Is Marc Anthony, 44, dating that 21 yo British heiress to bring her into Scientology?


Page Six has a story today about Marc Anthony’s new romance, with 21 year-old TopShop heiress Chloe Green. Yesterday we talked about Chloe and Marc’s Disneyland outing with his kids. Chloe and Marc were looking cuddly and she was carrying his daughter around at one point. It was gross to me because Chloe is young enough to be his daughter and because it doesn’t seem too wise to have her around his kids when they’ve only been dating a month – tops. So Page Six’s theory about this new May-December romance is interesting, but I’m not really buying it and I’ll explain why in a moment. They say that Marc is into Scientology, in secret-like, and that he’s bringing Chloe into the fold. Say what? That’s news to me. Here’s more:

Marc Anthony’s relationship with Chloe Green, the 21-year-old heiress to the fortune of UK’s Topshop, has celebrity and social circles whispering about what’s really behind the sudden May-December romance.

Some fear that 44-year-old Anthony’s ties to the Church of Scientology could be an influence on Green, the aspiring actress and designer who starred in British reality show “Made in Chelsea.” The pair were seen strolling with their arms around each other at Disneyland this week, and also touring the park with Anthony’s and ex-wife Jennifer Lopez’s twins.

But Green — whom sources say Anthony has “known for years,” since she was a teen — is a stark departure from his stunning exes, Lopez and Shannon de Lima, the Venezuelan beauty queen he just split with.

Anthony and Lopez reportedly had close ties to Scientology, which is known for targeting celebs and scions of wealthy families, making Green a perfect potential object of interest for the church. While Anthony’s reps deny he’s a member of the faith, he and Lopez rubbed elbows with Scientologists including Tom Cruise and reportedly broke up over the religion.

Green, who arrived in LA two weeks ago for the launch of a Topshop there, posted a cryptic tweet after her date with Anthony on Tuesday. Quoting a friend, she tweeted, “ ‘LA thank you . . . I’ve found myself,’ ” followed by “So have I!”

[From The NY Post]

Kaiser pointed out to me that Rupert Murdoch owns the NY Post, and that he’s very vocal in his hatred of the cult of Scientology, so it’s possible the Post has some insider information that we don’t. It’s also possible that they’re jumping to conclusions based on some cryptic tweets which sound more to me like two goofballs thinking their new romance transcends age, famewhoring and excessive consumption.

We have heard that Marc and J.Lo were into Scientology, but it was J.Lo pushing the cult’s faux self-help crap, not Marc. Lopez’s dad is a Scientologist, and she’s good friends with Lean Remini (also a Scientologist). She’s spoken very positively about it in the past, but claimed that she wasn’t personally a Scientologist. She’s just down with them or something. It just doesn’t seem to be Marc’s thing, and if it was Lopez probably would have converted.

So I don’t really believe this story that Marc is into Scientology and that he’s introducing it to this Chloe character. He’s just psyched to be banging some young chick again, and is taking every opportunity to throw it in his ex’s face. (Just like she’s been doing, basically.)

Marc Anthony, 44, takes new 21 year-old girlfriend to Disneyland: gross?


Make fun of Jennifer Lopez all you want for taking up with a 25 year-old backup dancer (and she deserves it). At least the guy was in his mid 20s and somewhat established when she met him, even if she was, and continues to be, his employer. In comparison Lopez’s ex, Marc Anthony, 44, is now dating a 21 year-old British heiress, Chloe Green. He hasn’t been with her for long, considering that he announced his last breakup, from 24 year-old model Shannon de Lima, just a month ago. Green is the daughter of TopShop founder Sir Philip Green, she has a shoe line and she stars on the reality show Made in Chelsea. (So at least she works, however much nepotism was involved.) She was spotted out with Marc at Disneyland with his two kids earlier this week. (The photos are here.) Marc was seen with his arm around her, so it’s on.

Jennifer Lopez will now be forced to watch Chloe Green play mum to her children as her ex-husband Marc Anthony is dating the Topshop heiress.

