Going to the Dogs at "The Back-up Plan" Premiere

Los Angeles – When Jennifer Lopez hits the red carpet, all eyes are usually on her. But at the premiere of her new romantic comedy "The Back-up Plan" on Wednesday, April 21, there was another star who stole her thunder. No, it wasn't her famous husband Marc Anthony, although her was right there by her side, or her Australian co-star Alex O'Loughlin that pulled the focus from Lopez; instead it was a little Boston Terrier that drew coos from everyone, including "The Dog Whisperer" Cesar Millan.

His name is Nubbins, and along with two other dogs that look just like him, he's one of the stars of the movie, playing Lopez's pet. He's adorable, but certainly not as gorgeous as Lopez, or her famous friends who came along for the festivities. Heidi Klum walked the carpet-like runway, while the "Dancing with the Stars" crowd, includingEdyta Sliwinska, Karina Smirnoff, Gilles Marini and Jake Pavelka and his fiancée Vienna Girardi soft-shoed their way into the newly re-christened Regency Village Theatre in Westwood. The rest of the cast of "The Back-up Plan" turned out, too, including Tom Bosley, Anthony Anderson, Noureen DeWulf and Jennifer Elise Cox.

The film tells the story of a single woman who gets artificially inseminated and then meets the man of her dreams. It's a plot that Lopez was crazy about from the moment she read it.

"I just loved it. It was a good script. It's not easy to find a goodromantic comedy script that has a premise that hasn't been done a million times, like the girl has commitment issues or she's afraid of love," Lopez told reporters at an earlier press day for the film. "It's usually something very basic like that and I just loved the idea of the conflict, the whole obstacle being a pregnancy, being a child and how serious that is and how life changing that is. I thought that it was a really, really interesting thing."
