American Idol judge Jennifer Lopez has spoken out in defence of her manager Benny Medina, after it was claimed that he had criticised the singer. Jennifer stated that she had been in the entertainment industry for long enough to realise that the press can often take someone’s comments out of context.

Lopez explained, "I know Benny and he's like my best friend, like I said, my creative soulmate. I know the way he says things and I know he would never say anything that would be hurtful to me in any way.”
She added, "So things can be taken out of context and, you know, I've done interviews for a long time. You have to just know what is going to be misconstrued, let's say. I trust [Medina] completely."

Jennifer Lopez recently admitted that it can be quite difficult raising children, especially when you add the fact that she is split from her children’s father Marc Anthony. However, Jennifer admits that Marc has been fantastic and has helped her more than anybody could ever imagine.
Do you think Jennifer Lopez is right to defend her manager or do you think he actually meant what he said?
