J-Lo splits with dancer boyfriend

Jennifer Lopez and boyfriend Casper Smart have split up after five years together.

The 47-year-old US singer and 29-year-old dancer are still on "good terms" after an "amiable" break-up.

A source told People: "It wasn't anything dramatic and they were on good terms - it just came to a natural end. They will remain friends and see each other, but they are not together. It was very amiable."

The On the Floor singer met the dancer-choreographer not long after she and husband Marc Anthony announced their split in 2011.


Leslie Jones' website hacked

US actress Leslie Jones' personal website was hacked on Wednesday, causing her personal information and photos to be leaked.

The 48-year-old Ghostbusters star's passport, driving licence and various explicit iCloud photos were posted to JustLeslie.com during the hack.

The site also displayed a video of the gorilla Harambe, who was killed at the Cincinnati Zoo earlier this year.

Jones has yet to comment on the incident.

This is not the first time Jones has fallen victim to hateful and racist online attacks.

After the release of Ghostbusters in July, trolls sent her a barrage of vicious and obscene tweets, and one website editor was banned from Twitter after initiating much of the abuse.

The 31-year-old singer and her daughters, Ethel Cooper, four, and Marnie Cooper, three, would have been caught in the disaster if not for an unforeseen emergency that cut their trip short.

Allen posted on Twitter to reassure fans of her safety: "Had to leave my family holiday in Umbria early to come home for a funeral. Such sad scenes but feeling blessed that my lot are all ok x".

At least 241 people have been killed by the 6.2-magnitude earthquake that struck central Italy.