Marc and Chloe, the daughter of Topshop boss Sir Philip Green, were snapped playing happy families with his and JLo’s twins Max and Emme at Disneyland in California on Tuesday.

Their relationship is thought to still be in the early stages but already having a family day out suggests it’s moving at rapid speed.

The Disneyland date comes just one month after the Latin singer, 44, split from his model girlfriend of one year, Shannon De Lima.

But it’s clear she’s now long forgotten as Marc looked more than cosy with Chloe, 21, as they walked hand-in-hand through the park, often stopping for hugs and kisses.

The pair, who have a 23-year age gap, looked relaxed in each other’s company and seemed to be enjoying themselves on their first public outing since they began dating.

And Chloe seemed quite the natural at the step-mother routine.

She was seen laughing and joking with Marc’s five-year-old twins as she carried them around the park, gave them lots of cuddles and sat next to them on rides.

Although they’re not an obvious pairing, Marc and Chloe’s romance probably won’t come as too much of a surprise to Chloe’s dad as the singer is an old family friend.

Back in April 2009, Marc and JLo were seen chatting away to Chloe and Sir Phillip during a Topshop dinner in New York.

[From Metro.co.uk]

So Marc knew Chloe from at least 2009, when she would have been 17 years old, and now he thinks it’s totally appropriate to date her. Lovely. On this same Disneyland outing, Chloe was seen carrying Marc’s five year-old daughter, Emme. So they’ve been dating a whole month and she’s already caring for his kids. It’s not like this is unprecedented in this family, Jennifer staged a similar family vacation photo op with Casper Smart and her kids less than a month after we first heard about him. These people are so mature, it’s no wonder their romantic partners keep getting younger.

Here’s Chloe on 2-14 at the Topshop opening in LA with her dad, Sir Phillip Green, and Kate Bosworth. She looks older than 21 but does that matter?! The image above of her was taken earlier this month too. Credit: WENN.com

Jennifer Lopez busted sneaking out of newly-single Marc Anthony’s hotel


Last week we heard the news that Marc Anthony had split with his girlfriend of just over a year, model Shannon de Lima. Let’s do a quick timeline for context. Marc and J.Lo broke up around July of 2011. After that, they’re said to have hooked up in November, 2011 in romantic Puerto Rico. (Love it there!) Then Lopez got with opportunistic baby doucheface, which angered Anthony. Anthony was still in love with Lopez and allegedly wanted to reconcile, but she was all hung up on her kept man, Casper, and rejected him. So Anthony got this younger piece too, but it didn’t last.

Given Lopez and Anthony’s history, I’m raising my eyebrows at this report that they were both seen sneaking out of the same hotel – right after his breakup. I’m thinking there was more going on than just talking. Actually I hope that’s the case. Here’s more:

Latino power couple Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony have been divorced since July 2011. But it looks like the pair are still close as JLo was seen visiting his hotel last week.

The singers sparked rumours of a romance being secretly reignited when the pop stars were spotted sneaking out of the Mark hotel separately.

Marc has recently split from his model girlfriend Shannon de Lima. After a year of dating a rep recently told People magazine, “The truth is they have been having a great time together, but it no longer worked.

However, despite the gossip, a source for New York Daily News is adamant there has been no rekindling of old flames. Jennifer was at the hotel, “to wish him luck on the road.”

The pair also share four-year-old twins, Max and Emme and Lopez was apparently bringing them to see their father before he jets off on tour. Despite the age difference, JLo is still going strong with boyfriend, Casper Smart.

Although she did speak to People magazine last week about the insecurities she feels, dating a man 18 years her junior.

“I ask him, ‘Why don’t you go find a young girlfriend and get out of here? What do you want with me?’”

[From Entertainment Wise]

It may have had to do with their kids visiting their dad, and Lopez is still friendly with him so she came along too. Still, I would kind of love it if Lopez and Anthony got back together. She always needs a man in her life, and it seems like Anthony was good for her. He was certainly more on her level that this dude she’s paying to accompany her everywhere, who seems shady and has gotten way too big for his britches.

