Jennifer Lopez celebrates twins Emme and Max's 18th birthday

Jennifer Lopez shared an emotional Instagram tribute to her twins, Max and Emme, on their 18th birthday. The intimate video montage, set to One Direction’s “18,” collected moments from their childhood, including Emme’s surprise appearance with Shakira during Lopez’s Super Bowl LIV halftime show.

Lopez recalled giving birth to the twins in the middle of a New York City snowstorm: “It was as if God was making sure you would enter a world full of pure magic!!” She wrote that holding them felt like holding “two angels sent straight from heaven above,” and affectionately called them her “coconuts.” “It has always been the three of us!!

We have been on this journey together,” she added, promising, “no matter how big you get, that’s how it will always be.” The twins made a rare red carpet appearance with Lopez at the New York City premiere of her film “Kiss of the Spider Woman,” where she posed with them on the carpet.
