J.Lo & Marc Anthony Playing Nice (Sort Of) On Ellen Appearance
Feb. 10 2012, Published 12:00 p.m. ET
Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony smiled through a slightly awkward interview scheduled to air next Monday’s on the Ellen DeGeneres Show, on which they appeared to promote their new show Q’ Viva along with the show’s director, Jamie King.
The diplomatic Ellen told the former couple, “The dynamic between the two of you is so much fun to watch. You know I love you both individually. And, I just love watching you on camera. Regardless of anything, but the dynamic between you two is fantastic to watch.”
“We laugh a lot,” J.Lo said, to which King interjected, “Not always. I find myself in the middle refereeing sometimes. It’s fantastic.”
