AceShowbiz - Jennifer Lopez has found her missing family in Puerto Rico days after the hurricane. "After a long 6 days we found the last of the family! Now the rebuilding begins!!" the singer/songwriter told her online followers on instagram.
J.Lo posted a clip of her uncle Tomas and aunt Adela Rios. They thanked their superstar niece for locating them and making sure they're okay. "I'll never forget how good she was with us, especially my brother," Tomas Rios said.
The Latin musician has been very vocal about the crisis in Puerto Rico. She donated $1 million dollars and teamed up with ex-husband Marc Anthony to launch an initiative urging people to help relief efforts. She is also signed on for Jay-Z's Tidal benefit concert and has made donation to Houston community following Hurricane Harvey.
She recently slammed President Donald Trump over his response to San Juan Mayor's plea for help. She shared a picture of Mayor Carmen Yulin Cruz waist-deep in flood waters while shaking the hand of a man in a kayak. The photo is posted along with an image of Trump playing golf.
Mayor Cruz said on Friday, September 29, "I am begging, begging anyone who can hear us to save us from dying. If anybody out there is listening to us, we are dying, and you are killing us with the inefficiency and the bureaucracy." She added, "I am done being polite. I am done being politically correct. I am mad as hell."
Trump fired back at Twitter, "The Mayor of San Juan, who was very complimentary only a few days ago, has now been told by the Democrats that you must be nasty to Trump. Such poor leadership ability by the Mayor of San Juan, and others in Puerto Rico, who are not able to get their workers to help. They want everything to be done for them when it should be a community effort. 10,000 Federal workers now on Island doing a fantastic job. The military and first responders, despite no electric, roads, phones etc., have done an amazing job. Puerto Rico was totally destroyed."
Meanwhile, Trump said earlier this week, "This is an island sitting in the middle of an ocean - and it's a big ocean, a really, really big ocean." He echoed his statement at a speech later in Washington, "This is an island surrounded by water, big water, ocean water." He added that the local goverments had been "totally and unfortunately unable to handle this catastrophic crisis on their own - just totally unable to."
