The split from Anthony was in July and it is reported that Lopez began dating Smart in May.

The relationship with Smart, who is facing possible jail time, is reminiscent of Lopez’s relationship with music mogul Sean “P. Diddy” Combs, when the two were arrested in a nightclub shooting incident in New York City in 1999. The couple tried fleeing the club after shots rang out.

Lopez who has always denied involvement in the shooting was never charged. Combs faced trial on weapons charges, but was acquitted.

Lopez, who appeared at this year’s American Music Awards and wowed audiences as she performed a medley of her hits, picked up honors for best artist in the Latin Music Category. Later, she and Smart made news as they appeared romantic at an after party.

Smart, a well established dancer has worked with a number of celebrated artists, including Beyonce, Nicki Minaj, Eminem, and Jordan Sparks to name a few.

 The dancer has also appeared in a number of episodes of the TV show "Glee", and, according to his bio, was supposed to perform with Michael Jackson in his “This is it “ world tour.
