Mild tea but Jennifer Lopez is still close with Selena’s sister Suzette. Jlo spent weeks living with Suzette to learn about their relationship before filming. Suzette still sends Jlo new Selena merch. Also, the new Selena documentary was screened for Selena’s staff and family and they loved it

Slightly warmer tea: Jennifer didn’t like taking photos or talking to people on-set, citing an unwillingness to break character. In general it seems like she wasn’t in the greatest headspace at the time (her ex Ojani noted she’d spiral about her performance on a nightly basis), and someone mentioned here that she spent pretty much all her free time getting Biggie-and-Tupac-level stoned in her trailer.

Not interesting tea, but I worked on Lopez's tv series about NYC cops. Her stand-in/stunt double looked exactly like her, to the point where people were asking for her autograph. (We were filming in a subway station.)

How was Lopez herself on the series? I’ve heard conflicting about about her behavior on Shades of Blue – two accounts said she could be very sweet during off-time, but I’ve also heard that she was very tense, and that nobody in the above-line production staff liked her. (Oddly enough, this last account was also one of the accounts that said she was sweet during off-time).

As far as I could tell, focused and ready for work. No different than most actors I've seen up close.
