Jennifer Lopez’s sexiest swimsuit looks

Jennifer Lopez has obviously found the magic recipe for looking youthful. Decade after decade she continues to turn heads with everything she wears—especially her swimwear. Jen has shared some sexy and sizzling photos of herself wearing absolutely gorgeous bathing suits, and there's no denying that she looks amazing in every single swimsuit she wears! Honestly, the woman would look fantastic in a paper bag.

The Marry Me actress is the definition of disciplined, and she's proof that self-care pays off in the long run. She's been an athlete and a dancer since she was a teenager, and the results of a lifetime of exercise are so clear.

It goes without saying that Jen also has the means to eat well all the time and hire the best trainers around, but no amount of money can buy the dedication it takes to stick to a balanced lifestyle day after day.

When she first became famous, she got a lot of attention for her curves, and she's since revealed she was also the subject of tons of criticism. "They'd say, 'You should lose a few pounds,' or 'You should do this or do that.' It finally got to the point that I was like, 'This is who I am. I'm shaped like this,'" she told InStyle in May 2018. "Everybody I grew up with looked like that, and they were all beautiful to me. I didn't see anything wrong with it. I still don't!"

Her incredible confidence and pride in her Puerto Rican genes has helped a lot of women and Latinas around the world love who they are. "So many people have come up to me over the years—famous people, people I meet on the street, fans, everybody—and they say that very thing: 'Thank you so much. I have the same type of body. I used to think I was fat, but now I feel beautiful,'" she told the magazine. "I wasn't really trying to send a message. I was just being myself."

We are so proud of J.Lo for staying true to herself, all while inspiring us to love our bodies exactly as they are and motivating us to treat our bodies with love by leading healthier lives. Take a look at some of Jen's most jaw-dropping and sexy bathing suit pics through the years, and you'll see there's no doubt that she knows just how to turn up the heat.

In 2022, J.Lo is looking slim and naturally fit.

At 52 years old, in 2022, J.Lo has slimmed down a bit from her earlier days, and her body is looking naturally fit. In between projects at the time, she looks like she's been in maintenance mode and loving life. We love this casual summer glow.

She never looked more glam than she did on this yacht.

Back in 2021, Jen went on an epic yacht trip through Italy for her birthday, and she wore so many gorgeous swimsuits. She looks so expensive and glamorous and just like she's living the most luxurious life, which of course…she is.

This neon bikini complements her tan perfectly.

We are obsessed with neon bikinis, and it might be all J.Lo's fault. This bright hue really pops against her caramel brown tan. She managed to look both comfortable and sexy in this shot from her Italy trip.

She is a goddess!

These images were taken for the May 2021 InStyle beauty issue, and they are amazing. First of all, the bathing suit that Jen is wearing makes her skin glow even more than it usually does. It suits her perfectly. Second of all, we have no second of all, just WOW!

She's never shy about getting cheeky.

Nowadays, ample booties are celebrated and adored, but when Jennifer first started out, that wasn't the case. Still, she never tried to hide or downplay what has become one of her most famous assets.

Are we green with envy?

No, we know how hard Jennifer works at everything she does, and all we can do is stare in amazement. She didn't get those muscles from sitting around and doing nothing, so how could we possibly be envious?

Yup, that's some motivation.

Just days after performing on New Year's Rockin' Eve, Jen was back on the beach offering up some #MondayMotivation in a teeny, tiny red string bikini and a printed kimono-style cover-up, rocking her natural curls. Her body was on point as usual, but her message and the sheer happiness on her face made her all the more sexy.

Well hello, gorgeous!

Here, Our Lady of Fitness is serving up "vacation vibes" like nobody's business—from the print on her tiny bikini to the glow of her skin to that faraway look that says, "Don't bother me; I'm thinking about something deep and meaningful." Wherever she is, we wish we were there.

She's always golden.

You've heard of the photography term "golden hour" when the sun is just so and everything looks like it's sparkling a bit. Well, J.Lo lives in a perpetual golden hour, but here she is lying on the beach in a cute pink print bikini, taking advantage of the actual golden hour. She wrote in the caption: "Feeling golden. ✨ Holding on to the last few moments of summer … #GlowCheck."

