A-Rod gushes over J.Lo’s Puerto Rico charity concert

Alex Rodriguez admitted he’s floored by Jennifer Lopez’s charitable efforts following Hurricane Maria’s devastation in Puerto Rico.

The singer, actress and “World of Dance” judge already donated $1 million of her own cash to relief efforts, and now she’s organizing “One Voice: Somos Live! A Concert For Disaster Relief,” with proceeds going to recovery efforts in Puerto Rico.

“To watch Jennifer kind of lean into this in a way I didn’t know she was capable of — I mean, here’s someone who has like 20 jobs, I can’t even keep up,” Rodriguez, 42, told “Entertainment Tonight” Thursday.

The concert, airing Saturday on Telemundo and Univision at 8 p.m. ET and on NBC at 10 p.m. ET, will feature performers including Demi Lovato, Gwen Stefani, Maroon 5, Ricky Martin, Camila Cabello and Lopez’s ex-husband, Marc Anthony.

Proceeds from the event will go to UNICEF, United Way, Feeding America, Save the Children, Habitat for Humanity and Unidos for Puerto Rico.

“I called every performer myself,” Lopez, 48, boasted. “It was a lot of fun to call you know, Gwen Stefani or Demi Lovato or Jamie Foxx or Leonardo DiCaprio or any of these people … Ellen DeGeneres and go ‘Hey, my full time job is now Puerto Rico, can you help me out?’ And I can’t even get the sentence out and they’re like, ‘Yes, what do you need? What do you want me to do?'”

Still, Lopez was quick to share credit with Rodriguez for the show’s successful launch.

“We complement each other in a beautiful way, and I couldn’t have asked for a better partner in this,” she said. “I mean the things that Alex did to help make this a success for the people of Puerto Rico and for all of disaster relief has been amazing. Alex was like, ‘We can do this,’ and he got the MLB and the New York Yankees to donate right away. And then he made a donation. And then that all happened almost simultaneously.”

The cause hits very close to home for Lopez, who lost touch with family members on the island after the storm hit, and A-Rod is determined to raise awareness of the work that still must be done.

“We sometimes take things for granted,” Rodriguez said. “Just being in a room with air conditioning or refrigerated food or light and water, gas. Things that they don’t have and it’s getting worse by the minute. I think for us, it’s important to send the message to them with our words and our actions that we’re there and we’re there to stay and we’re not gonna abandon them.”
