JENNIFER Lopez loved teaming up with Tom Cruise at Sunday’s MTV Movie Awards. At the ceremony, Cruise, 47, took to the stage as his Tropic Thunder alter-ego Les Grossman, a potbellied film producer.
“Working with Tom was amazing!” Lopez told US TV show Extra.“I’m such a hard worker, and I’m kind of intense about my job. It’s great to work with someone who is just as intense and passionate and crazy about getting everything right.”
A month before the show, Cruise called Lopez, 40, personally to convince her to join him on stage. “I said OK, we’d do a little mash-up of,” Lopez recalls. “I come out and sing a little and then we dance together.
But [I told him] you have to learn this cane dance that I do in the video.” “That is one of the hardest routines. But he did it,” she adds. “He really, really did it. And he did a great job! I was really proud of him.”
It was confirmed earlier this week that a movie centering on Grossman is in the works.
