A representative for J.Lo has been quick to quash reports that the singer is in labour.

Lopez – who is expecting twins with husband Marc Anthony – was subject to online reports which claim the 38-year-old planned on giving birth in New York on Monday.

"It's not true," the rep tells Us. "We have been getting the same phone calls since last week. Everybody figures it is happening around now so they have started throwing out the story hoping they will be right and be the one to break the news but it isn't yet."

Earlier this month, the Get Right singer celebrated her pregnancy in style by hosting a lavish baby shower at the Gramercy Park Hotel New York City.

Lopez has also hinted that she intends to retire after becoming a mother.

”I don’t know - and I like that, because my life has been so planned for so many years" she told Harper’s Bazaar. “Once I did the tour, I really just wanted to shut it down.”
