Britney Spears has an idol. Which Idol?  No...not  American Idol. Brit let the world know about her admiration for the Hot Nuyorican Powerhouse by saying that she loves Jennifer Lopez for her youthful beauty. Britney, who is about to turn 30, said in an interview with Now magazine that she hopes to be as beautiful as JLo when she turns 42.

The 29-year-old claimed that she's always been a huge fan of the American Idol judge, especially because of the way she has managed to keep herself in great shape after having twins.

JLo looks more amazing than ever and Britney really admires and respects that. I think we all do, there is no going around it: JLo is definitely a stunning powerhouse!

Britney also revealed that she shares beauty tips with her mother Lynne. One of her mom's beauty secrets is making sure she gets plenty of rest and lots of water. Does JLo nap half of the day and walk around with a portable water fountain? Not really, so although these are healthy advice tips, there has to be more to the secret of the JLo Glow!

Do you think Britney will be as hot as JLo when she's in her 40's?

Beyoncé and JLo have amazingly beautiful skin. You know, celebrities always focus on looking good and having a flawless complexion, don't you? We all want celebrity-like skin! The issue here is: do you have the budget to spend all your dinero to buy creams and beauty treatments? If you don't, oatmeal has come to the rescue because I don't think JLo will be taking us with her to the spa any time soon.

When I think of oatmeal, I always imagine mouthwatering cookies made with brown sugar, oatmeal and butter, or a berry streusel crusted with sugar and oatmeal crumbs as a topping. To me, oatmeal is one of those foods that brings back memories, especially the sweet smell coming out of the kitchen during the morning on weekends.

The best part is that, it is so good for you. Besides being nutritious and full of curative properties that will help you stay fit and healthy, it can also help you stay as pretty as you are now. Even that pesky pimple may be fixed with this magical ingredient.

Why is oatmeal magical? Some of this cereal’s benefits include the absorption of dirty particles off our skin and helps calm down irritations. It also prevents dehydration and thus, helps to keep the skin moist and protected. In essence, oatmeal helps to balance pretty much every type of skin. These are just a few of all the virtues surrounding this flaky goodness.

Your local grocery store may offer oatmeal in a variety of ways: from oatmeal flour to old-fashion rolled oats. I suggest getting the rolled oats and then using your blender to break them into a finer ingredient. While I have not done a scientific study, I think that breaking it into smaller oats will provide you with maximum benefit.

Beneficial Face Mask

  • ½ cup oatmeal
  • 1 tbs honey
  • 1 egg white
Combine all ingredients and apply on moistened face. Leave for 30 minutes and remove with warm water. Apply once or twice a week.
Sunburn Treatment
  • 1 cup oatmeal
Add the oatmeal to a lukewarm bath and soak in it for 15 minutes.
Dry Skin Treatment
  • ¼ cup oatmeal
  • ¼ plain yogurt
  • 1 tbs sugar
Combine well all ingredients. Apply all over moistened face. Leave on for 30 minutes and remove with warm water.
Multi-use Oatmeal Paste
  • 1 cup oatmeal
  • water
  • 2 tsp sugar
Add the oatmeal to a food processor. Turn it on and add water little by little. You want to create a thick paste. Add Once this is done, remove and use it to treat burns, as a body scrub in the shower, to treat acne or psoriasis.
Homemade Body Wash

Mix some of your neutral body wash with a few tablespoons of oatmeal and use it as a scrub during your next shower.

I hope you like these tips using ingredients from your own kitchen!  Give a shout to MTV3!

Since Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony announced their mouth-dropping split on July 15, several rumors have spun involving secret affairs and steamy hook-ups. The latest to hit the fan involves Marc Anthony's alleged romantic involvement with model, telenovela star and aspiring singer Sandra Echeverría.

The Mexican beauty and the former Mr. Lopez met while recording a music video for Marc's track, "Recuérdame". While filming, the boricua singer discovered her talented voice and the two later recorded a duet for the soap opera, which are both titled "La Fuerza del Destino."

According to her assistant, the two hit it off and Marc continued sending her sweet messages and calling her constantly after production wrapped. This isn't the first rumor claiming Marc's infidelity. Another source took to Us Weekly and declared that Marc and J.Lo almost split two years ago after Marc allegedly had an affair with a stewardess he met in a private jet back in 2009.

As expected, Sandra Echeverría released a statement denying the hook-up rumors and declaring:

"I don't know where these rumors came from...It was incredible to be able to work with such a huge talent. We are just friends."

