She went from "Jenny from the block" to Jenny getting blocked.

Earlier today, queen-of-all-media Jennifer Lopez tweeted a snapshot from a performance of her new single "Love Makes the World Go Round," on NBC's Today. Lopez co-crafted the single with Hamilton star Lin-Manuel Miranda. Along with the snapshot, she wrote, "#AllLivesMatter #LoveMakestheWorldGoRound."

Of course, #AllLivesMatter is the ignorant response to #BlackLivesMatter, and the derailing hashtag usually only pops up when racists want to stop a conversation about justice in its tracks.

Lopez deleted the tweet within minutes, but not before people dragged the chanteuse on social media anyway.

But for now, there's a resounding echo of "I don't know her" bouncing across the internet.
