The Billboard Latin Music Awards was held tonight in Miami, and tons of stars came out for the ceremonies, including Jennifer Lopez.

While she already stunned us on the red carpet, she had our jaws dropping to the floor as she performed a special tribute to the late Selena during the awards.

The “First Love” singer was joined on stage by Selena’s family to perform some of her most famous songs, including “Como La Flor,” “Bidi Bidi Bom Bom,” and “I Could Fall In Love,” while photos and clips of her were projected in the background.

This year, Selena Quintanilla-Pérez’s family and fans acknowledged the 20th anniversary of her tragic murder, including J. Lo, who originally wanted the performance to be a surprise.

She previously told Ryan Seacrest:

“We wanted to do something special and they asked me if I wanted to be a part of it. And I said of course I did,” shared the singer. “It was such an impact on my life, getting to know her and being able to play her.”
