Jennifer Lopez Just Served Up the Ultimate Fashion #TBT

Posted by
Jennifer Lopez has come a long way since she was Jenny from the Block, not least of all in her fashion sense. These days, her wardrobe is more polished than streetwise, but every now and then, she’ll throw it back in a look that magically combines both. That’s what she did earlier this afternoon when she stepped out in New York wearing a heather grey tracksuit that felt like a modern, grown-up take on the bubblegum-pink Juicy Couture velour separates she made famous in her 2001 music video, “I’m Real.” Lopez’s sweats were trimmed in a metallic side stripe, which elongated the silhouette and added a diva-appropriate touch of shine. She kept the tone-on-tone message going with silver mirrored shades and suede ankle booties with exposed zippers. The choice of shoe felt more sophisticated than a sneaker, and she took that idea and ran with it by carrying her trusty  Hermès Birkin  instead of a gym tote.

UFC 216: Twitter Reacts to Tony Ferguson's Victory Over Kevin Lee

Ferguson nabs the interim title.


Saturday night, fighters Tony Ferguson and Kevin Lee descended upon Las Vegas’ T-Mobile Arena to compete for the interim lightweight title at UFC 216. Ferguson arrived into the match up with a record of 23-3 while Lee entered with a 16-3 record, and it would be in Round 3 that Ferguson would submit Lee in a triangle choke finish, forcing Lee to tap out at the 4:02 marker.
"This fight went exactly the way I wanted it to be,” Ferguson declared at the match’s end. “I wanted him to come out at me and use all that aggression and leave nothing left for that submission."
"I knew he was going to be slippery and I knew he was a game opponent and was going to be tough," he added. "I just knew I had to weather the storm and he was going to keep using that energy, so I pissed him off more so that he would use it."
Lee, who had actually struggled to make the weight cut, still managed to pull out a decent performance despite entering the Octagon on Saturday with a staph infection, as evidenced by a red blotch on his chest.
"The staph was bothering me throughout the weight cut," Lee said. "I damn near killed myself making the weight. I think it's time for me to go up [to welterweight]. The staph infection was a little too much for me to handle. I should've been on antibiotics but what can I say?”
"Tony was the better man tonight,” he added of his opponent. “Whatever I'm going through, don't take away from what he did. His bottom work, he's the man. I hope he goes out there and gets the job done."
All the while Ferguson had his mind on other things following his win, directing his energy toward Conor McGregor soon after, having less amicable words for the fighter. “Where are you at McNuggets? You fucking piece of shit. I'm going to kick your ass," Ferguson said in the microphone following his victory, challenging McGregor. "You better come and fucking defend that belt. Defend or vacate motherfucker.”
"It's my time and my belt,” he declared. “Come and get this shit.”
Naturally, Twitter’s reaction to the fight and aftermath can’t be missed. Check out the top responses below.
