Jennifer Lopez Dishes on Her Most Prized Possession

Jennifer Lopez was thrilled when her husband Marc Anthony gave her a 14-carat diamond band to celebrate their first wedding anniversary, and now she considers it among her most prized possessions.

She said: “My favorite piece of jewelry that I own is a ring my husband gave me for our first anniversary. It’s a solitaire, a 14 carat blue diamond ring, a very rare diamond. It was a big deal, I’d been married a year.”

Jennifer insists nothing is more important to her than her family, and admits she and Marc look forward to spending time at home with their three-year-old twins Max and Emme.

When quizzed on how she escapes the pressures of fame, she told Britain’s OK! magazine: “I go home. We go to our houses, that’s where we get to be alone and have family time. When we go on vacation to Cabo or Europe or a tropical island, there’s usually paparazzi. So it’s when we’re in our own home that we really get time to ourselves. We don’t get to be home very often so it feels like a vacation.”

J.Lo Almost Saves Karen Rodriguez from 'American Idol' Elimination

J.Lo Almost Saves Karen Rodriguez from 'American Idol' Elimination

When Karen Rodriguez was voted out of American Idol last night she was given one last chance to convince the judges to save her from elimination. She chose to sing Mariah Carey's "Hero" and at least one judge, Jennifer Lopez, was so moved that she was caught fighting back tears.

After huddling with the other judges, Randy Jackson broke the news to Karen that they wouldn't save her, but he also told her that decision was not unanimous among the three. It was obvious that J.Lo, a K.Ro fan from the beginning of the season, was choking back emotions after voting to save her from elimination.

"This is not unanimous, I must say," Randy started out. "I mean we talked about this quite a bit. The judges here, we're not going to use the save tonight unfortunately. Thank you very much though."



Jennifer pushed her chair away from the judges table as Randy finished and appeared to be biting her lip. This isn't the first time she's shown emotion during an elimination. When the judges eliminated Chris Medina, whose wife is suffering from serious brain damage following a car accident, J.Lo wept and openly questioned her ability to be a judge on the show.

Jennifer Lopez Checks In with Regis & Kelly

Jennifer Lopez Checks In with Regis & Kelly

Spending another day tending to her "American Idol" press duties, Jennifer Lopez paid a visit to ABC Studios in New York City on Wednesday morning (February 2).

Sporting a sexy black leather dress, the Bronx native took time to sign a few autographs after taping an episode of "Live with Regis and Kelly."

The Big Apple studio visit comes amidst continuous reports of a rift between Jennifer Lopez and fellow "Idol" judge Steven Tyler.

Claiming that Lopez is fuming over Tyler having stolen the spotlight, a source told press, “She’s mystified at how this happened and has made it very clear to the producers that the cameras need to spend a little more time adoring Jennifer’s favorite idol — herself."


Jennifer is also dealing with the fact that she hasn't been able to help improve ratings, as the insider told, “The show has experienced year-to-year declines of about 10 percent for the last several seasons now, so everyone expected ratings to drop. The only question was how much they drop. And although the show did drop, it still produced huge numbers easily beating all its competition. Last week’s episode was actually up from last Thursday’s episode by nearly 18 percent, and was down only 9 percent from the equivalent episode last year."

New Jennifer Lopez Single: What Do You Think?

New Jennifer Lopez Single: What Do You Think?

Jennifer Lopez really is attempting a comeback.

As you may have heard, the former A-lister will judge American Idol this season, while also pushing a few new singles on the public. The first, titled "On the Floor," has been released online.

It's upbeat, it features (extended) guest rapping by Pitbull and, we're sorry to say, but this artist would have been better off living with Michael Vick a few years ago. Seriously, this is pretty bad stuff...

Jennifer Lopez And Ryan Seacrest Say ‘American Idol’ Has A Totally New Vibe

 Jennifer Lopez And Ryan Seacrest Say ‘American Idol’ Has A Totally New Vibe

We’re just a few weeks away from the premiere of ‘American Idol’s’ 10th season. Ryan Seacrest, Randy Jackson, and Jennifer Lopez share that it’s different without Simon and there’s a completely new feel to the show.

Randy Jackson shared that everyone wants to know who the “new” Simon is:

“we definitely miss [Cowell], but it’s a different kind of vibe. It’s a different energy now. It’s not about replacing [Cowell] or any of the others. People have been saying to us, ‘Who’s mean?’ We’ve traded off on that because I think you have to always give people the truth, no matter what.”

Jennifer Lopez says it’s more of a group effort now:

“We’re more of a collaborative judging group. We’re always leaning over to each other and saying, ‘Oh my God, I think she’s good.’ ‘Or, I don’t get it.’ ‘You don’t like it?’ ” she tells the magazine. “We just have a totally different style than any of the past judging tables.”

Ryan Seacrest adds:

It’s going to be an all new show,” Seacrest says.

Are you ready for an “all new” Idol? I have to admit that my curiosity is piqued by the new judges, so I might take a look to see how the dynamic has changed.

Steven Tyler Won't Act Like Simon Cowell

Having already sat in for numerous season 10 auditions, Steven Tyler has a clear idea of how he'll serve as an American Idol judge. And it won't be akin to a certain cantankerous Brit.

"I'm really not one for giving insults," Tyler says. "[Contestants] have a voice and I don't want them not singing to their kids when they grow up."

The show will likely feature fewer trainwrecks during its opening set of episodes, which should make things easier for Tyler. Below, however, this Christmas promo does give voice to those without a good voice:

As for his new partner in judging, Tyler has nothing but great things to say about Jennifer Lopez.

"First and foremost, she's a lady and she's not afraid to show that at any given time... she's exactly what I thought she'd be. She's street."

Well... okay then. Chime in now, readers: Are you excited about the addition of Tyler and Lopez to American Idol?

Jennifer Lopez Fighting Release Of Tapes Of Her Exposing Herself

 Jennifer Lopez Fighting Release Of Tapes Of Her Exposing Herself

Jennifer Lopez has probably burned a couple of effigies of ex-husband Ojani Noa at this point, but the guy just won’t go away. Radar Online reports the new ‘American Idol’ judge has attorneys back in court to block the release of more private videos that supposedly show the actress exposing herself.

“JLo is riding a scooter in public in Cuba, while talking to the camera and numerous by-standers, with her privates in as plain view asParis Hilton, Brittany Spears and Lindsay Lohan have in the past,” said Ed Meyer, a rep for Lopez’s ex-hubby.

“This is among other nudity on her part in the now 21 hours of home movies, that we have so far recovered.”

The tape does not contain full-on sex, but is said to grant a revealing glimpse of the singer, including her with “no underwear” and “vagina in plain view”, RadarOnline.com has learned.

Apparently, Ojani and Ed Meyer are planning to make a feature film of Ojani’s one-year marriage to Jennifer, and these home videos are part of it.

Jennifer’s attorneys reportedly are claiming the release of these videos violates the injunction she has in place, but Ed is arguing he (as a co-producer) isn’t bound to this agreement.