We love her hair like this!

J.Lo is giving us some major carefree energy in this pic of herself as she kicked off summer 2020. She wore her hair out, and it looked gorgeous with its natural curvy waves. "First weekend of summer #VibeCheck," she captioned the post.

She looks great in a classic.

Jen showed off her petite figure in a one-piece classic Guess bathing suit, and she looked beyond amazing. Sure, the world may have slowed down at the start of 2020, but that doesn't mean the singer takes any time off when it comes to her fitness.

She celebrated Earth Day by the pool.

The star tried to get in touch with nature on Earth Day in April 2020 by taking a dip in the pool with her natural hair and wearing a gorgeous simple white bathing suit. "Mother Earth …. Be conscious of how you treat her. Love her and she will keep you forever. #HappyEarthDay," she captioned the post.

She showed off her rock-hard abs.

The actress was enjoying some much-deserved time off in February 2020, after she had quite an eventful start to 2020. J.Lo shared this mirror selfie of herself wearing a tiny white bikini that showed off her killer body. "Relaxed and recharged," she captioned the steamy pic.

This steamy video of J.Lo is everything.

No one showcases their bathing suit pics quite like Jen. For this Instagram post, she stepped it up a notch and shared a closeup video of her curves in a white cutout bathing suit. "No one likes a shady beach… ," J.Lo captioned the sexy post in March 2020.

Her legs are a testament to her strength.

You don't get legs like that from lying around soaking up the sun all the time, like she is here during the summer of 2019. Nope—Jennifer dances and exercises like crazy to achieve those gams.

Here she is poppin' out of a white bandeau.

Alex Rodriguez posted this picture of his lady love while she was finishing up her 2019 It's My Party tour because he missed her so much and couldn't wait to see her again. Uh, can you blame him?

This is what 50 looks like on Jen.

Jennifer Lopez is 50 years old in this picture. Yes, 50! And she looks incredible. The way this bathing suit fits her is proof that you don't have to wear a tiny bikini in order to look sexy at the beach. It showed off her curves, while still keeping it PG rated.

She even makes a sweatshirt look sexy.

Sweatshirts aren't really known for being sexy beach attire, but they are when Jennifer wears them. This picture was posted on August 2, 2019, and shows Jen in the Mediterranean.

This isn't Jennifer.

This is Ramona. Well, it's Jennifer as Ramona in the movie Hustlers. When she posted this picture of herself in character on set in March 2019, you could almost hear the sound of collective jaws hitting the floor.

Jen said everything was just peachy in her life when she shared this pic.

Jen had stars like Kim Kardashian, Paris Hilton, and Rosario Dawson going crazy in her Instagram comments with their reactions when she shared this fire photo of herself in a peach one-piece suit in September 2018.

She also shared one of herself lying down.

She looks amazing, and orange is definitely her color! We've grown to get used to this amazing golden tan that Jen usually rocks, and this shade of orange suits her so perfectly. Everything about this look is on point, from her hair to her makeup and, of course, her toned muscles.

This picture caused quite the reaction from her fans.

Jen headed out to a tropical vacation for her 49th birthday and showed off her abs of steel while taking in some sun. Jen is in the best shape of her life, and she's not afraid to show it off while wearing some gorgeous bathing suits.

All we can do is stare in amazement.

That teeny-tiny black bikini with white trim is barely covering her, but she looks super confident wearing it around her friends and family. We would be, too, if we looked like THAT!

While her abs look fascinating, we would be remiss to ignore the rest!

Her thighs are so muscular and strong, and her arms and shoulders are super defined. You can tell J.Lo works those muscles hard. Do you think she's ever considered putting out her own line of workout videos? We'd totally work out with her.

The singer was "feeling sexy, youthful and happy" in a black one-piece.

Jen was featured in the Hot Bodies issue of Us Weekly magazine in 2015, and she looked incredible in the multiple bathing suits she wore for the shoot. We're surprised that the magazine doesn't feature her every single year for that issue.

