Jennifer Lopez doesn’t leave any single chance to haters. In her age, she looks and works even better, than in her younger days. The singer and actress tried her hand as an American Idol judge, played the main role in the crime series “Shades of Blue” and started her own show in Las Vegas.

He made his first MLB appearance at the age of 18. Two years later he has already signed his first deal and started to play as a shortstop for Seattle Mariners.

In 1996 his batting average reached 0.358, the highest rate for right-handed players since the times of Joe DiMaggio. In 2000 his talent and charisma made him one of the best players in the world. He signed a $252 million deal with “Texas Rangers”. For his skillful play, the athlete got his first MVP award. In 2004 New York Yankees traded him.

Alex Rodríguez retired from baseball in early 2017. Till now he remains one of the brightest players in baseball history.

Date of birth: June 11, 1974

Nowadays Ojani Noa’s name is mentioned only in connection with his ex-wife Jennifer Lopez. But when they met for the first time in the middle 1990s he was an aspiring young actor and model.

Their love story turned out to be too short. In a couple of months, Jen filed for divorce, which was finalized on January 1, 1998.

According to Noa’s interview, he put his career on pause to help Lopez develop her career as a performer. He served as her personal bodyguard and trainer. After their divorce, JLo’s mom called him “a gold digger”, which really hurt the man.

Even after their divorce, Jen cared about Ojani. She appointed him as the manager of her Pasadena restaurant. But they had a conflict again in the late 2000s when he decided to sell tapes, which J-Lo featured. Then Lopez hired lawyers and judged Noa. Thus, his tapes have never been published, although the man insists, “they were not pornographic”.

In addition to his battles with Jennifer, Noa is busy with his career as a record producer and actor. Among his most popular screen works there are films “Rappin-n-Rhyming”, “Eye See Me” and some others.
