There are rumors flying around that JENNIFER LOPEZ is headlining the Super Bowl halftime show.  And when she was confronted about it, she didn’t deny it.

She was playing some sort of ‘truth game’ with HODA KOTB . . . and she was asked, quote, “Are you performing at the Super Bowl this year?”

J-Lo paused, laughed, and eventually said, quote, “I . . . I don’t know.”

Back in July, J-Lo said, quote, “[I’ve] thought about the Super Bowl . . . It’s a big deal, but we’ll see.  They make their own decisions over there.”

By the way, Hoda also asked J-Lo about the OSCAR BUZZ she’s getting for “Hustlers”, and she said, quote, “I’ve just been working hard for my whole life, so it’s nice.”  And then she teared-up a bit.  (Here’s video.)

On a totally unrelated note, last month was the 16th anniversary of the release of “Gigli” . . . one of the worst movies of all time . . . which starred J-Lo, and Oscar winners Ben Affleck, Al Pacino, and Christopher Walken.
