J-Lo Still Refusing To Confirm Pregnancy As Second Newborn Crowns
Exciting news for actress/singer/fragrance magnate Jennifer Lopez and singer/actor/Caesar-supporter Marc Anthony, for the two are the proud parents of bouncing baby twins—one J and one Lo—born shortly after midnight in a New York-area hospital. Having dropped a rumored $6 million for the privilege, we now acquiesce with a bow and a flourish to People's J-Lo! Twins! Birth! Exclusive!:
The babies were born early Friday in Long Island, N.Y. The girl was born at 12:12 a.m. and weighed 5 lbs. 7 oz., and the boy followed at 12:23 a.m., weighing 6 lbs.
"Jennifer and Marc are delighted, thrilled and over the moon," Lopez's manager Simon Fields tells PEOPLE exclusively.
So ironclad is their 7-figure "PEOPLE exclusive" that before Lopez's bundles of joy could even be cleaned, they were snatched out of the hands of an attending nurse and plopped into tiny, adjacent makeup chairs in the makeshift photo studio set up down the hospital corridor. Meanwhile, a team of stylists, art directors, photographers, and assistants fussed over wardrobe (the Dolce & Gabbana patent leather swaddling cloths came off looking way shinier than anticipated) and light levels, until a consensus was finally reached. Anticipation was high as the protective backing was peeled off a Polaroid test, and the stunning results were greeted with yelps of approval and a round of high-fives, as the entire creative team realized they "got the shot" of the screaming newborns.