This throwback of a younger Jen reminds us that she's always had it.

She took this photo in the Bahamas in 1997, and that sheer coverup on top of a high-waisted white bikini makes this pic even sexier! The white-on-white effect is really great—not to mention it shows off her golden skin wonderfully.

She looks great in a simple white bikini top.

Jen enjoyed some sunshine in a white bikini and her signature shades on May 5, 2016. We've seen Jen in so many bathing suits that it makes us wonder if she has an entire closet dedicated to them or if she keeps them all for future use.

She wore a nude bathing suit on the set of her video for 'Live It Up.'

Jen was spotted filming the video in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, in 2013, and looked absolutely incredible. The bathing suit's color matches her skin so perfectly, it's almost hard to tell where it ends and where she begins.

Who looks this good while lying out by the pool?!

Why, J.Lo, of course. Look at her being all retro glam with a modern twist! Those sunglasses are fantastic. This picture is from June 2016. The caption reads, "By the pool for my girlie Tera's Bday!! #familia #lasvegas #AllIHave."

This mirror selfie made us all do a double take.

While we're unsure if this is a bodysuit or a swimming suit, Jen looked absolutely gorgeous in this black one-piece. If it's a bodysuit, she should get a bathing suit that looks just like it.

Jen slays even when she's on mommy duty.

During a trip to Rio de Janeiro with her then-boyfriend Casper Smart and her kids in 2012, Jen wore a white bikini. Pulling that color off is not easy, especially when it's a bathing suit.

She looks glamorous at the beach.

Jen was soaking up some sunshine in Miami while wearing a tiny white bikini top paired with a red headscarf and matching lipstick. Hmmm, maybe we should be wearing lipstick at the beach sometimes, too, if we feel like it.

She sometimes wears bikinis as her outfits.

J.Lo slayed in this denim bikini in her video for "I'm Gonna Be Alright" in 2001. What's great about Jennifer and her sense of style in general is that she takes risks and those risks always seem to work on her. She's not concerned about sticking to one style; she works them all.

She makes dressing up a swimsuit look easy.

She posed for pics to model her Giuseppe x Jennifer Lopez collection with Giuseppe Zanotti, and she showed off a gorgeous pair of heels paired with a sexy one-piece black suit.

Here's another angle.

She did the photo shoot for Harper's Bazaar and the photos were breathtaking. Come to think of it, does Jen ever take a bad picture? If she does, we've never laid eyes on one.

Our Jen loves bathing suits so much, she even performs in them.

We totally don't blame her. We'd love to have that kind of confidence. It might not be appropriate for us to wear a bathing suit at a bake sale, but we could certainly show up to everything in our lives with that kind of confidence.

Of course, her signature gigantic sun hats had to make an appearance.

She paired the orange hat with a matching bathing suit for the Prince Royce "Back It Up" music video. She posted this clip of the video on June 9, 2015. Can we take a moment to acknowledge that this woman is ALWAYS working?

She's a reminder that you don't need to wear a bikini to look sexy.

She looked incredible in this emerald green one-piece with a plunging neckline for a shot with Us Weekly. She shared this image back June 2015, but you could have told us it was her yesterday, and we would believe you.

She left us in awe when she posed for Self magazine in 2014.

Her abs looked ON POINT! The truth is that all bodies are beautiful, and you don't have to look like J.Lo to feel stunning. What we most appreciate about Jennifer is her confidence and strength. She is never shy or frail or trying to hide her shine.

A younger Jen looked absolutely stunning in this throwback pic she shared.

J.Lo shared the throwback in 2014 to let us know that she missed summer. Same! Watching this woman kill it career-wise has been amazing. She's always doing something, finding a way to be creative and be seen.

She wore a black-and-white one-piece in her 'Booty' video.

And, of course, she had to highlight her famous booty. Can you blame the woman for being cheeky? For those of you out there too young to remember, it's important to point out that back when J.Lo started, big booties did not get the love that they do now. She never tried to hide her assets, though.
