Jennifer Lopez faced some backlash with some fans who were not happy that she was chosen to perform the Motown tribute at the 2019 Grammys without having a clear connection to the genre.”The thing about music is that it inspires all. Any type of music can inspire any type of artist. You can’t tell people what to love. You can’t tell people what they can and can’t do, what they should sing or not sing. You gotta do what’s in your heart,” JLo told ET. She added that Grammys producers and Motown legend Berry Gordy were “thrilled” that she did the tribute.”They know how much I have been influenced by that music and so it was a natural fit for them. But for some people, [it wasn’t], and that’s okay. I’m just very humbled and honored to be able to have sung those songs,” she added.About the performance, Jennifer said, “It was for my mom. I could cry. It’s such a good moment. It’s just a dream come true.” Smokey Robinson also came to Lopez’s defense before her performance. “Motown was music for everybody. Everybody,” Robinson told Variety at the Clive Davis pre-Grammys party. “Jennifer Lopez growing up in her Hispanic neighborhood where ever she was … loved Motown. Who’s stupid enough to protest Jennifer Lopez doing anything for Motown?”
