No Rock And Roll Fun

J-LO DROPS 'EM: So, Jennifer Lopez has dropped her lawsuit against the people who claimed to have a video of her having (probably wonderfully choreographed) sex. Apparently, her lawyer is now saying that they didn't know if the people involved had a video of her or not, and they just wanted to have a lawsuit on file in case they needed to have one in a hurry. It's not clear what the lawsuit was - defamation? copyright? - and the terms of the settlement are confidential, but the whole episode sounds like there's something out there that the Lopez camp is afraid of hitting the web. Cause if they were certain there was no tape, wouldn't they have just let the case trundle to court, whereupon the defendants would have been forced to show their hand as empty?
Still, what it all adds up to is that Lopez is rapidly becoming the Streisand of our time - a lightning rod for all the contempt hurled at our poor celebs. Scarcely a day goes by when a story doesn't turn up about her being difficult, or having a smelly dressing room, or whatever. Of course, being incredibly rich probably compensates. We quite like that Ja Rule remix thing, too, and her strange little dance where she sticks her hand out and jerks her head twice, from the other shoulder.
