Jennifer Lopez New Boyfriend: Dating 'Younger Men' is 'No Big Deal,' Says Singer

Hollywood superstar and renowned performer Jennifer Lopez dates younger men and thinks that it should not be that big of a deal, E! Online reported.

According to the report, the Hollywood actress is tired of being described as a "cougar."

The singer-actress, who is now 45 years old but looks way younger, do not get why her relationships with younger men seem to be of high interest to the public.

"We can date younger guys. It's no big deal," she bravely comments adding that clichés about women should not be talked about anymore, much less reported by the media.

As the cover girl of Self Magazine's very first issue in 2015, Lopez proudly admitted to being a "love addict" and emphasized that age should not be a great issue since she finds "comfort" in loving.

Lopez believes that women her age should not be subjected to such criticisms.

"We're in the other position now. We are desirable older, we can date younger guys and it's not this big taboo. Men have been doing this for years, and it's no big deal," E! Online quoted her saying.

Lopez, whose exes include record producer Marc Anthony and 27-year-old backup dancer Casper Smart, was married three times but is currently single.

She, however, proves herself as a "superwoman" after she was described by the lifestyle magazine to have already "owned" the upcoming year in all her successes.

Currently a resident judge in the long-running talent show "The American Idol," Lopez would also pose as a partner for the health and fitness company BodyLab in creating a new fitness program for modern women, says Self Magazine.

Among her upcoming ventures also include the psychological thriller movie "The Boy Next Door" where she would portray the role of Claire Peterson, a teacher with a troubled marriage who was seduced to have a fling with a 19-year-old heartthrob, portrayed by film newbie Ryan Guzman.

When asked why she accepted the role, she admitted that she can relate to the character.

"I've been through divorce. I've been cheated on, just like every other girl in the world. So you sympathize, you understand the emotions. And I've dated a younger guy once in my life, so I could definitely understand that part, too-the attraction," she said noting that the intensity of the pain felt through heartbreak may have one left with no choice but "to anesthetize" in different ways.
