Jennifer Lopez has come under criticism from her fans after it’s been revealed her new single, Ain’t Your Mama, was worked on by producer Dr. Luke, who has been accused of sexual abuse by singer Kesha.
The 46-year-old singer performed the song at the American Idol finale this week and fans were quick to take note of the controversial collaboration – Dr Luke is the same producer that Kesha accused of drugging and sexually assaulting her, claims he has called “outright lies.”
Shortly after taking to the stage, her final appearance on American Idol as a judge arguably stole the show, Lopez tweeted that her single was available for download but some fans used that opportunity to voice their disappointment.

Others called for a boycott of the song because of the Dr. Luke connection:
