I can take a lot of punches - Jennifer Lopez

Jennifer Lopez appears on the current cover of V Magazine showing her more combative side and discussing her artistic career of almost two decades and her booming business activities.

“I can take a lot of punches,” she said. “I can take a lot of punches and still keep going,” she said in an interview with the magazine. “I’ve been trained like a boxer to go 15 rounds.” The interview accompanies an eye-catching graphic report by Peruvian Mario Testino.
JLo, who rocketed to fame in the mid-1990s with the film “Selena”, posed for Testino’s camera dressed like a boxer with an aggressive look on her face, and showing once more that even at age 42 she continues to be one of world’s sexiest women. The singer and actress also had her Latino roots on display once again.

“It really defines you and makes you who you are,” she told V. “When doing Q’Viva (the TV talent search she co-hosts with ex-husband Marc Anthony), it was kind of reinforcing that, showing how important it is to me and staying connected to that and showing my kids what that’s all about.”
