• Glee star Heather Morris previously claimed Jennifer Lopez refused to hire Virgos as dancers.
  • Andy Cohen grilled the “Love Don’t Cost a Thing” singer on it during Watch What Happens Live.
  • Lopez admits she may have said, “If anybody’s a Virgo here, get out!”

Jennifer Lopez is setting the record straight about her astrological preferences.

During her Wednesday visit to Watch What Happens Live, host Andy Cohen asked the Kiss of the Spider Woman star to address her alleged star sign prejudice, referencing a 2022 rumor from Glee alum Heather Morris, who claimed that Lopez once refused to hire singers who were Virgos.

“You know, I’ve thought about this,” Lopez began, already laughing. “I do like to joke around. I think I had just… I had maybe just had an issue with a Virgo, and I was like, ‘If anybody’s a Virgo here, get out!'”

By this point, both Cohen and his studio audience were cracking up at the story. Lopez herself was holding back a smile when she added, “But I didn’t mean it. They could walk away and say that, of course, but I’m sure they knew I was joking.”

The “Love Don’t Cost a Thing” singer then amended, “Or maybe they felt like I wasn’t — but I was, absolutely. It was a joke.”

Morris, who began her career as a professional dancer long before rising to fame as Brittany S. Pierce on Glee, shared the “funny story” a few years ago on Justin Martindale’s Just Sayin’ podcast.

“Jennifer Lopez held an audition for dancers for one of her tours,” Morris shared. “She walks in the room and she said, ‘Thank you so much, you guys have worked so hard. By a show of hands if there are any Virgos in the room, can you just raise your hand?'”

Morris continued, “She looked at them and she said, ‘Thank you so much for coming.’ And they had to leave after a full day of auditioning for Jennifer Lopez.”

Breaking down her own audition room experience, she added, “Most of the time a dance audition, you’re not getting paid, you’ve been there since 10 a.m. and you’re auditioning until 6 p.m.”

When asked if the story was true, Morris clarified that she was not one of the dancers in the room, but had heard more than one account of the incident. “This is hearsay but true,” she said. “When one person says something, could be true [but] when multiple people say something… it’s like, ‘Oh, that happened.'”

If Lopez is to be believed, Virgos can once again get to work preparing their “On the Floor” routines. As for Morris, being an Aquarius means she would’ve been safe on that fateful day — but as the person who popularized the Virgo story, she may not be in Lopez’ good graces.
