J.Lo's first ex husband, Ojani Noa, is unable to publish a tell-all book about their relationship now that Lopez won a case against him publishing the book. He signed a confidentiality agreement with Lopez in late 2005 as part of his settlement payout for a breach of contract lawsuit against her. Noa claimed that Lopez had him unfairly fired from his manager position at her Pasadena restaurant, Madre's.
In April Noa told Lopez's attorneys that he'd put the book out unless she paid him a cool $5 million. Of course the diva wasn't having that and sued him in an attempt to block the book, which is said to have juicy details like J.Lo cheating on P.Diddy in 1999 with Marc Anthony. Unfortunately J.Lo was successful and we won't be able to get our hands on the novel, but one detail did come out: Noa claims Lopez does Santeria on her enemies to get back at them:
I believe this, because Lopez was said to have consulted a Santeria advisor at the time of her upcoming wedding to Ben Affleck. The voodoo guru told her to call it off:
Santeria fuses Roman Catholic beliefs with traditional West African religions. It's preserved by an oral tradition and rituals involve animal sacrifice, dancing, chanting and magic spells. Animals,usually chickens, are sacrificed to bring good luck and forgiveness of sins, and to please the saints.
That's pretty funny and we hope more dirt gets released on Lopez even though the book was blocked. If she's gullible enough to believe in voodoo, maybe Lea Remini will successfully convert her to Scientology.
Here she is in the videoshoot for "I'm gonna be alright," which was released in 2002. [via]
Marc Anthony may or may not be ill. When we say he's ailing, we're referring to an earlier story where we speculated based on scant evidence that the Latin crooner is dying. He may not be verifiably ill, but he sure acts grumpy enough to at least be suffering from an intestinal disorder.
Anthony got in a fight with photographersat the Women in Film awards on Tuesday. When a photographer pushed him back while trying to get a picture of J.Lo he went off on the guy:
Anthony exploded, "'Don't ever push me again, and step back! Step back away from them,'" according to the source. "He physically shoved one guy back."
The snapper "briskly pushed away Marc's hand off his shoulder," but also apologized, says the witness.
Honoree Lopez had paused for a photo op with co-host Nicola Maramotti, wife of MaxMara owner Ignazio Maramotti. But Anthony had his enormous bodyguard plant himself in front of the offending photographer's shot.
Marc has a too-short fuse and is quick to declare his love for his diva wife. Somethings wrong with him!
Meanwhile J.Lo has publically denied that she's pregnant. People are insisting she is, though, because In Touch says she supposedly bought a diaper bag and told Leah Remini that her boobs are going to get bigger while they were out shopping for clothing. TMZ was there too, and said it's not true since sales staff swore that Lopez had a flat stomach.
Here is Marc doing his national duty as grand poobah of the Puerto Rican Day parade with J.Lo in tow on Saturday in NY City. [via]
Marc Anthony took out a bizarre ad in Variety, declaring his love for J.Lo in the format of a film script:
The ad appeared in Tuesday's daily edition of Variety, which charges $8,000 for a full page ad. The ad was written like a movie script, outlining a scene at an award show, describing Lopez as "the most beautiful woman" and "Lola."
This is our theory, and we have reader Angelika to thank for the insight: something is totally wrong with Marc Anthony. He looks deathly ill, with bags under his eyes and a sunken face. We think he's suffering quietly from an illness and wants to let Lopez know in the most public way possible that he loves her. Doesn't this seem like the type of thing a dying person would do? He says "Here's to never waking up, Baby," in the ad, which could be a dual reference to the dream-like state of love and death. Unless their two year marriage is in trouble, which would be completely uncharacteristic of J.Lo, it seems like the most plausible explanation.
We're oversensationalizing this story, though, because there were three other ads from studios praising J.Lo in that issue of Variety, and Anthony probably just wanted to add his loving regards.

I'm starting to feel sorry for Marc Anthony. Not only is he married to Jennifer Lopez, he also looks like he's suffering from an intestinal disorder or is addicted to heroin. He really needs to take some vitamins and do a liver cleanse. Maybe J.Lo feels sorry for him too, which would explain the record-breaking nearly two year length of her latest marriage. Or she could just be such an ambitious woman that she refuses to give up on Anthony's sperm. She might think that since he already has three children he's got to have it in him to produce one more, even if he looks like he's at death's door.
TMZ quotes a boutique store employee as saying that Lopez still had flat abs when she shopped there with her new friend Leah Remini last week, and The Post Chronicle claims that J.Lo told an insider that the paparrazi are following her constantly because they think she's pregnant. According to a thinly veiled work of fiction about J.Lo, she deliberately tries to get the press to think she's pregnant for publicity purposes.
