She will be the fourth recipient of the prize, but the first ever female. Her three predecessors are Neil Diamond, Stevie Wonder and Prince.

Larry Klein said:

“Jennifer Lopez is one of the most iconic performers of her generation.

“We are thrilled to honour her historic career with the 2014 Icon Award and will be on the edge of our seats like everyone else when she takes the stage.”

Lopez also has a new album on the horizon, named ‘AKA’, due later in 2014.
