New York, May 30, 2007 – Just as Marc Anthony was about to speak to Access Hollywood at the Children’s Health Fund gala on Wednesday, a cell phone began to ring very loudly. Some of the media folks jeered, and the phone kept jingling, and Marc joked, “I’ll get that in a second!” Whoever the phone belonged to didn’t get the hint – it rang again about 30 seconds later, and the the Latin superstar ignored it the second time.

CHF provides health care to uninsured children, and Jennifer Lopez, there to support her man who performed at the gala, said she’s all about the kids. “I’ve always had close to my heart the children’s charities", Lopez said. "It’s very important that they have all they need to grow and prosper into healthy human beings.”

Despite the lack of a belly bump in the fitted Michael Kors gown that J. Lo was wearing, talking about children led the reporter, inevitably, to ask if the couple has a bun in the oven. Jennifer whispered “No”; Marc said “Oh, here we go!” and they swiftly left the press room.
