Jennifer Lopez shared an emotional video to Instagram last night, asking for people's help in rebuilding Puerto Rico after the devastation of Hurricane Maria.

"What's on my mind is what's going on in Puerto Rico. The devastation is beyond belief," said Lopez, who in Las Vegas for her residency show. She said that she and her cousin still haven't been able to contact family members there.

She added, "Today, Puerto Rico needs our help. I urge you to support and donate to the efforts of the First Lady of Puerto Rico, Beatriz Rosselló. Together we can help rebuild our island and the Caribbean."

Lopez, who also stars on "Shades of Blue," asked people to donate at United for Puerto Rico.

Hurricane Maria has killed at least 15 people in Puerto Rico and 20 more in several other Caribbean islands. Reports say that it may take up to 6 months to restore power to the devastated island, which was already reeling from the effects of Hurricane Irma.

Lopez also reposted a video by her ex-husband Marc Anthony, who encouraged viewers to donate and support relief efforts as well.
