One of the year’s biggest collaborations is starting to make more progress after being largely shut down thanks to the Coronavirus pandemic. Of course, we’re talking about the upcoming highly-anticipated Jennifer Lopez film, Marry Me, which also stars Maluma in his acting debut.

Although we still have a while to wait before the movie makes its big screen debut (not until 2021), we’re finally getting our first look at what the duo will look like on screen along with other exciting details about the project.

Marry Me finally has an official trailer and JLo and Maluma fans couldn’t be more excited.

It seems like we’ve been hyped up for this film forever – and thanks to Coronavirus, we kinda have. But finally, Universal has released the teaser for Marry Me, and it reveals a few new details about the film and its cast. Along with J.Lo, the film stars Owen Wilson, Sarah Silverman, and Colombian singer Maluma in his major feature debut.

The film was originally announced last summer and production began in October 2019 but much of it was shut down once the Coronavirus struck. The film is directed by Kat Coiro (It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Dead to Me) and features original music by Lopez and Maluma, which sounds too perfect to be legal, sorry.

To celebrate the cinematic milestone, López and Maluma have reported that they are recording a full-length soundtrack of original songs. Maluma Baby is hyped from the time he’s spent in the studio with J.Lo (who wouldn’t be?), telling a reporter last year, “It’s been such an amazing experience also working, doing music. I mean we never stop.”

So here’s everything we know about the film so far.

Based on the graphic novel by Bobby Crosby, the film is described as a “modern love story about celebrity, marriage and social media.” López plays musical sensation Kat Valdez, who agrees to live-stream her marriage with her fellow superstar Bastian (Maluma — fictional or not, this is officially the hottest couple on Planet Earth and we can’t unsee it) in order to boost the sales of their new single and duet, “Marry Me.”

When she finds out that Bastian has been cheating on her, however, she freaks out and decides to marry a stranger in the audience watching: divorced high-school math teacher Charlie Gilbert (Owen Wilson), who was dragged to the event by his daughter. The unexpected sequence of events leads the two down a path toward unexpected true love.

Even with a new movie coming out, both JLo and Maluma have been hard at work in the studio.

Just last month, Maluma surprise released his latest album – PAPI JUANCHO. It’s Maluma’s fifth studio album and was produced alongside longtime collaborators Rude Boyz. Although the album features Maluma’s alter ego as the main star, it also includes several guest appearances from a number of reggaetón royals, including Justin Quiles, Lenny Tavarez, Myke Towers, and Jory Boy. PAPI JUANCHO was made during quarantine between the singer’s hometown of Medellín and Miami, his U.S. base.

Meanwhile, JLo has teased new music in recent weeks. Jennifer Lopez posted a picture with producer Ryan Tedder over the weekend in which she promised that new music is “just around the corner.”

The snap, in which Lopez is sporting dark red lips and a messy up hairdo alongside the OneRepublic leader and veteran songwriter/producer — rocking a black Mad Tasty hat — doesn’t offer much more detail about what the duo are cooking up, but Lopez seems pretty psyched.

“Can u feeeeeel it… new music just around the corner!!” Lopez wrote.

It would be a welcome return for Lopez, who has only released a remix of “If You Had My Love” so far this year, as fans wait for her to announce a release date for her as-yet-untitled ninth studio album. Lopez’s last full-length was 2014’s A.K.A., which featured the singles “I Luh Ya Papi,” “First Love” and “Booty.”

You’d think with a completely unwholesome hit like “WAP” nothing could shock Cardi B.

The rapper, who broke records over the summer with her big “WAP” collaboration with Megan Thee Stallion, has had quite a bit to revel in since the release of her song. The rap single made history in August when it became the first female rap collaboration to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. At the same time, it also became the most-streamed track of 2020 within just a week of it being streamed. Still, “WAP” continues to give.

So, again, nothing should be shocking Cardi but then… someone did a “WAP”/ Taylor Swift mashup.

British-South African model/Instagram star Niamh Adkins recently performed a comedic mashup of “WAP” and a Tay Swift Hit.

For her mashup, Adkins sported the OG Squeaky Clean Taylor Swift Country Girl Lewk to recreate the beginning of Tay’s hit music video “You Belong With Me”. Things get really good halfway through when the track jumps to “WAP” and Adkins drops to the floor to some moves from Cardi B’s music video.

“I ain’t saw that coming,” Cardi, who tweeted in response to the music video, which surprisingly combines the purity of a young Tay Swift and the WAP mood perfectly.

Note, the original mashup was created by user @heyimjoshlol. The user posted the unlikely melding together of the two tunes captioning his TikTok post with the caption “so uh i did a thing.”

Check out the fun mashup video below.

It’s not the first time we’ve seen fans ask for a Cardi and Tay Swift mash-up. In 2017, Cardi gushed over after the “Cardigan” singer sent flowers to her to celebrate the rapper for dethroning her spot on the No. 1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 with “Bodak Yellow.”

“Thank you @taylorswift for the flowers … and I freaking love your music,” Cardi captioned a video of her flowers from Swift.
