Who is JLo’s niece?

The JLo chewing gum controversy
A video recently went viral in which the singer is seen spitting gum into an assistant’s hand. This was seen by many as a “lack of appreciation and respect”.
However, a user named Tnassiri claimed that she was the woman who received the gum from the actress and told her version to stop speculating. He noted that the incident happened in 2017 during the filming of the movie “Second Act” in New York’s Flatiron District.
“In principle yes, I have a handkerchief in my hand. “I worked with Jen for several years as her assistant on the set (…) Jen often chews gum before sets out of respect for her co-stars, so I always had paper towels and tissues to help her dispose of them.”
Before shooting one of the scenes, the assistant would have approached so as not to delay the shoot.
“I came in quickly and I held out my hand (with a paper towel) for him to throw away easily. (…) I couldn’t just walk into a trash can (we were surrounded by a crowd), so to keep things moving, ‘spitting’ the gum on the paper towel in my hand was the best option”, he said.
