J LO LETS HERSELF GO

Diva Jennifer Lopez has admitted to letting motherhood keep her away from the gym.
The 40-year-old actress and singer, who has 21-month twins, Max and Emme with crooner husband Marc Anthony, says she now only does what she must to keep her famous curves in shape.
“I'm not the monster I used to be in the exercise department,” she told Allure magazine.
“You get past your 20s, you've got kids... you're kind of unmotivated.
“Part of my business is being in shape and looking good. You can't lie to yourself about it.
“You want to be healthy and look good, but you want to do the least amount to maintain that.”
But she said that when she has a public appearance coming up she does harder and more frequent exercise and that she is a “big portion control person.”
She could be hitting the gym more to burn off Christmas calories because her new album, Love, is due out next month and her new film, The Back-Up Plan, is released in March.
Lopez also revealed the roots f her ambition – childhood insecurities because she did not see much of her father.
“My dad worked nights and slept during the day, so we never saw him much,” she explained.
“He was a wonderful, loving father, but eve so, I would lie in bed at night and tell myself over and over, 'I know my daddy loves me.'
“I wondered about if, because of his absence, he didn't care about me. And believe me, my dad was the best.
“But these little things happen to you when you're younger.”
