Singer, actress, model, mogul - Jennifer Lopez has done all of these things in a surprisingly short span of time. And now, she's taking a look back at part of her career with her first ever greatest hits compilation, Dance Again...The Hits, to be released in July.
From her early days as one of the "Fly Girls" dancing on FOX's In Living Color, Jennifer Lopez had quite the personality and the following. The Bronx-born performer gained critical and commercial acclaim with early film roles opposite George Clooney in Out of Sight (1998) and her Golden Globe-nominated turn as the late Tejano pop sensation Selena Quintanilla-Pérez in 1997's Selena. From there, she balanced films with a stellar pop music career, earning eight Top 10 hits (including four No. 1s) between 1999 and 2011 - all the while staying in the public eye with some high profile relationships (rapper Sean Combs, actor Ben Affleck, singer Marc Anthony) and fashion moments (a perfume line - and that infamous dress) to boot.
While the late 2000s saw her star power cool significantly, Lopez recently made an impressive comeback, joining the judges' table on American Idol in 2010 and releasing the expertly-timed LP Love? the following year. Singles "On the Floor" and Dance Again's title track - the pair of which have been heard or seen on YouTube more than 600 million times - have bought her voice back to dance clubs everywhere. And once again, it looks like the 42-year-old entertainer isn't going anywhere.
Dance Again...The Hits, to be released July 24 on Lopez's former label Epic, will be available as a standard edition and a deluxe set with three additional hits and a bonus DVD of music videos. Hit the jump to check out the track list, which is chock full of radio remixes for the most discerning of J.Lo fans.

Tom says
I cannot deny the fact that she has made some catchy songs. Certainly, her songs are perfect for the gym. Her music is a guilty pleasure of mine.
Mark says
Her killer track 'Play' is absent...and look how many 'featuring' collabs she's relied on...maybe it should be J-Lo & Friends Best of!
