Jennifer Lopez has been making headlines this week not just for that incredible Versace dress moment during Milan fashion week. Her latest film, Hustlers, has been banned in Malaysia due to “excessive obscene content”.

The film, which also stars Constance Wu, Julia Stiles, Lizzo and Cardi B, follows a group of strippers who set out to fleece their wealthy Wall Street clients by changing their credit card details while they’re under the influence of alcohol and drugs.
