SPLITSVILLE! Jennifer Lopez & Marc Anthony Announce Separation!

Jul 15 | by Natasha

Wow! Well this one came out of nowhere.  In the shocker of the day, "American Idol" judge and singer Jennifer Lopez and her singer hubby of 7 years, Marc Anthony, just announced they're headed to SPLITSVILLE.

 

Deets on their separation and impending divorce when you read on....

 

On the heels of allegedly being only a couple steps away from signing a close to $20 million deal to return to "American Idol" for another season, J to the L-O is about to find herself single again.

41-year-old Jenny and 42-year-old Marc Anthony put out a whopper of a joint announcement today stating they have made the difficult decision to separate:

"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," the statement continues, "and we appreciate the respect of our privacy at this time."

The twosome seemed to be one of the picture perfect couples head over heels in love--even through the hard times of attempting to get pregnant with their now 3-year-old twins Max and Emme.  They made one of their last joint appearances last month at the Samsung Hope for Life Gala.  I guess all the duets in the world couldn't save them.

I always wrote off the rumors that Marc was uber controlling and always had that look in his face...you know THAT look...when Jenny was giving intimate details to their relationship in interviews and such.  We still don't know if any of it is/was true. But..damn homie. 

On a sidenote, is this NOT Cassie and Kim Porter's worst nightmare?  Good luck with that girlies....

THE RANDOMNESS:

1.  And in other semi-schocking news, Taylor Armstrong of "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" (my fave franchise of them all really) is filing for divorce from her husband Russell today!  What's REALLY hood?  But we did kinda see this coming though....Story

omg people. Puerto Rican is

omg people. Puerto Rican is not a race. It's a country where those of African and Hispanic Dedescent got together and did their thing...the same way africans came to america and created us, is the same way Africans came to peurto rico and created them...There's only two differences 1) Hispanics and Africans had more sexual relations than africans and whites did. That's why Peurto rican's look like them and African Americans look like us...2) Puerto Rican's in a America have done a better job of preserving their culture (of course we werent allowed to have one) but technically you could call someone Hailing from Puerto rico BLACK... and she's on the ybf for the same reason she's on BET. YA'll the VIEWERS put her there.

I'm confused, you say PR is not a race but then you reference this "group" as PRs by the end of your statement. PRs call themselves PRs, what are you talking about?

Honestly, I think she married

Honestly, I think she married old boy Marc simply to even the score with Ben Affleck, who was married at the time. She seems very petty.

That's exactly what it was about - getting even! She swore up & down that she loved Ben but as soon as he dumped her she married Marc. Anyone could see she was settling for Marc. She is a user - plain & simple!

With all due respect to the other opinons here, I believe the E.I.C. (Editor-In-Chief) reserves the right to upload information about any minority celebrity. J.Lo gets love here, as well as Zoe Saldana and I believe I've seen Rosario Dawson here a few times as well so.. I guess what I'm trying to say is, it's not that serious. Essence shows Kim Kardashian love all the time! So, like, sit back, relax and just chill!

Ironically, the title of this website does necessarily reflect those who are featured on it. Those who are fabulous may not be black. Those who are black and fabulous may not be young. Those who are young may be neither fabulous or black. Such is life!

This comes as no surprise.

This comes as no surprise. This woman is too superficial and fake to stay married. Staying married to Marc would mean she would eventually have to accept and act her age. Got the nerve to be bitching & demanding more on American Idol AS IF she got skills. IMO she was vastly overpaid . Then when I saw her last mode of dress on 106 & Park then the video with lil wayne, I knew for sure she was back on the prowl. Im sure that buck tooth fool is there reading and waiting to play his supporting promoting role. lol

With half of all marriages ending in divorce these days, it's a coin toss for everyone. I feel for them though. They did (publicly) seem quite in love.

Hmm....did she bust up

Hmm....did she bust up another marriage? I hope there's no truth to this because 1) it's wrong and 2) he's a kid: Jennifer Lopez and William Levy Rumors Are Swirling After Divorce Announcement By Adrian Carrasquillo Published July 16, 2011 | Fox News Latino Was she into him all along? We may soon find out just how much Jennifer Lopez swooned for William Levy during their steamy video for her hit single "I'm into You" now that the Puerto Rican dynamo announced her divorce from Marc Anthony. Lopez and Anthony released a statement Friday evening (perfectly timed to minimize how much attention the news received) where they dropped the bombshell that they were calling it quits after seven years. “This was a very difficult decision,” the statement said. “It is a painful time for all involved. And we appreciate the respect of our privacy at this time.” The news may have come as a surprise for fans who saw Anthony and Lopez put on an electric performance towards the end of American Idol but the sultry songtress has also shared a volcanic video shoot with telenovela heartthrob, Levy. Lopez and Levy share intimate beach-side embraces as she strokes his shoulders and his chest in the video which was shot in Mexico and while there has been no official word linking the two stars, both have left their long-time spouses since the video aired. Levy also separated from his wife, Mexican actress Elizabeth Gutiérrez, who took on the rumors of his alleged infidelities in the press release she sent out about the separation. "I was always firmly by William's side, despite the persistent rumors...I had no reason to doubt the strength of our union," her statement read in Spanish. "I confess that this decision hasn't been easy but I owe respect to myself as a person, woman and mother," she wrote. Lopez and Anthony were married seven years and have 3-year-old twins. They were to start work on a singing competition reality show billed as American Idol in Latin America. No word on the status of the upcoming show. And only time will tell if Lopez is into anything more than a video shoot with the Cuban bachelor now that she's on the market as well.