Are Sandra and Marc trying to pull a J.Lo and William Levy? All we know is that these rumors seem to have hit in a very opportune time. Sandra has recently dropped her first album and her latest telenovela is set to premiere on July 31st. Sounds like a friendship with benefits to us! We didn't say it had to be naughty...

Do you think there's any truth to the rumors about Sandra Echevería and Marc Anthony?

In the ongoing story of Jennifer Lopez's split from husband of seven years Marc Anthony, there are all sorts of rumors bubbling up, speculating on the cause of the dissolution of their marriage.

Terrible fights are rumored to have been increasingly frequent since the birth of the couple's twins, Emme and Max, more than three years ago.

It's also possible that the stress from the ongoing legal battle between Jenny and first husband and eternal butt-pain Ojani Noa is to blame. Some sources say that Marc's desire to control Jennifer's image caused a lot of grief between the two, citing examples of his complaints about her wardrobe and sexy photo shoots and music videos, as well as coaching her behind the scenes and on commercial breaks during "American Idol."

This latest bit of chisme that came to mind when we heard that sexy telenovela ex-galán William Levy has gone on the record saying that he has nothing to do with the Lopez-Anthony split.

After all it's Levy, often tagged as the "Cuban Brad Pitt" who played the non-speaking but very featured role of the Latin lover in Lopez's recent "Into You" video. And Lopez has a history of dating her leading men, right? Also, Levy himself recently waved adios to the beautiful and charming Elizabeth Gutierrez, the mother of his own two kids. So, you know, suspicious overlap of timing, right?

But William Levy says no, right? And although the long-standing practice of public relations rumor denial is nothing less than a part of the established social ritual at this point, we know for sure that sometimes when a celeb says a rumor is false, it's sometimes just that. Even if it comes from Will's P.R. guys. His rep tells TMZ:

"William and J.Lo are NOT an item. "The only relationship there was or is, is a professional relationship. That’s all there’s ever been.”

For sure, there are all kinds of rumors flying around that have to do with Levy and Elizabeth break up, citing a statutory rape case that is as gross as it is disturbing, a rumored relationship with co-star Maite Perroni, and another rumored affair, this time with another actress, Barbara Mori.

So... while Levy may be a sort of a 'ladies man' and also allegedly a big creeper, I'm going to run out on a limb here and say that he's probably got a few too many things on his hands as it is without dealing with serious heavy hitters like Lopez and Anthony, who could wreck his career just as easily as a romance with Jenny from the Block could get him crossover press (especially with the rest of the rumors about him, just a Google-search away online.)

And for another thing, anyone who has seen the video in question can attest to the fact that while Lopez and Levy sure are pretty, and make a handsome pair, they have about the same chemistry as I have with this spinach salad here. Almost.

Which is to say not very much.

So - what do you think? Are these two secret lovers? Is there an announcement coming that will make me eat my words?

Tell us your take on this potential love triangle in the comments! I can take it!

OMG, you guys. Ojani Noa's back on his soapbox yapping about the alleged video of JLo dirty-dancing for Puff Daddy and smooching with another lady. You know how there are people with whom you've been in relationships who turn out to be great friends, even if the romance doesn't work out? And then there are the people we've crossed paths with that we just plain wish we had never met... At this point, Jennifer Lopez would probably like to stuff Ojani Noa into a cannon and shoot him into outer orbit. I know I would...

That doesn't seem to be the case for Noa, though. He's hanging on, tooth and nail, to his fifteen minutes of 'fame,' and he is totally shameless about it. Ojani is so up in her business that he's still talking to newspapers about JLo (who, let's have a reality check, here, is now a over 40 years old and the mom of two little kids) more than a decade after the dissolution of their short-lived 1997 marriage.

Is it possible that this guy is kind of-sort of maybe a little bit of a loser? I'm just saying. Guy, let it GO.

But no.

So here we are, walloping this old dead horse again. Because Ojani Noa is an artist. The man is a FILMMAKER. And for him, this is all about what is legally permissible as material for his documentary. We've been reporting on this story for a while now, as the exes battle in court to determine whether certain recordings can be used by Noa.

But this bit is a new twist: the FILMMAKER claims that a video (or videos - sources vary) in his possession, which feature a fully-dressed Jenny From The Block grinding on ex-love Sean "P. Diddy" combs, among others, and also sharing a same-sex kiss, is NOT a sex tape and is therefore fair game for his upcoming cinematic work. JLo's lawyers want to declare the tape off-limits, claiming that the scenes captured there are private and personal, while Ojani's legal counsel claim that because the star is fully dressed, the video cannot be classified as such.

