Here are some photos of Jennifer Lopez going solo at the 2015 Billboard Latin Music Awards last night. Her white lace bodysuit/catsuit/jumpsuit was Zuhair Murad, one of her favorite go-to designers. I think Murad makes a lot of showgirl-looking clothes, but that kind of suits J.Lo’s vibe too. And let’s face it, even in a weight negligee-looking thing, she’s still beautiful.
Jennifer came out to the music awards to pay tribute to Selena Quintanilla, the Latin music star gunned down by a friend/con artist in 1995. So, this was the 20th anniversary of Selena’s murder and the Billboard Latin Music Awards wanted to pay tribute, and they got J.Lo, who famously played Selena in the bio-pic. That was J.Lo’s big star turn and she got a lot of notice for that film. Last night, she performed a medley of Selena’s hits along with Los Dinos, Selena’s former band.
After the music awards, J.Lo went out to dinner… with her on-again boyfriend Casper Smart. I say “on-again” like they ever really broke up. They did not. They just pretended to break up and kept seeing each other on the downlow, because Jennifer is an idiot when it comes to men. How big of an idiot? Well, Life & Style reports this week that J.Lo and Casper are probably engaged and planning a lavish wedding. Of course.
Wedding bells are ringing for Jennifer Lopez! The singer, 45, is planning to marry her 28-year-old boyfriend Casper Smart in an extravagant $3 million destination wedding this December, ‘Life & Style Weekly’ exclusively reports.
“She’s positive Casper is the one,” a source close to the couple told the magazine. “And she’s willing to pay a fortune to make her wedding day perfect. Jen is a romantic and believes this is what her life has been building up to,” the insider continued.
Though the couple have faced relationship troubles in the past — they broke up last June after dating for nearly three years — Casper’s loving relationship with Jennifer’s twins, Max and Emme, 7, has reportedly helped her see a future with the dancer.
“Casper reads them bedtime stories and he’s up at 6:00 a.m. making pancakes,” the source said. As for the twins’ role in their upcoming lavish nuptials? “It will be family-oriented with Emme as flower girl and Max as ring bearer,” the insider added.
Of course, a “source close to Lopez” told Gossip Cop that this story is “entirely false”. Except that J.Lo has a history of lying about her relationship with Casper, because she knows we think she’s an idiot when it comes to men and at least she feels some sense of shame. So is she planning to marry Casper? I wouldn’t be surprised. I also wouldn’t be surprised if Casper was the one holding up the wedding plans.

I also wouldn’t be surprised either, because that’s how homegirl rolls. This won’t end well.
Why on earth does she keep on doing this to herself? One would think she would be older & wiser by now. We’re not living in the 1950’s anymore, so it is fine to cohabit without having to get married. Especially to completely unsuitable douchebags
LOL! I can’t stop laughing. Knew she was headed down this path.
JLO has a pattern and she will keep doing the same thing over and over again until she gets some serious help.
I think she’s emotionally not together on some level. She can go to the gym, Botox her face into the next century , wear fun clothes until the cows come home, none of it will gloss over a messed up inner self. JMO
This Woman has some major issues!
Her ability to not be single is actually disturbing. Hiding it behind the “hopeless romantic” title is not working. She has emotional issues.
So she thinks he’s “the One”. No dear, he’s just Number Four. Such bad taste in men 🙁
How about a nice, quiet, small wedding for a lady that has been married before? Wouldn’t that be most appropriate?
In the 50s, maybe. She’s still an idiot, though.
Total idiot.
makes sense to me to tone it down too,allie may. Actually makes sense not to do it at all: the triumph of hope over experience I suppose.
I guess it can be lonely at the top for powerful and successful women and that can lead to some confused/desperate thinking…right? I mean what could be so great about this guy??
Well, if I were in her position and wanted a boy toy, it wouldn’t be him. Yecch.
What’s the excuse for her other three marriages and broken engagements and messy personal life. The woman has some major emotional issues, I don’t care how nicely it’s package.
Something is wrong with her. It’s not the guys. IMO
Most human beings have major emotional issues tho
@ Kaligula : Yes, most human beings have some emotional issues. But most of us don’t advertise it by marrying four times before we’re forty. She needs to address her own role in all of this before she can make it work with someone else.
P.S. : I thought she said Ben Affleck was “the one” and then Marc Anthony was “the (next) one”. Oh well. I had a friend who was like this. When she met a guy, she went on and on about how perfect he was and better than any other guy she had been with. And then a few months later, she would start ragging on how awful this former Mr. Perfect was and how he disgusted her with all of his flaws. I loved her as a friend but she drove me crazy. But she probably said the same about me 🙂
I hope this is not true. But then again I would not hold my breath on this.
I hope his love won’t cost a thing…
Who are we kidding?
Jenny, stop giving me secondhand embarrassment.
She should just hand over a ton of cash to him now and save the cost of the famewhorey wedding. No self-respect!! Is she so desperate that she has to settle for this dude? What a wonderfrul example she’s setting for her daughter… SMH
Yes, she is desperate
This reminds me of a joke I heard on Hawaii Five-O. It went “Why get married? Just find a woman (a man) you hate and give her (him) your house”. Same result here, I am afraid.
“Jen is a romantic and believes this is what her life has been building up to”.
LOLOLOLOLOL. Girl, I really hope THIS is not what your life has been building up too. Shameful.
Ugh, JLo singing Selena? No thank you! Although it was nice that they payed tribute to her, I can’t believe it’s been 20 years.
