That means cranking out a handful videos to go with it. On breaks from the Angel Eyes shoot and promotional duties on The Cell, Lopez will be in and out of recording studios putting finishing touches on her second album, which is slated for an October release. Of course, there will be more dresses and more awards shows for Lopez. “I cant believe I’m not gonna be there,” he says. “It’s a halter with a low back and little sparkles in the fabric.”Ĭombs looks disappointed.
“I’ve got a salmon pink Vera Wang dress picked out,” she says.

While he heads off to New York for a series of meetings, she’ll make an appearance at the Amerian Latino Media Awards in L.A. Which means that it’s Lopez’s last night with Combs for a while.
A dark psychological thriller, The Cell, is in theaters this month a romantic comedy called The Wedding Planner is set for Valentine’s Day 2001, and Angel Eyes, a romance-drama, will be along shortly thereafter.

Of course, teenagers make up a huge sector of the movie going market as well, and it just so happens that Lopez has three new films set to open in the next year. “Do you have any idea what percentage of the record-buying public is kids?” Medina asks one of the film agents. In the grand scheme, a Nickelodeon special would seem to be a petty small-time gig, but Lopez isn’t doing it just for fun. She’s not about to relax until they have the act nailed. It was hard work and resolve that made her a star, and despite a double-platinum album, critical praise for her performances in Selena and Out of Sight, and a fee that reportedly goes as high as $9 million a film, Lopez’s determination is as steely as it ever was. After nearly six hours of rehearsal, the dancers are only just now getting their “pyro cues” (the production will include explosions), but Lopez doesn’t seem to mind. It’s after 10, and on this nippy evening in April it feels even later out in the bleachers, where members of Lopez’s entourage-including manager Benny Medina (the man who helped make stars out of Will Smith, Babyface and Puffy), ICM film agents Risa Shapiro, and Robert Newman, publicist Alan Nierob and a handful of close friends-are stifling yawns and struggling to keep warm. Fifteen thousand kids will cheer them during the show’s actual taping the following night millions will be tuning in excitedly two nights later. When the camera rolls, she’ll jump up and down on the mattress until a maternal offstage voice tells her to “Pipe down!” Then she’ll crawl out a prop window and erupt onto the sprawling stage at the Hollywood Bowl in a powered-up toy car-after which she and her back-up troupe will run through the song. The bedroom scenario was her idea, an intro she’s tacked onto a performance of “Feelin’ So Good”-the last single to be released from her hit 1999 album, On the 6. And whatever fantasies the bed might conjure in her adult fans, it’s actually just a prop for the Nickelodeon Kids Awards, for which Lopez is arduously rehearsing an elaborate production number. Instead, Lopez is swathed in sweats, her hair tied in a ponytail. The three-toned mane, the glossy caramel lips, the Versace-clad bombshell bod and the stiletto heels are all taking a break for the evening. Nor is there any trace of the kittenish siren we’ve come to know from movies, videos, and countless tabloid stories. There is, however, no magnum of Veuve Clicquot chilling on the nightstand, no fireplace crackling nearby, no silk pj’s lying in a heap-only buzzing spotlights and hours-old coffee in Styrofoam cups. Jennifer Lopez, tawny and voluptuous, luxuriates on an oversized bed as Puff Daddy looks on.
