The couple wed in June 2004. 'When we got married, I was like, `I've been working for I don't know how many years at (a high) level of intensity and exposure,' Lopez says. 'I'm going to get back to what originally drew me to expressing myself as a creative person.' The 38-year-old singer-actress was previously married to choreographer Cris Judd and waiter Ojani Noa. Anthony, 37, was married to former Miss Universe Dayanara Torres. Lopez recently released her first all-Spanish album, 'Como Ama una Mujer (How a Woman Loves),' which was mainly produced by Anthony. The album 'is an opportunity for me to show my emotions, vulnerability and passion,' she tells the magazine. 'I don't get to do that as much in English.' Lopez will perform 'Que Hiciste (What Did You Do),' the first single from 'Como Ama,' when she appears April 11 on News Corp.'s Fox network talent competition, 'American Idol.'

04/04/2007 - nzherald
The singer has returned to her Puerto Rican roots with a new album of Spanish love songs and says her diva demands are in the past. 'I'm not J.Lo any more,' Jennifer told Britain's The Guardian newspaper. 'That's all gone with all the ridiculous stories about tantrums and Egyptian sheets. That's all my past. 'I'm Jennifer Lopez. I think, as a woman, I've finally grown more sure of who I am. It does seem ironic that it has taken me more than a decade to basically get back to who I am. 'I am incredibly proud of my culture and I think I am a woman who is totally defined by my culture. My temperament, my body shape, the way I am is all very much Puerto Rican.' The 37-year-old singer-and-actress says that while recording her new album - Como Ama Una Mujer (How a Woman Loves) – she was advised by her husband of two years, Marc Anthony, to concentrate on pouring out her emotions. 'This is the album I'm proudest of,' she said. 'In fact, this is the only album I've ever recorded that I listen to in my car.'
Jennifer Lopez’s First All Spanish Album
03/29/2007 - thehimalayantimes
The album, Como Ama Una Mujer, which means How a Woman Loves, is co-produced by Lopez's husband, Marc Anthony, the Los Angeles Times reported. Lopez was talked out of singing in Spanish by former Sony executive Tommy Mottola when her career was just starting, but now she said she is happy to be able to return and do an album in her chosen language. I thought that my career was going to be in Spanish music, honestly, Lopez said. My life took a different turn, which was great for me. But my heart was always kind of on the Spanish side. Lopez, like many other Latinos born in the U.S., grew up mostly speaking English. She did not learn Spanish until she became an adult. I know it's not maybe what people would expect from me, she said. But this is a beautiful opportunity for me to show a side of myself that is such a big part of who I am.

Both Hollywood stars attended the extravagant ceremony in Italy last Saturday (18.11.06), but made every effort to stay away from each other all night to avoid talking about the ‘Dallas’ movie which J.Lo pulled out of and Travolta is starring in.

It was reported at the time that Lopez hated the script and wasn’t happy that Travolta had been handed the role of her on-screen husband.
