She makes it known where she comes from and never forgets the sacrifices her parents made to leave their home country and go to America. She displays her Latin side with pride and shows her roots in any way she can through her music.

Talented From The Beginning

In the early '90s, Jennifer Lopez started her career in the entertainment industry as a backup dancer for the boy band, New Kids On The Block. Since then, Jennifer has found herself getting many opportunities to ditch the backup gig and do her own thing. She was featured in many movies and started her own music career. Jennifer was very talented as a young girl and knew she had what it takes to make it to the top. Similar to Jennifer, Camila also knew she was talented at a young age. After auditioning on the music show, X Factor, Camila found success when she was introduced to her group members of Fifth Harmony. This newfound success meant Camila had to leave high school and focus on her music career.

Found Themselves On Top of The Charts

Jennifer Lopez has been in the number one spot on the Billboard chart more than once and many of her songs have been listed on the chart.

Not Afraid Of A Little Hard Work
