Jennifer Lopez is not looking forward to becoming an empty nester. The superstar, 56, got emotional while talking about her 18-year-old twins Max and Emme going away to college during her Wednesday appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
After Kimmel brought up her kids graduating from high school, she warned, 'Don't talk about it, I'll start crying.' Lopez added that she has been 'crying for two months' and will shed tears again at their graduation ceremony.
The singer told Kimmel that Max and Emme, who attended different high schools, will also be going to different colleges. She plans to help them move into their dorm rooms. Though many freshmen make last-minute Target runs for dorm essentials, Lopez assured Kimmel the twins already have everything they need and will simply pack up their rooms and move in.
The conversation kicked off after Lopez entered to enthusiastic applause from the audience, prompting Kimmel to quip, 'You probably get that when you come home, your family stands up and applauds, right?' 'Listen, if my kids come to the door, I feel so lucky,' Lopez replied.
She then told him that one of the twins will be graduating on Thursday. 'They go to different schools. That's inconvenient, isn't it?' Kimmel questioned. 'I mean, it's fine,' she said, adding, 'I want them to be happy. Go where they want to go, do what they want to do.'
'There's a commotion everywhere you go. Will you be able to move them into their dorm?' Kimmel asked. 'Absolutely,' she said. 'I do all the things, yeah.' 'You will go to Target with them and buy them sheets?' the host asked. 'We have sheets,' she replied, before sharing that she hopes the twins will miss her and come home soon. 'We're going to pack up their rooms here, and they're going to take all the things that they want to take to their dorm. Then they're going to realize that their dorms are too small. They're going to miss home. I hope they want to come back real soon.'
The star had a busy Wednesday, as she also glammed up to appear at the 25th edition of the Los Angeles Latino International Film Festival, held at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood.
