Yeah, Jennifer Lopez and Maksim Chmerkovskiy are doing it

Jennifer Lopez‘s camp shot down rumours last week that after dumping Casper Smart‘s ass like a bad habit, she’d already starting dating Dancing with the Stars pro Maksim Chmerkovskiy. However, that denial thing isn’t going very well since they were seen (again) on a date this weekend, which was apparently “very flirty”.

From US Weekly:

The Dancing With the Stars pro, 34, attended Lopez’s show at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Connecticut on Saturday, June 21, after which he and the “First Love” singer, 44, danced the night away at Shrine Nightclub.

An onlooker tells Us Weekly that the two stayed close for most of the night, talking and dancing together in a big group. “Maks was whispering into her ear and hugging her,” the eyewitness says. “They looked very flirty with each other…She had a huge smile on her face and looked like she was having a great time.”

The source notes that Chmerkovskiy, who won season 18 of DWTS with partner Meryl Davis last month, remained by the recently single star’s side even when he wasn’t dancing. Lopez, meanwhile, was super into the music and grooving to songs including Jay Z’s “99 Problems,” Rihanna’s “Birthday Cake,” and French Montana’s “Pop That.”

At one point toward the end of the night, the two held hands and talked before sharing a long hug and saying goodbye. Chmerkovskiy then left with a male friend, while Lopez stayed behind with the rest of the group.

LOL. It cracks me up that it’s actually someone’s job to sit around watching celebrities’ every move to report back to some shitty tabloid magazine like this. Can’t you just picture some entry level college grad scribbling down what songs were playing in this club in their little notebook? Egads.

Then again, it could just be some intern sitting at a desk, writing up whatever comes into his/her head. Who can say? For now, I guess we’ll just have to believe that love is in the air for these two.
