Jennifer Lynn Lopez

Lopez has been widely recognized for her sex appeal, allowing women with curvaceous figures to be accepted. Details magazine named her the "Sexiest Woman of the Year" in 1998, and she led FHM '​s "100 Sexiest Woman" list twice. In 2011, she was named the "The Most Beautiful Woman" by People. In 2012, Complex placed Lopez second on their list of "100 Hottest Female Singers of All Time", writing: "Lopez has dominated the entertainment industry and become the archetypal sexy singer." The following year, VH1 ranked her the fourth on their list of "100 Sexiest Artists", while Vibe magazine named her the most "lustable" celebrity of the past twenty years. Lopez is known for her fashion sense, and has changed her personal appearance multiple times, scoring several different looks over the duration of her career. Her style is described by Billboard '​s Lauren Savage as scantily clad. However, Lopez has been criticized by the animal rights organization PETA for inclusion of fur in her fashion lines and outfits. She has also received bad publicity over rumors that she is a demanding diva though constantly denies this. Lopez has also admitted to having a "less-than-perfect" public image, attributing this to aggressive roles which she played in the films Angel Eyes and Out of Sight. The media often draw comparisons between Lopez and actress Elizabeth Taylor, due to her numerous failed relationships. In fact, Lopez has been dubbed a "modern-day Liz Taylor" by the media. Lynn Hirschberg of W notes her image to contain "razzle-dazzle", and compared her public persona to that of Taylor.
Legacy and cultural influence
Regarded as the most influential Hispanic performer in the United States, Lopez has often been credited with breaking racial barriers in the entertainment industry. The Record newspaper stated that she was responsible for the introduction of Latin presence in the film industry. In Icons of American Popular Culture: From P.T. Barnum to Jennifer Lopez (2009), author Robert C. Cotrell describes Lopez as the Hispanic version of Oprah Winfrey, stating that she is the embodiment of the American dream, "Boasting a far more authentic rags-to-riches tale" as a "multidimensional artist who had turned into a financial powerhouse". In 2012, Forbes opined that Lopez "may be the most powerful entertainer on the planet". Her critically acclaimed performance in the film Selena profoundly effected younger Latin performers, with Lopez emerging as "one of the first in a generation of women in entertainment to create a veritable empire". Lopez is the highest-paid actress of Latin descent, while also regarded as the wealthiest actress in Hollywood. Writer Priscilla Peña Ovalle wrote that Lopez "has arguably become the century's most successful Latina". Miriam Jiménez Román stated in The Afro-Latin Reader: History and Culture in the United States (2009) that "she was able to traverse the difficult racial boundaries". As a result of launching a career in music, Lopez's influence over the Latin public grew; she played a part in the "Latin explosion" that was occurring in entertainment at the time. Around this time, the emphasis on Lopez's curvaceous figure grew; scholar Sean Redmond wrote in Stardom and Celebrity (2007) that this was a sign of her role and social power in the cultural changes occurring in the United States. The Daily Herald described Lopez as "crossover royalty". In February 2007, People en Español named her the most influential Hispanic.
