Age is clearly just a number for Jennifer Lopez as she recently showed off her amazing body in a sexy bikini while in Fortaleza, Brazil with her boyfriend Casper Smart on July 5.
The smoking 42-year-old singer lounged with her love by the pool in a tiny yellow number while relaxing before the kick-off of her international tour with Enrique Iglesias.

When we discussed Jennifer Lopez?s announcement on Friday, I said that I was disappointed in her decision to quit American Idol. I read it as Jennifer quitting a show that had given her career a second act, and that she probably left after a squabble about money (and/or scheduling). But! Some of you theorized that with Jennifer AND Steven Tyler?s hasty exits, that they had been pushed out rather than deciding to leave of their own volition. The Wrap and Radar agrees with that theory ? their sources claim that Jennifer asked for a $2 million bump in salary, and Idol was all “Eh. Not so much.”
Jennifer Lopez says it was her choice to leave “American Idol” — but the singer was actually dumped by Fox when she asked for a $2 million raise in salary to $17 million, a person familiar with the negotiations told TheWrap.
Fox also opted not to pick up Steven Tyler’s option, the person said. Tyler announced his departure Thursday, saying he had decided to devote his energies to his first love, Aerosmith. Lopez said she wanted to focus on other aspects of her career and her children.
The exits — and the possible departure of Randy Jackson, widely speculated to be considering an exit after judging on all 11 seasons of the former No. 1 show — come as it undergoes another dramatic overhaul, just two seasons after the show was retooled by introducing Tyler and Lopez.
The insider said top Fox executives Peter Rice and Kevin Reilly want to revamp the show, and that Rice has told colleagues he wants an “Idol 2.0,” of which host Ryan Seacrest would be the only essential ingredient.
A Fox spokeswoman declined to comment.
The insider said J. Lo’s fee went from $12 million in her first season to $15 million in her second. When she asked for another $2 million, the network surprised her by not making a counteroffer.
“Idol” lost its top spot in the ratings to NBC’s “Sunday Night Football” last season after eight years of dominance. In their two seasons, Tyler and Lopez helped prop up the show. But they could not return it to its former dominance as the sing-off market became glutted with competition, including NBC’s “The Voice” and Fox’s “X Factor” from ex-”Idol” judge Simon Cowell.
That glut — which also includes ABC’s “Duets” — has created a mini gold rush for singers.
Many music stars are being considered to replace Lopez and Tyler, including Mariah Carey — whom Cowell has long sought for “X Factor” — Kanye West, Mary J. Blige and Lenny Kravitz.
If Jackson stays with “Idol,” he has an inside track with Carey that his former “Idol” colleague lacked: Jackson is Carey’s manager.
[From The Wrap]
So it was about money AND it was about being dumped. Allegedly. I could see it playing out like this ? Jennifer wasn?t sure if she wanted to do another season but she wanted to see how much they would give her, and when they didn?t dump at the chance to pay her $17 million, she saw the writing on the wall and it became a ?mutual? decision. And poor Steven Tyler!
As for the names being mentioned as possible replacements? well, you know Mariah would be a glorious trainwreck and people would simply tune in to see THE MARIAH SHOW, also known as American Idol WITH Mariah Carey. Mary J. Blige has the benefit of being actually qualified to mentor young talent and give good criticism, so obviously she?s probably not really in the running. Lenny Kravitz would be interesting ? have you ever seen him in a television interview? He?s actually a really good sport, and he doesn?t mind making fun of himself. He would be interesting. And Kanye? well, if Mariah is on board, then I really hope and pray that Kanye signs on too. Because that would be MAGIC!! Kanye + Mariah = MUST SEE TV.
Here are some photos of Jennifer performing in Montreal over the weekend:

They?re always up for a good time, and last month Jennifer Lopez and Casper Smart elected to spend some of their downtime in Fortaleza, Brazil.
The ?On the Floor? songstress and her much younger dancer boyfriend were joined by J. Lo?s kids Max and Emme as they splashed in the sea and relaxed on the beach.
Lopez and Smart also invited some family members to join in the fun during their rare time off from their current world tour.
Jennifer performed for thousands in Recife the following day before flying back to the USA to tend to her Stateside to-do list.

