Breaking News: Jennifer Lopez speaks out after death of hairstylist Jesus Guerrero with lengthy statement….Read More

Jennifer Lopez has paid tribute to Jesus Guerrero days after his death at the age of 34

The popular celebrity hairstylist’s unexpected death was announced by his sister, Gris, on February 22.

He had been working with the “Jenny From The Block” singer in Abu Dhabi just days before his passing as she performed for Saadiyat Nights.

Alongside a black and white image of the talented hairdresser, JLo wrote: “It’s no surprise your mother gave you the name Jesus. You were gentle and kind and loving, quiet and unassuming, but so powerful, and your presence was felt the minute you walked into any room.”

She continued: “You never demanded the spotlight. You never needed to make a sound to be recognized, your heart and your talent did that as effortlessly as you artistry did. I’ve been having trouble putting the words together the last few days. The truth is I’m still in shock that such a beautiful young life has come to an end. It seems senseless and unfair.”

Jennifer concluded: “I know your family is brokenhearted as am I and everyone else who knew you. Your spirit moved on to the next phase beyond this life but I know wherever you are there is beauty and light. And the beauty and light you left here will live on forever. Rest in peace, sweet angel.”

Her social media followers mirrored her statement by writing: “Rest in peace,” along with prayers for his loved ones.

The star had last tagged Jesus in a social media post on February 19 with her glam team as she’d done her hair for the event.

Gris’ announcement of her brother’s death read: “It is with a heavy heart that we let the world know that Jesus Guerrero has gone to heaven. He is a son, a brother, an uncle, an artist, a friend, and so much more.”

She added: “Unfortunately, his passing came very suddenly and unexpectedly. Currently, his family is taking care of his personal belongings and accommodations to bring him home to Houston.”
