Jennifer Lopez should hook-up with next or how she should go about it, after all her split from husband of seven years Marc Anthony was just announced this past week when the couple released a joint statement saying,This was a very difficult decision. It is a painful time for all involved, and we appreciate the respect of our privacy at this time." But given the speed with which celebrities have been known to bounce back after a split, it's only a matter of time before the 41-year-old actress' name is linked to another man.

She could cross over from the FOX network to ABC and star in "The Bachelorette." Besides providing a great big boost in ratings for the program, Lopez could help pioneer a celebrity foray into the series. Of course, the fact that the she will have 25 eligible bachelors to choose from won't hurt Jennifer's love life any.

Let's face it, "American Idol" hasn't had a real juicy Judge/Contestant scandal since Paula Abdul's alleged affair with contestant Corey Clark in 2005. At the time of the allegation, Abdul was only a year younger than Lopez is now, which means the actress is not too only to be caught in a similar scandal. Besides, with the departure of Simon Cowell last season.

It's time for Jennifer to hook-up with an athlete of equal star power? Recently actresses such as Hilary Duff (hockey player Mike Comrie), Minka Kelly (baseball player Derek Jeter) and Eva Longoria (basketball playerTony Parker) have all gone that route, so why not Lopez? While the success of the relationship may be only short lived, it will at least keep her name in the press for a while to come.
