The beautiful snaps were captured by photographers Mert Alas, and show the 51-year-old singer in her birthday suit, wearing minimal makeup, and with her wet hair styled in waves.
In the caption, J-Lo revealed that her new single will drop later today (November 27), and as of this writing, the cover art post has already received over 7 million likes and more than 118,000 comments.

And, as expected, there were many fans who heaped praise on 'Jenny from the block', with some people on Instagram hailing J-Lo as an "inspiration".
Instagram user 'shellyviajeratravel' typed in J-Lo's comments section: "What a body mama!!! Running to the gym now!!! This is so inspiring!!!"
And another added: "Mama you're such an inspiration. Tell Em how it's done! [sic]"
Many other users also praised Lopez - a mother-of-two - for staying in such incredible shape at the age of 51.
However, Lopez is now facing a backlash for sharing the images, with some people finding them inappropriate.
Instagram user 'parisasutherland' commented: "Is this all you're about? Showing your body? Come one! Time to grow up do better, be better. This is why you can't even get Oscar nominated. Nothing you do is groundbreaking!"
And another 'tomtimberson', added: "just admit you’re 51 and start aging gracefully. the amount of photoshop you use is a straight up lie and it makes some women feel poorly about their bodies. you set a poor example for girls [sic]".
A third, 'me.lani14', added: "I didn’t want to see her like this!!!! This photo doesn’t make time stop it means she is afraid of old age. No need she has to understand that she is JLo and will stay Jlo".
Lopez also came under fire from 53-year-old Swedish-British television presenter and former model Ulrika Johnson.

Writing an op-ed piece for The Sun, Johnson said that when she saw Lopez's recent posts, her "feelings of insignificance were elevated to the very highest level."

Johnson adds: "Look, I’m no idiot. I am acutely aware these women have access to physical trainers, make-up artist, dieticians, cooks, staff... not to mention Photoshop.
"[...] But this peddling of perfection is, I believe, doing some very real damage."

Ulrika then says that her 20-year-old daughter said that the problem with social media is that "it's toxic", before adding:
"Think how it must feel for the 'ordinary' woman, working or not working, mother or not, knackered, menopausal, physically drained by housework, exhausted by caring for extended family and financial woes."
Johnson ends by saying: "Celebrities and influencers need to remember that with their platform comes responsibility.
"Creating unrealistic expectations does so much damage and this slavery to perfection really needs to end."
