Jennifer Lopez: My style is a mix of Jackie O and Madonna


JENNIFER Lopez's (pix) style is a mixture of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Madonna and Ava Gardner.
The 43-year-old singer - who has her own fashion range for Kohl's - revealed she takes inspiration from the three very different style icons.
She said: "If you mix Jackie O with Madonna in the '80s and Ava Gardner, that would be kind of like my style."
Like Madonna, 54, Jennifer is known for her provocative stage outfits, but she is regularly commended for her red carpet style - much like former US First Lady, Jackie, and Old Hollywood actress, Ava, were.
No matter what she wears, the singer-and-actress insists it's important to carry every outfit off with confidence.
She explained: "You just have to decide what you feel most confident in, because confidence is what makes people sexy. You have to be you but don't get stuck."
The 'Live It Up' hitmaker also discussed the evolution of her style, revealing she still retains her street style but now mixes it with high-end fashion.
She told American OK! magazine: "I grew up in the Bronx, so my style had a more urban, hip-hop influence.
"My fashion for music and the red carpet was influenced as I got into the business and exposed to different designers and travelling. I kind of mesh all that together." – Bang Media

The Making of Madonna’s First Album Cover

Carin Goldberg — the art director behind Madonna’s debut album cover — spoke to  the Cut  about her first experience with the then-unknown pop star. It’s the first question that anybody asks me, even today: What was it like to work with Madonna? People think that maybe something dramatic or interesting or kind of wild might have happened, based on, you know, Madonna’s persona. But I would say that Madonna was probably the easiest job I ever had — the most cooperation from a recording artist I think I ever had. She was a true professional, even at that young age. It was ’83, and at that point I had my own small design firm. Warner Bros. called and asked me to do her cover as a freelance designer. When I got the call, I rolled my eyes, because it was another [musician with a] one-word name. At that time it had become cliché to have a one-word name, because of Cher, so I remember thinking, God, it’s going to be one of those. So I really went into it with very little expec...

On July 10 1985, The Playboy magazine issue of nude Madonna photos was released !!

Playboy  publishes nude photos of  Madonna  taken before she was famous. The singer did a number of nude photo shoots from 1977-1980, starting when she was an 18-year-old student at the University of Michigan looking for some extra cash and trying to form a band. Now a huge star,  Playboy  publishes some of the shots taken in 1979 and 1980 in a revealing spread. A year earlier, the magazine turned down nude photos of Miss America winner  Vanessa Williams , which their rival  Penthouse  published. "We think Vanessa genuinely didn't know what she was doing, didn't know her photos might be published," the article states. "Madonna, on the other hand, posed repeatedly for two noted photographers who routinely publish what they shoot." One of the photographers, Lee Friedlander, says of the shoot: "She seemed very confident, a street-wise girl." Madonna has little to say on the matter, but doesn't shy away. "I'm not ashamed,...
