Fat Joe was reportedly left "mad" after Jennifer Lopez arrived five hours late for a video shoot.
The 45-year-old singer has collaborated with the New York rapper on track Stressin', which follows their teaming up for 2005 hit Hold You Down.
New York Daily News' Confidenti@l reports Jennifer and Fat Joe began their production at the Griffin nightclub in the Big Apple's Meatpacking District, then moved locations to the Don Coqui Puerto Rican restaurant in the Bronx for the second half of filming.
However, the popstar is said to have arrived so late to the first site that filming at the second spot began an hour before it was scheduled to wrap up.
“[Jennifer] was supposed to show up at the shoot at the Griffin at 9am, but she didn’t actually arrive until 2pm. They were supposed to be at the Bronx location by 5pm, and they didn’t make it up there until 9pm," a source revealed.
“By the time they were at the Bronx location, Fat Joe was pretty mad. I don’t know if he was specifically mad about Jennifer, but the time crunch made everything more stressful."
It wasn't just Fat Joe who was said to have been irked by the rushed pace. Those working with the pair were also reportedly left exhausted after having to prep ahead, only for Jennifer to turn up late.
“The crew were saying they were tired because they’d got up so early to start at the Griffin, and then they didn’t get finished until about 1.30am. Everything was supposed to be finished by 10 pm," the insider added.
On top of that, the publication claims this is Fat Joe's “most expensive video ever”. There is said to have been a large cast of extras busting moves as Jennifer danced on top of a banquette.
