J.Lo and Wilmer Valderrama to Executive Produce New Shows for MTV Tr3s
According to Perez Hilton, the Latino MTV Tr3s network will be welcoming some star power to their new shows.
Jennifer Lopez is set to executive produce Amigas, Inc. to be premiered later in the year. The show is an "aspirational eight-episode television series," which "chronicles the lives of four entrepreneurial Miami teenagers who launch a party-planning business to throw their perfect Quinceneras (comparable to a 'Sweet Sixteen')."
"I’m so excited to bring the Amigas series to television and to share the rich cultural experiences of being a Latino that are universal to us all.” Lopez said. “I hope that this series will entertain audiences and inspire my fans to pursue their own dreams."
Wilmer Valderrama will also be executive producing an eight episode docu-series called The Ricardo Laguna Project, which spotlights "the Mexican-American BMX champion Ricardo Laguna that he discovered." The show premieres this March.
"When I met Ricardo, I immediately discovered a disarming, charming and inspiring young man with a vision larger than even his whole family expected,” Valerrama said. “I related to him on so many levels. Ricardo and his family remind me and all of us the reason why we move away from our countries and come to America to embark in the search of the American dream."
