New photos of Jennifer Lopez and Maksim Chmerkovskiy getting very close is doing little to quash rumors that the good-looking duo might be dating.
E! News already reported that the 44-year-old singer and the 34-year-old Dancing With the Stars pro hung out together Saturday night at The Shrine Club in Connecticut after one of J.Lo's concerts at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket. And now, we have photos to prove just how intimate things got between the possible new couple!
In one dark snapshot, Lopez and Chmerkovskiy stand side by side inside the club. Chmerkovskiy, who's wearing a white T-shirt, looks down at what is presumably his cellphone as Lopez smiles and stares down at his phone with their faces just a few inches from each other's.
In a second pic, the duo stand a little further apart while still facing each other. While there's no major PDA in the photos, one thing's for sure: both of them look visibly happy to be hanging out together!
In addition to the pics, a source tells E! News Lopez and Chmerkovskiy arrived to the joint around 12:30 a.m. and were "flirty" during the night. Lopez's manager and some other people were also in their group. "They partied and seemed really at ease together," the source said.
When Lopez left around 1:45, they hugged goodbye and he stayed inside the club.
Lopez and Chmerkovskiy met last November when they shared the stage at the 2013 American Music Awards during her tribute to Celia Cruz and have kept in touch since.
Meanwhile, Lopez stopped by Hot 97 radio station this week and opened up about still believing in marriage. "I've tried to be married before," she said. "It's not the easiest thing in the world but at the same time I do believe in it. I believe in the institution, I believe in committing to someone."
