Jennifer Lopez has revealed she headed to a strip club in New York with her fiancé Alex Rodriguez to research for her role in Hustlers.

She plays Ramona, a single mum from the Bronx, who is a stripper – alongside Cardi B.

And to figure out what actually went on in the New York clubs, she got her sportsman partner on board to go along and get up close and personal with the scene.

He was very excited, she said of Alexs reaction when JLo got the role, before he added: What do you need to know?

Jennifer continued: When he was a player, thats what the guys did. He was in the club. All these sports guys. We did some research.

Can you imagine working in the club when JLo and Alex just roll up, take a seat and start watching you? No pressure.

We went to a strip club together. I said “I have to go”, she said this week.

We went here in New York, we talked to some of the girls, got some info. I watched, soaking up the atmosphere. Watching how to do things real, authentically.

Earlier this week she revealed her frankly offensive six-pack in a BTS shot from Hustlers.

Posing in a purple bikini, the mother-of-two was rocking a rig we can only dream of – but it evidently came with a lot of hard work as she detailed her restrictive diet for the role.

I constantly feel like Im training for something, all the time, whether its a movie or a video or tour, she said on Beats 1 radio with Ebro Arden on Wednesday night.

When I took on Hustlers I immediately said I need to change my body in a way Ive never done because its going to display in way it never has been.

I didnt want people to think I didnt belong on that stage in a G-string.

Um JLo, are you hearing yourself right now?

Im gonna be dancing up there and doing the real things, so the training became very important and the diet, to change your body, is important.

She said her diet was more about what *not* to eat and the power of restriction.

We already know wed fail this on the first day, but Jenny admitted she has made it through without cheating.

Adding partner Alex was doing the programme with her in solidarity, she said: So the programme were on right now lets say…we do no sugar, no carbs at all… for five days.

Shes so strict on the no sugar rule she wont even eat a tomato, because it has sugar in it.

We started it at 10 days, then five days, then on the weekends [we cheat] a little bit. Well have a waffle.
