Yes, Jennifer Lopez Still Lets Loose on the Dance Floor

Just hearing what all Jennifer Lopez has going on right now will exhaust you. The multihyphenate performer recently began judging season three of World of Dance, which airs Sundays on NBC. She's in the midst of planning her summer tour, It’s My Party: The Live Celebration. Oh, and she's about to celebrate her fiftieth birthday. Throughout her nearly 30-year career in entertainment, every gig has something in common: an emphasis—and passion—for dance.

"The tour is going to be a very special moment in time," Lopez tells Glamour. "It's a big birthday for me, and I couldn't think of a better way to celebrate it than with my fans dancing and singing every night for some 20-something shows." (Tickets for the tour will go on sale sometime in March.)

In this celebratory spirit, we asked Lopez 10 big questions about her personal world of dance, and her answers shed more light on the pop icon we know and love. Check them out for yourself, below.

Glamour: Is there a dance move you've seen on World of Dance that wowed you so much you want to learn it yourself?

Jennifer Lopez: There are so many [where I'm like], "I wish I could do that. I need to learn that." I think just the style of hip-hop right now is what really fascinates me: how quick and fast they move and how isolated the movements are.

What are the best shoes to go dancing in?

JL: For me, sneakers.

Do you prefer dancing on your own or with a partner?

JL: I like dancing with someone, but on my own.

Do you have any sweat-proof makeup tips for people who want to go hard on the dance floor?

JL: No, you just have to let the glisten happen. There's no way to keep your makeup together—if you're really dancing. There's no way. Be sexy!

Is there a choreography breakdown in one of your videos you're most proud of?

JL: I kinda like all of them! It's hard to pick just one. I've had a lot of dance breaks.

When was the last time you were able to let loose on a dance floor?

JL: The Oscars.

What would you eat to fuel a long night of dancing?

JL: I don't really have a pregame food. I don't think you want to eat too much before you dance.

You're getting ready before going out dancing. What music are you listening to?

JL: We put on a lot of hip-hop when we're getting ready.

What's your favorite dance movie?

JL: West Side Story.

Did you go to your high school prom, and if so, what did you wear?

JL: Yes, I went, and I wore a dress that I designed myself and had made by a local seamstress. It was a lace halter dress with a fishtail at the bottom. It was hilarious.
