As we learned on Friday, Jennifer Lopez and Casper Smart FINALLY broke up. I think we can all safely say that Jennifer got in too deep with a guy who should have just been a month-long fling… and probably not even that. I updated Friday story, but in case you didn’t see this, here is what a “source” told TMZ about Casper’s alleged dalliances with two trans models:
“Casper has been a single guy and can text or see whoever he wants, but the idea that he was knowingly texting a transsexual is laughable.” The source added, “He’s not that guy, but like a lot of single guys online he obviously likes to look at a ‘lil T and A.”
Like, Casper is too important and too “butch” to really sleep with trans models, I guess that’s what he wants us to think. That he just likes to “look”, but it was never anything serious. Because “ew gross” with trans individuals…? The whole thing is just so… ugh. Casper needs to shut his mouth. Forever.
Anyway, in case you care, Team Jennifer is still running to every outlet to try to explain the timeline. I don’t really care, do you? I think it’s pretty obvious that Casper and Jennifer were still very much together as of two weeks ago, then the emails-to-trans-models thing came to light, and J.Lo finally had a moment of clarity. But Team Jennifer wants you to think that they were done months ago. Oh, and Casper’s still living at her place. Because of course he is. Meanwhile, Casper let this gem drop to Us Weekly:
Casper Smart wasn’t Jennifer Lopez’s “First Love,” and now that they’ve split, he likely won’t be her last, either. As reported earlier on Friday, June 6, the backup dancer-turned-choreographer and the “I Luh Ya Papi” singer have ended their two-and-a-half-year relationship — and insiders tell Us Weekly their careers are at least partly to blame.
A source close to Lopez, 44, says she went “back and forth” about the breakup but ultimately decided it was best to end things. Both she and Smart, 27, have been busy with work in recent weeks, and will be even busier in the coming months. (Lopez is preparing to release her new album, A.K.A., and her ex is attempting to make a move to TV and film.)
“He is trying really hard to launch his acting career,” the source tells Us of Smart, who appeared as a dancer in Step Up 3-D, and has a role in the upcoming movie Restored Me. “He doesn’t want to be known as just her boyfriend.”
Another insider echoes that sentiment, and adds that Lopez is supportive of her ex’s desire to break out on his own, professionally speaking. “Casper is focused on acting and going on auditions,” the source tells Us, “and Jen has completely supported that.”
Oh, Casper. Honey, NO. You hit the lottery when you became J.Lo’s pool boy, too bad you were too stupid to ride that money train into marriage. Because I hate to break it to you, Casper, but you are not going to make it in Hollywood on your own, without a wealthy benefactor willing to overlook the fact that you will blatantly cheat on her with everyone and everything. You are not going to make it. At all. But it’s adorable and sad that you think anyone will remember you beyond “that guy who conned his way into J.Lo panties for a few years.” Welcome to Hollywood, douchebag.

Casper, please see Exhibit A: Clooney’s exes. *crickets* That’s right. You over, papi.
LMAO!!!
LOL
yep.
sit down and shhhhhhhhh….
WORD.
trick.
Hahhahahhaah
He’ll be worse off than them I think. They always parted on good terms and IIRC he buys them a house or something as a goodbye gift usually.
How about Jennifer Lopez’z “gay ex boyfriend” instead?
Or “tranny loving ex boyfriend”.
I was just going to say that!!!
The tranny sex angle will be around a lot more for him than the JLo ex tag.
For her, the “ex who sexted the trannies” thing is going to be a tough one to shake off.
@phd gossip.
Please no ‘tranny’. It’s not a nice word and pretty much the equivalent of racial slurs against ppl of colour. Ru Paul may say it, but even that’s hotly contested.
This is the thing I hate the most about these stories. As if being attracted to a transsexual woman makes you less of a ‘man’. It’s absolutely ridiculous. It denies the personhood of a woman who had to work her ass off, socially, emotionally and financially and has probably faced more hate than we can imagine.
Tldr: Stop saying tranny. Stop acting like transsexual women or men are lesser. And please stop using someone’s interest in a person, a person who deserves love and attention just like anyone, as an insult.
@Detritus. thank you for writing this. i thought the same thing.
Yes! I think this is what most people will think…if they ever care to think about this guy again.
I still don’t believe the romantic angle. There never seemed to be sexual heat/chemistry between the two. Will & Grace.
lol Will & Grace.. that’s great
I didn’t intend it as a jab. I think that they probably had a close emotional relationship, for a time.
That has got to be the most unflattering outfit I’ve ever seen J.Lo wear. Usually her outfits are on point, but that black dress makes her look like a whale.
RIP, Casper. On to the next boy toy!
Yeah, its so cheap looking.
And Casper is really weird looking with hair, it makes his forehead look huge.
