Jennifer Lopez knows how to throw a party, and her mom's 80th birthday was no exception. The superstar pulled out all the stops for Guadalupe Rodríguez’s milestone celebration, hosting an unforgettable evening at the iconic Bellagio Hotel on the Las Vegas Strip. Surrounded by family and friends, the night was a glittering tribute to her mother's vibrant spirit.
Lopez, who recently gave fans a peek inside her former LA abode shared with ex Ben Affleck, took to Instagram to share snippets of the festive night. The rare family photos featured her with her sisters, Leslie and Lynda, and her teenage twins, Max and Emme. In one stand-out shot, J.Lo wore an elegant off-the-shoulder white dress, perfectly complemented by soft waves and chic accessories, including a striking Chanel bracelet.
"She was a young mom," Lopez fondly recalled about her mother, sharing insights into her Bronx upbringing. "We all grew up together. It was like living with a teenager, to be honest."
The celebration was nothing short of spectacular. Held at The Mayfair Supperclub, the night was highlighted by a dazzling three-tier cake adorned with a showgirl doll – a nod to the Vegas theme – which left Rodríguez in awe. J.Lo, ever the performer, took the stage in a stunning gold dress for a heartfelt performance dedicated to her mother.
The dance floor became a stage of its own, featuring "Lupe 80" in bright pink, as showgirls and guests filled the room with SoCal summer energy. The evening was a family affair, with Lopez’s twins also sharing touching speeches for their beloved grandmother, marking the celebration as both intimate and grand.
As the night unfolded, Lopez captured precious moments on her Instagram, sharing the joy and laughter that spanned the evening. Whether it was dancing alongside her mom or enjoying the Las Vegas skyline with family, the celebration was a testament to the strong bonds shared.
J.Lo’s sisters, each successful in their own right – Leslie as a music teacher and Lynda as an Emmy-winning journalist – were also part of the joyous occasion. It was a night where memories were made, laughter was shared, and the family came together to honor a woman who has been a pillar in their lives.
The evening wrapped up with rooftop selfies and heartfelt connections, making Guadalupe Rodríguez’s 80th a night to remember.
