Even by Jennifer Lopez's extravagant standards, this takes some beating...
The actress apparently insists on dressing her five-month-old twins in new designer gear every day.

She sounds incredibly stupid. But, this keeps the wheels of commerce running! I wish I could think of a product she didn’t think she could do without!

Plus, she has a big a$$.
Wow.
Idiotic, but she has the money for it.
Hopefully she donates the once-used designer clothes to charity.
People wonder why society fails.
Because of people like Jennifer Lopez.
She wants to advise Obama on Latino affairs.
Puerto Rico Ping! Please Freepmail me if you want on or off the list.
Well, he managed his money poorly -- but perhaps not as poorly as J-Lo seems to be doing. I wonder what kind of trouble she will be in, 30 years from now?
hollyweirds bimbos with too much money.
Did anyone see the People photo spread w/JLo, Skeletor, err I mean Mark Anthony, and the babies? It was the funniest, weirdest, most over the top series of photos. Ever.
Mom, dad and the babies...in Prada. Mom, adoringly looking at her newborns, wearing an evening gown (Versace?) and six-fugure Tiffany earrings. Dad pushing a baby pram (worth more than most US three bedroom ranch homes) with his tie suspended in air to look like he was jogging (whilst pushing the buggy, wearing a suit). It was hysterical...
This reminds me of the Married With Children episode where Peggy didn’t understand what the washing machine was for so she just kept buying new clothes instead of washing her old ones.
I saw it, and what was ironic was that after the spread which featured her barefooted, pink sweatered, skinny, girly looking husband sitting in the most opulent living room you ever saw bottle feeding one the twins, a few pages later was an article on Marines, and the pic was of two of the studliest, manliest, fatigues-wearing guys you ever saw.
The stark difference between the men was amazing.
Who had the semi-salacious ping list?!
I saw it. They wanted to rival the photos of Mrs. Trump and her baby in his gold pram, mommy dressed in 5” heels and designer clothes. I thought Mr. Lopez look positvely worn out. He must have been on the night shift.
A fool and her money are soon parted.
She has so many businesses that I doubt she’ll ever want for anything. Imagine she’s gearing up for the JLo baby/children’s line as we speak.

For now, their lifestyle of multiple homes, large staffs, travel, etc...will soon catch up with their severely diminished earnings.
Yep, that can sure happen.
I guess she picked that up from her old boyfriend Sean “Puffy”, “P. Diddy”, “Puff Daddy”, “Diddy”, “D Piffy” Combs who it was rumored threw out every piece of multi thousand dollar clothing he wore once. No laundry for Mr. Combs.
Well, at least he married her and taking responsibility in his kids’ life. Even if he is kind of a wimp, that’s still manlier than an unfortunate number of men in our society. If he stays in the marriage and is a father to those children all their life, he gets a pass from me about the girly shirts. :-)
They are frivolous people to spend so much money on trivial things they don’t need, but in the end, they earned their money and they can spend it how they want to.
LOL! I’d say I wish I leaved near her secondhand store, except that we don’t dress our kids in goofy clothes like that, anyway.

Astounding. Too much trouble to have an employee take their clothes to The Salvation Army?
They can spend their money how they like, but it’s really a pathetic commentary on their values. I’m sure she’s a flaming liberal who advocates more taxes from “the rich” to help “the poor,” while she lives her life like this. Typical limousine liberal. Sigh.

Except that Lopez's extravagence is probably benefitting Chinese peasants to the tune of forty cents a day...
Slow news day indeed......................
“People wonder why society fails”
Do you realize how much this act contributes to society? She buys new clothes everyday. Thats money going in to the economy. Thats people with jobs making clothes and people with jobs selling clothes and not-so fortunate people who get all the hand-me-down clothes.
I would like to own a boutique or some such place and be in close proximity to a few of these people.
That is what I was going to say. So what. As long as she comes about the clothes honestly all the more power to her.
Exactly. I think it’s the dumbest darn thing, but whatever. She makes a lot of money, she might as well spend it. As I said, I would love to find something she wanted!
LOL you and I think alike!
Much like hollywood portrays a false image of model thin perfect women the way they should look, we don’t necesarily like that.
The same with the way they portray men as wimpy smellygood manicured female men. I know most women don’t like that. Though there are some women that try to create a male version of themselves, most prefer men.
Then again (and PLEASE, this is not meant to offend), I have found PR and Nuyorican women to have other positive qualities that may offset any superficial averageness they may possess.
She goes shopping for a baby daddy, and now spoils her "pride and joy" rotten. These kids will be as fudged up as Bing Crosby's when they become of age.
She needs LOTS of makeup to look as good as she does in that photo.
He always looks like that. The guy needs some iron pills and 20 minutes a day in the sun.

(Still just ole Jenny from the block, my a$$!!!)
When singers starting tagged as a diva is when they come out with the “I’m Just Like You!!!” song.
Faith Hill did it, too, with “Mississippi Girl.”
I’ll never forget her interview with Barbara Walters when she was engaged to Ben Affleck. “We’re just like normal people...”
Yes, and Faith owns an island. But hey, just a simple Mississippi girl.
Unutterably dumb song, not that I liked Faith Hill before that.
Faith Hill Island sounds like the stuff of nightmares.
ITA. The song is hysterical to me. “I’m known all around the world because I’m a singer and a star, but I’m just like you in every other way!” Uh, yeah. OK.
The people getting those clothes are not not-so-fortunate. Most of the clothes end up on eBay, bought at 25-50% of retail by people who could probably afford to buy them at the mall, if they didn't already have three closets full of clothes. Ebay sellers love people like J-Lo.
Not to mention Faith Hill on the radio ...
