Singing star Marc Anthony is so hands-on with his and Jennifer Lopez's new baby twins that the star and their staff have nicknamed him the "Burp Whisperer." The singing star is crazy with newborns Max and Emme and has been volunteering to change their diapers and tend to the babies day and night. He says, "I'm so excited. I'm so hands-on with them that the household developed a nickname for me. They call me the Burp Whisperer." Anthony, meanwhile, praises his superstar wife, claiming having twins was inevitable, because everything she touches turns to gold.He adds, "I told Jennifer, nothing you do is small. Everything you do it on such large scale. The first time you give birth, you give birth to twins."
Marc Anthony is worried he'll miss the delivery of his baby if it's not born in the next week.The singer has a concert scheduled in Puerto Rico on February 8, and that might keep him away from the Long Island, New York hospital where Jennifer Lopez is to give birth. In a interview with Puerto Rican newspaper El Nuevo Dia, Anthony says he hopes his wife won't go into labor while he's working. He says, "I've been with her 24 hours a day, and I'm going to be away from her for just a few hours, so she can't go into labor during that time. "I mean, I'm praying that doesn't happen." The 39-year-old star insists the show will go on but he'll fly to Puerto Rico for his show, then immediately fly back to New York.

Peta won't give up on Jennifer Lopez
Jennifer Lopez has reportedly hired extra security after animal rights extremists threatened to "slaughter" her.The fur-wearing singer-and-actress - who is regularly criticised by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) - has now reportedly been sent menacing letters.The letters are said to threaten "to kill her in public, just like the slaughtered animals whose fur she wears."Lopez's husband musician Marc Anthony is said to be so concerned for her safety, he has hired additional security for her. A source told the New York Daily News newspaper: "Marc Anthony has hired two off-duty police officers, in addition to her usual security team, to watch over Lopez whenever she makes public appearances."Lopez's representative has denied the star has increased her security. She said: "This is untrue. She has had the same security team she has always had."PETA has slammed Lopez for hiring extra protection, insisting she is "promoting violence" by wearing fur. A representative for PETA said: "All violence is wrong. But J.Lo needs to stop the real violence she promotes and subsidises rather than give herself extra protection she doesn't need."
Jennifer Lynn Lopez, one of the richest Hispanic's in Hollywood according to Forbes magazine, and her husband Marc Anthony are suing the National Enquirer seeking "substantial damages" for a story which alleged the couple were linked to a drug scandal.They hired a Belfast-based lawyer Paul Tweed, a special lible lawyer, who told Reuters he had filed a lawsuit with the Belfast High Court on Tuesday, announcing they "will now make similar applications in Dublin, London and other jurisdictions." Paul Tweed said the Enquirer story was "totally unfounded.""It's virtually impossible to sue for libel in the United States because of First Amendment protections," Tweed explained to the Reuters news agency. "But these publications are now appearing in Ireland, the UK and France, and on the internet, and they're now subject to the libel laws of these jurisdictions." The article at question was published last month under the headline: "Jennifer and Marc Caught Up In Heroin Scandal". The March 12 article also reprinted a 2004 picture of Anthony standing beside photographer Michael Star, who is facing charges of heroin possession and child pornography in the U.S. Tweed told AP that actress-singer Lopez, 38, and singer Anthony, 37, were seeking "a six-figure settlement" from the Enquirer, based in Boca Raton, Fla., and its parent company, American Media Inc. A spokesman for AMI, Richie Valvo, said the company had no comment. "It would be our policy to not comment on it at this time, Valvo said. Lopez and Anthony married in a quiet home wedding on June 5, 2004, where guests had reportedly been invited to an "afternoon party" at Lopez's house and were not aware that they were actually going to the couple's wedding.

In a second you'll see why."She was joined on stage by Marc, 38, and they performed a romantic duet during which he pulled her into an embrace and they gazed into each other's eyes.When the song ended Jennifer said: "How you like them apples? That's my baby, for better or for worse!"After the concert the couple partied in the VIP area, drinking champagne and feasting on giant puffs of pink cotton candy, marbled "monkey bar" brownies, chocolate-dipped donuts and milk shakes in shot glasses.
