She sings a special song at kids graduation

Jennifer Lopez performed at a Staten Island elementary school graduation yesterday (June 17), after the students wrote her a letter simply asking for an autograph.

The singer asked to come to the graduation at P.S. 37, a school for autistic children in New York, after the 10 and 11 years, after she heard they watched her video for ‘Let’s Get Loud’ every day.

The group of eight children also learned the lyrics and dance choreography in the video clip.

On Tuesday, Lopez showed up in person to the school and performed the children’s favourite song at their graduation ceremony.

Lopez has been relatively quiet on the music front lately, having given birth to twins Max and Emme in February.
