Jennifer Lopez was the consummate professional as she soldiered through a hilarious hair mishap on Saturday Night Live.
The 54-year-old pop diva was on the program giving a televised debut to her latest single Can't Get Enough from her next album This Is Me… Now.
Joined by Latto and Redman, the Selena star whirled around the stage, demonstrating her barnstorming talent as a dancer.
But amid her frenetic choreography, she evidently had a problem with one of her hair extensions – prompting her to pull the piece out right there onstage.
In spite of the eye-popping snafu, she refused to be stopped in her tracks, continuing with the number as if nothing had happened.

Jennifer modeled a flesh-flashing ensemble that allowed her to showcase her enviably sculpted dancer's body, baring her taut midriff.
Her luxurious hairdo flew around her head as she threw herself into her dance – right before a chunk of her locks wound up on the floor.
This week's episode of Saturday Night Live was hosted by The Bear actress Ayo Edebiri, a move that set tongues wagging because of Ayo's past remarks on JLo.
Back in 2020, when Ayo was 24 and not yet a star, she appeared on the podcast Scam Goddess and joked that JLo used ghost singers on her studio recordings.
Ayo was scathing about Jennifer's capabilities as a singer, dismissing the Jenny From The Block hitmaker's career as 'one long scam.'
The barbs resurfaced and went viral this week in the lead-up to Saturday Night Live, setting the stage for a potentially awkward encounter between Ayo and JLo.
In a sketch during the episode, Ayo apparently addressed her past comments with an aside about learning to be more 'thoughtful about what we post online.'
At the moment, JLo is gearing up for the release of her upcoming album This Is Me… Now, a sequel to her 2002 album This Is Me… Then.

This Is Me… Then contained songs about Ben Affleck, with whom Jennifer was carrying on a whirlwind romance that culminated in an engagement.
They broke up in 2004 but got back together in 2021 and ultimately tied the knot the following year, becoming an exalted Hollywood power couple all over again.
JLo's new record will arrive alongside a companion film whose contents remain a mystery, but that will in some way revolve around her marriage to Ben.
'As artists, we have to follow our heart and this is me following my heart and doing something that maybe everybody didn’t think was the best idea, but I had to do it,' said Jennifer, whose new album will also be about the marriage.
She declined to specify whether the movie will be a documentary or a scripted project, preferring to leave the reveal until the picture comes out.
'You have to see it and you’ll have to experience it to understand it,' the Jenny From The Block hitmaker deftly teased in an interview with Variety.
