( April 29, 2011 — New York, NY ) The countdown is on — to the May 3rd in-store release date of LOVE?, the seventh studio album from Jennifer Lopez, containing her RIAA platinum worldwide #1 smash single "On the Floor" ( featuring Pitbull ) , and her brand new second single, "I'm Into You," ( featuring Lil' Wayne ) which impacts this week at Urban and Rhythmic radio formats. The video for "I'm Into You" ( directed in Mexico by Melina ) will have its television premiere on May 2nd when JLO appears on NBC's The Today Show in New York — the first time that a video has ever premiered on the program. The clip will debut simultaneously online at VEVO, the world's leading all-premium music video and entertainment platform, offering free, ad-supported music programming everywhere the fan is.

In support of LOVE?'s release, a number of high-profile appearances are planned for JLO in Los Angeles and New York over the next two weeks. It all begins this Friday, April 29th with JLO's helicopter arrival at The Grove, L.A.'s famed shopping mecca at Beverly & Fairfax, for the "On the Floor" Dance Party. The fan-centric event — including a Q&A session with JLO, a performance by the American Dance Crew dancers, a L'Oreal-sponsored fashion segment, and more — will be broadcast exclusively on May 4th as a half-hour special on NBC's nightly Extra.

The 'official' LOVE? album Hollywood launch event will take place on the evening of Tuesday, May 3rd, in the giant courtyard of the Hard Rock Café at Hollywood & Highland on the legendary Walk Of Fame. In addition to autographing copies of LOVE? for fans, JLO will also be donating personal memorabilia to the Hard Rock.

On May 5th, JLO will take time out from her judging duties on FOX's American Idol for her live performance of "On the Floor" ( with Pitbull ) . Interview-only appearances by JLO will continue on May 6th ( a full-hour special on NBC's Access Hollywood Live ) ; May 9th ( NBC's The Tonight Show with Jay Leno ) ; and May 10th ( NBC's Ellen, TBS's Lopez Tonight, TBS's Conan and full-hour Fuse special ) . And then on Sunday, May 22nd, JLO will perform on the Billboard Music Awards ( ABC ) live from Las Vegas.

International superstar Jennifer Lopez brought the Island Def Jam Music Group its latest RIAA platinum record, when "On the Floor" surpassed digital sales of 1 million copies in the U.S., after surging to #1 on both the Billboard Dance Radio and Dance Club charts. With over 70 million radio audience in the U.S. alone, "On the Floor" is also a certified worldwide smash — hitting #1 on iTunes in 17 countries.

"On the Floor" ( co-written and produced by RedOne ) and "I'm Into You" ( written by Taio Cruz, produced by Stargate ) set the stage for next week's release of LOVE?. In addition to RedOne and Stargate, producers on the new album include Tricky Stewart, The-Dream, Danja, D-Mile, and Radio. Lady Gaga also collaborated on two tracks, "Hypnotico" ( which she co-wrote ) and "Invading My Mind" ( which she co-produced ) . LOVE? is executive produced by JLO, RedOne, and Antonio "L.A." Reid.

The final track list sequence for LOVE? is: 1. On The Floor ( featuring Pitbull ) * 2. Good Hit * 3. I'm Into You ( featuring Lil' Wayne ) * 4. ( What Is ) LOVE? * 5. Run The World * 6. Papi * 7.
