Award-winning actress, producer, singer, and entertainer Jennifer Lopez will join Latin GRAMMY winner Maluma for an intimate conversation where they will speak together for the first time about their their new music, their upcoming film, "Marry Me," and the brand new music they've created for the soundtrack, as well as how Latinos are changing the landscape in both Hollywood and the music industry.

She has been named to the TIME 100 list, Forbes' "Most Powerful Celebrity", and People Magazine's first "Most Beautiful Woman in the World", in addition to receiving the MTV Video Vanguard Award and two Golden Globe nominations for her critically acclaimed roles in the box office hits "Hustlers" and "Selena." To this day, Lopez remains the only female artist to ever have a #1 album and #1 movie at the box office at the same time. She can be seen next starring in the upcoming feature film "Marry Me", alongside Owen Wilson and Maluma. The film will be packed with new original songs from both Lopez and Maluma.

He notched the No. 1 spot with his hit "Hawái," from his new album Papi Juancho. "Hawái" has also been No. 1 on the Hot Latin Songs chart for the last two weeks.