Update: I just realized that this happened last week but we haven’t talked about it yet. So that makes the timing even more suspect, considering Anthony had just announced his split with de Lima. Also, the original report in the NY Post claims that Lopez was alone and that they spent two and a half hours together.

Jennifer Lopez does Vegas with her boy-toy Casper & her ex, Marc Anthony

Lots of new photos of Jennifer Lopez over the weekend! She performed in Las Vegas at the Mandalay, and she also had a launch party for her latest single, “Goin’ In” at the Bellagio. She brought Casper to the single launch, and shockingly, Casper did not wear some kind of eyeglasses to detract from his face. Usually, that boy doesn’t go anywhere without glasses. Meanwhile, Jennifer wore this tight little minidress that I don’t hate. I like the design a lot, actually. My only problem is that it’s WAY too mini. How was Jennifer not flashing her biscuits all over Vegas in this dress?

As for Jennifer’s Saturday concert – her ex-husband showed up. On stage!

Who says exes can’t stay friends? Though they’ve split, Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony stood hand in hand as the crowd cheered for their ¡Q’Viva! The Chosen show in Las Vegas Saturday. The cheers were even louder as they embraced on stage to finish off their live show.

The duo has, for the most part, shown solidarity during ¡Q’Viva!, which began as a reality series in which the pair traveled the Latin world alongside executive producer and co-host Jamie King, searching for talent. The resulting live variety show seemed to delight the roaring crowd of 8,400 Saturday.

The loudest cheers, of course, came for Lopez and Anthony, who performed separately on stage.

Lopez’s evening, however, didn’t end there as she headed to Hyde Nightclub following the show. Joined by boyfriend Casper Smart, Lopez danced on an elevated catwalk in a VIP area as the deejay played her songs.

The couple kept their affections at bay, dancing near each other, but not necessarily together, in front of clubgoers. As Smart danced seductively, Lopez could be seen watching her man, as well as waving to fans who were excited to see her.

Dressed in an off-white form fitting dress, Lopez finally left the club around 3 a.m. after dancing the night away.

[From People Magazine]

For my money, the Jennifer-Marc thing is like the gender-reversed Demi Moore-Ashton Kutcher thing. While I think Demi would be all over a reconciliation and Ashton is all “Ah, NO,” on the other side I think Marc would be all over reconciling with J.Lo and Jennifer is the one pulling back. So… does it seem kind of like Jennifer is leading Marc on? Or do they just get along, and they’re fine supporting each other’s careers and all of that stuff? I don’t know. I tend to think Marc is trying to figure out a way to get Casper Smart out of the picture.

As for Jennifer’s concert costumes… well, let’s just be thankful that she’s done with those awful pleather catsuits.

US Weekly: Jennifer Lopez’s marriage to Casper Smart is imminent

Jennifer Lopez and Casper Smart
Yes we’ve heard this rumor many times before, including the detail that Lopez is ready to have Casper’s babies. The difference is that this is now in US Weekly, the celebrity mouthpiece. Jennifer previously had a “source” tell People last month that she “thinks she is very lucky to have met Casper. He is everything that Marc wasn’t: kind, supportive, appreciative…There is a lot of love between [them]. He treats her like a queen.” At that time, Jennifer’s people denied that she and Casper were engaged. This was in response to a tweet by none other than Roberto Cavalli claiming that Lopez had called him and asked her “to create a special dress. For her next wedding.” So it sounds like it’s on, and US agrees and has more details. Lopez is just waiting for her divorce from Anthony to be final, because she can’t wait to marry Smart and get knocked up again at 42. Her clock is ticking.

Lopez, 42, “is telling friends she wants to marry Casper,” a confidant tells US. And she can barely wait until October, the earliest her divorce from Marc Anthony, 43, could be official. The mom of twins Max and Emma, 4, wants another baby – pronto – says the insider. “Frankly, she doesn’t have all the time in the world,” says the source. But it’s not just about a baby. Says the pal, “she’s certain she wants to be with Casper forever.”

