Over 20 years into her stellar career and it still appears 2020 may be Jennifer Lopez‘s best year yet.
As if kicking the year off with a history-making, high octane Super Bowl Halftime Show performance wasn’t enough (which later earned her an EMMY nomination), the singer-actress earned a Golden Globe nod and Oscar buzz for her role in the 2019 film, ‘Hustlers.’
While she left the aforementioned ceremonies empty-handed, the E! People’s Choice Awards are looking to add a new member to her mantle as the triple threat diva has been slated to receive the event’s most prestigious trophy.
“The superstar performer has been selected to receive the People’s Icon award at the upcoming E! People’s Choice Awards.
Per today’s announcement, Lopez is being singled out for her “iconic performances both on stage and on screen,” including the Super Bowl halftime show and in the hit film Hustlers.”
Sharing her elation for bestowing the honor to Lopez, Jen Neal – a rep from E! – took to press to say:
“Jennifer Lopez has an unmatched global appeal and for more than two decades, has given us some of the most iconic, unforgettable performances of all time,” said Neal, General Manager for E! News (live events & lifestyle digital) before saying the 51-year-old “single-handedly [increased] Latinx representation in music, film, television, and fashion.”
