Singer Jennifer Lopez was seen leaving Craig's in Hollywood with a male friend on Saturday evening.
The 45-year-old looked in high spirits as the handsome gentleman beside her guided her into a car before driving off.

The pair had oozed chemistry last season on Dancing With The Stars and it apparently hasn't weakened.

'Got to see this one! Finally! Thanks for breakfast @meryledavis,' Maksim wrote in his caption.

'Missed this one,' Meryl wrote in her caption of the same picture.
Maksim appeared to be holding the camera as he took the selfie wearing a white V-neck T-shirt and a light beard.
Meryl flashed a wide smile as she was pressed against Maksim wearing a denim shirt and sunglasses with her long, dark hair down.

Maksim sparked dating rumours with singing superstar Jennifer Lopez, 45, after they were spotted together at a nightclub in Connecticut.
He continued fueling the reports last month when he attended J-Lo's 45th birthday bash in Southampton, New York.
Maksim also announced on The View last month that he wouldn't be performing on Dancing With The Stars again.

'I'm done dancing. I feel like it's time,' he said.
Maksim was leaving on a high note as he and Meryl took home the coveted mirror ball trophy in May on the hit ABC dancing competition show.
The obvious chemistry between Maksim and Meryl also fuelled dating rumours that only heightened in June when they were spotted on a dinner date.
