Jennifer Lopez still loves being in the spotlight

44-year-old singer and ‘American Idol’ judge Jennifer Lopez – who is currently working on the talent show and filming a new TV drama feels ”more confident” than ever.

J Lo is also preparing to release her 10th album and overseeing her clothing line for Kohls – no longer worries about failing because she is always ready to pick herself up from a setback.

She said: ”I feel like I felt when I was 28. My bones don’t hurt. I feel great. I actually feel better, more confident. Of course I still have the nerves, but now I know how to control them. When I was in my twenties, I wasn’t sure of myself. Now I can really stretch. I don’t have to stay in the box. At this point I can say to myself, ‘So what if I fall, so what?’ I’m going to get back up.”

The 44-year-old star – who has six-year-old twins Max and Emme with ex-husband Marc Anthony – believes there has been a shift in recent years to celebrate older women and she thinks females in the spotlight can now enjoy longer careers.

Speaking to the new edition of Instyle mag, she said: ”The turning point was a couple of years ago when the September issue of women’s magazines had cover girls who were all over 40 – Jennifer Aniston, Halle Berry, Sandra Bullock, Julia Roberts, me.

It was hard not to be happy. That says something about our society. People used to believe their life – or at least their life as a performer – was over at 28 or some ungodly age! God, when I think of myself back then, I had no idea who I was. I think I’m barely getting that under control now.”
