New York, March 27-28, 2007 – Jennifer Lopez whirled through New York City for two days this week, making a flurry of appearances to promote her new album, Como Ama Una Mujer. The collection of ballads is the singer/actress’ first all-Spanish language recording. Husband Marc Anthony, who had a hand in producing and writing the album, was by her side constantly at each promotional stop; and he is quite a gentleman, always getting out of the car, and walking around to open the door for his lady.

Thanks to MTV’s new budget cuts, a full week of the show Total Request Live is now shot in only two days; some airs live, and some is taped. Thus, Tuesday morning turned into afternoon by the time J. Lo finally arrived to do a segment.

That evening, just up the street in Times Square, J. Lo inaugurated a brand new, not yet open entertainment venue called Spotlight Live with her CD release party. Scheduled for 8:30, Jennifer and Marc finally arrived after 10 P.M.; the (unconfirmed) rumor was that they were late because they’d stopped first for dinner at the Russian Tea Room.

While there was no announcement about the party, Times Square passersby noticed the media horde outside the club, and a crowd of curious tourists grew exponentially, and actually burst through the barricades once the superstar couple drove up. Onlookers completely filled Broadway, but J. Lo, dressed rather oddly in a sheer mesh shroud over skin-tight shiny pants and bikini top, seemed unfazed by the adulation, and waved and smiled for the cameras.

The next day, Marc again accompanied Jenny from the block to her hometown, The Bronx, where she signed CDs at a FYE store. The scene on Jerome Avenue was lively, with a radio station’s van blasting J. Lo’s music for fans lined up under the El tracks for a glimpse. This cheering, laughing crowd was much more controlled than the previous night’s chaotic surge in Times Square.
