Jennifer Lopez is 'Trained Like A Boxer' on V Magazine Cover

Jennifer Lopez appeared on the cover of V Magazine in a fighting stance, complete with boxing gear. The diva wore Prada on the outside, but discussed the details of her career and pending divorce on the inside.

Jennifer Lopez's V magazine look surprised many. Her hand wraps, short updo, and men's groin piece are far from the gowns and dresses fans are accustomed to seeing her wear. For J-Lo, the boxing theme was more than just an experiment; it represented her ability to stay tough in the face of adversity.

"I can take a lot of punches and keep going," said the "American Idol" judge. "I've been trained like a boxer to go 15 rounds."

Lopez divulged her feelings about the industry she chose to go into as well during V magazine's interview. The Grammy Award-winning singer originally started her career as a background dancer for comedy sketch show "In Living Color," but now her estimated wealth is over $150 million, and she has become one of the most successful female entertainers on the planet.

For J-Lo, the secret behind her success was accepting that everything won't always turn out fine.

"You're not going to hit the target or the bull's-eye every time. That's part of it," she said of her pop career. "At the end of the day, I made those choices. I've been in the business now, I don't want to say how many years. You have amazing moments of recognition and success. But at this point in my life, I try to take it all with a grain of salt."

One thing that ended up not going right was her marriage to singer Marc Anthony. Married in 2004 and separated from him in June of 2011, Lopez said many expected animosity to develop, but they became friends instead.

"I mean, we're parents and friends first," said Lopez, citing her twins, Emme and Maximilian, who were born 2007. "That will be the thread that ties us together. I don't know if people expect it to be negative just because the relationship didn't work out."

Currently, Lopez is a judge on "American Idol," and will be seen in films such as "What to Expect When You're Expecting" and "Parker" in 2012.
