Rockin' The Fashion: JLo's Skinny Jeans & Heels

Sassy Smith — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 15:05:00 GMT

Jennifer Lopez had some retail therapy on Tuesday, hitting up Roche-Bobois furniture store in West Hollywood. JLo was rockin' her skinny jeans and majorly high heels - when I say high heels, I mean high.

Jennifer had fun ordering high-end items, including stuff for her twins, Max and Emme. I bet those babies aren't spoiled!

JLo: I Had A Nervous Breakdown

Sassy Smith — Wed, 08 Oct 2008 19:04:00 GMT

When we think of celebrities, we often think that their lives are perfect (or close to it), but that's certainly not always the case. Jennifer Lopez opens up for the first time, about suffering a nervous breakdown seven years ago. "I was like - I don't want to move. I don't want to talk. I don't want to do anything. I had a nervous breakdown."

Jennifer spoke with The Daily Beast:

The 39-year-old actress and singer was filming the movie Enough, and it was just before she married her second husband, Cris Judd, when she "froze," and didn't want to do anything.

"There were no signs leading up to it. You really don't know what's happening at first. I was going, what's going on? It's funny what tricks your mind plays on you. I just didn't want people to think I was falling apart

"I don't get nervous. I don't get depressed. Blah, blah, blah…There was a time when I was very overworked and I was doing music and movies and so many things. I was suffering from a lack of sleep. And I did have a kind of nervous breakdown. I froze up on a set. Well, not on a set, but in my trailer. I was like, ‘I don’t want to move. I don’t want to talk. I don’t want to do anything.’ It was on that movie Enough [in 2002]. Yeah. I did. I had a nervous breakdown."

Lopez blames stress and overwork for her mental exhaustion. She refused medication and chose to rest until she felt better. She'd never been to a shrink, said she's, "not a shrinky person."

However, the new mom of twins didn't experience PPD after their birth, although people had "prepped" her for it.

"People kept prepping me for it, but it didn't happen. At the tenth day after giving birth all that chemical stuff did peak - that hormone thing - and I did cry a lot that day because I was having so much trouble moving (after her caesarean section)."

JLo also talks about Scientology - her father David has been involved in the religion for over 20 years. She previously denied being a member of the religion but said she was "bothered by people's negative attitude towards it.

"I just wish that people wouldn't judge it without knowing what it is." She said she wouldn't be opposed to her children attending a Scientology school.

What about her "diva" image?

Lopez says, "Once you have a lot of success you become a target in many ways. I just think the whole diva thing is a misreprestation of who I am. I worked really hard. I kept my focus on the right things. And still even with that they find stuff to pick on."

Jennifer Lopez Sending Twins to Scientology School?

Karl Erikson — Wed, 08 Oct 2008 14:37:00 GMT

At the Elle Magazine 15th Annual "Women in Hollywood" Tribute, 39-year-old Jennifer Lopez talked about schooling her 7-month-old twins, Max and Emme. Specifically, she was asked whether she'd sent her twins to a Scientology school.

Jen's response? "Yeah, I wouldn't mind, not at all. Because I know that the technologies that they have are very helpful. It's all about communication. That's the thing I really don't like about talking about this. I do know so many great people who do it, who choose it as a lifestyle and really follow it and it is their religion. I just wish that people wouldn't judge it without knowing what it is."

Um, maybe because Scientology is a freakazoid cult that brainwashes people? How about that? Geez, Jen, wise up and join a commune. At least they have good weed.

Would any of you send your kids to a Scientology school? Tom Cruise, leave your hand down, please.

JLo's Weird Fashion Choice (She's Wearing Knickers?)

Sassy Smith — Tue, 23 Sep 2008 19:07:00 GMT

What is Jennifer Lopez wearing? Are those body-shaping underpants/knicker things? If so, aren't they meant to be worn under your clothes, not as actual clothes? JLo is usually dressed to the nines but her gold shirt with the shaping half-pants and the hooker boots just aren't doing it for me.

Another pic after the jump!

The pop singer was performing in Athens with an audience of 11,000 fans. I'm sure they were there to hear her sing not to see what she was wearing. But still....odd choice of an outfit. Maybe as a new mom of twins, she doesn't have as much time to choose just the right outfit? Ya, that's it!

Gasp! JLo Does Have A Nanny!

Sassy Smith — Sun, 21 Sep 2008 11:10:00 GMT

Jennifer Lopez decided a few months ago that she wanted to be a full-time mom and not have a nanny anymore, which hey, that's how most mother's do it - sans nannies. I'm not dissin' anyone with help, but JLo gave off a vibe that she wanted the world to be impressed that she could parent her own children. We assumed she could, albeit a bit diva-ish. However, she's apparently gone back to having a nanny but who can blame her? She's got twins - two babies is a lot of work! Perhaps Jennifer is just like us after all....well sort of....