Noa's team has considered asking Diddy to appear in court, to testify that a sex tape does exist. According to what I understand of their logic, if Diddy states under oath that a "real" sex tape exists, and is distinctly different in its content from Ojani Noa's "non-sex" tape, then that would make the "non-sex" tape  legit material for the movie.

No lie, you guys, Ojani appeared on the popular Mexican news-and-gossip TV show "Ventaneando" just a couple of weeks ago, claiming that all he wants is to make this documentary of his, in order to clear his name and move on with his life:

"¿Cuál es el propósito de Ojani al mostrar esos videos? Ojani mismo contesta que quiere hacer un documental de su vida para limpiar su imagen, cerrar ese tormentoso capítulo y seguir adelante con su vida.

Noa dijo que una juez ya le dio un permiso para empezar a hacer el casting para los actores del documental y recalcó nuevamente que el contenido de los videos, que suman alrededor de 11 horas de duración, son situaciones normales y no hay nada de ámbito sexual."

You guys, I just know his movie's going to be SO AWESOME.

I can see it now, live from the Oscars: "And the award for Keeping it Classy goes to Ojani Noa."

But that's just me. What do you think? Would you go see a movie about the highs and lows of JLo and ONo!'s ten-month romance?

Jennifer Lopez is all confidence when it comes to her career and the way she handles controversies. After all, she has had her good share of them throughout her career and at this point she is a total pro, always handling the most embarrassing, painful and controversial issues with grace and style.

Obviously, Marc Anthony's ex, Dayanara Torres, has not had enough practice dealing with controversies -the only real controversy she has had to withstand has been her quickie divorce to Marc, who ran off to marry the gorgeous American Idol judge less than a month afterwards.

This lack of confidence was evident today, when Dayanara declared how worried she is about her two sons with Marc (Cristian and Ryan Anthony)  hearing about the private tapes of Jennifer Lopez and ex Ojani Noah.

In a statement to TVyNovelas magazine, the ex Miss Universe declared:

"One tries to hide certain things from them, but ultimately the kids grow up and  they continue to learn more things... As time goes by, it gets more difficult" , adding that the kids could also get the information through friends at school.

Although Marc and Dayanara's kids live with their mother, several magazines and paparazzi have seen Jlo being incredibly sweet and loving towards them, which confirms that the kids are surrounded by a healthy, loving environment.

So, Dayanara Torres should not be so worried.... specially when she obviously doesn't have  her facts straight.

Dayanara, if you're reading this, trust me, don't worry so much:

First, most likely your kids don't even know what's going on, because the so called "controversy" is mostly legal "mambojambo", being manipulated here and there.  The controversy here is not WHAT appears in the videos but rather  WHO has the legal right to release and use private videos in a commercial way without the other person's consent.

Second, if your kids learn about the video, you should know by now there are NO sex or intimate scenes in the video... It's just an embarrassing video for Jlo who's luckily very happy now and does not wish to have these  private images of her honeymoon  with an ex exposed... After all, those were private moments and conversations that were NOT meant to be heard or seen by anyone outside Noah and Lopez!

And third, this would be a great opportunity to sit with your kids and alert them about the things that could potentially happen to any famous person, including them. They are Marc Anthony's kids and most likely will be at one point in their lives victims of fame-thirsty, unscrupulous people themselves!

And lastly, may this be the million-tenth cautionary tale regarding videos, texts, and even emails to EVERYONE... Could people just STOP filming themselves and sexting? Even if you're not Jennifer Lopez, you'll save yourself a lot of embarrassment and heartache if you just resist the temptation. Just put that iPhone away.. trust me, you don't need it to have fun!

It’s the end of the year, which means it’s time for all kinds of Top 10 recaps — the year's hottest albums, biggest movies, even its best bootys. Yes, The Sun, of London, created a special category for World's Best Bum 2010.

Kim Kardashian, who proudly displays her derriere in tight dresses, bikinis and butt-hugging jeans, topped the list. Jennifer Lopez, whose booty has built its own fan base since she arrived on the scene in the early '90s, came in at No. 2. Beyonce “reared” up right behind J. Lo at No. 3, followed by Jessica BielLady Gaga, and Shakira and Rihanna. Pretty solid choices if you ask us. Of course, if George Lopez was calling the shots, we’re sure he would have added one more starlet to the list.

Who do you think had the best booty of 2010? Tell us below or @MTV3.

So we gave you a couple of weeks to get used to this "Happy New Year" and "Happy 2010" stuff... but now it's really starting to sink in that a new decade is upon us.  Es el fin de los 00s.  And to help us celebrate this momentous occasion, we've been airing some of lo mejor de lo mejor de los 00s toda esta semana on MTV Tr3s.  Catch the next Mejor De Los 00s countdown esta noche at 7pm EST, where we find out who las mejores mamasotas de la decada were!

