When Jennifer Lopez is done with someone she really is finished with them!

Reportedly that goes for ex-employees, discarded friends and, it seems, former husbands and lovers.

Lopez is said to be systematically eliminating visual memories of Marc Anthony from all of her homes, removing photos of her future ex-husband from all rooms except the couples childrens bedrooms.

On top of that, J. Lo also reportedly is quietly selling all the jewelry Anthony gave her and he gave her quite a lot. She also is said to have given away any clothing gifts as well.

A source close to Lopez says this is how she has always operated.

It was true when she split with Ben [Affleck], Diddy [Sean Combs] and obviously Ojani Noa, the ex-husband with whom Lopez long has been locked in various legal battles.

When Jennifer moves on, she totally moves on, added the source, who also added that current lover J. Lo backup dancer Casper Smart will likely discover he will disappear when she tires of him too.

As for now, however, Smart seems very much in the drivers seat, with Lopez insisting he be prese! nt for a ll kinds of business meetings not just personal party time.
