Jennifer Lopez has revealed her favorite person to smooch on the big screen.
The actress and singer appeared on Watch What Happens Livewith Andy Cohen on Wednesday, where the host asked her to name her favorite person she has ever had to kiss for a movie.
“We have George Clooney, Matthew McConaughey, Ralph Fiennes, Richard Gere, Owen Wilson, JoshLucas, it goes on and on,” Cohen said. “Plus movies which are in the can waiting to come out!”
Lopez’s answer happened to be a much more recent smooch.
“I’m gonna say my favorite — I just did a movie with Brett Goldstein and I’d say he was the best kisser,” Lopez said.
Lopez stars alongside Goldstein in the upcoming romantic comedy Office Romance.
The Netflix film was written by Goldstein and Joe Kelly and helmed by Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again director Ol Parker.
Goldstein spoke to Netflix back in April about working on the project.
“Every day I come to work to do a rom-com with Jennifer Lopez and this incredible cast, and I expect people to jump out and tell me I’m being pranked,” Goldstein said. “Hasn’t happened yet, so maybe this is real?”
Betty Gilpin co-stars in the film that also features Edward James Olmos, who portrayed Lopez’s father in the 1997 film Selena. He plays the actress’s onscreen father again in Office Romance.

Love Jones‘ iconic duo Nia Long and Larenz Tate will work together again on an untitled romantic drama that has been greenlit by Netflix.
Though the logline hasn’t been disclosed, inspiration for the film came from Maxwell‘s debut album, Maxwell’s Urban Hang Suite. Kay Oyegun penned the script; Eugene Ashe is signed on to direct.
The untitled drama will mark another collaboration for Long and Tate, who teamed on the ’90s cult classic Love Jones. Their next movie, Antoine Fuqua’s Michael, will arrive on April 24, 2026.
Long celebrated the news on Instagram, writing, “The timing is divine and working with @larenztate is my favorite thing to do. We’re doing this one for YOU!!!! Thank you for all the love from the bottom of my heart and soul. Let’s go.”
In his own post, Tate wrote, “REUNITED and it feels so good!!!! SUPER EXCITED to star along side the amazingly talented & phenomenal Nia Long! @iamnialong Devine timing indeed!”
“Maxwell my brotha you already know … it’s on!!! Netflix! We are making Sumthin’ special for YOU world!” he continued.
(KENOSHA COUNTY, Wis.) — A Wisconsin man pleaded not guilty on Thursday after he was arrested for allegedly threatening federal agents in a series of TikTok videos, according to a criminal complaint obtained by ABC News.
Andrew Stanton, 38, was arrested earlier this month and charged with threats to assault, kidnap or murder a United States official after authorities linked him to several TikTok videos threatening agents at Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection, prosecutors said.
“When there are mass shootings, they are successful. People die and people are terrorized. You can apply that to other people: federal agents,” Stanton allegedly shared in a video on Sept. 10, prosecutors said.
On Aug. 26, the Southwest Wisconsin Threat Analysis Center received a tip from the Wisconsin Statewide Intelligence Center that an “individual appearing to be” Stanton was making threatening statements on TikTok specifically aimed at “soliciting Israeli personal information,” prosecutors said.
“Do you have the known whereabouts of [Israel flag] IDF members in the IL/WI area? Feel free to dm me. We need verification that they are IN or served,” the text in the video said, according to the criminal complaint.
The account where these statements were posted was removed, but prosecutors said additional accounts that were believed to be Stanton’s — after obtaining the email address associated with the accounts and comparing the suspect’s driver’s license photo with the man in the videos — contained similar rhetoric, prosecutors said.
On Aug. 29, one of those accounts posted a video that stated, “We’re not getting through to them [politicians] with using our words. That’s never gonna happen. You have to use bullets,” according to prosecutors.
Another video featured text on the screen that read, “I imply the very TRUE statement that a violent state can only be stopped with violence in return” and “I think we should be OFFING federal agents,” prosecutors said.
On Sept. 5, authorities made multiple attempts to interview Stanton, but were “unable to reach him,” prosecutors said.
Then, on Sept. 11, a federal law enforcement officer texted Stanton saying he was a supervisor with CBP, assigned to the FBI, indicating “he wished to speak to Stanton about posts he had been making,” the criminal complaint said.
Stanton then proceeded to send a series of threatening messages to the officer, prosecutors said.
“Please die. It will help future generations,” Stanton allegedly wrote.
Then, on Oct. 4, the suspect posted a video threatening the officer he had been messaging, prosecutors said.
“If they show up to your neighborhood, and I’m talking to you, Border Patrol Officer Joe, it’s time we start shooting you,” Stanton allegedly said in the video, according to the criminal complaint.
In the same video, Stanton also allegedly said, “If ICE shows up to your neighborhood — I’m sorry, I’m just gonna say it. It’s time to start [expletive] shooting at them,” according to the complaint.
Stanton’s final pretrial conference is scheduled for Dec. 1, with his trial being set for Dec. 15, according to court records. He is currently being held in the Kenosha County Detention Center, according to jail records.
An attorney representing Stanton did not immediately respond to ABC News’ request for comment.

For the Trujillos, music continues to be a family affair.
Chloe Trujillo, wife of Metallica bassist Robert Trujillo, has released a new single called “As the Sky Is Falling Down.”
“The song is about spiritual transformation through chaos,” Chloe says. “It discusses the fall of material illusions and reveals a deeper truth. There’s a saying, ‘True liberation is not in escaping chaos, but in no longer being disturbed by it.’ I wasn’t allowing the craziness of the world to affect me. Instead, I was creating a lot of art and music.”
A video for “As the Sky Is Falling Down” will premiere Thursday at 7 p.m. ET. The track is also set to appear on an upcoming EP called Rebirth, due out in early 2026.
Along with Robert and Chloe, the couple’s son, Tye Trujillo, is a musician and plays in the band OTTTO.

The Cure has shared an update on the progress of their next album, the follow-up to 2024’s Songs of a Lost World.
In the newly updated “Bio” section of their website, the “Just Like Heaven” outfit reveals, “In March 2025 the band went back into Rockfield Studios to record 13 more songs for a follow up album.”
Frontman Robert Smith spoke about the status of new material in a December interview with the U.K.’s Absolute Radio, during which he said that a “companion piece” to Songs of a Lost World was “pretty much ready to go.” He also said there was another “completely different” Cure record in the works.
Whenever a new Cure album arrives, it appears we won’t have to wait as long this time around. Prior to Songs of a Lost World, Smith and company hadn’t released a new record since 2008.

Jon M. Chu has revealed that a celebrated actor will voice the Cowardly Lion in Wicked: For Good.
The director described how he selected the mystery actor to voice the iconic character in an interview with Deadline shared on Thursday. Chu says he sent the star a direct message on Instagram asking him to be part of the Wicked sequel.
“I was like, ‘It’s not a ton of lines, but maybe you have a little time. I know you’re busy. I’ll come to you.’ He was like, ‘Why the f*** not, let’s go!’ And then we went ahead and recorded the lines.”
Chu is excited for the rest of the world to find out who is voicing the character.
“Man, wait until the red carpet when the actor who gave us the Cowardly Lion’s voice steps foot on it. It’ll be wild,” Chu said.
The Cowardly Lion was a main character in the classic 1939 film The Wizard of Oz. He was portrayed by BertLahr. The character was teased in the most recent trailer for Wicked: For Good, which was released on Sept. 24.
