Jennifer Lopez takes the runway at the 1001 Season of Elie Saab event in Riyadh, Saudi ArabiaJennifer Lopez’s comeback to the stage was one of epic proportions.
The singer, actress and producer, 55, was among the stars taking the catwalk by storm at the 1001 Seasons of Elie Saab event in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on Nov. 13.
During the 45th anniversary runway show, the “Can’t Get Enough” singer surprised fans with a nearly eight-minute-long theatrical performance that began with her singing “I Will Survive" on a suspended platform trimmed with feathers. Lopez’s medley also included her classic hits, "On the Floor,” "Let's Get Loud” and “Waiting for Tonight.”
In true J.Lo fashion, Lopez wore a sparkly ensemble that could not be missed.
Her look consisted of a scintillating sequin fringe cape that was replaced with a furry coat midway through the sequence, only for that to be tossed aside to unveil her shimmery plunging, high-cut bodysuit underneath. At one point she even put on a sheer black feathery cape and matching hat, which she dramatically took off. She nailed her choreography in a pair of silver folder-over heeled boots.

"I am completely heartsick and devastated about letting you down. Please know that I wouldn’t do this if I didn’t feel that it was absolutely necessary," Lopez wrote of the unexpected cancellation of her tour in a statement at the time.
Since her split from the Oscar winner, 52, Lopez has been making fashion statements around the world, from her skin-baring moment at the Toronto Film Festival premiere of Unstoppable (a wrestling biopic from Affleck and Matt Damon’s production company, Artists Equity) to her latest appearance at the Nov. 9 Wicked L.A. premiere, which saw her in an abs-baring metallic cutout gown.
