Jennifer Lopez isn’t shedding tears over her split with boy-toy Casper Smart because she’s already moved on to “Dancing With the Stars” hunk Maksim Chmerkovskiy, sources tell Page Six.
We’re told Lopez met Maks when they began working on a performance ahead of the American Music Awards late last year. One source said, “They were definitely attracted to each other, but nothing happened between them” because Lopez was still with former backup dancer Smart and Maks was dating model Kate Upton, with whom he broke up weeks later.
The source added J.Lo and Maks have remained in close contact and were spotted meeting up at the Redbury Hotel in LA in March.
Life & Style reported, “At one point, he put his arm around her waist and they seemed to be locked in a very passionate conversation.”
Lopez, who’s in Brazil for the World Cup opening, and Maks are expected to meet up when he returns from a two-week trip to India. Their reps declined to comment.
