Jennifer Lopez is a doting mum to twins Emme and Max, 12, and recently got to witness just how much she means to her fans after watching her daughter get overwhelmed with emotion meeting her idol, Billie Eilish.

The Jenny from the Block hitmaker took Emme to see Billie in concert prior to the coronavirus pandemic, and opened up about meeting her backstage during an appearance on fiancé Alex Rodriguez and Big Cat's podcast, The Corp.

When asked which young talents she finds inspiring, she replied: "Billie Eilish. My daughter is in love with her. We had a real moment at the Billie Eilish concert that was like, 'Oh my god, we're bonding right now. It's amazing.

"I watched my daughter freak out over Billie Eilish… She walked in the room after the concert, and my daughter goes [gasps]. And I looked at her, and I'm like, 'What's the matter?' and she's literally in tears because she's idolised this girl. For whatever reason, her songs and the words she says, she connects to, and she loves her style. Whatever it is moves her," J-Lo said.