In these latest photos if her leaving the gym with Leah Remini [via] and at the 2006 Crystal & Lucy Awards, [via] she doesn't look pregnant at all.
Jennifer Garner was offered the role of Pamela Ewing in the upcoming "Dallas" movie, but she decided not to do it after learning that J.Lo had already signed on to the project. Seems like Garner has a healthy fear of her husband's big-bottomed Latina ex:
Garner has a happy relationship and a gorgeous baby with Affleck, the man who put a stop to J.Lo's lavish wedding and gradually dumped her through passive aggressive behavior. Now all J.Lo has is a skeletal husband and a fat stomach that she wears mumus over in an attempt to get people to think it's a baby bump.
It doesn't matter how rich or successful J.Lo is, Garner will always be happier and more content because she's just a genuinely kind, positive person. Judging from her decision to stay away from J.Lo, she has a lot of sense too.
Here's Garner on the set of "Gone Baby Gone," which Ben is directing, on 5/24. [via]
Jennifer Lopez, who may be pregnant finally depending on how much evidence you need, is going to get her own reality show on MTV in which she auditions dancers for an excuse to make a show about their hard knock life:
The 'Jenny From The Block' singer - who originally found fame on US comedy series, 'In Living Colour' - will select and audition dancers to star in a show which follows their constant struggle to get their big break.
She said: "I started out as a dancer, and I know what that world is. These dancers have dedicated their lives to this. It's something they do only out of love.
"It's a tough life, and I want to show that struggle."
I don't know about Lopez's "dancing out of love" comment. Dancers must enjoy it or they wouldn't make it their career, but J.Lo's dancing career was easily abandoned for singing and acting, and it seems like she does it out of pure ambition.
Lopez has somehow avoided a lawsuit for pulling out of her strange handful of tour dates in the Middle East and Eastern Europe. She promised to reimburse concert promoters for costs incurred in preparing for the shows she pulled out of, and they have agreed not to sue her.
She is also quoted as saying that thinking about her ex, Ben Affleck, and his new family makes her depressed.
Jennifer told Britain's Star magazine: "Just raising the subject depresses me."
The Latin beauty - who has made no secret of her desire to have children with husband Marc Anthony - is reportedly pregnant. Lopez is due to give birth around Christmas, a source told America's In Touch magazine.
So far the only source for J.Lo's supposed pregnancy seems to be In Touch magazine. We'll believe it when and if she looks further along.

Jennifer Lopez is being sued by concert promoters for pulling out of her tour of select European and Middle-Eastern cities. They cite the massive costs of promoting her cancelled appearances, along with the cost and effort of catering to her every anticipated whim:
Apart from the star's fee, the organizers of her Bulgarian gig admitted that they had spent about EUR 203,000 on commercials and to satisfy Lopez' many whims. The promoters said they has spent a little over EUR 3,000 on sunflower seeds, chili, aroma candles and mineral water, and then had to double the sum to transport all the supplies from the states.
Now J Lo is facing a trial and all the angry promoters are determined to get their money back. The most disappointing fact, Pick and More admitted, was that the diva didn't give any reason for the cancellation. The short note announcing that the rest of the tour was not to be did not bear any explanation, and many find this unethical...
The Latin star was supposed to hold her concert in Sofia on May 2, as part of the tour promoting her latest album "Rebirth", but she delayed the gig for May 23. Afterwards she cancelled the tour, leaving thousands of disillusioned fans in Mocow, Dubai, Mumbai, Athens, Baku and Thessaloniki.
People are speculating that J.Lo is pregnant since she looked slightly thick around the middle at the Time magazine awards and was sporting grey hair. It doesn't seem likely to us since she's been trying to get pregnant forever. If she is knocked up, she surely had some medical assistance and it seems like someone would have spilled the beans that she was getting fertility treatment.
Also, if she is pregnant it seems early enough in the pregnancy for her to be able to tour without a risk to her health. Her tour in Bulgaria was set to start May 23rd, a little over a week before she cancelled it.
We hope something else is up, because we can't stand J.Lo and don't want to have to report about her pregnancy and birth.

A new chick lit book whilch the author claims is based on celebrity in general, not Jennifer Lopez specifically, is so close to Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony's story that it's not fooling anyone. The author, Alisa Valdes-Rodriguez, has the arrogant J.Lo character cheat on Ben Affleck with Marc Anthony in a bid to boost her career:
She is engaged to "the boyishly handsome and patently non-Hispanic actor and screenwriter Jack Ingroff." Formerly Sanchez dated "a mealy-mouthed" rapper named D-Kitty, until the night "some dudes in his crew" shot another rapper.
