Just one week after Jennifer Lopez released the first music video for “Can’t Get Enough” from her highly-anticipated new album, This Is Me …Now, she’s back with the official trailer for the film that will accompany the LP.
Described by Prime Video as a “narrative-driven, cinematic original,” the film stems from the “heart, soul, [and] dreams of Jennifer Lopez.”
“I know what they say about me, about hopeless romantics,” Lopez, 54, narrates in the two-minute trailer. “That we’re weak and I’m not weak. I learned the hard way—not all love stories have a happy ending.”
As fans follow along in her discovery of self-love while navigating romantic love, the rom-com queen has enlisted the likes of her longtime friend and fellow Bronx native, Fat Joe, to appear as her therapist. Elsewhere in the preview, the singer’s friends host an intervention because they feel she’s addicted to sex, but instead she’s actually addicted to love.
Trevor Jackson, Keke Palmer, Sofia Vergara, Jenifer Lewis, Jay Shetty, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Kim Petras, Post Malone, and even Lopez’s husband Ben Affleck are all set to be featured in the Dave Meyers-directed movie.
Snippets from the film can be seen in the “Can’t Get Enough” video as well.
This Is Me…Now was first teased on Bennifer’s first wedding anniversary in August 2023. Its predecessor, This Is Me…Then, was released in November 2002 as their relationship initially began. As she penned “Dear Ben, Pt. 2,” on Instagram, the mother of two wrote, “Dear Ben, Sitting here alone/ Looking at my ring ring/ Feeling overwhelmed/ It makes me wanna sing sing/ How did we end up here/ Without a rewind/ Oh my/ This is my life.”
Additional track titles like “To Be Yours,” “Mad In Love,” “not.going.anywhere.,” and “This Time Around” confirm that the Gone Girl actor and their love story are still Lopez’s favorite topics of discussion.
Perry Farrell has released another public apology following an on-stage confrontation involving his bandmate Dave Navarro.
The Jane's Addiction frontman was involved in a physical altercation with guitarist Dave Navarro last year during a live performance, an incident that prompted the band to cancel their reunion tour and eventually led to their split.
“I'd like to address what happened on stage last year,” Perry, 66, said in a statement shared across both his personal Instagram account and Jane's Addiction’s official page. “I've reflected on it and know I didn't handle myself the way I should have. I apologize to our patrons and my bandmates for losing my temper and for disrupting the show.”
He went on to admit that he did not meet fan expectations and described himself as deeply remorseful toward everyone impacted by the incident.
“Jane's Addiction has been at the center of my life for decades. The band, the songs, the patrons, and the impact that we've had on music and culture mean more to me than any words I could ever possibly write down,” he shared.
“My aim has always been to give our audience the best possible show, something real, honest and positive. In Boston, we fell short of that, and I'm truly sorry to everyone who was impacted.”
Jane's Addiction also issued its own statement regarding the altercation, which ultimately led to the group’s remaining members filing a lawsuit against Perry alleging assault, battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, negligence, breach of fiduciary duty, and breach of contract.
“Today we are here to announce that we have come together one last time to resolve our differences, so that the legacy of Jane's Addiction will remain the work the four of us created together,” the band wrote, signaling that the group would not move forward with Perry. “We now look forward to the future as we embark on our separate musical and creative endeavors.”
