Looking elegant in her evening gown, she simply sparkles!

5.  During this exceptional interview from "Entertainment Tonight" 

they catch up with the talented star, as she steps back into the

spotlight.  So many things seem to be happening all at once:  the release of 

a new album, her recent marriage, and a new-slimmer figure.  Without a doubt, 

Jennifer is "great to be back!"  Throughout this indepth interview they 

present alot of images from her past, old performance footage, photos, 

and even a recent concert engagement.  As the camera follows her along, she 

talks about her weight loss, pointing out the number of inches she has lost 

from her figure.  A very nice interview!

 

6.  "Good Morning America" seemed to pick up where the previous 

interview left off.  Covering in more detail her amazing life and career.  With 

a new album to promote, Jennifer sings "I'm on your side."

7.  Looking radiant, as always, Jennifer simply sparkles! during this particular

appearance on the "Regis and Kathie Lee" show.  You can see the happiness 

in her face!   As she lights up the room, with her incredible presence.

As the show draws to a close, she sings "I'm on your side."

 

8.  Traveling to the West Coast, Jennifer stops by the Arsenio Hall Show, 

for another delightful moment.  While he announces who is going to be

 on the show, she sings "Ain't no mountain high enough."  Afterwards,

 she steps into the spotlight to perform "I'm on your side" from

 her new album.  Before she closes the show with her version of 

"Signed Sealed Delivered" she visits with

Arsenio about many things.

9.  Appearing on the Maury Povich Show, Jennifer looks absolutely gorgeous!

Even though the last few years have been rather hard on her, she still has a

tremendous sense of humor about it all.  During this very "indepth" interview, she

talks at great length about her decision to loose the weight, and how it has affected

her career and personal life.  Both of which have had their share of ups and downs,

most notably the end of her marriage, and the less than successful last album.

But through it all, Jennifer stands tall!  In closing the show,

she sings a stirring rendition of "A dream with your name on it."

Wonderful full screen closeups!  Fabulous!

10.  Dressed in an elegant evening gown, Jennifer presents one of the awards

during this moment from the Tony Awards.

11.  Appearing on the Rosie O'Donnell Show, Jennifer is absolutely remarkable!

She simply stirs the heart, with her fabulous rendition of "And I'm telling you

I'm not going."  After her performance, they talk about many things.

12.  Returning to the stage, Jennifer performs a spirited rendition of "I believe I can fly"

on the 10th Annual Essence Awards.  Truly an outstanding performance!

13.  Making her second guest appearance on the Rosie O'Donnell Show, Jennifer

sings an amazing rendition of "I'm changing." After a short clip of her

 performance on the 1982 Tony Awards, Jennifer talks at length about what it 

was like winning the award, and "the moments" that followed.  As a "thank you" 

for her incredible support and friendship, Jennifer presents Rosie with a

very special gift, which is really touching.

14.  During an exceptional moment from "Ally McBeal" Jennifer lifts the roof off

the church, with a rousing "I'm so tired of being alone."  The choice of material

is only fitting, as Jennifer has just learned that her man has decided that he

doesn't love her anymore.  Throughout the show, we learn more about their

relationship, against the backdrop of the "main characters" who are also

facing some changes of their own.  As the show draws to a close, Jennifer

sings a heartfelt rendition of "Fools fall in love too soon."  I couldn't help

as I watched entire performance on the show, that it doesn't seem right

that someone hasn't offered her any acting roles before now, because

she is most definitely a "natural."

15.  Performing a medley of holiday favorites, Jennifer treats us to an exceptional

moment, on the Rosie O'Donnell Show.  Looking radiant as always, Jennifer simply

shines!  She is such a delight to see!  And that incredible voice!  Afterwards,

Jennifer receives a special "surprise!" from Rosie, which brings

her to tears!  And EVERYONE ELSE TOO!

This time she sings a rousing version of "Short People."

18.  With a brand new single "A woman's got the power" just being released,

a delight watching her perform!  Not to mention the wonderful interview to follow!

19.  Performing a delightful "set" Jennifer returns to the White House for

another exceptional musical moment!  Beginning with "Fascinating Rhythm"

 Jennifer displays her incredible ability to "scat" which is simply wonderful! 

Afterwards, she performs two more selections, among them, a "piano only"

version of her signature song "And I'm telling you I'm not going."

After the collection on Jennifer was assembled, I happened to come across

two more performances, that definitely need to be included!
