Jennifer Lopez and the historically named Marc Anthony are still set to film their globe-trotting talent show together, despite announcing the end of their marriage last week and the inevitable feelings of murderous rage that come as part and parcel of any such split.
Last month it was announced that the former couple hatched a plan in their volcano lair and were to jet off on a massive global tour?this summer in order to find the best Latin wannabe stars for their new TV talent show titled, oddly enough, ‘Q’viva! The Chosen’.
The original idea of the programme is thought to have been altered slightly to reflect the change in Lopez and Anthony’s marital situation.
Very little is known about the exact format that the show, which is being produced by Xix Entertainment,?was originally supposed to have . However, fictional sources close to the company have informed hecklerspray that the couple were supposed be seeking out the very best young talents in the world of Latin music?before whisking the lucky contestants off on a series of nefarious trials in which their very sanity would be pushed to the limit for the amusement of J’Lopatra and her Roman consort.
After Lopez and Anthony sent shockwaves of apathy through Hollywood on Friday by ending their seven year ‘association’, the production company is apparently looking for a new format to play on the split and the headlines that it has inevitably drummed up.
The revised ideas are thought to include ‘singing battles’ in which the divorce case is played out through a series of musical numbers, sung by the contestants, in front of a judge and the charming ‘babysitter’ idea in which the contestants sing platitudes to the former couple in the form of insipid ballads.
We know what you’re thinking; surely it would be more sensible for them to put the show on ice until they can spend time in the same room without armed guards having to intervene. Unfortunately, the road to millions of dollars is littered with the corpses of people who couldn’t be professional and as such their production company has spoken out in order to squash rumours that the project has been thrown into jeopardy.
A representative from Xix told Deadline.com, “They?re both committed to ‘Q?viva!’ and will work on it as planned. The show goes on!” This is despite the fact that they have to be separated at all times by an electric fence.
Here’s hoping the show descends into an on-stage battle where J’Lo and her backing dancers take on Mark Anthony and a legion of well-trained Roman soldiers. Well… we can always dream.
