Jennifer Lopez has asked that her child be referred to using they/them pronouns instead of “she.” These days, Lopez can barely lift her head in public when out with her teenager. Born in 2008 during her marriage to Marc Anthony, the child was once expected to be J.Lo’s mini-me — but their current appearance has sparked surprise and mixed reactions.
Lopez and Marc Anthony, once one of Hollywood’s most talked-about couples during their 2004–2014 marriage, welcomed twins together. Despite their high-profile split, the public remains fascinated by their children — especially Emme, who is now old enough to express their individuality.
Born alongside a twin brother, Emme has emerged as one of the most unique celebrity kids. Many online speculate that Emme, like Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, has chosen to express their identity in a more gender-fluid way, sparking conversations about self-expression and acceptance.
Emme favors baggy clothing, avoids makeup, and proudly sports a short haircut. Recent paparazzi photos captured Lopez and Emme together, with some observers noting that Lopez seemed uncomfortable, even if she publicly supports her child’s journey. While J.Lo has stated she fully respects their choices, some feel her expression tells a more complicated story.
As social media reacts, comments range from criticism to support:
“Poor J.Lo! Those superstar genes are in hiding!”
“Don’t be so quick to judge — they might just shine in their own way!”
