Lopez and Drake have been reportedly maintaining a secret relationship and used working together as an excuse to keep their romance under tight wraps. The pair sparked dating rumor after the former boyfriend of Rihanna attended Lopez's "All I Have" concert in Vegas earlier this month, according to USA Today.
The two have yet to confirm or deny the dating rumors. However, an insider close to Lopez recently commented about the relationship of the two singers.
"Jen is looking forward with excitement to the new year," the insider told People. "She keeps hanging out with Drake, and he has visited her house. She has nothing but nice things to say about Drake."
Meanwhile, a podcast by Perez Hilton featured Chris Booker, a TV and radio personality who once dated the "Shades of Blue" star's sister, Lynda Lopez. Booker shared some details about the recent dating reports.
During the podcast, Hilton suggested that Jennifer's romance with Drake could be a publicity stunt. For Hilton, it is similar to Rob Kardashian and Blac Chyna's very public fight recently for their reality show "Rob & Chyna."
However, Booker disagreed saying that Jennifer will never date anyone for public attention. He added that if she likes Drake, it is without caring if he is an A-list star or a B-list star and she is not the kind of person who dates someone for the sake of making news.
