JLO Trends On Social Media After Sharing Her Go-To Bodega Order Growing Up In NYC!

Cousins!! Jennifer Lopez is currently on social media after sharing her go-to bodega order growing up in The Bronx as a kid!

Within a now-viral clip from her movie, ‘This Is Me….Now: A Love Story’ JLO is asked to recall her go-to order from her days of living in The Bronx area of New York City.

The 54-year-old says she used to order a ham and cheese on a roll, a small bag of chips, and an orange drink’— while nodding to the camera and saying, “If you know, you know.” 

According to the NY Post, the resurfaced clip comes from her 2022 interview with Vogue for their “73 Questions” segment series.

Social media users and New York residents have been deep in the debate regarding JLO’s bodega order as they call out the authenticity of her childhood growing up in The Bronx, down to her ‘orange drink.’

“JLo is in her mid-50s. Her ham & cheese bodega order is typical for someone of her age group who grew up in the Bronx in the 70s and 80s. Chopped cheese originated in the 90s after JLo left the Bronx. I can’t believe she is being told she is not from the Bronx by people who were born there in the late 90s,” wrote one Twitter (X) user.

“Saying Jlo isn’t really a New Yorker bc she said she would order a ham & cheese sandwich and not a chopped cheese is CRAZY😂 she’s 54! That didn’t exist back then and I’m born and raised in NY and a ham and cheese is my go to from the bodega, y’all are crazy😂,” reads another tweet.
