Forget the red carpet; this week, Jennifer Lopez hit a different kind of stage: a social media feed, armed with a piano, powerhouse vocals, and a crucial message. Less than two weeks before the pivotal November 5th election, J.Lo teamed up with actress Jenifer Lewis and vocal coach Stevie Mackey for a surprise, impromptu performance – a vibrant PSA urging everyone to get out and vote.
The video, which quickly went viral, shows the trio seated around a piano, singing “Get your a– out and vote. I don’t care who you are or where you work… This ain’t the election to sit home and lurk.”
This isn’t Lopez’s first foray into political activism. She previously lent her support to Democratic candidate Kamala Harris, appearing virtually at a September rally hosted by Oprah Winfrey. Her involvement underscores the growing trend of celebrities using their platforms to encourage civic engagement. This election cycle has seen a wave of high-profile endorsements, with Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, Megan Thee Stallion, and Ariana Grande, among countless others, publicly backing Harris.
Adding another layer of intrigue to this already compelling narrative is the recent involvement of Marc Anthony, Lopez’s ex-husband and father of her children, Emme and Max. In a powerful political commercial, Anthony not only voiced his support for Harris but also delivered a scathing critique of Republican opponent Donald Trump.
