Together, Jennifer Lopez and her teen Emme are unlimited.
Indeed, the Hustlers actress turned the Nov. 9 Los Angeles premiere of Wicked into a family affair as her 16-year-old joined her to support Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo and the rest of the theatrical adaptation’s cast.
J.Lo walked the red carpet solo, but the teen—whom she shares, along with twin brother Max, with ex Marc Anthony—made the perfect plus one, as seen in the Maid in Manhattan star’s Nov. 11 Instagram Story, where she wrote, “Wicked! We loooved it.”
Rather than channeling Elphaba or Glinda for the rare outing, J.Lo opted to channel her inner Jenny from the Block, sporting a brown and cream Zuhair Murad gown with cutouts at the hips and beadwork all over. And while Emme didn’t walk the red carpet, they channeled the Good Witch, opting for a silk pink floral top with black pants and a bracelet.
The duo were not the only stars to step out for the Nov. 9 premiere. In addition to the film’s cast—including Cynthia and Ariana as well as Jonathan Bailey, Ethan Slater, Jeff Goldblum and Michelle Yeoh—Wicked’s original Broadway actresses Idina Menzel and Kristin Chenoweth showed their support to the on-screen adaptation.
And the film’s stars, Cynthia and Ariana, shared how much it meant to have the original Elphaba and Glinda show their support to not only the film, but to them as they took over the roles.
“We had an amazing day yesterday with the women who created this, the architects, Kristin and Idina,” Cynthia gushed to E! News on the red carpet of the film premiere. “That was one of the most incredible highlights of our year, to be honest, to be able to share some space with them.”
The “yes, and?” singer, for her part, echoed the sentimentality of sharing the roles with the Tony winners.
“It's a very supportive witch coven, I have to say,” Ariana added. “Every single one of our sister witches has been very, very, very supportive. We just feel so honored to be a part of this legacy and to be the ones in the movie. It's such a sweet thing to share with them.”
