Jennifer Lopez, best known as 'J.Lo', was destined as a "Triple Threat Entertainer" for acting, song, dance. With strong Latin roots and success driven by grit, it's been a crazy ride on the way to the top for the Self-Made star.

When Jennifer Lynn Lopez dropped out of Bernard Baruch College at age 18, her mother kicked her out of the house. She was forced to sleep on the office floor of a dance studio. In retrospect, it was a wise decision. Time and again J.Lo has proved that she was never the typical middle child of a computer technician and Tupperware lady turned teacher.
