Jennifer Lopez has posted a video of an intimate moment she shared with her daughter before the Super Bowl halftime show.

On Sunday evening, Lopez and Shakira pulled out all the stops for their show-stopping Super Bowl performance.

Lopez’s daughter, 11-year-old Emme Maribel Muñiz, made a surprise appearance during the spectacle, joining her mother on stage to sing her 1999 track “Let’s Get Loud”.

On Monday, as Lopez reminisced on the-praised show, she shared a behind-the-scenes video captured just before she went on stage.

In the video, which was shared on her Instagram account, the Hustlers star kisses her daughter on the forehead, before holding her in a tight embrace.

She and her daughter then walk together towards the stage, before Lopez joins her backing dancers to lead a motivational pep talk.

Muñiz jumps around and claps in excitement near the end of the video, moments before her mother takes her place on stage.

In the Instagram caption for the video, Lopez explained that she hopes girls around the world feel “proud of everything they are”.

“These moments were captured just minutes before we hit the stage last night,” the singer wrote.

“All I want my girls, the little girls on stage with me and all over the world to know is how to use their voices and be proud of everything they are.

“We are proud to recognise that all of us together are what makes this beautiful country truly great.”

Lopez’s shares her twins, Emma and Maximillian Maribel Muñiz, with her ex-husband, singer Marc Anthony.

Anthony praised his daughter on her Super Bowl performance, tweeting: “Emme Daddy is so proud of you. You are my [heart emoji] and I am forever yours.”
