As usual, Jennifer Lopez delivered a spectacular show at the Blue Diamond Gala organized by the foundation of the Los Angeles baseball team. But the fans especially vibrated when she had a very tender and respectful gesture towards her child Emme. Aged 14, Emme, is one of her twins born from her union with Marc Anthony. She invited him to join her on stage to sing several hits.
Her way of presenting Emme moved the audience as she proved her open-mindedness. “The last time we performed together was in a big stadium like this. I ask them to sing with me all the time but they won’t”, explained Jennifer Lopez. The star did not use a predefined gender to name her child. The singer preferred to use the neutral pronouns “they” and “them” which are the equivalent of “iel” in French.
Emme then joined him on stage with a microphone in the colors of the rainbow flag. Emme therefore accompanied her mother on several famous titles such as let’s loud by Jennifer Lopez but also, A thousand years by Christina Perry, Born in the USA by Bruce Springsteen. Jennifer Lopez had previously sung alongside Emme during the Super Bowl. She designated her child as her “favorite duet partner”. This new pair enchanted the public.

She shared all the admiration she had for Brendon, non-binary and transgender. “It’s about accepting change and challenges with love, and knowing that anything is possible when you do it”she confided.
