Hola, lovers! Jennifer Lopez got 'goosies' and dazzled New Jersey's Prudential Center on the first U.S. stop of her concert tour with Enrique Iglesias last night
The 42-year-old pop star, who dazzled the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, also used to say 'Goosies' when she served two seasons as judge on American Idol.
And though the mother of twin toddlers won't be returning to the Fox talent competition series, she has assured her fans via her official website that 'at the end of the day this is what I do. This is where I belong. Right here with all of you.'
Yin and yang: While her tour-mate opted for a t-shirt, jeans, and baseball hat, JLo played up her diva persona with three stunning costumes custom-made by one of her 'favourite' designers Zuhair Murad
Blame it on Rio: The 42-year-old pop star's cobalt blue fringed dress, with over 500 crystals, was inspired by the carnivals of Brazil
Lopez reportedly earned $15million on Idol, but due to her desire for more music and film projects - as well as Steven Tyler's recent exit - she decided to call it quits.
And while her tour-mate opted for a t-shirt, jeans, and baseball hat, JLo played up her diva persona with four stunning costumes custom-made by one of her 'favourite' designers Zuhair Murad.
Last night, Jennifer revealed a rarely-seen cascading chiffon cover-up, which perfectly matched her cobalt blue fringed dress, with over 500 crystals, inspired by the carnivals of Brazil.

Goosies! All of Jennifer's costumes hug and highlight her famous curves like this crystal-studded nude bodysuit, which gave the star 'goosies' in the air-conditioned stadium
'Much of my inspiration came from Paris during the Mistinguett Years, when costumes were as much of a part of the show as the dancers and the movement,' Murad said in a statement published in InStyle Magazine.
All of Jennifer's costumes hug and highlight her famous curves and the pop star's crystal-studded nude bodysuit with fringe has a fabulous white feather train and matching fur hat that's reminiscent of Buckingham Palace's guards.
Aside from a blinged-out hoodie cover-up, Jennifer's third ensemble is a sexy black leotard featuring inky beading and crystal-studded tights, and her fourth was a feminine version of a Spanish matador outfit.