The singer already knows what it’s like to wake up to Smart every day. The 5-foot-8 dancer has practically moved into her L.A. home and even sits in on her business meetings. “He provides what she hasn’t had in years,” says the Lopez source. “He’s very supportive and devoted.” His attention to her kids only adds to his appeal. “She wants to have a traditional family,” says the Lopez source. “She loves how playful he is with them.”

Indeed, Smart – who brashly asked for her digits while dancing in her “Papi” video last August – has “made her feel young,” says the Lopez source. Even better, unlike Anthony, he lets her call the shots. “He exists only for her,” says the confidant. “Marc controlled her, and now she’s in control.”

[From US Weekly, print edition, May 7, 2012]

The stuff at the end about how supportive and devoted Casper is sounds just like what she told People last month, so I don’t doubt this is coming from her camp.

We know how quickly it ended the last time Lopez married a backup dancer, and the last time she married a waiter. She stays with the powerful, successful types like Diddy, Affleck and Anthony. Why doesn’t she just look at her own dating history? She’s so dickmatized by this doofy kid she’s paying him over half a million a year just to hang out with her! It’s going to cost her a lot more than that when they inevitably split.

Marc Anthony wanted to reconcile with J.Lo, but she loves Casper and rejected him


Some of you e-mailed this to us as a tip, and it’s somewhat interesting. It seems like a common occurrence in the celebrity divorces we’ve seen lately. The husband wants to reconcile for whatever reason, and the wife is like “it’s over, I’m good.” We’ve seen this with Heidi Klum and Seal, with Sandra Bullock and Jesse James and Sean Penn and Robin Wright. (There are plenty of mutual reconciliations, cases where only the wife wants to reconcile, and mutual divorces too of course.)

Last week Marc Anthony filed for divorce from Jennifer Lopez. We didn’t cover it, because it seemed somewhat inevitable given the fact that while they’ve been separated J.Lo has moved on to a new much-younger boyfriend who has been traveling with her, living on her dime (if 10k/week is a “dime”), and appearing in her ridiculous music videos. Anthony apparently didn’t think it was inevitable, and he allegedly tried to get back with Lopez before she said “It’s over, I’m good.” I thought that Anthony had a new piece too, some hot model type. Anthony even got a tattoo for his new girlfriend. He was still hanging all over Lopez during their joint press appearances for Q’Viva earlier this year, so I guess he wasn’t over her and wasn’t ready to move on.

Marc Anthony held out hope for a reconciliation with Jennifer Lopez, but decided to file for divorce when she told him … she’s madly in love with BF Casper Smart … TMZ has learned.

TMZ broke the story … Marc filed for divorce Monday — nine months after the couple announced they were splitting.

But sources extremely close to Marc tell us, he didn’t make the decision on his own — he had a heart-to-heart with J.Lo a few weeks back to see if she really, truly wanted to end the marriage.

We’re told he said he wanted to give the marriage another try, but Jennifer confessed … she was deeply in love with Casper … and wanted to pursue that relationship.

We’re told Marc was blindsided … he had not idea things were so serious — and he was hurt.

So that’s why Marc filed divorce papers this week.

[From TMZ]

I hope this means that Casper no-so-Smart is just a distraction for J.Lo so that she can distance herself from her marriage, since she needs to be in a relationship at all times. She’s made every indication that she’s serious about this kid, though. Even her manager has said that Lopez is stupid in love, basically. If she didn’t have another “man” lined up, would she have gotten back with Anthony, since she’s incapable of being alone? She might have. I could see it.

Jennifer Lopez covers V mag in boxer garb: ridiculous or semi-fitting?

Jennifer Lopez covers the April issue of V magazine for their “sports” issue all dressed up as a boxer. She’s photographed by Mario Testino, and the editorial spread honestly gives me the vibe of a 1990s Cindy Crawford shoot. I find it strange that the best that V could do for their sports issue is JLo, but the message seems to be that Lopez is a fighter and survivor. I guess it’s somewhat inspiring that “Jenny from the Block” can suffer repeated career setbacks (Gigli, The Back-up Plan) and still come back with a $20 million dollar annual paycheck for her work on “American Idol.” Presumably, we should also be impressed that JLo has also “survived” multiple marriages and came back with a 24-year-old facially-challenged boy-toy as well. To each their own.

