Jennifer Lopez is 'more marketable' now she is single again, an industry expert claims.

The 42-year-old performer is seeing a resurgence in her career after her July split from Latin singer Marc Anthony.

Life & Style magazine claims she is flourishing because Marc is no longer holding her back amid rumours that he was controlling in the relationship.

'She's more marketable now,' entertainment industry insider Ryan Schinman told the publication.

'To guys, she's attainable again, which makes her sexier.'

The mother to three-year-old twin Max and Emme has been working a lot more in the past few months.

As well as taping audition episodes for the upcoming season of American Idol which she will receive $20 million for, she has also scored movie roles that will make her $30 million and signed up for endorsement deals that will bring in another $10 million.

Just four days after announcing the end of her seven year marriage, Jennifer earned $1 million by singing at a Ukrainian wedding.

The Jenny From The Block star also has her new clothing line at Kohl's department store, is the face of Spanish jewellery line Tous and has commercials currently running for Fiat's new car.

Jennifer is also in production on new movie What To Expect When You're Expecting and upcoming film Parker.
