jenny from the block 

A term referring to someone who fronts like he/she is down with the hood but has in reality led a privileged upper- or upper-middle class existence for most of his/her life. Comes from the ridiculous song of the same name by J-Lo, who is a known prima donna and knows next to nothing about life in the ghetto.
Dave (after making shot and getting fouled): "And one."
Kevin: "What?!? Like hell I fouled you on that!"
Dave: "Who cares, man? I schooled your ass anyway. Count it."
Kevin: "Whoa. You better check yo self, dogg. You can't be calling that shit in street ball games. Somebody would bust a cap in your ass. You're lucky I didn't pack heat today."
Dave: "Ha, like you know anything about street ball."
Kevin: "I've been around, man. I used to play in a game where like half of the people were black."
Dave: "Wow. Did you really just say that?"
Bill: "Yeah, I bet you got into some really rough games growing up in that $5 million mansion in Atherton."
Kevin: "Whatever. I also played ball with our landscapers all the time as a kid and they were straight from the barrio, muchachos."
Dave: "Dude..."
Bill: "Give it a rest, Kevin. Nobody buys your bullshit. We all know you're a total jenny from the block."

Jenny from the block 

Poor girl who becomes very rich and famouse overnight. If you have zero talent, then a great ass is all you need. Derived from Jennifer Lopez who has the best ass in pop.
Jennifer Lopez had a little, now she has a lot.

Jenny from the block 

A white girl who has overnight stardom, but still thinks she from the hood. Will do anything for 50 cents and wants to stay with the Hood life. Probably has a business that is extremely shady and low key gives good dome.
Jenny from the Block will give you a good time for 69 cents

Jenny from the block

A woman who has achieved massive success but never forgets her roots. She’s a "baddie" who balances being street smart and book smart, staying humble and authentic while running her empire. She doesn't need a designer label to know her worth, but she’ll rock one anyway.
"Don't let the glow-up fool you; she’s still Jenny from the block at heart—always keeping it real with the people who were there from day one."
