Jennifer Lopez a ‘sex addict’ in ‘This Is Me … Now’ trailer
Jennifer Lopez’s new single is called “Can’t Get Enough” — and the trailer for her upcoming short film, “This Is Me … Now: A Love Story,” teases that that title may apply to her sexual appetite.
“We think you might be a sex addict,” says one of her friends gathered for what appears to be a J.Lo intervention.
“What?!” responds the shocked superstar, who can previously be seen in a therapy session with her “Feelin’ So Good” collaborator Fat Joe.
The two-minute trailer, which dropped on Wednesday, is for the Amazon Prime original that will premiere on Feb. 16, the same day that Lopez releases her ninth studio album, “This Is Me … Now.”
But, really, it’s more love than sex that the 54-year-old pop diva craves in the sweepingly cinematic trailer for the short film, which was directed by Dave Meyers. He also helmed her wedding-themed “Can’t Get Enough” video — released last week — as well as early ’00s clips such as “I’m Real” and “All I Have.”
“I know what they say about me, about hopeless romantics … that we’re weak,” Lopez says in a dramatically rendered voice-over that opens the trailer. “But I’m not weak.”
Then, ever so ominously, the three-time divorcee adds, “I’ve learned the hard way: Not all love stories have a happy ending.”
Later, after sharing in what appears to be a support group, Lopez confesses, “Whenever someone asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, my answer was always: in love.”
The trailer also features snippets from the “Can’t Get Enough” video, in which Lopez not-so-coincidentally gets hitched to three different grooms, including “Dancing With the Stars” judge Derek Hough.
And the end of the trailer reveals that there are many more stars who will be featured in “This Is Me … Now: A Love Story,” including Sofia Vergara, Trevor Noah, Post Malone and Lopez’s “Hustlers” co-star Keke Palmer.
Not to mention the singer’s hubby, Ben Affleck, who inspired her 2002 album “This Is Me … Then” when they were first engaged.
“I have not been this nervous, excited, scared and thrilled to share something with you in years!!” Lopez wrote on Instagram about her short film.
“The story of my journey from This Is Me … Then to This Is Me … Now is the most personal thing I’ve ever done.”
