Don't be fooled by the rocks that I got I'm still, I'm still Jenny from the block Used to have a little, now I have a lot !!

Oh ffs! 🙄

Baby Yoda looks a lot different than I remember

I should sue for the time of my life lost and the price of a ticket to that horrible movie

That movie was trash!

100% agree with the lawsuit if all claims are true. 100% think she should drop it and call it even because they casted JLO to play her instead of someone representative

That evil thing called money It ruins lives

Melted sex doll?

If her body is as effed up as her face is, her show days are over. She’s probably suing because she needs income.

She must need more money to appease her habit of horrible plastic surgery...

Just be happy they used Jlo to portray u cuz u look more like Renee from mob wives

Someone start a Go Fund Me Page for her. She REALLY need $ to reverse that plastic surgery...if it's not too late.

What happened to that ladies face someone hustled her on surgery

I found the film boring. However, I would sue too !!!!!!

So Not only does jennifer steal other artist music she also steals other ppls real life stories and pays them no credit for her inspiration behind the story.

Jesus look at that face 🤭

Movie was an eye opener for me the deceit of all the women who got away drugging maxing our credit cards and no police protection for men no reason there’s got to be a movement for men who has been sexually abused

She mad that movie was horrible

Oh Lord so much to discuss; the lips, the neck, the uneven eyebrows, the wonky nose... Botched is back on TV btw.

Yeah good luck with that 🙄

🤦

Go BLOW a John!!!

Whoever worked on that face should be sued.

It's her story.....

She should be lucky they picked a sexy woman like Jlo to play her, because....anyway

Lmao
