‘Marc is always big on romantic gestures, but this was his most impressive yet,’ a source tells the Sunday Mirror.

‘She’s been gushing to everyone about what a great guy she married.’

Jennifer Lopez shares friend Donatella's big night

Guest of honour Donatella Versace, who also received a Superstar Award on the night, was surrounded by close friends and family, including Jennifer Lopez and daughter Allegra, as she attended a special Night Of Stars evening in the Big Apple.

There was, of course, only one label for the glamorous trio to wear to the event, which took place in a chic Manhattan restaurant - Versace.

As she arrived with her Latin music star husband Marc Anthony, Jennifer's honed post-pregnancy figure was shown off to perfection in a rose petal-hued dress - cut in the latest trend at the shoulder. Donatella wore a similarly bias-ruched affair in black, while 22-year-old Allegra had opted for a sugar plum-coloured, cap-sleeve affair.

The modish trio mingled with fellow fashionistas such as Chanel's Karl Lagerfeld at the bash, where honours were also bestowed on Calvin Klein creative director Francisco Costa and Burberry's Christopher Bailey. Both of whom were named Fashion Star honourees.

Joining leading lights from the style scene were Kate Bosworth, Will & Grace's Debra Messing.

Jennifer Lopez's SATC sequel

Jennifer Lopez wants to appear in the next 'Sex and the City' movie.

'The Wedding Planner' star was a huge fan of the hit US TV show, and always wanted a cameo role, but is now hoping to be cast in the movie sequel.

She is quoted as saying: "I adore the show and nearly popped up in the TV show, but then did 'Will and Grace' instead."

A source said: "Jennifer has got her heart set on joining Carrie and the girls. The bosses are trying to think of a way of fitting her in without it being cheesy."

If Jennifer gets her wish, she wouldn't be the first celebrity to appear in 'Sex and the City'.

Actress Heather Graham and supermodel Heidi Klum both played themselves in past episodes.

Former Spice Girls star Geri Halliwell appeared on the show in 2003, while her ex-bandmate Victoria Beckham is rumoured to have been lined up for the next film.

Jennifer Lopez reveals breakdown

Jennifer Lopez suffered a nervous breakdown after working too hard.

The singer-and-actress, who has two children with husband Marc Anthony, was working on movie 'Enough' in 2002 when she "froze" and realised she had to slow down.

She told website The Daily Beast: "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 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'.

"I kept saying, 'I'm not weak. I'm not weak.' It's funny what tricks your mind plays on you. I just didn't want people to think I was falling apart."

Jennifer decided not to consult a therapist about the breakdown, but followed her doctor's instructions to take a break from her hectic schedule.

She added: "My bodyguard picked me up and put me in the car and they took me to a doctor. Right away they want to give you pills. But I have never liked the idea of pills and kept saying no. My doctor said. 'You're sleep deprived. You're overworked. Go home and go to bed.' He told me to go back to work on Monday after a weekend of sleeping. So that's what I did. I've still never been to a shrink. I'm not a shrinky person."

Jennifer Lopez, Mark Anthony, Matthew McConauhey check out pyjama-inspired looks at D&G's Milan show

Italian fashion duo Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana presented a 'come to bed'-based collection this week in Milan.

With VIP guests including Jennifer Lopez and Mark Anthony in the audience for the D&G show, the designers unveiled their new line for spring entitled "Pyjama Baroque".

Traditional men's pyjamas are the inspiration for the designs, which encompassed silk pyjama jackets in red and navy polka-dots styled with ostrich feather and crystal bead skirts.

The pyjama top was even presented as the ideal choice for an evening out. In a silvery hue it lent its lines to the top half of a ballgown - teamed with a metallic tulle crinoline embellished with dozens of silk roses, peonies and camellias.

The alternative tack received an enthusiastic reception from front row guests, who also included Dita Von Teese and new parents Matthew McConaughey and his Brazilian model partner Camilla Alves. All moved onto designer Domenico's golden age-themed 50th birthday party.

At Versace the approach for next season was futuristic, with boxy, spaceman-inspired jackets, the silhouettes of which were textured with gleaming, gold and silver crocodile-style detailing. Another collection highlight was a series of mini-dresses in candy pink, fluorescent yellow and monochrome.

Jennifer Lopez Happy To Keep The Baby Weight

She says she's content with her body...

Jennifer Lopez has confessed she still has 10 pounds worth of baby weight to shift but isn't stressing out about slimming down to her pre-pregnancy weight.

