Jennifer Lopez's beau 'genuinely cares'

Jennifer Lopez appreciates her beau Casper Smart's company while touring the world performing.

The singer-and-actress embarked on a worldwide concert tour over the summer.

Casper serves as her backup dancer on the shows.

Jennifer relishes the emotional support she receives from Casper during and after the demanding performances.

"You want people around you who genuinely care about you, not people that are just there for a paycheck," she told ET Online.

"Obviously he does care so. it''s been great to have him there on the road."

Casper is happy to buoy up Jennifer.

He understands how taxing a tour can be on the psyche.

'Going out on a project like this, you need all the love and support you can get,' he explained.

Casper and Jennifer have created many fond memories in 2012.

The dancer is moved by the Valentine's Day they shared this year.

"I rented a helicopter and we went to Laguna Beach [in California]," Casper recalled.

"I did a big thing out there."
