Jennifer Lopez Says Kids Helped Her Acting

Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony sat down with Extra to talk about their kids and their recent move to Miami. Jennifer shared that she's gotten "infinitely" better at acting since her twins, Max and Emme, were born.
"I've played a mom, and I've had kids in movies before, but now you understand it in a different way, The trick to acting is actually not to act. That's the trick -- now I don't have to act. Now I can just be, and it makes it better."
She thinks it's also helped her become a better singer and really changed her in a lot of ways!
You're just a different person after you have children and it just affects the way you think and the way you feel and the way you view things," she says.
Marc talked about morning time in their new home being his favorite time with the babies. The couple just purchased a condo in Miami.
"When they wake up in the morning, and they just sit there, it's just the yummiest moment of my day,"
I always forget that Marc also has 3 other kids from two previous relationships. He has 2 sons (ages 8 & 6) with his ex-wife, Daynara, and a daughter (15) from another relationship.
I'm really looking forward to Jennifer being back on the big screen with her movie The Back-Up Plan. It's set to hit the theaters in March!

I agree with her about the ways kids change you... notsomuch that having kids would help you be a better actor (as in, you could "effortlessly" act like a mother). If you're an actor you should be able to pull off anything.
She looks gorgeous here. I hate to say it, but I'm sort of starting to like her a little bit!

I used to really not like her. Now, I kinda do. I just think she always looks so glamourous and beautiful.

The yummiest moment of her day? I hate when people apply adjectives to sentences where they don't quite work!!! "Yummy" does not work here! The yummiest moment of my day is meal time. :)

its sweet that shes found happiness with her two children, but if it took her to have children in order for her to have become a better actor, then maybe she shouldnt have chosen this profession. professional actors are able to conjure up that 'feeling' to deliver, regardless of whether they give birth to a child or not.
She looks gorgeous.

If the kids helped her acting I'd say she needs to have a few more!