Last night, during the first of our Mejor De Los 00s countdown, we took a look at the top musical collaborations of the decade.  Here are algunos de nuestros favoritos (in no particular order) -- vote on which of these is YOUR favorite and scroll down for more on cada uno! Watch the best collaborations de los 00s online here.

The #1 collabo of the decade?  Hands down, Shakira and Alejandro Sanz "La Tortura." Por que?  Well... have you seen Shakira in this video??  Can you say ultra mega caliente?!  This track was so hot when it appeared in 2005, that it was the first Spanish song performed at the MTV Video Music Awards, where it was also nominated.  Shaki went on to win a Grammy for the album, Fijación Oral Vol. 1, on which she collaborated con otros artistas como Wyclef Jean y Carlos Santana... pero we think this video is pretty much as hot as it gets!  Estás de acuerdo?

Also making a huge impact on the Latin music front en los 00s was Daddy Yankee f/Fergie "Impacto (Remix)." We triple dog dare you to remember una sola fiesta en el 2007 that did not include this poppin' track.  Esta canción fue hecha para bailar, and watching Miss Fergalicious get down with Daddy Yankee es cosa seria!  They don't call him The Big Boss for nothing... we like the way you do it!

Jennifer Lopez f/Marc Anthony "No Me Ames." Okay, okay, so technically this one came out in 1999.  But it won a Latin Billboard and was nominated for two Latin Grammys in 2000, so it counts, verdad?  Plus, este video fue la primera vez that we saw JLo and Marc (a Latin music powerhouse couple if we ever saw one!) así de juntitos.  Just think... would the sparks have flown four years later if it hadn't been for this video?  History in the making, amigos!

Beyoncé and Shakira "Beautiful Liar." So, just how big was Shakira en los 00s?  Big enough that we're including her twice.  But, can you really blame us?  This video con Beyoncé was a huge hit in 2007, if only because it united dos de las mujeres más bellas en la música pop.  And the video also won an MTV Music Video Award for Most Earth-Shattering Collaboration, so that oughtta tell you something!

Wisin y Yandel f/50 Cent "Mujeres in the Club." Did you really think we'd leave this one out?  No solo es que Wisin y Yandel revolucionaron el genero de reggaeton durante la decada, but these guys also collaborated with one of the biggest names in hip-hop.  El resultado?  A super hot club hit to round out the decade!  Disfrútalo!

Stay tuned to MTV Tr3s for more Mejor De Los 00s countdowns toda esta semana at 7pm EST!

Jennifer Lopez's highly anticipated new single featuring Pitbull was released yesterday. Entitled "Fresh Out The Oven" and produced by Pharell Williams, this is the first single off Lopez’s forthcoming album.  We caught up with Mr. 305 during the 2009 VMAs where he discussed his recent collabo with Jennifer Lopez, describing the track as "something very, very sexy" and the video as something reminiscent to the movie "Eyes Wide Shut." CALIENTE!

Lopez has not revealed her album title just yet but if yesterday’s online promotional launch of "Who is Lola" and new Twitter account is any revelation, then we have a feeling the album will be called "Lola," which is the new nickname Lopez has given herself.  Que, que?! Like Madonna's daughter? That’s right! According to sources, Jennifer Lopez will go by J.Lo no longer, self-titling herself Lola.  Doesn’t this remind you of someone? Perhaps of J.Lo's ex, Sean Combs, who's successfully made the transition from Puff Daddy to P. Diddy to just Diddy?  Or maybe of Beyonce and her alter-ego "Sasha Fierce"? Will Jennifer Lopez have the same success? I guess we have to wait and see…

Now without further ado, listen to Jennifer Lopez's new single featuring Pitbull and stay tuned for the release of the music video…

For a music collabo that is, don't get any ideas!  Mr. 305, aka Pitbull is teaming up with Paulina Rubio for the remix of her song, "Ni Rosas Ni Jugetes."

Paulina recently tweeted asking her fans if they liked Pitbull -- is that even a question? Yes! Si! Oui! Por supuesto that we do, Paulina.  We're pretty sure the remix will be sick, since lately he's been the go-to guy for hot Latin music collabos -- JLo has asked Pitbull to appear on her single, "Lola."

This isn't la primera vez that Paulina and Pitbull have teamed up.  The two hit the stage together in 2004 at the Los Premios MTV Latin America.  And from what we remember things got pretty hot and heavy, so we have high expectations for a new collabo!
