Some of the Twitter users stated that it was the singer 'Ashanti singing backstage' while JLo was performing in front. Jennifer and Ashanti had a bit of a feud that stems from the fact that Ashanti sang some of the samples of songs that ended up being hit records for JLo. This has happened multiple times throughout Ashanti’s career where songs intended for her, were handed off to Lopez. People on Twitter made use of this information and rolled out memes with the Ashanti reference. You can see them here.

During her performance, Jennifer yelled Let's Get Loud, in reference to her 1999 song, and people thought she is trying to bring back her old song and market it after more than 20 years of its release and also, following her 'Let's Get Loud' moment, JLo made a statement in Spanish which again made Twitter take notice again. A user by the name of Sarah Kaplan shared a picture of her amused cat after JLo's live performance. You can see the memes here.
