Jennifer Brings the Lopez Effect to Allure

She's still not talking about her pregnancy, but Jennifer Lopez did open up to Allure magazine about tabloids, her family and career. J Lo graces the cover of the November issue to promote her upcoming album Brave and a film she has in production, called Love and Other Impossible Pursuits where a woman desperate for children accepts her fate as a stepmother — a plot perhaps mirroring her own relationship to Marc's three children? Here's more:

  • Jennifer on not wanting to be in the tabloids: “I know how uncomfortable that life is, how destructive. That’s why you see people crumble under the pressure,” Lopez says, kicking her feet up on a swivel chair. “It’s a tricky thing, the tabloids. I know that a lot of people read them, and they gauge who’s hot and who’s not by who is on the cover.” Her voice going flat, she adds: “If that’s what being hot is right now, I don’t want to be that.”
  • Jennifer on self esteem: "I can do anything. Just get me in the room; do me a favor. Then I’ll make it happen on my own,’” Lopez says. “It’s not that you get every audition, but you make fans along the way.”
  • Jennifer on looking back: “I wouldn’t change anything,” she adds, “because it was so fun. Even when things were hard, even if I’d be crying in the bathtub because I didn’t get an audition, or a boyfriend was being mean to me, I had my presence of mind. Whatever it was, I always used to say” —in a whisper— “‘This is my life.’”
  • With a life like J Lo's, it's hard to imagine there is much room for regret among all of her success. And pregnant or not, she appears to be in a great place in her life with Marc and her many, many projects.

    Lots more pictures of Jennifer looking beautiful so just read more

    Zahara that pic is hilarious!!!! Thank Goodness I've never ever spent any money on any of her CD's and movies. Whew!

    The movies title sounds intriguing, let's hope it's better than EL Cantante.

    I bet she'll play a gum chewing rican stepmom with a cigarette on the side of her mouth and rolos (curlers) on scraping burnt eggs from a frying pan.

    She loves being in the tabloids, thats why she is playing the whole I'm not pregnant game. Keeps the photogs at her door.

    She's pretty, doesn't need all that photoshop on the cover. However, loved the B&W picture.

    Aw, I feel bad for Allure.
    They probably booked her specifically for the pregnancy rumors and got nothing.

    Dear Ms. Lopez,
    You are not nor will you ever be Selena. Everyone LOVED Selena. She was a trendsetter to us South Texans; she was a true talent; she was real. You, preciosa, are not. You try too hard, and fail miserably. To say this: "I can do anything. Just get me in the room...Then I’ll make it happen on my own...you make fans along the way" confirms that you even realize that you are not talented. Selena has that personality you want and try to pass off as having but don't. I know I should be proud of you, my fellow Hispanic, because you are a corporation, but there is a huge difference between doing a few things and doing a few things extraordinarily well. You bore me. Even moreso now. (Just confirm your pregnancy, so everyone can move on!) It's not about jealousy, believe me. You are getting a bit old now, so give up the pop star thing--you are unsuccessful at it (let Marc handle that aspect, please, he was BORN to sing). I seriously hope you are pregnant, so you will go away for awhile.

    Finally! I have been a dedicated Allure reader and it has taken forever to get her on the cover. Maybe I am wrong or maybe there are other issues but its great. JLo is one of those people who you love or hate. I think she is fabulous.
