Nov. 12 (UPI) -- The 2020 American Music Awards will feature a performance from Jennifer Lopez and Maluma.
The AMAs said Thursday that Lopez, 51, and Maluma, 26, will perform together during the awards show Nov. 22.
Lopez and Maluma will give a world premiere performance of their songs "Pa' Ti" and "Lonely."
Maluma, a Columbian singer, celebrated the news on Twitter.
"So excited to perform with @JLo for a special world premiere performance of 'Pa' Ti' and 'Lonely,'" he wrote.
The AMAs said the performance reflects the popularity of Latin music in 2020.
