Casper Smart isn't going to let his 18-year age difference with Jennifer Lopez sour their relationship.
In a series of tweets posted Wednesday, the 24-year-old dancer defended their May-December romance, arguing that "age, status and opinions of others are irrelevant. Our hearts are endless and our souls infinite."

"Our ages are mere reminders of the hours logged on this earth and the precious time remaining," Casper explained. "We should all honor our time here by indulging our passion and dreams. So, close your ears and open your hearts; Love and be happy!"

Lopez, 42, re-tweeted her much younger beau, but chose not to add any additional commentary. Still, an insider recently told Us Weekly Smart is exactly what Lopez needed following her messy split with Marc Anthony, 43.

12If you people hate her so much, why are you even commenting. Just do us all a favor and ignore the article!
Just another man to chew and spit out. She's a maneater. She's also proof that you dont need talent just very good luck to make it in the business.
I have never been a fan of hers, and this guy make her look ridiculous. Isn't he a criminal? Mark Anthony won this round with his hot new young girlfriend. She is waayyy more beautiful than J.Ho. Mark also can really sing, unlike this no-talent skank.
