"Jennifer Lopez has said that her new job as a judge on American Idol will allow her to spend more time with her family.  The star - who was announced as an addition to the 10th season of the Fox singing competition earlier this week - has 2-year-old twins with husband Marc Antony. &amp;quot;We&amp;#039;re really happy that we get to be in one place with the babies for a while,&amp;quot; she said. &amp;quot;This is going to put us here for like six months. It&amp;#039;s unheard of for us. The babies can do dance class and soccer practice. We&amp;#039;re excited about being a little bit of a normal family for a little while.&amp;quot; Lopez went on to admit that she would never have expected to be part of a show like American Idol. &amp;quot;I don&amp;#039;t know that we ever thought I&amp;#039;d do something like this. But when I was a dancer, was I going to be an actress? Yeah,&amp;quot; she explained.  &amp;quot;When I was an actress, was I going to be a singer? Yes. I just think this is another evolution of that - and [Marc] explained it to me like that.&amp;quot;  American Idol returns to Fox in January 2011. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
