LAS VEGAS: Jennifer Lopez surprised guests at the 17th annual Latin Grammy Awards Thursday when she performed with and presented an award to her ex-husband Marc Anthony.
She described the father of her 6-year-old twins as “a living legend” as she presented Anthony with the Latin Grammy Awards’ Person of the Year prize.
“He’s not only the person of the year, he’s the person of all time,” Lopez said.
Anthony, who was feted in a separate ceremony Wednesday, dedicated his award to his five children and “to all those people who told me I would never make it.”
The couple performed “Olvidame y Pega la Vuelta” together Thursday. Anthony also sang “I Need to Know.”
The Latin Grammy Awards were presented at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas and broadcast live on Univision.
Lopez had a busy couple of months with her NBC show “Shades of Blue,” a recently launched shoe collaboration with Giuseppe Zanotti and resuming her Sin City residency in December.
But experts believe the juggling act is something the legend is used to.
The “Jenny From the Block” singer recently revealed in an interview that she wore a big white fur coat while in labor with her twins, Max and Emme — so yes, she’s #GOALS in every sense of the word.

Policewoman honored for soothing crying baby when her mother fell unconscious at Beirut airport
- ISF honors first adjutant for comforting and feeding baby-milk to scared infant whose mother was rushed to hospital
- Social media users praise policewoman for her ‘humane and empathetic’ act after photos went viral
BEIRUT: A Lebanese policewoman who comforted an infant and fed her milk while her mother was hospitalized after falling unconscious at Beirut airport was honored for what social media users dubbed a ‘humane and empathetic’ act.
First Adjutant Nadia Nasser was on duty when the unidentified baby’s mother suffered a sudden illness and fell unconscious at a checkpoint inside Beirut International Airport earlier this month.
Photos of Nasser holding the months-old baby in her arms, preparing a milk bottle and feeding her went viral across social media, where users described the policewomen’s act as ‘motherly, compassionate and humane’ behavior.
Brig. Gen. Moussa Karnib of Lebanon’s Internal Security Forces honored Nasser on Friday for caring for the infant for almost two hours at the airport after her mother was rushed to a hospital.
A media statement said the first adjutant was honored upon the directives of ISF’s Director General Maj. Gen. Raed Abdullah, after she took personal initiative on Feb. 2 to comfort the infant.
Commenting on Nasser’s photos that went viral, a user called Sami said she should be promoted for her ‘selfless and empathetic’ act.
Another user, Joe, commented: “She should be rewarded.
“This is how loyalty and love for one’s job and country are built,” wrote a user called Youssef.
Media reports said that when the incident happened, the baby’s fear and cries prompted Nasser to take the initiative to comfort and remain beside her until her mother’s condition stabilized.
ISF’s statement did not clarify whether Nasser and the baby accompanied the mother in the ambulance or how they were reunited later.
