Jennifer Lopez, allegedly, has her eyes set on Brad Pitt.
Even though it was announced that Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez are still working on their relationship, New Idea is insisting that they’ve broken up.
And a source for the tabloid claimed that Lopez doesn’t want to waste any more time before she settles down again.
As such, she has decided to strike a flirty banter with Pitt, who she has been friends with for years.
Jennifer Lopez looking for a new man to date
The World of Dance judge, allegedly, followed the advice of publicity firm Full Pictures, which specializes in building buzz through press coverage.
“She wanted a team behind her that could rebuild her image if she and Alex do split,” the source said.
Brad Pitt, Jennifer Lopez flirted years ago
The insider also claimed that Pitt was surprised when Lopez should interest in him because he watched her interview on Ellen Show years ago.
Back then, host Ellen DeGeneres asked Lopez who she would choose between Pitt and Harry Styles, and she chose the latter.
However, the insider insisted that Lopez almost chose Pitt over Styles, but she changed her answer at the last minute.
“At the time, Brad joked that he was still wounded from the insult. It was an excellent icebreaker and showed Jennifer Lopez that she’d need to bring her A-game with Brad. And she loves a challenge,” the source said.
However, one should take the tabloid’s claims with a grain of salt. After all, there is no proof that Lopez and Pitt are flirting with each other.

Sources close to the Shade of Blue alum confirmed that Lopez and Rodriguez are still together.

“All the reports are inaccurate. We are working through some things,” they said.
Another source also told the publication that Lopez is smitten by Rodriguez’s big gestures.
“Alex remains committed to working on things with Jennifer. It was important to Jennifer Lopez that Alex stepped up in a public way and showed his level of commitment to her with a trip to see her while working. Jennifer appreciates big gestures like these,” the source said.
