That J-Lo concert moved me so much. In some of the songs, especially the ones with Latin roots, I was dancing out of the chair. "Let's Get Loud" was the best song in that concert.There are several other things that I liked about the concert:The concert had a variety of songs---a mixture of Latin songs and some that were not Latin. This shows J-Lo's talent as a real crossover artist like that of Ricky Martin.The house band in the J-Lo concert reminded me from something taking out of the Escovedo orchestra. For instance, in the song "Carino", the house band started out the song as a rumba, and then later on, the music morphed into a cross between salsa and funk---also known as Latin fusion--often done by the Escovedo orchestra. This variety of music moved me since I am a fan of the Escovedo family of musicians, and I loved it.I also like the varied use of theatrics in the J-Lo concert, from the Jumbotron visualizations and moving theater lights all the way to rising stage platforms and pyrotechnic effects. Therefore, it was like a magical and a circus-filled atmosphere from start to finish.I also like J-Lo by itself. Her dance moves were varied and I especially like the sequences when she does side-by-side movements with her house dancers.

Although I was rather critical about her musical skills I was still too curious to miss her first musical performance and I have to admit: it was not that bad as I expected! Especially the song "I could fall" (her tribute to "Selena") was quite emotional. You still have to say that her audience really admired her - that's maybe the reason they planned the concert in Puerto Rico, where JLo has her roots. Jennifer Lopez will sure not be my favourite concert act but she does definitely not only look nice....I give a 6 out of 10!

She can't sing live - basically all her singing was on tape - and the whole concert was more about this so-called artist showing off her latest outfits and wigs and watching her get off on herself than J.Lo and her musicians trying to bring something real and genuine to the audience. The whole show is pathetic and embarrassing and I couldn't see one genuine and uncalculated emotion in her performance. Jennifer Lopez makes, well, Destiny's Child seem deep and profound in comparison.

Last night I stayed up until 12:50am watching J-Lo Live In Puerto Rico on Channel 4.Recently I've heard/read people insulting Jennifer's singing, saying stuff like it's not very strong, and also female singers also seem to sound a bit rough and shouty live (Christina Aguilera) also put me off, so I have to admit, although I love Jennifer a lot and ahe's my favourite artist, I wasn't expecting much from her voice live.Hell was I wrong. From the moment "Lets Get Loud" kicked in and she came down the stairs singing I was hooked and didn't want it to ever end. I was blown away. She sounded brilliant, and I think the fact that she's also an actress doesn't get her as much recognition for this, as most singers/actresses are stereotyped as not being good at one or the other. It was fantastic. The songs sounded even better with the live band. The choreography was just great - done by her husband Cris, but I would have liked to have seen him on stage with her, when they're on stage together they work really well and feed off each other. I seriously couldn't fault it, it was just excellent. It's coming out on DVD soon, I'm going to buy it! I really hope she does a UK tour and I'll be the first to get tickets if she does!
