From international musicians to Oscar-winning Hollywood stars, Jennifer Lopez’s dating history is not entirely relatable to the average person.

However, JLo proved she still understands what women really want when she revealed what she really finds “sexy” in a man during her performance at the Dolce & Gabbana fashion show in Sicily.

The iconic singer and actress insisted her love really doesn’t cost a thing because, for her, the sexiest thing a partner can do is be thoughtful and helpful, such as “seeing them make the bed in the morning” or “wash the dishes”.

During her performance, JLo told the crowd, “You know what really makes a man attractive? It’s not the watch. It’s not the car. It’s not the private jet. It really isn’t, although that’s nice.

“It’s seeing them make the bed in the morning or wash the dishes for you when you’re tired at night. Now that’s what I call sexy. Because ladies, you know, we do all the things. We do all the things.”

Per reports, Jennifer’s declaration - like her performance - seemed to hit all the right notes as she was met with applause.

So while it’s not known if JLo is dating again after her divorce from Ben Affleck, it would seem that potential suitors now know what they need to do to woo the Hustlers star.

For now, based on recent comments made in interviews, Jennifer is quite content to be by herself, choosing to take away some lessons from her break-ups. She told the Subway Takes YouTube talk show, "I just feel like the biggest growth spurts I've had emotionally, mentally, psychologically have always come from a heartbreak.

“And that's not just in romantic relationships, that's in work heartbreaks, all of it. It's the only time you dig. You’re like, 'What the f*** happened? How do I do this? Why do I keep doing this? Or why didn't that happen? What could I have done better?' You change yourself."

In another recent appearance on Kelly Clarkson’s chat show, Jennifer hinted that she’s in no rush to meet potential husband number 5. When asked what's next for this stage of her life, she replied, "What is my life going to be? Free!"

And her recent social media snaps revealed just what that entails for a superstar like her.

Enjoying quality time with herself and her family, JLo shared snippets of her Dolce & Gabbana trip, including celebrating a joint birthday with her sister, Lynne. Sharing numerous glamorous shots of the pair soaking up la dolce vita, Jennifer wrote, “A double birthday sister trip is always a good idea! I love you Lynnie!”

One of the photos showed Jennifer, in the bath, eating cake with her sister who is sitting on the bathroom floor. Freedom certainly looks good!
