‘The Bear’ Star Ayo Edebiri Trashed Jennifer Lopez in 2020, Now Both on ‘SNL’

Effectively, that is awkward … Ayo Edebiri eviscerated Jennifer Lopez‘s abilities 4 years in the past — properly earlier than she was tremendous well-known — and now … the two of them are doing ‘SNL’ collectively.

The ‘Bear’ star is that this weekend’s host, and Jenny is the musical visitor — so that you gotta think about her resurfaced feedback may make it somewhat bit awkward throughout rehearsals forward of the massive present tomorrow evening.

Ayo was featured on a podcast in 2020 with a lady named Laci Mosley who hosts “Scam Goddess” — which is devoted to uncovering “scams” within the public eye and gossiping about them. On this explicit episode, she had Ayo (who, once more, was not a big-time TV star but).

Proper from the get-go, they begin to talk about one “scam” they understand … and that will be the “career” of J Lo — their phrases, not ours. Ayo then trashes Jen in very harsh phrases.

You possibly can hearken to her remarks for your self — however primarily … Ayo and Laci are yukking it concerning the notion Jennifer simply is not that nice of a singer, not less than of their eyes — they usually consider she’s fooled the plenty into pondering she’s this implausible vocalist.

Ayo herself even leans into this long-standing (and unfounded) rumor that J Lo has allegedly used ghost singers in her profession … one thing AE runs with as truth, and simply additional proof (from her POV) that Jen has fleeced the business. Like we mentioned, that is tough.

There are extra imply feedback that Ayo and Laci make, which we cannot embrace right here.

Anyway, the larger level is … Ayo and Jen are actually in the identical constructing proper now, and they’re going to most definitely see one another over the following 24 hours, so it will for positive come up.

The query, in fact, is … will they have the ability to play good and get by the present?

Sources with direct data inform TMZ … this incident with Ayo was way back, and that she is most definitely a fan of Jenny proper now — we’re informed she’s excited to work along with her and be in her presence. As for Jen … our sources inform us she does not often let these types of issues trouble her — and that her mantra is about transferring on and transferring ahead.

We’re informed J Lo is wanting ahead to working with Ayo this weekend.
