Ethan Miller—Getty Images for ABA  by [Megan McCluskey](https://time.com/author/megan-mccluskey/)  ## Megan McCluskey Staff Writer Jul 25, 2019 6:46 PM UTC [Jennifer Lopez](https://time.com/collection/most-influential-people-2018/5217628/jennifer-lopez/) celebrated her 50th birthday on Wednesday surrounded by close friends and family. But in [typical J.Lo style](https://time.com/5626727/jennifer-lopez-carli-lloyd-lap-dance/), her gold-themed bash at Gloria Estefan’s Miami mansion wasn’t like most 50th birthday parties. In addition to a [10-tier cake](https://people.com/food/jennifer-lopez-50th-birthday-party-details-cake-food/) and a brand new [$140,000 Porsche](https://www.eonline.com/news/1059393/alex-rodriguez-treats-jennifer-lopez-to-a-140-000-porsche-for-her-birthday) courtesy of her fiancé, [Alex Rodriguez](https://time.com/5372738/jlo-arod-vmas-speech/), J.Lo marked the occasion by spending the night breaking it down to live performances by famous friends like DJ Khaled, Fat Joe and Ashanti, as well as DJ sets by DJ Cassidy and DJ Don Hot. A video shared by A-Rod on Instagram shows Lopez turning all the way up to — you guessed it — Fat Joe’s performance of “All the Way Up” while leaning over the DJ booth and whipping her hair back and forth. “TONIGHT was a Jenny from the Block party, and we took it from the Bronx all the way to the 305!!!” A-Rod wrote. “Happy 5-0, [@JLo](https://twitter.com/JLo). Te amo mucho.” It’s abundantly clear. There definitely ain’t no party like a J.Lo party. > [](https://twitter.com/AROD/status/1154280005607874561) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5635327/jennifer-lopez-birthday-party/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5635327/jennifer-lopez-birthday-party/"},"headline":"Jennifer Lopez's 50th Birthday Bash Was an Extremely Joyous Occasion","datePublished":"2019-07-25T18:46:42.000Z","dateModified":"2026-08-04T07:47:06.133Z","description":"Ain't no party like a J.Lo party","url":"https://time.com/5635327/jennifer-lopez-birthday-party/","keywords":["Newsfeed","celebrities","Jennifer Lopez","onetime"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blte1e8471db3e3267e/698a0074db29874a7f263e1e/jennifer-lopez-birthday-party.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Megan McCluskey","jobTitle":"Staff Writer","url":"https://time.com/author/megan-mccluskey/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blte1e8471db3e3267e/698a0074db29874a7f263e1e/jennifer-lopez-birthday-party.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Jennifer Lopez In Concert - Las Vegas, NV","caption":"Jennifer Lopez In Concert - Las Vegas, NV","creditText":"Ethan Miller—Getty Images for ABA","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5635327/jennifer-lopez-birthday-party/","name":"Jennifer Lopez's 50th Birthday Bash Was an Extremely Joyous Occasion"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez Are Engaged.
