Can you believe that JLo said this?

Lopez, who appeared on "Good Morning America" Aug. 18 to discuss her preparations for the Malibu Triathlon, was overheard saying after the segment that she “couldn’t understand why everyone is talking about that swimmer,” according to a GMA source. “She couldn’t come up with (eight-time gold-medal winner Michael) Phelps’ name, and then she yammered on about how she was the one training for a triathlon just six months after giving birth, and how that was the big story right now, not ‘the swimmer.’ ” (this was on msn.msnbc.com)

I hope it isn't true. How can anyone be so self-absorbed? I know they are about to wear out Michael Phelps, but he did just win 8 gold medals. How many has she won? I never criticize athletes' performance. I know that they are in the Olympics and I'm not. I can barely swim a lap, much less 200m or 400m in world record time.

How do you spell diva? J-L-O!

I can't believe that anyone could be that self-absorbed. I've never been a big fan, and I thought the whole "Bennifer" deal was ridiculous. But it seemed like she had been a little more low-profile since getting together with Marc Anthony. Guess her ego is still going strong though!

I don't watch morning TV and didn't hear this story but that is just so so rude of her!! Who cares that she is running or training. Lots of people run for fun and don't get press from it.
