Lizzo has responded to concerns regarding her role in Jennifer Lopez’s current musical film, This Is Me… Now. In a TikTok video posted on Thursday, Lizzo revealed that she was never invited to appear in the film, despite assertions from producers that she was not available.
Lizzo addressed the subject directly in the short video, saying, “Ain’t nobody told me nothing,” as reported by Truth Hurts. Nobody asked me. “J. Lo, I love you.”
The clarification follows Lopez’s documentary, which revealed that other A-list celebrities, including Lizzo, were approached for cameos but declined due to scheduling difficulties.
However, Lizzo’s statement suggests a possible misunderstanding or error during the casting process.
While the specifics are unclear, Lizzo’s video highlights her support for Lopez and dispels any rumors of a feud between the two musicians.
The video’s cheerful tone also indicates a willingness to address the matter without inciting undue conflict.
The Marry Me actor’s new film enlisted stars such as Jane Fonda, Keke Palmer, Trevor Noah, Kim Petras, Post Malone, Sofia Vergara, Jenifer Lewis, Jay Shetty, Neil DeGrasse Tyson, and Sadhguru to play the hilarious zodiac council, an astrologically inspired group that meets to dissect Lopez’s love life from above.
Fat Joe plays a psychiatrist in the film, while Derek Hough, one of the singer’s husbands, stands out with his remarkable dance talents.
Lopez launched The Greatest Love Story Never Told on Tuesday, which details the creation of her musical film as well as her path to self-love.