At any rate, the interview covers a discussion of Jennifer’s career to date and status as an “unrepentant sparkle addict.” It also discusses her new Univision show with Marc Anthony called “Q’Viva: The Chosen,” which situates the formerly married couple as international talent hunters. The photoshoot really bugs though for a few reasons: (1) It’s ridiculous; (2) So much underboob. That’s one of my major pet peeves and the only reason why I sort of shuddered at Kate Upton’s Sports Illustrated cover. When my boobs start to escape like that, all I want to do is yank down my bra. Is underboob truly sexy or just gross?

“Q’Viva” is educational & entertaining: “There are so many differences in the Latin community. Someone from Mexico and someone from Puerto Rico have different foods, different traditions. There’s an education to be had. Even as I was going through the different countries, there were certain forms of music that I didn’t know about.”

On working with Marc Anthony: “I mean, we’re parents and friends first,” she says with a smidgen of exasperation. “That will be the thread that ties us together. I don’t know if people expect it to be negative (Of course they do, Jennifer!) just because the [intimate] relation- ship didn’t work out.” The professional relationship, however, is chugging lucratively along.

On her film failures: “You’re not going to hit the target or the bull’s-eye every time. That’s part of it. At the end of the day, I made those choices. I’ve been in the business now, I don’t want to say how many years. You have amazing moments of recognition and success. But at this point in my life, I try to take it all with a grain of salt.”

On her personality: “I’ve always felt like a tough girl from the Bronx. But I have a soft core. I can take a lot of punches and still keep going. I’ve been trained like a boxer to go 15 rounds.”

On the importance of being Latina: “It really defines you and makes you who you are. I tried to keep that close to my heart– what I learned growing up. It’s something that I love so much. When doing ‘Q’Viva,’ it was kind of reinforcing that, showing how important it is to me and staying connected to that and showing my kids what that’s all about. People realize the strength of the community because of the dollars and the numbers. They’ve always been trying to find a way to crack that because they see opportunity. They don’t know how to get in. But people were willing to listen and at the end of the day, as long as it transcends language to feeling, it doesn’t matter the ethnicity.”

On rebranding: “One of the greatest by-products of this particular time is this new introduction of Jennifer Lopez to a community that’s always known her but had misconceptions about her,” her manager, Benny Medina, told USA Today.

[From V Magazine]

I can appreciate that JLo’s drive pushes her to continue earning millions instead of fleeing into obscurity, but she’s wholly omnipresent these days. That was part of the reason that Gigli failed. Not only was it a very bad movie, but no one wanted to pay to watch Bennifer when they were already splashed on every tabloid cover. In fact, I think JLo’s new megasuccess an omen of things to come for her — this new phase won’t last forever either. Maybe she already knows that though.

J.Lo wants her kids to value “growing up lower middle class”: hypocrite or clueless?


There was an inset story on the cover of this week’s OK! about how J.Lo and Marc Anthony might get back together after their very cozy joint appearance promoting their new reality show. OK! claimed that a source told them Jen is “not nearly as crazy about [Casper] as she was a couple of months ago, he’s half her age and she worries he’s using her for her fame. Add it all up and she’s starting to really open up to the idea of taking Marc back.”

So cue the staged photos of Lopez looking loved-up with her douchetastic younger lover, Casper not-so Smart. Kaiser covered those over the weekend and she very aptly summed up the collective response to this relationship: “Why? The dude isn’t even hot.” (I’m paraphrasing.)

We’ve heard other rumors that Lopez is ready to marry Casper, that she wants his babies, and that she’s setting him up with a hefty allowance and a paid (vague) position on Idol. Well in an appearance on The Today Show this morning, (video is below) Lopez got flustered when Matt Lauer asked her about potentially marrying again, saying it was “too fresh,” but she didn’t rule it out. I’m going to include People’s coverage of this, because it’s safe to assume this is straight from Lopez’s camp:

“I don’t know. I don’t know. I don’t know. We’ll see. I mean, I don’t know,” a slightly flustered Lopez, 42, told Matt Lauer on Monday’s Today show when he asked, “Do you think you’ll marry again?”