Jennifer dished to PEOPLE...

Jenny from the block says of having help:

"I did it for a long time but we started using a nanny a few weeks ago, [Most days] I get up early with them. Then when the nanny comes, I can take a shower and give them their breakfast. She’s there to help me get things done."

Jen's favorite moments in the morning and evening:

“When they see you and have that big smile on their face – I live for that. And when I put them to bed at night and they melt in your arms. I give them a bottle and wind it down. I say, ‘It’s time for beddy-bye.’ I hold them and sing a little song. By the time you know it, they are asleep.”

On being a working mommy:

“It’s gonna be a learning experience. How will I do both? I try to take breaks from work. I’ll do a little work with the choreographers and then come back. I try to spend every free moment with the babies."

On her recent triathlon experience:

“The triathlon really helped get me in better shape, and snapped me back into my body. I don’t weigh myself a lot. I still have 10 lbs., or so. [But] I don’t have any problems with it. I never felt I had to get rid of it.”

About accepting her body:

“We like to eat! I think you have to love yourself and indulge when you want to, as well as be happy and just have a healthy attitude towards it. Marc loves the way I look!”

I like a chick who likes to eat.

JLo Almost Drowns During Triathlon!! (Photos)

Sassy Smith — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 14:08:00 GMT

Jennifer Lopez completed the Malibu Triathlon with a finishing time of 3.5 hours, which is awesome right? However, it wasn't all smooth sailing, uh, well not sailing, but swimming - JLo almost didn't make it through the swim portion of the race!

More photos after the jump!

According to a source:

"Jennifer Lopez almost drowned while swimming through the Nautica Triathlon . . .The waves were to high for her as she started to submerge and was left missing for a couple of seconds until her trainer helped her out. When she reached enough depth where she could stand on her feet she gave a big smile showing relief."

Ha, I'd be panicked too - well, that is if I were to do a triathlon, which, of course will be, when pigs fly.

Months of training following the birth of her twins - Max and Emme - enabled Jennifer Lopez to partake in the Malibu Triathlon on Sunday September 14, with much success! The celebrity mom swam, biked and ran and did it all in 3.5 hours!

More photos after the jump!

After crossing the finish line, Lopez said to onlookers, "Thank you guys so much. This is an amazing day."

On JLo's recent Good Morning America appearance, the singer said, "I was beached like a whale. I was watching TV, and I saw a triathlon and I said, 'You know what? I think I could do that, that would be great for me to do. Maybe I'll do it this year.'"

And I guess she did! Congrats!

Jennifer Lopez is definitely a multi-tasker. Even while pregnant with twins, she worked, toured, acted, and designed. And she hasn't slowed down now that the babies, Max and Emme, are here. JLo is on the cover of Elle's September issue, and dishes on fashion, love,and family.

More photos after the jump!

J.Lo on Dolce and Gabbana:

“My babies! I love them, I love them, I love them.”

J.Lo on Donatella Versace:

“We’ve always had a very sweet relationship. I really got to know her more after her brother had died.”

J.Lo on Georgina Chapman:

“She could be a model—but meanwhile she’s down there pinning and sewing all these things all over you!”

J.Lo on shooting in Washington Heights with Oscar de la Renta:

“We were in the hoody! All kinds of locals hanging around, eating out of paper bags, thinking, what’s going on here? It was crazy.”

J.Lo on being pregnant and commissioning a book of photos of herself for Marc two weeks before giving birth:

“I was like, How am I going to rock this moment of my life?… I felt very womanly. Marc was in a dream. He loved it.”

J.Lo on not being able to get pregnant right away:

“We knew nothing was wrong with either one of us—I had been checked, and he had kids already. I knew Something’s not ready here, in my head or in my life, and when it is, I know it’s going to happen.”

J.Lo on first realizing she was pregnant:

“I was sitting down doing hair and makeup and I felt a flutter. The weirdest little…flourish. My makeup artist said ‘What’s the matter?’ I didn’t say anything, but in my head, I was like, I have life inside me!”

J.Lo on her pregnancy:

“We came off tour and I said ‘I did the superwoman thing, I finished the tour—now I need you to take care of me. I love doing things for you; if I’m not cooking, then I’m picking out a shirt. But this is the first time in my life where I’m just going to be a little bit selfish. I don’t know if I’m going to have kids again, so I want it to be a beautiful experience. I don’t want to have any drama. I want to just be smiling every day.’”
