Turns out they actually invited some of her friends to gather around in their cars for a party.

It's not easy celebrating a birthday during this rare period where people are practicing social distancing due to shelter-in-place orders taking place in most states. While most people spend their birthdays surrounded by friends and loved ones at parties or by going out to eat, those types of celebrations are not allowed right now. People are getting creative, doing birthday parades with cars, and parties on video conferences.
They brought the cake to what looks like a park.
A video from one of the party guests has been circulating of J.Lo getting ready to cut the cake. While the attendees seemed to stay in their cars. Still, there were a lot of people in the area surrounding the cake. Each car seemed to be occupied by a group of at least a few people.
J.Lo was spotted out and about at the party.
The singer, who has been advocating for people to stay home, was spotted at the party. While we are used to seeing her looking glamorous whenever she steps out, she donned a more casual look than usual, wearing a pair of white shorts and a matching top.
Jen was wearing a mask some of the time.
The Hustlers star was spotted at the party along with her kids and soon-to-be stepkids. The birthday girl, Ella, was smiling from ear to ear wearing a birthday sash. The actress is being criticized for wearing a mask at the gathering while the kids weren't.
A-Rod and Jen only shared photos of the cake.
The couple, who usually share a lot of their lives with their kids with their fans on social media, only shared photos and videos of the cake and of them spending time together in their backyard. Ella deserves a celebration, but we're sure she would have been just fine if her birthday party was postponed for a while so everyone in attendance could be safe.
