Jennifer Lopez: 'Live It Up' Singer Tells Cosmopolitan that Casper Smart 'Great Partner'

Jennifer Lopez has opened up about the state of her love life in the October issue of Cosmopolitan.

The 44-year-old Live It Up singer opened up about her romance with dancer Casper Smart. She and the back up dancer began their relationship in the months after she separated from her husband of seven years Marc Anthony in 2011. Lopez felt that the 26-year-old was an ideal partner for her.

"For me, it's about having a great partner to walk this life with. I have my own high standards for what I want in a partner and how I want to be treated. I bring a lot to the table," Lopez said. "I'm not talking about material things but what I have to offer as a person -- love and loyalty and all the things that make a good relationship."

Lopez also said that she needed her undivided attention of a partner. She did not like to be ignored. It is a point she has made clear to her boyfriend of nearly two years.

"It's funny, early on with Beau [Casper], I remember telling him how I have a real button on being ignored," she said. "And he was like, 'Listen, if somebody ignores you, then forget them. They don't deserve to have your attention.' But it's funny. Sometimes when we don't get it, we try to get it in a negative way, you know?"