“It’s not time to think about that yet,” she said. “It’s still fresh.”

On the topic of appearing with her ex-husband (since last July) Marc Anthony on their new TV show, ¡Q’Viva! The Chosen, Lopez admitted that, given their personal circumstances, it would have been easy to walk away from the show commitment.

But, she explained, “Marc and I were friends before we got married. We were friends for years, and we always loved each other. And we always worked together, so it wasn’t an unnatural thing for us to continue working together. And, obviously, we have children together, so it’s not going to be like he’s not in my life. He’s always going to be in my life.”

She also conceded that there are uncomfortable moments between them, but said, “There is real love there.”

South Beach Fun with Casper Smart
On the relationship front, Lopez was seen getting wild with boyfriend Casper Smart on South Beach this weekend.

After a marathon two-day photo shoot on Ocean Drive in South Beach for an upcoming Vogue magazine feature, Lopez and Smart, 24, joined Latin crooner Enrique Iglesias and a group of other colleagues for dinner at Casa Tua late Saturday night.

“After a festive dinner, she jumped up on the table and performed an impromptu dance in front of Casper, who sat there wide eyed and happy,” a source told PEOPLE. “She was having a blast and looked radiant.”

The source added: “The last time I saw Jennifer at Casa Tua, she was with Marc, and neither performer looked happy. This was like a positive renewal for Jen.”

[From People]

So Marc was a downer for her so she’s bringing her boy toy around and visiting their old haunts in order to wipe the slate clean.

I did get the impression that she still loves Marc and was even a little embarrassed talking about him, like you get when you’re talking about a new lover. So is she keeping the door open for a reconciliation? Is this whole split and “taking younger lovers” thing a publicity stunt for their new reality show? Many of you say you think it is. I don’t think so, but I’m naive like that.

Toward the end of that interview, Lopez laughingly tried to claim that she was trying to give her kids the same kind of upbringing she had except “in a bigger house.” I got a huge kick out of this and I just need to quote her on it:

Lauer: They’re privileged. Does that worry you at all?
Lopez: I think about it. I loved my upbringing. I’ve tried to give them the same thing, just in a bigger house. The same family, they grew up around their cousins and their aunts, just like I did. The same foods, they eat the same foods I did when I was growing up. You know, I try to just keep what was so good about growing up Puerto Rican in the Bronx, lower middle class family. The same things, the same values that were important to my mom and my dad and what I’ve learned from that upbringing I’ve tried to bring to them.

Do you remember that ridiculous baby photo spread she did in People Magazine with the $3,000 stroller? She posed in couture gowns while holding her twins and showed off an elaborate nautical themed nursery with chandeliers. (Marc and J.Lo later sued the stroller company for $30 million for using them in ad campaigns.) Do you remember how her kids fronted a baby Gucci campaign?! I get what Lopez is saying in theory, but how does that translate in practice actually? Does she deny them anything? Does she teach them that they have more than almost anyone else in the world? What are they learning from going on vacation with mommy’s much younger boyfriend? I would buy these lines coming from Jennifer Garner, but Jennifer Lopez, not so much.

Marc Anthony covers up his J.Lo tattoo and gets a tattoo for his 24 year-old girlfriend


For all you can say about how Jennifer Lopez jumps from one serious relationship to the next, her estranged husband isn’t taking his time in his currently relationship. Right after we saw a flurry of photos of J.Lo out with her new boyfriend, 24 year-old backup dancer Casper Smart, Marc was posting messages on Twitter and Facebook to make sure we knew about his new 24 year-old girlfriend, a Brazilian model named Shannon De Lima. Well now there’s news that Marc got someink for De Lima to seal the deal. He calls her his Statue of Liberty, so he had a Statue of Liberty inked inside his right wrist, which is where he previously had a tattoo for J.Lo. So smart.

Some say it in love letters, others in poetry.

Marc Anthony, however, opts to say it in ink of a different kind – etched permanently onto his skin.

