Jennifer Lopez first appeared in the Season Seven episode, "Fat Butt and Pancake Head". She is a parody of the real-life celebrity and is portrayed as a mean spirited, ill-tempered, egotistical, and violent woman who becomes furious when Cartman's hand puppet with the same name steals her fame and boyfriend Ben Affleck.

After years of success as a recording star, actress, and other artistic fields, Jennifer Lopez develops a raging ego and unstable temper, which begins to bother the record executives of her record label. And so when a "younger" and "spicier" performer by the name of Jennifer Lopez appears on the music scene, the executives become anxious to hire her. However, not wanting to have two Jennifer Lopezes signed to their label, they chose to fire the original one. Lopez does not take the dismissal well, blowing up into a furious rage at being told that she was fired and that she was a "mean-spirited bitch, who spits on people for being poor".

She immediately rushes to South Park, with her boyfriend Ben Affleck, so as to confront the new Jennifer Lopez. She's, however, shocked and confused to find that the new Jennifer Lopez is, in fact, a ventriloquist puppet of Eric Cartman. Initially thinking it's a joke, she becomes completely enraged when the hand insults her, to which Lopez threatens to kill her and Cartman if they don't back off. Unknown to Lopez, however, Affleck immediately becomes attracted to the new Jennifer.

Soon after, the new Jennifer Lopez begins working on her album and starts dating Affleck behind the old Lopez's back. Again falling into a psychotic fury, Lopez proceeds to attack Cartman's hand with a baseball bat, breaking several fingers in the process. However, the new Jennifer continues to date Affleck, and the two would become engaged. This finally sends Lopez over the edge, and she chases down the new Jennifer with a chainsaw, intending to kill her. The police, record executives, Ben Affleck, and the boys all chase after the two Lopezes and Cartman, and are shocked to discover that the new Jennifer Lopez is, in fact, a con-artist named "Mitch Conner". Mitch kills himself with a suicide pill, however, Lopez does not return to her music career. Instead, she is arrested for assault and attempted murder, and after being released ends up working at a fast-food taco place.

Lopez is one of the few celebrities who does not appear in the episodes "200" and "201". Instead, Mitch Conner appears again, posing once more as Jennifer Lopez.

Criminal Record[]

She has a plethora of jewelry consisting of several gold necklaces, a pearl necklace, several gold rings with jewels, a pearl wrist band, and emerald earrings. Her accessories include a white purse with a gold chain handle, white glasses, a pink fur scarf, and a white poodle with an emerald and gold necklace of its own. She has long, wavy brown hair.

Personality[]

Jennifer Lopez is shown to be aggressive, mean-spirited, volatile, arrogant, and violent. She issues threats of violence to those who she feels threatened by and has no problem resorting to violence to get what she wants. She also held a very high opinion of herself and her career and treated people deemed lesser than herself badly; according to one of her former record label agents, she is a "mean-spirited bitch who spits on people who aren't rich and famous".
