Jennifer Lopez teaching a lesson in pole dancing is one class that won’t dismiss early.

The Let’s Get Loud hitmaker, who recently turned 50, shows off her strength in her upcoming fliek, Hustlers.

The movie, due for release on 13 September and based on The Hustlers at Scores by Jessica Pressler, focuses on a group of strip club ex- workers who devise a scheme to steal tens of thousands of dollars from their high-profile Wall Street clients.

But ahead of the cinema debut, JLo fans have gotten a sneak peak at this talented star when she teaches her co-star Constance Wu the fine art of pole dancing.

Lopez’s character, Ramona, shows Destiny, played by Wu, the intricacies of movement on the pole, from a front hook, to ankle hook and a knee hook.

La Lopez, who is in perfect shape, does all this while clad in a G-string.

TALENTED: Jennifer Lopez stars in movie The Hustlers

JLo, who recently got engaged to her berk, Alexander “A-Rod” Rodriguez, admitted it wasn’t as easy at she made it look.

She said: “I was terrified. I felt exposed.

“I was like, ‘I’ve never done anything like this. I’m going to be up there in f*****g dental floss. What is this? Who is this person?’”

“And then you get up there, and you have to have a ‘f**k you,’ empowered attitude. You have to take your power back. You have to be so bold,” she reportedly said.

“It’s almost like when you say you’re a rock star, you have to be arrogant to go up there in front of all those people or you crumble. You realize it’s the same type of balls that it takes to do something like that. Her Hustlers co-stars include Cardi B, Lizzo, Julia Stiles, Keke Palmer and Lili Reinhart.
