Lopez — who’s had abusy yearthat included aGolden Globe nominationfor her acting work inHustlers— opened up last month about herexcitementfor the live NFL gig, sharing how she sees it as an opportunity to bring her style to a new audience.
“I am excited,” she toldRobert Pattinsonas part ofVariety‘s “Actors on Actors” series. “I think there’s not a musical artist in the world that doesn’t dream of performing at the Super Bowl.”
Lopez said being asked to perform at the major event, which will be held at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida, is more than just a milestone in her career, but also a step forward for representing the Latinx culture in mainstream entertainment.
“I think it’s important in this day and age,” she said, “for two Latin women to be standing on that stage — when Latinos are being treated a certain way in this country, or looked at a certain way — to show that we have a really specific and beautiful culture and worth and value, and we bring something to this country that’s necessary.”
