She debuted the music video for her new song Live It Up on Friday.

And when Jennifer Lopez stormed the 2013 Billboard Music Awards stage to perform the song on Sunday night, she took a cue from her own lyrics and did just that.

Wearing billowing red feather sleeves and a high cut red bodysuit that put her famous figure on show  the 43-year-old put on a very sexy performance.

Flanked by dancers as she sang and danced, J.Lo prepared to be hoisted into the air for a special move.

One lucky back-up dancer was assigned the very important responsibility of placing a hand on each side of the pop diva’s derriere to help support her most famous asset.

Once secured in the air, Jennifer put her hands on her hips as the dancers below her gave her a boost.

In addition to the booty-baring bodysuit and bizarre feather sleeves, the star sported a pair of thigh-high leather boots that cut off her legs at the area most women are uncomfortable with – her upper thighs and hips.

A true professional, Jennifer never showed a shred of insecurity as she performed her new song.

Fans reaction to the daring costume was somewhat mixed.

While fans watching the show were vocal in  their admiration of her still stunning figure, others criticised the feather look.

‘Jennifer Lopez or a bird you decide,’ read one tweet, while another compared her to the character of the ‘Big Red Chicken’ on children’s cartoon Dora the Explorer.

Prior to her performance, Jennifer was in yet another state of undress as she paraded her voluptuous curves in a plunging gold sequin and sheer frock.

Her amazing gown hugged her figure and gave onlookers a visual of her generously proportioned derriere that they probably won’t forget.

The 43-year-old songstress may have been accompanied by Casper, but it was her most famous physical attribute that captured the blue carpet that night.

Jennifer seemed to let her famous derriere do the talking as she posed at every advantageous angle while her gold heels peeked provocatively through the sheer folds of her trailing hemline.

She wore her honey-streaked brown hair sleek and straight down her back.

Red nail polish lit up her fingertips, adding even more flash to her golden ensemble.

Jennifer carried the most petite handbag that looked like it had room for one lipstick only.

Casper made an effort to dress up, wearing a dark suit and white dress shirt with no tie.

Jennifer’s back-up dancer-turned-lover wore a pair of dark shades that he probably thought looked super cool.

Jennifer, meanwhile, wrapped up the American Idol season finale on Thursday.

The Fox network is said to be on her trail to get her to return as a judge on the singing competition next season, but Jennifer says she’s on the fence about it.

Jennifer is looking forward to debuting her new single Live It Up from her eighth album, distributed by Capitol Music, which recently signed her to a lucrative new record deal.

Can we go now: Jennifer’s paramour seemed anxious to get inside the venue, which was held at MGM Grand Garden Arena
