Biographie

Secretly married Marc Anthony on June 5, 2004; all the guests were invited to an "afternoon party", and they were never told that they were going to a wedding.

Has 4 stepchildren: stepdaughter, Arianna Muñiz (b. June 26, 1994), adoptive stepson, Alex "Chase" Muñiz (b. June 9, 1995) and stepsons, Cristian Marcus Muñiz (b. February 5, 2001) & Ryan Adrian Muñiz (b. August 16, 2003) with ex-husband, Marc Anthony.

Began her career as a dancer for Janet Jackson.

She moved to Manhattan to learn how to dance and used to sleep in the studio where she was practicing.

Is the first actress to have a movie (Un mariage trop parfait (2001)) and a music album hit number one in the same week.

I thought she'd offer me some sympathy. Instead, she said, "Don't you ever call me crying again! You wanted to be in this business, so you better toughen up!". And I did. [to Redbook magazine August 1999, on the lesson in tough love she got from her mother]

You laugh it off, you get upset for a little while, you're human and you let it go. [on the "outrageous" tabloid stories she hears about herself, at a press conference to discuss her movie, The Cell (2000) in August 2000]

(on The Cell (2000)) This film certainly is not meant for the girls who sing along with my songs.

I was always a singer and a dancer, and I always wanted to be an actress. For me, it's all just one thing.

(upon being asked what she got on her SAT's) Nail polish.
