The Jennifers have arrived! Jennifer Lopez and Jennifer Coolidge showed up and showed out on the Shotgun Wedding red carpet for the new movie’s L.A. premiere on Wednesday evening.
The rom-com queen and leading lady, Lopez shined bright in a sheer, embellished Valentino gown with a mock neckline, long sleeves and a cascading train. The Fall/Winter 2022 Couture creation featured a neutral bodysuit beneath, with a canary yellow ribbon tied into a bow around her waist. Styled by Rob Zangardi and Mariel Haenn, the “Jenny from the Block” singer paired it with Valentino Garavani Tan-Go patent leather platform pumps, while carrying a bright yellow Tyler Ellis “Perry” clutch.
Lopez amped up the glamour with diamond Art Deco chandelier earrings, a matching cuff bracelet and a dazzling assortment of rings. With her caramel strands slicked back into a tight bun, Lopez adorned a glowing complexion, courtesy of JLO Beauty.
Coolidge chose a classic body-con LBD for the red carpet affair (a look she’s been favoring throughout awards season). With sheer long sleeves, the ruched V-neck dress featured black lace under the bust and dark black panel down the middle of the frock. With her blonde hair blown out into glossy waves, The White Lotus actress complimented her look with timeless black pumps and statement earrings.
In typical Coolidge fashion, the star was caught hysterically laughing with photographers, throwing her hands up in the air and shooting finger guns. (Classic.)
Lopez shared a video on Instagram of herself and Coolidge chatting at the afterparty before they realized they were live. “This woman was fantastic,” Lopez said of Coolidge before panning the camera to her husband Ben Affleck. “I’m here with my hubby! We’re having a good time,” she said while wearing a different Valentino mini dress with silver sequins and ivory ruffles. “I love you guys,” she said to her fans, “Thank you for always being there for me. I recommend, you should see this in the movies with an audience. That’s how you should see a comedy, where everybody’s laughing, having such a good time.”
She captioned the post, “HAPPY JENNUARY! Live at the @shotgunweddingmovie after party 🎉 🤍 @primevideo @jennifercoolidge.”
The Prime Video film, directed by Pitch Perfect’s Jason Moore, follows the engaged couple Darcy (Lopez) and Tom (Josh Duhamel) as they prepare for their impending destination wedding. The trailer opens with Tom tweaking the seating chart and completing their DIY twinkle light-wrapped pineapple center pieces. Darcy is dealing with her kooky future mother-in-law (Coolidge) and getting her dream wedding dress ready.
Things go awry when Darcy’s ex (Lenny Kravitz) makes a not-so-subtle surprise appearance by way of helicopter during the rehearsal dinner, then things really go haywire when guests are taken hostage by armed “pirates.” Tom and Darcy attempt to escape their wedding party’s captures, and as one might assume, hysterical action-packed and fun-filled chaos ensues, and Coolidge’s one-liners steal the show.
Shotgun Wedding lands on Prime Video on Jan. 27.
