Itâs a full-on culture clash: Foxâturnedâpodcaster Megyn Kelly publicly slammed Jennifer Lopezâs latest Tenerife concert performance, calling her a âsoft porn star.â But J.Loâ55 and on fireâhas no plans to be toned down. Instead, she used the stage to deliver Triple Threat energy: dance, music, empowered narratives, and unapologetic sensuality. Let’s unpack this Hollywood grudge, where politics, performance, age, and empowerment collide.

đ„ Scene 1: The Roast Heard âRound the Internet
Picture this: Jennifer Lopez, lace-up white bodysuit, fishnet tights, sparkly boots, writhing provocatively with male dancers at the Cook Music Fest in Tenerife. Naturally, the internet exploded. But Kelly, ever the contrarian, didnât just watchâshe blasted.
âSo sheâs a soft porn star now. Great choices!â Kelly tweeted, reposting a clip of J.Loâs sultry stage moves. Clips show Lopez grinding on all fours, grinding near dancers, even cheekily touching a dancer between the legsâright on national video feeds.
For Kelly, it wasnât empowermentâit was erotic overkill. And for J.Loâs fans? A performance art mastery of self-expression at 55.

đ§ Scene 2: Itâs Not the First Time They Clash
Kelly didnât wake up one morning and decide to dunk on J.Lo. Noâthis feud is textbook Kelly: repeated barbs at Lopezâs sexuality and messaging.
-
At a Pride event, Kelly mocked J.Loâs revealing outfit as attention-seeking, calling it a âserious problemâ in culture.
-
Earlier this year, at a Trump rally, Kelly sneered: “All J.Lo knows about what to do is ruin marriages… Now sheâs trying to ruin the country too.”
This latest jab continues Kellyâs deep dive into policing female expressionâespecially when it crosses into overt sexuality. Sheâs not a fan of J.Loâs âwokenessâ or her tour-leading, body-celebratory ethos. The clash is loud, public, and as much about culture wars as it is about clothing.
So sheâs a soft porn star now. Great choices! https://t.co/kNO1FgC6GM

đ Scene 3: J.Lo Doesnât FlinchâPlans Vegas, Prepares Power Moves
The irony? Lopez hasnât commented directlyâshe barely even acknowledges Kelly. Instead, sheâs doing business:
-
21-show European tour (Up All Night) booming with sold-out dates.
-
A Vegas residency launching December 30 at Caesars Palaceâno, Kelly, sheâs not done.
Her stage confidence? Mirror of her resilience. Instead of retracting, she ramped up: more energy, more visuals, more inclusivityâfor fans hungry to see her shine. If Kellyâs shot was meant to dim Lopez, it rebounded off the spotlight.
đ§ Scene 4: Why the Drama Truly Matters
Hereâs the real pitch:
-
Age vs. Appropriateness â J.Loâs sensuality at 55 ruffles conservative feathers. Kellyâs old-school discomfort bleats âtoo oldâ isnât sexy. J.Loâs reply with performance says âempowered.â
-
Politics Cloaked in Pop â Kellyâs zingers tap into anti-woke tropes, mocking celebs using stage/fashion for identity politics.
-
Spotlight Control â Lopez stays silent, focused on performance; Kelly keeps stirring pot. Whoâs really winning?
Itâs a microcosm of culture war debates: feminism, objectification, empowerment, agencyâand who gets to decide.

đŁ Scene 5: Public & Industry Reactions
Reddit Reaction (r/facepalm)
âPersonâs calling a 55-year-old powerhouse a porn star because she dances seductively. Tone it down, Megyn.â
âWait until she sees what Melania wore.â
Social Media Snark
-
Twitter: âCareer coach: donât waste energy on critiquesâjust outshine them. #JLoLessonâ
-
TikTok: âKellyâs pearls are clutched so hard right now.â
Industry Chatter
Entertainment Weekly called Kellyâs take âan eternal culture police clichĂ©.â Vogue Spain praised J.Loâs resilience, calling the Tenerife show â60 minutes of unapologetic self-expression.â
đŻ Scene 6: Perspective â Is It Porn or Power?
Kelly brands it porn-ish; fans call it freedom. Hereâs the crux:
-
J.Lo embraces her sexuality as an art form, not a commodity.
-
Kelly sees control and restraint as markers of proprietyâespecially post-divorce public figures like Lopez.
-
The optics? A 55-year-old world icon gets more flak than a 25-year-old pop starâbecause she refuses to fade.
Kellyâs critique? A distraction. Lopezâs response? Continued bold artistry. And the audience? Packed venues, social buzz, profitâunmistakable win.
đ§© Final Take: Stage Lights vs. Spotlight Critics
At its core, this clash is about whose voice we value: the veteran performer or the media watchdog? Does sexuality at midlife empower or overstep? Can feminism wear corsets and fishnets, or must it always choose muted empowerment?
Jennifer Lopez just sent a masterclass: embrace your body, art unapologetically, and let the tour do the talking. Megyn Kelly? Still clutching pearlsânot the stage.
