Marc Anthony has put a little pressure on wife Jennifer Lopez by revealing that he might miss the delivery of his baby because of work commitments.

The latin star has bizarrely scheduled concert in his native Puerto Rico next week - the same time when J.Lo is due to give birth in a New York hospital.In a new interview with Puerto Rican newspaper El Nuevo Dia, Anthony says he hopes his wife won't go into labour while he's working."I've been with her 24 hours a day, and I'm going to be away from her for just a few hours" said the 39-year-old. "She can't go into labour during that time."I mean, I'm praying that doesn't happen."Anthony insists he'll fufill his work commitments but return to New York immediately after the show.The singer didn't offer any more details about the impending birth, but reports Lopez had checked into hospital on Thursday appeared premature when the singer was spotted shopping for baby clothes at a recent mall.
