Jennifer Lopez amused by daughter's Spanish

21st June 2011

(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Jennifer Lopez has revealed her daughter speaks fake Spanish and is desperate to grow up.

The superstar has three-year-old twins Max and Emme with her musician husband Marc Anthony. Jennifer is a hands-on mother and never travels without her kids, who love to visit new countries. The couple are keen for the twins to be bilingual so they speak both English and Spanish to them. While Emme has grasped many English phrases, she isn't quite as advanced in Spanish.

"My daughter walks around saying, I am going to be four, I am going to be four.' They want to grow up so fast and I am like, Trust me, slow down!'" Jennifer laughed in an interview with British television show Lorraine. "Yes, we speak to them in both Spanish and English. They don't know all the Spanish words, so they will talk in a way that sounds like Spanish, which is very funny. My daughter will say something and I will be like, Is that your Spanish?!'"

Jennifer also insisted she would support her children if they decided to follow in the footsteps of their famous parents and pursue a career in entertainment. The singer-and-actress claims it would be difficult to prevent her kids wanting to be stars if they set their heart on it.

"It is hard, you know. But here is what I know about this business and here's what I know about doing what I do, there's no way if they really wanted to do it that I could stop them. So I would support them," the 41-year-old star explained. "It is creative [at home], we don't have a lot of music all the time, you know, because we work so much with music so that is like the office. So when we are at home it is more of a quiet environment, believe it or not." (C) Cover Media
