Jennifer Lopez was glimpsed this Wednesday heading to the El Capital Theater in Los Angeles to tape an interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live!.
The 49-year-old bombshell wore a plunging white top with a grey trouser suit, tying on a matching grey cloth belt that dangled down to knee level.
Sweeping her hair back into a ponytail, she could be glimpsed taking shelter under an umbrella being held by a gentleman beside her.
Publicity rounds: Jennifer Lopez was glimpsed this Wednesday heading to the El Capital Theater in Los Angeles to tape an interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live!
J-Lo went for a minimal look where makeup was concerned, accessorizing with aviator sunglasses and Le Vian diamond earrings, and rounding off the look with black leather platform boots.
Her talk show appearance comes after she gave a tribute performance for Motown’s 60th anniversary at Sunday’s Grammy Awards.
The gig attracted online backlash before it occurred, owing to the fact that she is not black and was never signed with Motown.
She was defended by Motown icon Smokey Robinson, who slipped into a snappy scarlet and black suit and joined her onstage for the tribute.

Before the performance took place, Smokey had told Variety: ‘I don’t think anyone who is intelligent is upset. I think anyone who is upset is stupid.’
‘Motown was music for everybody. Everybody,’ said the Since I Lost My Baby and The Way You Do The Things You Do songwriter.
‘Who’s stupid enough to protest Jennifer Lopez doing anything for Motown?’ said the record label’s former vice president, noting her upbringing ‘in her Hispanic neighborhood’ with regard to the question of authenticity.
Still more affirmation came from Motown founder Berry Gordy, who could be seen smiling in evident enjoyment in the audience.

Jenny From The Block also shared the stage during her medley with the evening’s compere Alicia Keys for Papa Was A Rollin’ Stone, War and Square Biz.
As the tribute wore on, Jennifer leaped up onto a pink piano and lay on her back, singing up a storm as Ne-Yo accompanied her at the keys for Another Star.
Her setlist on Sunday included such Motown hits as Do You Love Me?, Please Mr. Postman, Dancing In The Street and The Best Things In Life Are Free.
Smokey and Jennifer sang a duet of My Girl, a legendary song he helped write for The Temptations 55 years ago – on Sunday, he sweetly substituted ‘Jen’ for ‘girl.’
