Jennifer Lopez 2011 American Music Awards.
Despite rumors that have been shut down by Will, Jada & Marc Antony…many gossip websites/blogs are still feeding off this ish…SMH as you can see here, Marc & Will are cool…if he was sleeping with Jada I don’t WILL could have his arm around Marc, let alone have a pre-celebration for Marc’s 43rd birthday on Friday.

Marc Anthony and Will Smith attend the birthday celebration for Marc Anthony during the Miami Dolphins vs New England Patriots in Miami Gardens, Florida (September 12, 2011).
Too FAB reports — Marc Anthony had an interesting crew inside his birthday celebration at a Dolphins game last night — including Fergie, Sean Kingston and, most surprising of all, Will Smith.
Marc and Will made a deliberate display of camaraderie on Monday amid rumors that Anthony had an affair with Smith’s wife, Jada — rumors both have adamantly denied.
Marc and his ex, Jennifer Lopez, are part owners of the football team — as well as Fergie, who sang the National Anthem before the game.
Fergie’s husband, Josh Duhamel, also attended the bash, as well as Pitbull, who sings with Anthony on his latest single “Rain Over Me.”
ABC News has scored the first TV interview with Marc Anthony talking about his split with Jennifer Lopez.
In a promo teasing the highly anticipated interview, reporter John Quinones asks Anthony if he still loves J-Lo, to which he replies “I’ll always love Jennifer.”
ABC News will broadcast part of the interview on Thursday’s edition of Good Morning America and much more of it in a special Nightline on Thursday night.
Earlier this month, Lopez gave her first post-split interview to Vanity Fair. In the interview, the Jenny From The Block singer said despite her marriage ending, she still believes in love.
“It’s still my biggest dream. I am positive — determined to move forward with my life, bring up my babies, and do the best job I can as a mother, entertainer, and person. I now look forward to new challenges. I feel strong.”
Lopez also spoke about her feelings toward Anthony, saying she “will always respect Marc as a singer and performer … He will always be in our lives. He will always hold a special place in my heart as the father of my children.”
Say it ain’t so…yesterday Will’s oldest son took to Twitter saying the “separation rumor” wasn’t true & that his Dad and Jada were just fine…Will & Jada also put a halt to the rumor yesterday, or @ least we thought…
According to TMZ, Will Smith walked in on Jada Pinkett-Smith & Marc Anthony…according to inside sources, Will & Jada aren’t getting a divorce…as a matter of fact they are going on a family trip; but could this just be a diversion to stay away from “the truth” aka an effort to “WORK IT OUT”…either way I know it’s NONE of our business, but it’s JUICY!!!
The insiders say that the chemistry between Jada & Marc on set of “Hawthorne” & off is like BOOM!!! Hmmmm do we dare say, this might be TRUE?!?!? Did J-Lo & Marc Anthony split because of him & Jada???
I mean if it was marital bliss between Will & Jada would they make a statement saying “our marriage is in tact” why not go w/ “we are happily married & very much committed to each other” WTF does in tact mean??? That sounds more like a production agreement on the brink of 1 or more parties about to be in breech…what do you think?!?!?
TMZ reported: A suspicious Will Smith paid a surprise visit to Jada Pinkett Smith and found her with Marc Anthony … this according to a new report.
In Touch Weekly claims in early August Will had become increasingly suspicious that his wife was having an affair with her “HawthoRNe” co-star Marc Anthony and secretly flew home from a movie shoot — and if you saw “HawthoRNE,” you’ll understand why (clip below).
The mag claims Will walked in the house, found Marc Anthony and Jada together and left the house crying.
Reps for Will and Jada said Tuesday Jada had not been unfaithful to Will, specifically mentioning Marc Anthony in the denial. A source close to the couple tells TMZ … Marc was at Jada’s home, but in April not August, when he went over to look at a DVD.
In Touch claims Jada and Will have been living separate lives for months. As we reported, sources close to the couple insist they have not separated, but there are significant problems in their marriage.
&& later on posted this:
TMZ says: Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith are having significant problems in their marriage, but they have NOT made a decision to separate … at least not yet — this according to sources connected with the couple.
Reports have been swirling that the couple has separated. We’re told it’s “definitely a possibility” but they haven’t pulled the trigger. In fact, we’ve learned Will, Jada and their kids are going away together soon — as a family. Our sources would neither confirm nor deny if the trip is a last ditch effort to save the relationship.
We also asked our sources about the somewhat curious statement from Will and Jada, that their marriage is “intact.” Specifically, why didn’t they go the more traditional PR route and say they’re still in love and committed to each other? Our sources privately said, the language was carefully constructed.
WOW…I would have never known, they played it off so well in public. Sad that it ended, I wish them the best of luck & I hope for the TWINS sake they remain friends for a lifetime…makes having kids much easier when you like each other (parents)
Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony are ending their seven-year marriage. The couple said in a statement to People, “We have decided to end our marriage. This was a very difficult decision. We have come to an amicable conclusion on all matters.
“It is a painful time for all involved and we appreciate the respect of our privacy at this time.”
The singers were married in 2004.
They have two children together, twins Max and Emme.
Professionally, Lopez and Anthony are producers of the Latin American talent competition, Q’Viva (The Chosen). In June, Lopez declared that the show “is probably going to be the biggest thing I’ve been involved with yet.” Said Anthony of the endeavor, which took the couple to 21 countries: “It is with great pride that we embark on this amazing and very personal mission… We’re looking forward to experiencing history in the making.”
Lopez served as a judge on the most recent season of American Idol. She is credited with helping stabilize the show’s ratings, which had dropped dramatically during season 9. Viewership for the season 10 finale in May, Lopez’s first as a judge, was up 21% from the previous year.
In June, she told BBC Radio that she was “on the fence” about returning to Fox’s competition series for a second season. To date, Lopez has not confirmed her participation in season 11.
