Jennifer Lopez jets out of LAX after dazzling American Idol finale crowds

She commanded the stage with her show-stopping performance on American Idol on Thursday evening.

And Jennifer Lopez’s number one fan – boyfriend Casper Smart – was out in force to support her after the show. 

The 29-year-old dancer dropped the star, 46, off at LAX airport following the triumphant finale episode and she later jetted out of the city with her two children.

She seemed in sprightly spirits as she sauntered through the airport, her hand softly clasping her daughter Emme’s.

The Play hitmaker – who sizzled in an embellished frock during her final turn as a judge on the talent competition – dressed in a less glitzy, though nonetheless stylish, look for her flight, which saw Jennifer cross the pond and head to London.

The Boy Next Door actress took to the skies in a simple white top, which she paired with grey flared trousers that skimmed the floors as she walked, despite the beauty also slipping her feet into skyscraper heels.

She completed the chic look with a herringbone jacket, while toting her essentials in a tan leather handbag, over which a fur scarf was draped.
