A Celestial Call from J.Lo
In an unexpected turn of events, Trevor Noah found himself on the receiving end of a call from none other than Jennifer Lopez. The South African comedian, known for his wit on “The Daily Show,” was stunned when he got the “random call” inviting him to appear in Lopez’s upcoming Prime Video musical film, This Is Me…Now: A Love Story.
A Prank or Reality?
Noah, 39, shared his disbelief, stating, “That was a random call where your phone rings, and it’s Jennifer Lopez, and you’re like, ‘This must be a prank.'” Despite his initial skepticism, the comedian agreed to do a cameo in what Lopez described as a visual experience. “I mean, I don’t know what I’m doing, but OK, I’ll join in,” Noah exclaimed.
A Star-Studded Affair
Lopez, 54, has assembled an impressive cast for This Is Me…Now: A Love Story. Alongside her husband Ben Affleck, the film features a lineup of celebrities, including Fat Joe, Kim Petras, Post Malone, Keke Palmer, Sofia Vergara, Jenifer Lewis, Jay Shetty, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Sadhguru, Derek Hough, and more. The movie, set to accompany Lopez’s new album release on Feb. 16, promises a journey through dreamscapes and real challenges in the pursuit of love.
Secrets and Surprises
Despite his involvement, Noah remains in the dark about the project’s details. “I’m really excited to see what it is. The funny thing is I don’t know too much about it because they were very secretive about how they did it,” he revealed. “I too am waiting to see what it’s going to be.”
J.Lo’s Teaser: “Can’t Get Enough”
Before the full film release, Lopez teased fans with a clip doubling as the music video for the album’s lead single, “Can’t Get Enough.” The snippet showcases Lopez tying the knot with various men, each relationship ending in disappointment.
Noah’s Grammy Excitement
As Noah anticipates hosting the 2024 Grammy Awards, where his special I Wish You Would is nominated for Best Comedy Album, he expresses his enthusiasm for the event. “I don’t think there are many shows that can rival what the Grammys puts on in terms of a collection of artists,” he remarked. The ceremony, set to air live on CBS at 8 p.m. ET, promises a stellar lineup, including Dua Lipa, Burna Boy, and Billie Eilish, making it a concert experience like no other.
In the midst of the mystery surrounding This Is Me…Now: A Love Story, Trevor Noah and his unexpected journey with Jennifer Lopez add an intriguing chapter to the excitement of 2024.