I was kind of excited to see these pictures of Jennifer Lopez hanging out on the beach in her bikini with her family, I don’t think I’ve ever seen shots of her kids. I’m just kidding, I don’t give a crap about her kids, but I was looking forward to seeing that big ass in

Here are some new photos of Jennifer Lopez, Casper Smart, her bodyguards and her children playing and having fun at a Rio de Janeiro beach. J.Lo and Casper (and the kids) have been in South America for more than a week now, all part of her tour. In her absence from America, stories have been circulating about Casper and his rumored homosexuality. The gay rumors seem to only be coming from one dude, so… I mean, I have my doubts. I think Casper is a total sketchball, a user, a famewhore and a douche, but I’ll buy that he’s a HETERO sketchball, user and douche.
Anyway, these photos are kind of cute. PCN Photos notes that Jennifer, Casper and the kids were “burying? one of Jennifer?s bodyguards in the sand, and you can see in some of the photos that they seem to be having a grand time. Of course, it probably helps that Jennifer seemed aware that there was a camera on her. I?ve never really been sympathetic towards Marc Anthony, but I do feel for the guy considering he has to see his children being tended to by his estranged wife?s young boy-toy. Casper seems quite content to play ?daddy? to Max and Emme.
By the way, Jennifer was robbed within hours of touching down in Rio. Keep it classy, Rio.

Miss Lopez performed her new hits along with old favorites including ?Love Don?t Cost a Thing.?

Showing love to her Brazilian fans, Jennifer Lopez was spotted greeting fans and showing off her love for the country before her concert in Sao Paulo on Friday (June 23).
The Latin beauty looked flawless in a flowing white skirt and black leather jacket as she was seen smiling and taking photos as well as holding up the country's flag. The 42-year-old also has something to smile about as she received a Golden award during her trip for her incredible record sales in Brazil.
After touching down, JLo took to her Twitter page writing, "Just arrived in beautiful Sao Paulo. What's up with the traffic? @kelly_clarkson @parishilton are ready to party tomorrow #PopMusicFestival." Besides taking part in the Pop Music Festival, Lopez was also there as part of her Dance Again tour.
Although the "On The Floor" songstress and her team safely made it to Sao Paulo, that wasn't the case on their previous stop to Argentina. Just days before, Miss Lopez made a stop at a clinic in Argentina due to lower back pain after part of her production crew was robbed.
In a statement to FOX News Latino from the Latina star's team explained that the stolen property "were items that belong to production personnel" including a computer, camera and personal documentation for a crew member.

Causing quite the frenzy upon their arrival, Jennifer Lopez and Casper Smart were spotted at the airport in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil with the singer?s children Emma and Max on Friday (June 22).
The group was attending a music festival in the Brazilian town and the 42-year-old?s fans went wild as they saw her enter the terminal. Miss Lopez took to Twitter after her landing sharing, ?Just arrived in beautiful Sao Paulo. What's up with the traffic? @kelly_clarkson @parishilton are ready to party tomorrow #PopMusicFestival?
Unfortunately, some nasty rumors are spreading about the ?On the Floor? singer?s boyfriend and backup singer.
A fellow Hollywood backup dancer has been tweeting gossip that Smart is a closeted homosexual sharing a silly photo with the caption, ?"Check out Ur boy? And his low key homo ways,? and ?I know what I know, Not love, a lot of business and public relations."
Sounds like someone is a bit jealous of the relationship.
Smart's rep was quick to set the gay rumors straight, telling RadarOnline.com: "Casper is not gay. These comments are born from envy and jealousy."

Normally when you see Jennifer Lopez out and about her luscious locks are either in a slicked-back up-do or smooth curls but that wasn't the case when she visited a children's hospital in Panama City, Florida Tuesday (June 12).
With tons of volume and a little bit of frizz, the "Dance Again" singer showed off her naturally curly hair while strutting around the hospital in black pumps that she paired with a monochrome snakeskin blouse and high-waist white pants.
The 42-year-old "American Idol" judge donated medical equipment to the hospital on behalf of her Lopez Family Foundation, and after giving a speech during the ceremony was spotted talking to doctors afterwards.
J Lo is expected to travel across South America, Canada and the United States after kicking off her world tour on Thursday and will cap off the lengthy tour in Europe sometime in November.
