Jennifer Lopez's Back-up Plan for the Twins


After taking a year off to care for Emme and Max, the 18-month-old twins that she had by her husband Marc Anthony, Jennifer Lopez is back at work recording an album and has a film called "The Back-Up Plan" already completed.

She says she hates being away from the children, but has found an interesting way of keeping in touch. "I call up on the web camera so I can see them while I'm away and just look at them," says the 40-year-old actress. "Then my daughter starts crying when she sees me on screen. She holds out her arms to me and gets very upset. It breaks my heart if I'm away from them even for a short time." She adds twins can be "hard work", but she has a nanny to help out.

Also on news about Jennifer...her husband Marc Anthony has become a partial owner of the Miami Dolphins, "I'm a huge sports fan," says Anthony, 40. "These opportunities don't come around too often. It's quite an honor and a privilege to be able to sit here today saying that I'm a part-owner of an NFL team." Anthony struck a deal with Stephen Ross, the New York-based real estate entrepreneur who bought a 95-percent stake in the Dolphins franchise in January. The singer did not disclose the financial terms. "It would have probably been cheaper just to buy season tickets," he said, joking.

Anthony says he and wife Jennifer Lopez are house hunting now. "Jennifer loves Miami," he says. "So she's really, really happy about this because we're going to be spending a lot of time down there."