"The public seems to have forgotten all about how the gun was found stashed beneath her very own seat in the Escalade limo, or about how she'd worn a bandanna around her head like a gang member..."
Sanchez "in her own estimation, is the sexiest, cleanest woman alive." She's lifted her style of pairing innocence with lust, pretending to be "surprised by her own sexy gyrations," from Britney Spears. Botox and belly lipo are her friends.
Sensitive Ingroff hopes that "some of Jill's cruelty will rub off on him." Sanchez has never learned the name of anyone who works for her. Her clothing line is the product of a team of designers who get no credit. In the recording studio, she's vicious to the very producers who are digitally manufacturing her voice.
In fact, the only time Sanchez delivers an Oscar-worthy performance is when she's pretending to be a professional singer "getting ready to lay down some kick-ass tracks." As if.
Imperious, demanding and dismissive, Sanchez uses humiliation as a motivational tool on her staff. In meetings, no one is allowed to speak directly to her unless she first gives permission.
The lead character periodically puts her hands on her stomach during photocalls to drum up press speculation about her pregnancy status, and tries to train her husband to be more media-savvy and manipulative.
The author, Alisa Valdes-Rodriguez admits that "There are some anecdotes in there based on experiences that I or people I knew had with Jennifer Lopez." No kidding. She also claims that members of J.Lo's staff approached her and told her that the book was dead-on.
That sounds really juicy and it's sure to be a best seller!
Here's her royal highness herself at Time Magazine's 100 Most Influential People party yesterday.
Perhaps Jennifer Lopez has stayed with Marc Anthony for so long because she looks so damn good standing next to him. Hell anyone would look good standing next to this man. If she's having trouble getting pregnant, it's probably due to Marc, since he's so obviously deficient of key nutrients. Maybe he has an intestinal disorder which would explain his foul mood and undernurished appearance.
Lest Angelika accuse us of poor research, Lopez and Anthony attended yesterday's NCLA ALMA awards, which honor "outstanding Latino artistic achievement in television, film, and music and the enhancement of the Latino image in the entertainment industry." The ALMA awards were hosted by Eva Longoria and will be aired Monday night June 5th at 9:30 EST on ABC. They must be right after David Blaine's dumb special.
Anthony was honored for excellence in music:
Our friends at yeeeah point out that Lopez has grey hair, but I'm younger than her and have that problem a few days a month, too, so I shouldn't mock. I also have much less access to professional stylists, so she's fair game: dye your roots, Jen.
Here are J.Lo and Marc Anthony looking serene and scary.
The Costume Institute Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art held a ball last night to celebrate the opening of an exhibit on British design. Sienna Miller, wearing an awful gold sequined minidress and black tights, served as co-chair for the event.
The flamboyant show, made up of themed rooms including a Hunt Ball and a Gentleman’s Club, is the latest example of the city’s growing obsession with all things from across the pond.
Celebrities from the UK including Liz Hurley, Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell put on their glad rags for the lavish event.
The Americans were represented by A-listers including Jennifer Lopez, Sarah Jessica Parker and Richard Gere.
The British-born editor of American Vogue, Anna Wintour, swept in first.
Miller, who teamed her glittering frock with opaque black tights and wore her hair tied back in a simple ponytail, shared the limelight with Christopher Bailey, the creative director of Burberry.
He and Wintour were the starlet’s fellow co-chairs. The fashion house and Vogue publisher Condé Nast have sponsored the exhibition.
The guy dressed like a cabaret pirate posing with Charlize Theron is Dior designer John Galiano. He's responsible for her monstrosity of an Oscar gown with the giant shoulder bow. Sienna Miller is shown with Christopher Bailey, Burberry's creative director.
