Jennifer Lopez has finally opened up in a new interview about her recent emotional breakdown, her thoughts on Scientology, selling celebrity baby photos and breast feeding – an interview which has had its veracity called into question by Lopez’s reps.
In an interview posted on the new Web Site, The Daily Beast (former Vanity Fair and New Yorker editor Tina Brown’s new online media venture), Lopez discusses a host of controversial topics with writer Kevin Sessums.
However, her rep tells Access Hollywood that, “Jennifer Lopez did not do an interview for the Daily Beast.”
