“Omigod that is so exciting! Wait, who’s giving us an award? National Organization of Woman? That’s a real group?” was J-Lo’s surprised reaction when a reporter gave her the news that she has been named co-winner of the group’s top award this year. She will share the honor with Iggy Azalea for their music video “Booty”. A NOW spokeswoman said, “I know Beyonce has been a big influence and is very deserving, but when you see something as empowering as this video, you just want to thank the strong women who made it. As an organization, we have been struggling for almost 50 years to get men to pay attention to us and treat us equally both in the home and in the workplace. We have been getting there slowly, but they have knocked it outta the ballpark with this song! With one video these ladies have gotten that message across. You want some of this? You better treat us right!….So succinct. So strong. So clear!”