The curvy singer says that she never felt the pressure to lose weight after giving birth to twins Emme and Max in February and is very happy with the way she looks.

Whilst training for the Nautica Malibu Triathlon helped her tone up, it hasn't brought the diva down to her original weight.

She tells People.com, “I don't weigh myself a lot. I still have 10 pounds, or so. (But) I don't have any problems with it. I never felt I had to get rid of it."

Husband Marc Anthony is also enjoying having a little something extra to grab a hold of.

Jen adds, “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."

"I was beached like a whale," Lopez — Self magazine's Most Inspiring Woman of 2008 — said on ABC's Good Morning America last month.

"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,'" she explained.

"Swimming is a killer," Lopez admitted. "I'm not going to lie."

Jennifer Lopez: Flight attendant tries to cash in 2.5million for dog bite

A flight attendant has launched a 2.5million lawsuit against Jennifer Lopez and her husband Marc Anthony.

Lisa Wilson says the couple’s German Shepherd, Floyd, bit her on the leg during a private flight from New York to California.

She claims she then fell over and suffered a serious back injury, which has left her unable to work.

Her lawyers say Jennifer, 39, should have had a muzzle or a leash on the mutt.

Marc, 39, was not originally named in the lawsuit but has now been added as Floyd is his pet.

‘I was told by her counsel that Marc Anthony was the registered owner of the dog,’ Lisa's lawyer William Cafaro tells the New York Daily News.

It is also alleged that Jennifer warned Lisa how to behave around Floyd.

Jennifer Lopez: Weight crisis tearing family apart!

After giviing birth to twins Max and Emme in February, renowed workaholic Jennifer Lopez has been training day and night for a triathlon she’s competing in on 14 September.

‘I thought: “What can I do to make my babies proud?”’ J-Lo revealed. ‘It’s very important for me to set an example for both of them.

‘If I have to crawl across that finish line, I’m going to. I keep telling myself when I’m training: “This is for charity. Don’t embarrass the family! Get it done, Lopez!”’

But behind her public positivity, the 39-year-old is suffering a weight crisis that’s starting to tear her family apart.

According to our source, she gained 55lb while pregnant and has lost 38lb so far. But she’s hit a wall trying to burn off the remaining stubborn pounds, no matter how much training she does.

And despite struggling to balance the challenges of motherhood, J-Lo’s refusing to reduce her gruelling exercise regime and rarely eats more than 1,000 calories a day.

Frantic husband Marc Anthony, 38, who’s had to bear the brunt of her moods, finally snapped and ordered her to consult a doctor. She was diagnosed with an underactive thyroid gland, which causes the body to ‘slow down’.

This means J-Lo has to try even harder and this pressure has had a knock-on effect at home. Even though she and Marc are madly in love, there have been some tense moments.

'Let's just say some of their discussions have been pretty explosive,' says our insider.

Jennifer Lopez And Marc Anthony At Foxtail

Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony were out at Foxtail last night.

I was looking at J-Lo’s IMDB page and she actually has some upcoming movies listed on there. Not sure how she’s gonna do that without a nanny…

The Governess (2009) (pre-production)
Love and Other Impossible Pursuits (2009) (pre-production)

Marc was recently quoted by The Sun about how he tends to the cries of his five-month-old twins Max and Emme in the middle of the night:

“Jennifer pushes me out of bed to go and check on the twins if they are crying. Absolutely.”

And adds how much he is enjoying his role as daddy:

“We share the parenting responsibilities. We are a team. I love being a dad and that is a big part of it. My family is strong and my foundations are good and they give me so much energy. So I have energy to look after them and energy to work. I am on top of the world right now. Everything is so much more fulfilling and I love coming home to them.”

Call Jennifer Lopez Mellow Yellow

Wow. Jennifer Lopez looks amazing. Here she is with hubby Marc Anthony as the two of hem leave out the back door of the Waverly Inn restaurant. I can't believe this woman has had twins. Her knees even look like they're in shape and from the looks of the guy behind her, I'm guessing her booty's regaining its impressive pre-baby shape. Seriously, that dude is about to lose his mind and/or require a quick trip to the bathroom momentarily.

Meanwhile, why is Marc Anthony dressing like an evil ivory trader from a Disney movie? Hmm, maybe he's still sulking from agreeing to one day hand his babies over to aliens. I can understand his frustration--they're meant to be raised by their own kind, vampires. Vampires and aliens simply do not mix.
