Lily-Rose Depp’s love affair withAbel “The Weeknd” Tesfayereaches new heights in a newThe Idoltrailer.
In the latest preview for HBO’s risqué new music drama, premiering Sunday, Depp’s leading character Jocelyn is aware that people are “gauging whether or not” she’s still “got it.” And that debate is very much up for discussion as she’s filming what appears to be a new music video, during which someone notes that the featured strippers are “kind of out femme-ing” Jocelyn “with the flips and the dips.”

From there, Tedros blindfolds Jocelyn and proceeds to seductively touch her from behind. “Now sing,” he says.
And while Jocelyn declares she “fell in love” with Tedros, those around her feel he’s “brainwashed” her.
“You’re not a human being,” Tedros later tells Jocelyn as she nervously chuckles. “You’re a star.”
At the trailer’s end, Da’Vine Joy Randolph’s character Destiny says of Tedros: “Never trust a dude with a rattail.”
The new trailer also sees Depp’s Jocelyn engage in various seductive dancing sequences while dressed in skimpy outfits. It also teases further glimpses into Jocelyn’s twisted love story with The Weeknd’s Tedros.
Before the controversy, Depp revealed inELLE’s December 2022/January 2023 issuethat she’s “not interested in making anything puritanical.”
“I’m not interested in making anything that doesn’t challenge me, or challenge other people, honestly,” she continued. “I think this show is fearless, and that’s something that I’ve been really excited and proud to dive into. I can’t wait for you guys to see it.”
