Jennifer Lopez showed off her curves in a stunning gym selfie after she faced backlash over a gross viral clip . The 54-year-old took to
Instagram to share two snaps of her enjoying some well-deserved time off with her family, including daughter Emme. The mother-daughter duo headed to see Daniel Radcliffe and Jonathan Groff in the Broadway musical Merrily We Roll Along, and even posed with the show’s stars backstage, with Jennifer sharing the sweet snaps in a slideshow summing up her relaxing weekend. One photo was taken in the Hustlers star’s bathroom, and showed her wearing an olive green two piece as she headed to the gym, while another snap was taken in her kitchen as she cooked up a storm on a rare day off from her busy schedule. Her fans were quick to defend her in the comments on the post, after Jennifer faced a serious backlash over a viral clip of her spitting gum into an assistant’s hand on a movie set. “And that's how you do it. Amongst all the hate, stay in the light,” one wrote. “Jlo is the MVP. Love how real she is. Life is hard man and she carries it with rawness mixed with the grace,” another added.

Social Media. Fans voiced their outrage as the clip from six years ago recirculated on X, showing the
Singer and
Actress accompanied by a friend or co-star in the streets of
New York as her assistant appeared to run into the shot to catch the gum. Viewers slammed the “outrageous behaviour” and accused JLo of being so lazy she couldn’t even be bothered to spit her used gum into a tissue, or put it in the bin herself. “Here's JLO spitting chewing gum into her assistant's hand in the middle of
New York City. Such rude and nasty behaviour. There is no reason to treat your employees like this,” the caption on the video read. Stunned fans shared their reactions, with one writing: “This is nasty. Aint enough money in the world . She couldn't spit it out behind her or something?” Another added: “Ewwwww this is so unethical of her to do that - manners JLO manners,” as one fan complained: “The more I hear about JLO the worse it gets." And another user replied: "This woman has always been disgusting like that, no new evidence.” A clip of Jennifer spitting gum into an assistant's hand went viral The singer's behaviour was branded 'rude' by disgusted fans ( Image: INSTAGRAM) However, some viewers revealed Jennifer’s behaviour was normal for actors on movie sets, as they are often asked to chew gum to clear their throat ahead of filming. “You obviously don’t know how often this is done on sets… this isn’t just her,” one replied, as another added: “She's chewing gums to maintain fresh air in her mouth for her other cast in the movie. When the camera is rolling she can't put it in the trash can hence the assistant was needed.” One eagle-eyed fan spotted that JLo was also wearing gloves, and added: “Giving it to her assistant was the most efficient solution. This clip was taken out of context, they could be pressed for time since they could be chasing the daylight. If I were her assistant, I would probably have tissues ready.” Follow Mirror Celebs on TikTok , Snapchat , Instagram ,
