Why Jennifer Lopez went 25 years without driving
Singers Cardi B, Mariah Carey and Christina Aguilera also prefer not to drive
It is no surprise that Jennifer Lopez belongs to the select club of celebrities who don’t like to drive. Singers Cardi B, Mariah Carey and Christina Aguilera also prefer not to drive, but that doesn’t mean they don’t have an impressive collection of cars, as evidenced by their photos on social media.
Jennifer Lopez also has an enviable collection of cars, even if she is rarely seen behind the wheel. In fact, the famed singer and actress went 25 years without driving, despite having her driver’s license. Her reason was as simple as it was obvious: she simply prefers it that way
Like Mariah Carey, Jennifer Lopez likes to either be chauffeured by a private driver or to sitting next to her partner. She and her husband, Ben Affleck, who got married last year, are often seen riding together in one of her cars. The singer, of course, sits shotgun.
But Lopez broke her driving spell in 2019 when she was gifted a Porsche 911 Carrera GTS for her 50th birthday. The red convertible was a present from her then-partner Álex Rodríguez, and had been personalized just for her. It even had a “JLo” license plate.
But the Porsche is not the only exclusive model in JLo’s garage. The singer also owns a Rolls-Royce Ghost, a Rolls-Royce Phantom Series II Drophead Coupe, a Cadillac Escalade and a Bentley Continental GTC. That’s on top of the Mercedes, Tesla and Audi cars in her collection.
