Superstar Jennifer Lopez turns 50 today and she’s never looked better, either on and off the red carpet.

Long before “breaking the internet” was a thing, the actress and singer revolutionised the then fledgling World Wide Web with a memorable appearance at the MTV Video Music Awards in 2000.

Clad in a jungle-print Versace dress with a plunging neckline, Lopez generated so many searches on Google at the time that the company came up with the idea of Google Images after the overwhelming response to that history-making outfit that still stands the test of time.

Almost two decades on, her style choices are still the talk of the town.
