Can you honestly say both of these kids would have gotten scholarships if they weren't and didn't have a connection to Jennifer lopez?

I can honestly say I have absolutely no idea how smart or capable they are, and unless you're a classmate, relative or friend of the family I strongly doubt that you do either. I didn't even know (or care) that she had kids. But I do know several people personally who got accepted to multiple schools. Speculating about this is pointless and arguing about it is even moreso.