Casper, you dumb twat. You coulda had it all. But you blew it with your ego and dumb ass moves. BUH-BYE!
This guy makes Kevin Federline look clever. Wow.
Casper-not-so-smart is just Chris Judd 2.0 but Chris found a way to stay famous – building a studio, working with dancers and managing small appearances on some reality tv. Maybe Casper should be more realistic in his approach to post-J. Lo
Dancing with the stars. I don’t think it matters anymore that he was a professional.
time for Casper to make like a ghost and disappear
OHMYGOSH that is hilarious! good one
Yeah, just like Cris Judd, he will totally make it in Hollywood. Good riddance!
who is Cris Judd?
Yeah he’s that guy who… Who?
You guys are so unfair. He’s already been offered a lead role in a movie! The person he was sexting with has signed on for a porn video and he’s been offered the lead. He should take it; it’s the only lead he’ll ever be offered.
I will never understand what she saw in him. He looks gross and it’s not like he’s got a nice character or something to make up for it. He’s stupid and gross.
Except for Ben Affeck, I think the same is true for most of her exes including Marc Anthony.
And I read somewhere that they want the title of the porn movie to be “Casper The Friendly Host”, hahahaha!!
I wonder if he would understand the term “delusions of grandeur”? For instance, if someone sat him down, asked him if he had ever head the term, taught him how to pronounce it correctly/read it off a page, and then slowly, as though with baby blocks, explained to him what this term meant. Would he get it even then?
Personally, I doubt it but hey. Stranger things have happened.
Frida – that’s funny!!! No, he would not get it.
Ahahahahah he wants what? So hilarious!
Again, I ask-WTF is wrong with her brain in the Man Choices Dept?!?!
The best he could do is teach kids how to dance at a community centre.
Then he might do some porn, escort work and finally flip burgers.
Cruel but true. I’m guessing he hasn’t saved any money for, you know, a college education. That would be beneath him – maybe he should consider where the cast of the Jersey Shore is right now. And he’s far less popular than they were.
I smell a gig on The Shopping Channel hawking his own line of fitness videos.
I can imagine how her whole team went nuts dealing with this lowlife. Good riddance. How about Antonio Banderas next?
He had a hot sugar momma who elevated him from just dancer to lead choreographer of her last tour and prominent dancer also and choreographer for her music videos. She pushed him out in the forefront in interviews on red carpets, etc. He had a friend who said he was gay . She stayed with him last year after he was photographed coming out of a porn theatre that was known to be frequented by gays at the peep shows. Now, he’s been outed for texting with not one, but two transexuals. he’s either gay or bi-sexual. But she couldn’t overlook it anymore when he’s embarrassing her to the general publc on twitter while she’s footing the bills . There goes the money train. Good luck with that career. He messed up a good thing.
If I were her, I would be less worried about trying to defend myself to the public and more concerned about getting an HIV test pronto! Because if you’re doing the do with a guy that’s messing with others while you’re involved then you need to know your status unless it was a fake relationship. I’m just sayin.
U are absolutely correct. She could do a public service and publicize her Aids test.
I doubt she’s slept with him in some time. J.Lo strikes me as the type who enjoys the power of being a sugar mama but could care less about the sex.
+1000. @PHD gossip – if Lopez did get an AIDS test she wouldn’t publicize it out of pride. To her it’s announcing to the world some low-level guy played her.
I agree aquarius 64, she doesn’t need to publicize her STD test because that is solely her business, but she does need to know her status for her own sake and the sake of her kids.
Men need to let women know if they’re a man that sleeps with other men as well as women, because when they don’t, they open up women to a higher possibility of catching the HIV/AIDS virus.
He is so adorable. He thinks he can make it just with his ‘talent’.
Cute as a button!
I hate reality shows, but I would watch one that corralled all the gold digging ex’s from Hollywood together and had them compete for a SEARS catalog layout.
So, decorative item, are YOU coming to my house to clear the coffee off my screen?? :’D
I think she needs to come to MY house first…I need a Heimlich to get a piece of popcorn unlodged from my throat…STAT!
Sorry, can’t help. Right now I’m far too busy designing the MAZE OF DOOOOOM. Winning female gets to model big underpants. Winning male gets the indoor footwear tool belt combo. Trust me, lives will change.
Brilliant!!!!! There would be viewing parties for this.
Erm, decorative item, I think perhaps you have won the internets for the day. Now could you give me a quick Heimlich so I can return to this piece of toast I was chewing?
OMG, I just posted the exact thing….with popcorn as the culprit!
Hope he saved enough money from his allowance to get rid of some tats before he tries to storm into the movie world.
Bye, buy Casper! Don’t let the door hit ya where the Good Lord split ya!
Casper Smart: The new Chris Judd.
