According to a Marca report, Jennifer Lopez once confirmed that she was bullied at her young age. The actress used to play a lot of sports when she was 18 and revealed that she was regular at athletics and gymnastics. JLo was bullied for her curvy figure and was given a mean name La- Guitarra- which means ‘The Guitar’. Well, these days, she is viewed as an ideal woman and someone that many others would love to look like, but it did not seem to be the case in her youth.

However, Jennifer Lopez did not let the name-calling come her way to success. The boss babe went on to make those who bullied her feel very silly. Just two years after she suffered that traumatic experience, the actress landed the role to play Selena Quintanilla in the film ‘Selena’.
