to CNN, the pair last made headlines for performing together when Lopez co-headlined the Super Bowl LIV Pepsi halftime show in 2020.
“They are very, very busy. Booked. And pricey,” Lopez went on to say. “They cost me when they come out. But they’re worth every single penny because they’re my favorite duet partner of all time.”
Emme then appeared on stage, carrying a rainbow microphone in to sing Christina Perri’s hit, “A Thousand Years” with their mother.
