Lopez Tells Miami Crowd She's Expecting

Jennifer Lopez has confirmed what has become increasingly obvious: She's pregnant.

Lopez, who is touring with her husband, Marc Anthony, made the announcement to South Florida concertgoers Wednesday night.

"Marc and I are expecting," the 39-year-old singer told the crowd in Miami. Lopez didn't say when she is due to give birth.

After her announcement, Anthony kissed his wife's belly.

"I didn't know she was going to talk," he said.

Lopez and Anthony, 38, were married in 2004.

Last month, Roberto Cavalli, who created free-flowing outfits for Lopez, said the singer was pregnant.

Asked what types of clothing he designs for celebrities, Cavalli told People magazine: "Well Jennifer Lopez, at this moment, she requests something very special because she is waiting for the baby."

"It is so complicated because every week she is getting bigger," Cavalli said.

Designer Says Jennifer Lopez Is Pregnant

Roberto Cavalli has confirmed, perhaps inadvertently, that Jennifer Lopez is pregnant. Asked what types of clothing he designs for celebrities, the fashion designer told People magazine: "Well Jennifer Lopez, at this moment, she requests something very special because she is waiting for the baby." "It is so complicated because every week she is getting bigger," Cavalli said in a story posted Tuesday on the magazine's Web site.

Cavalli, known for his attention-getting designs, created free-flowing outfits for Lopez, who has been on tour with her husband, Marc Anthony.

His comment came after weeks of speculation, tabloid baby-bump pictures and raised eyebrows. Lopez, 39, has declined comment.

A telephone message left Wednesday for her publicist, Nancy Ryder, wasn't immediately returned.

"The thing about Jennifer Lopez, she is a singer, she is a dancer," Cavalli said. "Most of the time when I prepare something for the tour, the performer, they want something very soft so they can dance and so they can move free."
