Since I miss Ellen DeGeneres daily (why can’t I just set up my DVR?) I missed Jennifer Lopez on her show yesterday.

I like Ellen and really have always been a fan of Jennifer Lopez.  Last year when Bubba and I went to American Idol Bubba actually got to get his picture with her and meet her.  He said she was 900 times prettier in person (is that possible?) and shorter and skinnier than anyone would assume.

When he was stalking Jennifer Lopez I was stalking Steven Tyler.  In fact, I taught him how to whistle really loud.  He was impressed I was whistling so loudly at him, he turned and asked me to do it again and show him how. Watch the video here.

He looks pretty good for a man in his 60′s.  No?

Well, Jennifer said she isn’t sure about returning to Idol next season.  The 42 year old Momma of 4 year old twins Max and Emme said the kids are getting older and judging on Idol really is tieing her down from doing other things.  Read all about it here.

Wonder what other things she means?  Marrying her 25 year old boyfriend Casper Smart?   Doing more music?  She is touring with Enrique Iglesias and that will take time, but it isn’t during Idol taping or live shows.  Or does she want to do more movies?  Read here about the new movie she is in.

Idol is visiting home towns tonight with the remaining three contestants on FOX at 8pm.