My thoughts exactly…
I thought this too so I looked him up and it seems he’s had a pretty prolific, just not star studded, career since their marriage. He walked in with talent, he learned and when his time was over, kept going. This Casper guy, on the other hand, is a hustler, pure and simple. His ego got him into the game and his ego got him out. No one respects him, no one really even likes him. Adios, weasel.
Sounds about right to me, Sea Dragon.
Cris Judd is way better than Casper will ever be.
I wouldn’t tar Cris Judd with the same brush. I never got a “golddigger” or “kept man” vibe from him. Even though JLo kind of used him to show Puffy she had moved on, I think it was a genuine relationship.
Cris Judd did okay. He walked away with six million. If Casper was smart, he would have negotiated much the same deal. Keeping his lips sealed is a small price to pay for walking away with a nice pay off.
He doesn’t have to worry, he’ll also be known as a delusional douchebag.
Poor, silly, talent free boy. I saw him do a walk on in some already forgotten sitcom episode. He wasn’t good, it was only irksome that some hardworking actor got screwed out of a job for a ‘boyfriend.’
PS- loving the idea posited above that we could fix her up with Antonio Banderas…too bad he’s about 40 years ‘too old.’
I feel bad for her kids, I hope she doesn’t do the instant family with the next boy toy or male friend because her kids are going to have abandonment issues…..
If its not serious keep the kids away
I was hoping for a long time Jennifer would get back together with Marc Anthony after she got over her mid-life crisis and need for young blood. I fear she’ll be another Demi Moore style cougar and the next guy will be some Ashton type douche.
And I know everyone wants to see her with David Gandy but I want Pedro Pascal to use his apparently magical man-bits and help her bang her way out of the broken heart Casper left her with and hopefully out of cougardom. I don’t want them to have a relationship, I just want her papped doing the walk of shame from his apartment in NYC a few times. Then I want her to hook up with Gandy…or a newly single Antonio Banderas which could be smart career revitalizations for both of them.
That would be a great trio for her – Gandy, Pascal and Banderas, in any order. Love to see it, but her history seems to indicate that she prefers her men to be less accomplished and have lower profiles than hers. Onward and upward, Jennifer!
She’ll go for high profile then go low profile but there’s always extremes and no happy medium. I think it’s time for her to go somewhere in middle which is why Pedro and David are decent choices. These men are higher profile reasonably accomplished but not higher than her profile and realistically they will never be more accomplished than her. Antonio would be the smart career revitalization choice that would benefit both of them but I just can’t see her going that route, in reality.
I like both of them (Pedro and David) too much to see them getting together with her.
I couldn’t see her in a real long-term relationship with Pedro. Maybe because I think of Pedro too much as the actual Red Viper and seriously think he’s an actual Don Juan minus RV’s bisexuality and accent. But I can see him “helping” Jennifer by banging away her broken heart.
David Gandy is everyone else’s choice but I don’t think she is his type. The move her people will want to make is Antonio Banderas but I think she is better off having some casual sex with someone out of the public eye, maintaining single status and focusing on being a parent to her kids. I think being out of the public eye for about 2 years will do her good. Because really, she has pretty much gone non-stop since 1998 minus a year after her kids were born and she’s over saturated herself. Let her come back and solely focus on music, I think she’d make a killing in Las Vegas àla Britney Spears.
So Casper doesn’t want to be known JUST as JLo’s boyfriend. Really? Hasn’t seemed to bother him much the past couple of years to be known as that and only that. So delusional. Maybe he can give Chris Judd a call for tips on how to fade away into oblivion.
I’m looking forward to seeing the next Skeletor she digs up. She definitely has a type!
He’s only 27 years old. First he’s castigated for being her boy toy, living off of her, using her to get ahead and now because he’s trying to show a little ambition. Unless he’s completely deaf and dumb he has to hear these things. He may be a douche, I guess, but at least he’s trying to do something different.
Aww that’s cute Casper. We all have dreams. Keep it up kiddo.
Man, is he weird looking. It’s actually kinda creeping me out.
So Casper Not-So-Smart, let’s see how much access you have now to the best clubs, restaurants, stores and Hollywood movers and shakers now that J-Lo gave you the old heave-ho.
Damn..I forgot all about him, and now the memories come flooding back. Oh well, at least I know I won’t be seeing him anymore.
Can we refrain for the ‘everyone and everything’ phrase, especially when there is discussed of trans people? It’s horrible and mean.
She’s the kind of woman that can stand up in her professional life and has so much talent. Don’t know why she just just can’t heal from her relationships and be alone for a while. Nothing wrong in being famous and just being a good mother. It’s not like she’s ever left alone for long periods of time with family and children accompanying her including her help and staff. She needs some serious counseling.
i bet she sends him off with a little cash…
