<p id=”par-7_60″>Kim Kardashian has been one of Jennifer Lopez’s biggest fans for years. In 2015, Kardashian referred to Lopez as her “idol” in a photo on <a href=”https://www.instagram.com/p/2SZ-3nOSza/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Instagram</a> of the two of them walking arm in arm at the Met Gala.

<p id=”par-9_70″>“Oh, I’ve met Kim many times,” Lopez said. “She tells me all the time that I’m her idol and stories about when she used to follow me when my first album was out, and stuff like that. It’s really sweet. She’s a sweet girl, and it’s very flattering to meet any of your fans! She’s always been very open about that and it’s very flattering to me; she’s a sweetheart.”</p>
