Run for cover, alert the authorities: Jennifer Lopez has "let the beast loose"

  • June 17, 2014
  • Brad O'Mance

Jennifer LopezJ To The Jennifer 'Lo' Lopez, aka The Inelusive Chanteuse Jennifer Lopez, has said that her last world tour helped her get rid of the meta­phor­ical cage she'd put round herself in the studio and "let [the] beast loose".

Having a chat with someone from Billboard about her new album 'AKA' etc, the 'Louboutins' hitmaker credited the tour with allowing her to do a bit more of the singing.

"After I got home, I realised I was a stronger vocalist than maybe even I gave myself credit for," she explained.

"I never put myself out there to show the world what I could do in the best way I could. And touring, you gain a lot when you go out there every night and sing when you feel good, or even when your voice is scratchy and you feel a little off."

But what about the cage stuff?

"It made me want to get back into the studio without that cage I had put on myself. Once I let that beast loose, I was doing things I didn't know I could do."

Blimey.
