Even though the Latin diva's rep has said this is all a bunch of baloney, the New York Daily News reports that Jennifer Lopez has decided to bulk up her security team in response to some disturbing threats she's received from animal-rights extremists.

The source says J.Lo initially dismissed the notes, which have been arriving for a month, as lunatic junk mail. But husband Marc Anthony isn't taking the matter lightly.

"He has hired two off-duty police officers, in addition to her usual security team, to watch over Lopez whenever she makes public appearances," says the pal.

The notes reportedly caution the superstar that she will be murdered in public, "just like the slaughtered animals whose fur she wears." To which JLO responded by rolling her eyes and saying, "Ha. Ha. Very funny. I get it already, my husband looks like a dead weasel. You don't have to be dicks about it. And for the record, he's on my arm, but I am not WEARING him. Jerks."
