Jennifer Lopez’s Pals Fear ‘She is Self-Medicating’ With Alcohol
J Lo was clobbered a major backlash in 2023 when she launched her alcohol line. Fans slammed her venture as a “cash grab” due to her long-time rep as a teetotaler.
Critics also felt the launch was insensitive due to her then-husband’s well-known issues with alcohol and multiple rehab stints.
But J Lo quickly shot back that after years of avoiding alcohol she’d taken up social drinking.
She explained: “I know that a lot of people have been talking about like, ‘Oh, she doesn’t even drink. What’s she doing with a cocktail line?’
“That was true for a long time. I didn’t drink. A few years back, as you will see from several photos of me out over the past ten, maybe 15 years, I have been having the occasional cocktail. I do enjoy the occasional cocktail.”