The singer, 43, currently sports a new tattoo he got in honor of his new flame, Venezuelan model Shannon De Lima, on New Year’s Eve in Miami, according to TMZ.

The tattoo, of the Statue of Liberty inked onto the inside of his right wrist, is a direct reference to the 24-year-old beauty, whom he calls his “Statue of Liberty” – a nickname he gave her for “freeing” him of his past relationships, sources told the site.

Anthony very publicly split with wife Jennifer Lopez this past summer after seven years of marriage. The couple have two children together, twins Max and Emme.

The singer’s children from previous relationships, however, thus far approve of dad’s new relationship.

“To all my followers and everybody on twitter follow 2012 best couple and for many more years to come @MarcAnthony and @Shadelima !!!!” his son Chase Muniz wrote earlier this month.

Anthony and his 17-year-old daughter Ariana even decided to get unspecified matching tattoos on New Year’s Eve, replacing the “Jennifer” tattoo that used to cover his right wrist.

Lopez and Anthony will continue to work together on talent competition “Q’Viva! The Chosen” despite their split, and the couple opened up about their new relationship dynamic in a recent screening of the premiere episode, with Lopez calling it “very Sonny and Cher after divorce.”

Added Anthony: “Marriage is one chapter, kids are another.”

[From The NY Daily News]

I can’t really tell from the way this story is worded on TMZ or The Daily News if Marc covered up his J.Lo tattoo with the Statue of Liberty tattoo. It sounds like he got another tattoo to cover up the J.Lo one and then added this Statue of Liberty tat in that same area. When is it ever a good idea to get a tattoo for a lover? I understand getting tattoos for your kids, parents or blood relations, but even for a spouse it seems misguided. Marc has been with this model a few weeks tops unless he was cheating with her and she was his jumpoff. Even if that’s the case, it’s supremely dumb to get a tattoo for her. At least he’s getting a symbol instead of her name, but he’s going to have to look at that thing every day for the rest of his life barring another tattoo covering it up or laser surgery. I could see maybe getting a tattoo for a girlfriend or boyfriend in a discreet spot that you don’t have to see all the time, but when it’s on your wrist it’s going to remind you of them constantly even after the breakup.

Marc and J.Lo really were perfect for each other. They’re both so stupid when they’re in love. Or maybe Marc still loves J.Lo and is trying to make her jealous. Given their dynamic recently that could be the case.

Marc and J.Lo compare themselves to Sonny & Cher, does he want her back?


Over the weekend, photos came out of Marc Anthony and Jennifer Lopez attending a press conference together for their new South American talent search reality show, “Q’Viva”. (You can see some of the photos here) Plans were in the works for the show well before Marc and Jennifer separated, and we’ve heard that there have been problems with production given their issues with each other. They were the picture of togetherness during the press conference – sort of. It looked more like Marc was trying to his exert some kind control over Lopez than trying to get along amicably with his ex. It was uncomfortable although she seemed to roll with it. (You can see a brief segment of an interview they did with ET at about 10:15 into the full episode on ETOnline.) I’ve heard before that Marc was controlling, and is rumored to have been abusive, but this really brought it home for me. He put his arm around her waist during the photocall, led her by the hand, and repeatedly touched her. During the ET interview he brushed something off her skirt.

Lopez smiled throughout everything and said “We’re like Sonny and Cher.” She knows what she has to do for business but I get the sense that she’s happy with her new young piece, and she’s also happier with the new dynamic in her latest relationship. She’s in control of baby doucheface, monetarily and probably otherwise, and she doesn’t have some husband telling her what to wear and how to do her job.

Maybe that was Marc’s way of showing J.Lo that he still loves her, and wants her back. I know a few dudes who have cheated on their wives but are devastated at the thought of losing them. I think Marc and Jennifer had serious problems, that he had some sort of affair with Jada Pinkett Smith, emotional or otherwise, and that Jennifer pulled the plug. He’s obviously insanely jealous of her new boyfriend, and he even got himself a little model to show off. He still loves Jennifer, though, and I bet he would take her back. I think she’s well rid of him.