We have over 100 pictures from the event. Stars and designers attending include Alexander McQueen, Sarah Jessica Parker, Jennifer Lopez, Marc Anthony, John Galliano, Charlize Theron, Lindsay Lohan, Victoria Beckham, Emmy Rossum, Eva Mendes, Gisele Bundchen, Gretchen Mol, Jessica Alba, Josh Hartnett, Lenny Kravitz, Donatella Versace, Rupert Everett, Linda Evangelista and Amber Valetta, Jessica Alba, Marcia Gay Harden, Mary-Kate Olsen, Ashley Olsen, Melania Trump, Donald Trump, Molly Sims, Rosario Dawson, Scarlett Johansson, Stella McCartney, Amanda Peet, Andre Leon Talley, Naomi Campbell, Angela Lindvall, Angie Harmon, Billie Joe Armstrong of Green Day, Bridget Moynahan, Tom Brady, Chloe Sevigny, Ciara, Dita Von Teese and Marliyn Manson, Drew Barrymore, Elizabeth Hurley, Erin O'Connor, Matthew Williamson, Eve, Gina Gershon, Ginnifer Goodwin, Ivana Trump, Jacquetta Wheeler, Jason Lewis, Jessica Stam, John Legend, Johnny Rotten, Josh Lucas, Joy Bryant, Julia Stegner, Iselin Steiro, Karolina Kurkova, Lily Cole, Lauren Bush, Lily Donaldson, Gemma Ward, Liv Tyler, Francisco Costa, Lydia Hearst, Mandy Moore, Minnie Driver, Nick Cannon, Petra Nemcova, Rachel Roy, Damon Dash, Ralph Fiennes, Richard Gere, Cary Lowell, Thandie Newton, Selma Blair, Shalom Harlow, Sienna Miller, Christopher Bailey, designer for Burberry, Zooey Deschanel, Sophie Dahl, Ivanka Trump, Mark Ruffalo, Taye Diggs, Idima Menzel, and Sarah Wynter.
Jennifer Lopez is suing her first ex husband, Ojani Noa, to stop him from coming out with a book about her. Noa signed a confidentiality agreement with Lopez five months ago that stated the he could not malign Lopez or reveal details of their past relationship. Lopez wants to enforce the confidentialy agreement and get a restraining order to block the book's release.
Noa filed a breach of contract lawsuit against Lopez at the end of 2004, claiming he'd been fired unfairly from his manager position at her Pasadena restaurant, Madres. He dropped the suit last November, and must have signed the confidentiality agreement in return for a settlement.
Noa has also tried to blackmail Lopez over the book. He asked for $5 million in return for not releasing it.
The NY Post claims that there are some juicy details in the novel, including the revelation that Lopez cheated on P. Diddy in 1999 wtih Marc Anthony.

Marc Anthony bought a lot of baby girl items over a month ago, and people have been guessing that J.Lo is either pregnant or adopting a child. Now the news is that she's still trying to get pregnant, and is eating a lot of spinach in a bid to increase her fertility:
According to an insider, J.Lo, 36, is still trying to get pregnant and she was advised by her physician to increase her intake of folic acid, a vitamin B complex found in green leafy vegetables. “Jennifer’s eating spinach three times a day,” a pal says.
This actually may work, as I saw a show on BBC last night that featured a fertility expert counselling a couple to eat their vegetables to increase their chances at having a baby.
The problem may lie with Lopez's husband of a record-breaking two years, Marc Anthony. While Lopez looks healthy enough to conceive, Anthony's dark eye circles and skeletal frame may reveal that his sperm is less than motile. He also has a tendency to grab his crotch, and may be deliberately trying to foil Lopez's efforts.
Here is J.Lo out with a friend for lunch this weekend, where she undoubtedly ate her vegetables.

Page Six is reporting that J.Lo's performance in the upcoming film "El Caliente" is Oscar-worthy. They also think it's big news that she fired her diva hairdresser:
It must be such a stretch for J.Lo to play the wife of a Latin singer.
Here are J.Lo and Marc sunbathing, with Marc looking scary and threatening as usual. When are these two going to break up already? There are also silly pictures of Marc taking pictures of the paparrazi. That's so 2003. Pictures [via]

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has produced and distributed an eight-minute how-to video for Oscar nominees. Ratings have declined over the years, and they want to maintain the ceremony's momentum and not lose bored viewers:
This year, though, it has a new gimmick: an eight-minute instructional video, narrated by two-time Best Actor winner Tom Hanks, which it has distributed to each of the 150-odd nominees. A relaxed and wry-looking Hanks guides nominees through the art of handling that speech-making moment "with wit, flair, creativity - or at least with brevity".
Entitled An Insider's Guide: What Nominees Need To Know, the video includes clips of Oscar moments that stuck in the memory - such as Jack Palance doing one-arm push-ups, or Roberto Benigni gliding over the tops of everyone's chairs en route to the stage - and ones that decidedly did not - such as the interminable thank-yous delivered by the crew from Lord of the Rings two years ago, which was about as interesting as a reading from the New Zealand telephone directory. Another bad example was Gwyneth Paltrow's tsunami of tears.
They basically want people to keep it short, avoid lists, and be funny and interesting.
The most awkward Oscar acceptance I remember was Zellweger's 2003 Best Actress speech. She came off as insecure as she thanked everyone, including the lackeys at her agency, for their help. This year, The Academy hopes to placate over-eager winners with a special section of their website where they can post thank you messages.
Here are presenters Jake Gyllenhaal and J.Lo preparing for tonight. Three more after the jump.
