I took a sneak peak at Hustlers this week and thoroughly enjoyed the movie, based on the real life story from Jessica Pressler’s New York article “The Hustlers at Scores,” I was anticipating Jennifer Lopez’s performance in this movie because it is not every day that you see a 49-year-old woman crushing a pole dance for millions of people. I have been in awe of JLO’s work ethic for a long time and she is a huge inspiration to me!
I was completely fascinated by the story and thought it asked/commented on a lot of ethical gray areas especially for women in the sex industry. I did think it shone a light on the ups and downs of stripper life, where one moment it could be completely glamorous and powerful and the next horrible and demeaning.
JLo recently posted a video of how she prepared for her electric pole dancing scene in the movie. She’s got over a decade on me and is in amazing shape! Definitely #goals!
In honor of Hustlers, I’m doing a giveaway with some movie swag! You can win the prize pack pictured below (the sports bra and tank are mediums and the shorts are large). Enter below and tell me what you thought of JLO’s performance.
