(Sports Bra Expert Note: For those of you out there, who have never had the privilege of wearing one, there is elastic along the bottom of the sports bra, so it should sit snugly against the body under the breasts, preventing anything from spilling out.)

No doubt, they will show off her physique a lot more-which lets face it, is the main point.
You will be happy to notice, the editors decided to go with slightly different photos for the cover, a least the bra is on correctly. But alas, with the Internet out today and my Celebrity Fashion Blog, the pictures above will be around forever. J. Lo I would
BURN this magazine spread and
