Jennifer Lopez Dissed Michael Phelps

Aug 20, 2008 Author: YourCelebrityStuff | Filed under: Jennifer Lopez

Jennifer Lopez, new mom to twins, is training for the Nautica Malibu Triathlon, which is a pretty big feat. Another big feat is that Michael Phelps, a guy from Baltimore has won eight Olympic gold medals and he’s only 23. However, JLo doesn’t think that’s anything to talk about!

Michael Phelps has won the hearts of Americans after breaking records at the 2008 Beijing Olympics and is the Most Outstanding Olympian of All-Time but apparently he’s not done much to impress J-Lo.

According to an MSNBC insider, the actress and singer, was overheard saying, about Phelps’ accomplishments, “So what? Big deal.” And she couldn’t understand why everyone is so in awe of “the swimmer” when she’s a new mom of 6-month-old twins, and training for a triathlon.

Most mothers of 6-month-old-twins don’t have THAT much time to train for a triathlon, even if it is for charity. J-Lo is competing to raise money for Children’s Hospital of LA.

The “spy” says that J-Lo, “couldn’t understand why everyone is talking about “that swimmer.” She couldn’t come up with (eight-time gold-medal winner Michael) Phelps’ name, and then she yammered on about how she was the one training for a triathlon just six months after giving birth, and how that was the big story right now, not ‘the swimmer.’”

Jealous much? Let’s hope the nanny teaches the twins some manners, since J-Lo doesn’t have any.

Here are some more pictures of Jennifer Lopez, the great athlete. I wonder if Phelps’ training included standing around making faces. It appears to be a staple of J-Lo’s rigorous routine.
