Jennifer Lopez can be seen in the image above, as an Elle cover girl [Website – Amy Grindhouse].
I must say I am surprised by this cover.
Lopez has a glazed look in her eyes and expressionless face that is a far cry for some of her earlier, personality filled covers.
Perhaps it is all the sleepless nights with the twins, perhaps an over-excitable photoshop artist taking all the character out of her face… who knows?
Lopez spoke candidly about her journey into motherhood in the issue (p.s. I totally don’t read through this drivel when I post it, I just look at the purdy pictures):
On not being able to get pregnant right away: “We knew nothing was wrong with either one of us—I had been checked, and he had kids already. I knew Something’s not ready here, in my head or in my life, and when it is, I know it’s going to happen.”
On first realizing she was pregnant: “I was sitting down doing hair and makeup and I felt a flutter. The weirdest little…flourish. My makeup artist said ‘What’s the matter?’ I didn’t say anything, but in my head, I was like, I have life inside me!”
On her pregnancy: “We came off tour and I said ‘I did the superwoman thing, I finished the tour—now I need you to take care of me. I love doing things for you; if I’m not cooking, then I’m picking out a shirt. But this is the first time in my life where I’m just going to be a little bit selfish. I don’t know if I’m going to have kids again, so I want it to be a beautiful experience. I don’t want to have any drama. I want to just be smiling every day.’”
