KEY POINTS:
Jennifer Lopez's pregnancy has been confirmed by designer Roberto Cavalli.
The Italian fashion designer was commissioned to create a selection of special outfits for the singer so she can hide her baby bump on joint tour with husband Marc Anthony.
Cavalli said: "At this moment Jennifer Lopez isrequesting something very special because she is waiting for the baby. It is so complicated because every week she is getting bigger."
The 38-year-old singer has been seen on stage wearing a series of loose fitting, empire line outfits that fall from the bust, skimming her baby bump.
Cavalli said: "The thing about Jennifer Lopez is she is a singer, she is a dancer. Most of the time when I prepare something for the tour, the performer, they want something very soft so they can dance and so they can move free."
Rumours of J.Lo's pregnancy first surfaced in September and she is thought to be due to give birth in the spring.
Meanwhile, the Do it Well singer's new album, Brave, has flopped, only selling 53,000 copies in its first week.
Her record label Epic is now believed to want to drop the singer because production costs for the unsuccessful LP have been so expensive.
Her latest video cost US$300,000 to make, her make-up artist costs US$8,000 a day, while US$60,000 was spent on the album cover. Epic makes just US$4 per CD sold.
To add to J.Lo's troubles, her new movie 'Bordertown' in which she plays a reporter probing the murders of female factory workers in Mexico is reportedly going straight to rental in January.
The film, co-starring Antonio Banderas, was booed at the Berlin International Film Festival.
