2001: As good as it gets Lopezs second album, titled J.Lo, debuts at No. 1 the same week her film The Wedding Planner is No. 1 at the box office. J.Lo gives the singer and actress a steady progression of singles. Lopez ditches Puffy when he is arrested on weapons charges. But she doesnt need him. She doesnt need anyone. Shes on top of the world! (Henny Ray Abrams / AFP)
2007: Jenny at a crossroads Lopez releases her first full Spanish-language album, Como Ama una Mujer, which feels a tiny bit pandering, but the album is No. 1 on the U.S. Top Latin Albums list for four weeks straight and sets the record for sales of a Spanish debut album. The film El Cantante, however, is a bust, with both Lopez and her costar-husband getting lambasted by the Latin Salsa community. Lopez still has projects in the works, but her career could go either way. (Matt Sayles / AP)
