J-Lo... just...

Sometimes we like to think we're perceptive enough about music and the music industry to suggest things that might save flagging pop careers. In J-Lo's case we just... we just don't know. It's so difficult in a post-GaGa, post-Rihanna, post-Beyoncé pop landscape to envisage people like J-Lo getting by and making hits, even with deeply contrived and flimsy alter-egos like 'Lola' pandering to the current trend for 'high concept pop'.

Once upon a time you could release a sub-standard pop dirge, put on a netted tank top and flash a bit of thigh and get a hit. Not now. Well at least J-Lo's got her 'films' hasn't she? She used to be quite good at those (*looks on imdb... she has no projects lined up: despairs*).
