Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony’s neighbors are putting their home up for sale, which gives the happy couple another excuse to put their names in the tabloids and on blogs by doing something over the top and ridiculous. This time, they’re hired six additional bodyguards (Houseguards? Superfluous wastes of money?) to guard their home 24 hours:

First bright pink signs were hung along the private road leading to Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony’s Brookville home warning trespassers to keep out. Now comes word in the latest issue of In Touch that the couple has hired “six bodyguards to be on duty 24 hours a day” now that their newborn twins, Max and Emme, are home.

Not a bad idea considering that potential buyers will now be entering the private gates that protect them from outsiders: As RealLI reported first yesterday, Lopez and Anthony’s next-door neighbors, who share those gates, have put their house on the market for $2,299 million.

Because $2,300 million was just excessive. Now, we know there are crazy stalkers out there, espesh in Lawn Guyland, but maybe hot pink “No Trespassing” signs and various huge guys with earpieces standing outside one’s home might attract more attention? Because it sure as hell isn’t the “Jennifer Lopez Wuz Here” spelled out in rubies on the front gate.

This is why we hire lions to sit on our front stoop. They are kept on a strict diet of PBR and overpriced brunch, so they are hungry. For hipsters.
