Jennifer Lopez in Fortaleza
Jennifer Lopez is in Fortaleza for the second performance of her début Brazilian Tour. JLo will sing and dance tonight at the Art Music Festival in front of 27,000 fans. Ivete Sangalo and bands Dexterz and Arsenic will also appear. JLo performed in São Paulo last week, drawing mixed reviews from the 15,000 attendees at the Pop Music Festival.
After leaving the beach, the group made their way on foot to a sidewalk café on the Avenida Beira Mar. Without too much fanfare, Jennifer and family took a table overlooking the sea where they savored regional foods.
According to host Marciano Fernandes, Jennifer asked to sample all the seafood dishes including the traditional crab drumsticks. She also tried the bean soup and pork chops stuffed with potatoes. The singer and her group spent 40 minutes at the restaurant and rang up a tab of R$853.38 reals (about $425 dollars).
The American star’s simplicity impressed businesswoman Carol Nascimento and daughter Clarisse, big JLo fans, who were in the restaurant. “She is super simple. He played with the children. Her boyfriend did not stop playing with the kids. She even said she wanted the same dish that she saw the waiter bringing me,” she told Gabriela Alves, reporting for G1.
Carol said that she was among the very first to buy tickets to see the international pop star at the music festival. Mother and daughter will attend tonight’s performance together.
Jennifer Lopez left the café with her daughter Emme in her arms, passing through throngs of fans waiting at the entrance, but she did not stop for photos. From the restaurant, she returned to her hotel with boyfriend and children.
