Jennifer Lopez reveals her love for rom-coms during a chat with Maluma about their upcoming movie “Marry Me” in a new interview with Billboard.

The pair also discuss representing their Latin identities, with Lopez admitting Latin representation in film “is not common.” She tells the publication, “I’ve been doing movies for 25 years now, and I’ve done 40-something movies.

There have been three to four movies in my entire career where I’ve had Latino co-stars.” Lopez adds of the rom-com genre: “First of all, romantic comedies are not light movies.

They’re necessary, beautiful movies, and I don’t know why people feel like they have to put them down when everybody enjoys them so much… It’s a very sweet movie, but it’s still a movie about life.”
