Leah Remini begs pal Jennifer Lopez to 'be ugly once' in funny TikTok

Jennifer Lopez and Leah Remini may be BFFs but they occasionally share some friendly jibes with each on TikTok.

One of them came when Scientology and the Aftermath host Leah, 51, jokingly shared why she thinks Lopez, 52, is "such a jerk."

In the hilarious resurfaced video, Leah, wears a baseball cap and looks low-key as she says, “So Jen asked me to meet her by the pool, right? Okay, here’s me… normal. Look at this one. Head wrap. Jewellery. Can you be ugly once? Just be normal once. You're such a jerk-off."

Meanwhile, J.Lo shared this moment on Instagram all the way back in 2014 with her take, writing "Attacked at my own damn pool by @leahremini! #summerfun #besties #canubenormal #noIcant #gottakeepitsexy #familia."

But despite the occasional TikTok bants, the King of Queens alum and J.Lo have been firm friends since 2004, when they met at the premiere of Man on Fire.

"I was friends with Marc Anthony and then he started dating Jennifer, and he was doing a film," Leah told Entertainment Tonight.

"I went to premiere and he said, 'You have to meet Jennifer!' And he was telling Jennifer, 'You have to meet Leah and Angelo,' my husband. So, we went to the premiere hoping she was gonna be ugly in real life. And then, when I was approaching her, I was like, 'I hope it's the lighting.

"'Maybe she just looks good in here,' and as I got closer I was like, 'Oh damn, there's a lot of light right here and she looks really pretty. I even said that! I said, 'Goddamnit, why the fuck why are you so f***ing pretty'?''

But the hit-maker had nothing but praise for Leah saying their chemistry was 'instant'.

She added: "She's cool and we also have very similar upbringings. That's why we work well together."

In the comments section, fans gushed over how much they “love” the ladies’ friendship and how relatable they are.

''We all have that friend! I look like Walmart and she look like Neiman’s while picking up coffee! Love it! Having fun & gossiping is the best!,” one person commented.

Another wrote" “Awww the bffs We need to see more of! I’d watch their show.”
