Jennifer Lopez: ready for wedding, baby with Casper Smart?

Jennifer Lopez has already promoted Casper Smart from dancer to choreographer, but is she ready to promote him from boyfriend to baby daddy?

That’s what folks are speculating, as Lopez is piping up about her openness to having more kids while promoting her baby-centric comedy “What to Expect When You’re Expecting.”

“It would be a blessing,” Lopez told People magazine about the notion of procreating after twins Max and Emme, whom she shares with ex Marc Anthony.

“Every day ... they just bring so much joy and happiness to your life, [and] they just bring you right back down to Earth.”

Lopez and Smart started heating up last fall after her split from Anthony. Those were simpler days of romantic getaways and discreet hangouts. Recently Smart has been a fixture at her side, even spending quality time with her little ones.

Smart’s also moving up in the world, as the aforementioned promotion went down last week in step with Lopez’s world tour announcement. Casper has been named choreographer for the effort, elevated from the dance ensemble.

This was a strategic move on Lopez’s part in order to make Smart “more respectable and more of an equal,” says the Chicago Sun-Times, citing a source close to the singer. The insider goes on to confirm Lopez’s hope for a bigger family, and even the notion of making her and Casper official.

If the source checks out, then we’ll know what to expect: another J. Lo wedding. And we at the Ministry love a wedding. Lopez obviously does too.