I can’t believe it either!!! She looks better than ever tho. #Genetics and #Money — in my nxt life perhaps. Oh yeah tho her singing voice is TRAGIC
She is a gorgeous woman. If I can look like that at 45, wow !!! Good for her! But too bad she is emotionally weak. Sad to know that she feels as though she can’t do better than Casper Smart. I mean come on!! Out of all the successful & creative men in and out of Hollywood that she is in contact with, i can’t wrap my brain around why she thinks Casper smart is THE ONE for her.?! Her self worth must be very low. I feel sorry for her.
@Dana m — I don’t know if her self-worth is low…I think she likes having the upper hand in relationships, and everyone likes the high and the adventure of being in love. Add to that the vanity reinforcements, and the overall fun of planning and having a wedding. She may be kind of addicted to it. I see entitlement more than low self worth.
Her performance sucked and so does that outfit but she does look beautiful.
At what point do you say marraige just isn’t for me? Divorce # 4? # 5? # 8? Her picker is completely broken.
I like Jennifer, always have. She always wore her heart on her sleeve and when interviewed have no problem discussion them during and when they end.
But with this clown, it is vague and secret or not at all. It was very telling when Benny Bedina came back as her manager ( real smart move) that she has a lot more self awareness than giving credit for.
So I say this as a fan. Just…stop.
Is this “idiotic” because it’s lavish, or who’s involved?
Both.
What kind of suit is Casper wearing? Is that mesh?
There’s absolutely no need to marry him. Why would she bother? If she does, she’s a complete bone head when it comes to relationships. It’s got to be him pushing for it. She better have an absolutely iron clad prenup if she does decide to make it legal. He probably wants more security which he figures he will get with marriage. If they do split down the road, he’d get some kind of financial reward/compensation for time spent.
From a woman who knows a thing or two about dating much younger men….
“The trouble with some women is that they get all excited about nothing – and then marry him.”
~ Cher
OK, which one of us is going to sit her down and give her the “Yes, he’s nice but you don’t have to marry him” speech?
I’m sorry but is there really anything to discuss here other than that cape, which is fabulous and instantly my new obsession?
I liked the cape too, but it needed to go over another ensemble.
I agree with you whole-heartedly – her outfit is the embodiment of The Prince and the Showgirl. I think it should go over an ensemble that, say, I am wearing.
The lace bodysuit has a place somewhere, but it is a place far more sequined and festooned with fringe.
Miss Eyre: OT. I recently watched a new version of ‘Jane Eyre’ starring Fassbender as Mr Rochester and Mia Waciolaska (sp?) as Jane and all I could think about was your reworking of the book. Everyone around me thought I might be somewhat deranged because I kept giggling at inopportune moments as we watched.
Your version is forever etched in my brain and I thank you for it. I’m heading to Cannes and can’t wait to see MACBETH also coincidentally starring Fassbender, and i’m looking forward to it whilst running your narrative in my head. 🙂
Oh, LAK bless you. That exact version is what inspired that first PlumeNotes. After a discussion with some colleguagues about the wonder that is Jane Eyre (that and a bottle of red) I rented Mr. Fassbender’s version and the very next day wrote TaCBitA. Because of this, Fassy always holds a special place in my heart. And is exactly why I go by this alias; I came out after almost a year of lurking here at CB right after that bit was published.
But, in the interest of full disclosure, when I think of Macbeth, I always think of The Mac.
It’s so good to “see” you.
jlo
jlo
WHAT are you doing?
how can this gorgeous, street wise creature with the world at her feet have anything to do with this youngster?
i just don’t get it.
she can have anyone…couldn’t she?
(ok, except for affleck…someone i believe she still holds a torch for…)
why does she do this?
cheapen herself?
she seems entirely with it…
smart, sharp minded.
why would she marry a kid?
is she so unaware of how foolish she looks?
NO
jlo
NO
BTW…how the hell does she continue to be so gorgeous year after year?
I heard a radio interview about her recently and I think JLO is a messed up person emotionally.
When are people going to admit this woman is just an emotional mess on some level?
IMO It’s NOT the men she picks It’s JLO.
She needs a manager for her personal life, because this woman is WHACK!
yeah, she must be.
so disappointing for someone on the outside who looks like she has everything.
except mature judgement.
still incredibly gorgeous though – gotta give her that!
I should think she’s got wedding plans – she is a huge romantic, says so herself. She is probably one of those people, always subconsciously looking for wedding venues. I just hope she’s got enough grasp of reality to content herself with planning this time, because Casper? I mean, really…
Yeah, I think she really loves weddings. It’s the marriages that she’s not so good at. I bet Caspar is really good with her kids. But that’s a poor reason to pick the guy as her FOURTH groom. Sad…
Don’t do it Jenny!!!
Could we discuss the Selena tribute.. I loved it teared up a little.
its not the men…It’s JENNIFER LOPEZ who is the problem. It doesn’t take another wedding for me to see that!
That guy is so gross. I can’t my brain around the level of stupid JLo has achieved by dating that loser.
I need an update… Why do we hate Casper again? I mean, he’s sort of potato looking but other than that? I think I remember some history about his being busted at a brothel with a transexual person or some such? Maybe he goes in several ways sexually and she doesn’t care or even passively supports his exploration.
Who knows? Or is there more? Is he a beater or something? I mean I’m not saying she deserves to be with a guy who needs brothels on top of their bedroom shenanigans but… I’m just feeling like I’m missing something to see the hate on this goober.
She looks AAHHHmazing!!
Not a huge “Jenny from the Block”-cough-fan, I think she’s probably your standard Hollywood insecure narcissistic monster diva who not only drinks her own kool-aid, but has it ladled into her mouth by her 24/7 entourage (I’m looking at you Mariah). She’s not a particularly great singer or actress, but girl knows how to hustle & shake a tail feather and I give her credit for parlaying that into A-List status. What the heck does she see in that little man-boy, he looks like a fish to me?
