Jennifer Lopez Returns To Her Spanish Roots

After more media exposure than any celebrity could ever want (no, really), J-Lo made the wise decision of retreating from the spotlight for a while. I am pretty sure that even she got sick of hearing her name and seeing her face everywhere. Instead of her usual spotlight-yanking shenanigans, she’s been keeping a low profile with main squeeze Marc Anthony, enjoying a little breather from the headlines.

According to Billboard, that R&R time has run its course. Lopez is planning to release her first-ever Spanish language album, titled Como Ama Una Mujer (How a Woman Loves), on April 3 via Epic (which will work with Song BMG Latin to get it out there in the Latin market). Her adoring hubby co-wrote and co-produced the CD with Estefano and Julio Reyes.

"Emotionally speaking, to me this album is more me than any other album," she relayed to Billboard.

And that’s not all—she has also landed a sweet deal with Univision TV to release a five-part miniseries, which is based around the content of the album and, of course, includes songs from it. Although she was fantastic in Selena and Out of Sight and never really got enough credit for either of those, she will not be acting in the miniseries.

For those of you who miss her music but would rather hear something in English, your wish is her command: She is also planning to release an English-language album sometime before 2008.
