We already know that Leos appreciate the art of birthday celebrations, but Jennifer Lopez—the ultimate Leo—just took that to a whole new level.

Yesterday, the actress threw the most lavish birthday party in the history of birthday parties to celebrate her 50th year. Clothing companies PrettyLittleThing and Quay Australia sponsored the fete, which took place at Gloria and Emilio Estefan’s private home on Star Island in Miami. There was gold and white decor, a towering multitiered cake, a bustling dance floor, and a star-studded guest list, including friends Ashanti and DJ Khaled. At the end of the night, a spectacular fireworks show lit up the sky.

“Hi, baby girl. Just wanna wish you a happy birthday,” he says, looking into the camera. “I cannot believe this, baby girl. Since we’ve been together, you have made me feel like every day is my birthday. Thank you for your passion and your energy and your inspiration and your endless pursuit to be the best at everything that you do. You’re simply the best partner in life, the best daughter, the best mother, the best performer. We love you. Your fans love you. Your children love you. And I love you. Let’s make this birthday a very special one. Te quiero mucho, macha.”
