Jennifer Lopez says her twins are 'the light of my whole life'

Jennifer Lopez says her young twins are 'the joy and the light of my whole life', adding: "Everything is so much better now with them in my life."

The superstar says it is 'tough, like for any working mum out there' as she gets to work as a judge on American Idol rather than giving full-time care to twins Max and Emme.

"But they are the joy and the light of my whole life," she told Oprah Winfrey. "Everything is so much better now with them in my life.

"I'm actually enjoying working even more now - because I'm enjoying then going home more."

J-Lo joined fellow judges Randy Jackson and Steven Tyler on Oprah's show - where Aerosmith legend Tyler joked that he joined as a judge just to get next to J-Lo.

"I saw this as an opportunity to have some fun - and sit next to J-Lo here," he told Oprah.

As for his band members being critical of the move, he brushed it aside by saying: "I've been judged all my life."
