Breakup, schmeakup!
Just four days after announcing the end of her 7-year marriage to Marc Anthony, Jennifer Lopez proved she's still a superstar -- and a professional -- during a work trip to the Republic of Crimea in Ukraine on Tuesday.

Lopez, 41, was paid a reported $1 million to sing at the lavish wedding of the son of Azam Aslamov, a Uzbek oil tycooon. Arriving early Tuesday morning with a large entourage of dancers, backup singers and make-up artists, the American Idol judge checked into the $4,100-a-night penthouse suite of the hotel Ville Elena.
After spending much of the day inside, Lopez and her crew emerged to leave for the bash and was "very pleasant" to the staff, manager Yekaterina Komarova said. "[She] greeted everyone, smiled alot," thanking the staff and signing the guest book -- and even signed autographs and took photos with fans.

Held at a recreational complex on the Black Sea coast, the lavish wedding itself is reported to have cost up to $15 million -- with 500 guests, some of the arriving via helicopter; super-tight security and 100 waiters presiding over the feast.
During her performance, an ebullient Lopez wowed the crowd.

"Are you happy?" she exclaimed onstage. "I am happy, because I am here with you today!"
Indeed, although one pal says Lopez is "devastated" and "beside herself" that she and Anthony, 42, have called it quits, "she is looking forward to the future," another confidante says in the new Us Weekly, out now.

7Great!
3 times loser needs to stop bothering Ben Affleck with her messy personal problems. Ben dumped you JLO remember that so leave him alone.
This is the problem today, it's all about what makes me happy not what makes we, as a family happy. If you can't handle this, then don't get married. If you're married, you're supposed to compromise and come to a mutual decision and not be all about me.
she too dey divorce......it all abt the benjamin i think so
pls she aint that innocent look how many time she's been divorced.
she doesnt seem that upset over the divorce at all. its all about the money
She should be happy, she's gotten rid of the creep-o-dude with Napoleon complex, so what she's 3-0 for the whole marriage thing, maybe she finally learned her lesson...
