Jennifer Lopez breaks down in tears in emotional first look at Netflix documentary Halftime
JENNIFER Lopez was resorted to tears during an emotional first look at her new Netflix documentary Halftime.
The 52-year-old was heavily buzzed about for an Oscar nomination for her dazzling turn as stripper turned con artist Ramona in the hit film Hustlers.
But when the singer, dancer and actress did not get included on the list, she broke down in tears, adding she felt like she had to "rethink" her Hollywood career.
It was revealed in a teaser for her new documentary that was shared on Wednesday.
In the clip, she is seen cussing before her Super Bowl halftime show saying she wants to do more than shake her "ass".
And another bonus is that her fiancé Ben Affleck is seen commenting on the enormous shaming the former Fly Girl has been hit with over the decades.

The Oscar snub is a big highlight of the clip because it was not known how much being left out affected her.
Lopez sees articles that predict that she will get Oscar-nominated for her role as a pole dancer in Hustlers.
She seems to light up at the possibility of getting that level of recognition and tells a reporter she "hopes" that she makes the list.
In her show Halftime, she added that she did not work so hard to get awards, but rather she worked hard so her fans could feel something, so they could connect with her.
The clip opens with Jennifer sweating in a crop top and leggings with little makeup on and her hair pulled back as she rehearses with her back up dancers.
A look at her preparation for the Super Bowl halftime show appears very stressful.
Lopez says she feels like she is getting pressed and then she adds: "I am trying to give you something of substance not just us out there shaking our f**king asses."
