“Jenny from the Block” has morphed from a Fly Girl on the set to producer of her new reality show Moves on MTV.
Great news: another reality show has been born. Jennifer Lopez will host an eight-episode reality dance series entitled “Moves” on MTV this fall. As executive producer with Simon Fields, a partner in her production company Nuyorican, Lopez has an integral part of the show—even choosing final dancers and special VIP dance guests from the industry.
“Moves,” scheduled to premiere in the fourth quarter, will follow six dancers over eight weeks as they tell their stories of struggle, reaching for the starts, showcasing talent, paying rent and dancing for 30,000 fans.
Lopez, the former “Fly Girl” from “In Living Color,” has attained a level of success that is rarely attainable by dancers. The worldwide phenomenon is known for not only her dance floor moves but her talent on screen in film and in music.
“I started out as a dancer, and I know what that world is. These dancers have dedicated their lives to this, and honestly, the glory is not always there. It's something they do only out of love. It's a tough life, and I want to show that struggle,” says Lopez.
