Jennifer Lopez has revealed she suffered from anxiety attacks after first finding fame.
The sexy star admits she found it difficult to deal with people recognising her.
She said: "I was like, 'Oh my God, I can't walk down the street without people knowing my name, knowing things about me. They were full-on anxiety attacks - you feel like you're going to have a heart attack."
Although she still occasionally suffers from anxiety attacks, J.Lo now says she is able to deal with them.
She added: "They occur once in a while but now I can control them. I know how to calm myself down. I'm more at peace."
The beauty also revealed how she was inspired to be a performer after seeing classic Hollywood musical 'West Side Story'.
She told Britain's InStyle magazine: "I remember watching Rita Moreno in 'West Side Story' and going, 'That's what I want to do. I want to perform, I want to sing, I want to dance and I want to act.'"
