“There’s nothing going on with them right now,” explains our insider, “but he thinks she’s drop dead gorgeous and super cool.” Join the club Derek, responds the rest of the world. “He would kill for a chance to date her,” continues the source. “Drake should not get lazy, because Derek would love to swoop in.” What could that possibly mean… “not get lazy”?

Of course, it is worth noting that J.Lo has a history of becoming romantically entangled with men she’s worked with. And Derek isn’t exactly known for his love life. But hey, he surprised ALL OF US with those pipes on Hairspray Live!, so anything is possible. Considering Drake is already hanging out with Jennifer’s kids, Derek’s secret romance might have to wait for season two of Dance to blossom.

HollywoodLifers, is it at all surprising that Derek is crushing on J.Lo? If they did end up becoming an item, what would their nickname be?
