Also, two media files have been removed from the site (mostly because of excessive direct linking):

Both of these files have been on the web site way long enough so that everyone should have them by now anyway.

JENNIFER LOPEZ’s sister insists fame hasn’t changed the superstar singer, she just spends more money at Christmas.

J.Lo is oft portrayed as a demanding diva, but TV presenter LYNDA LOPEZ - who works for American network E!, claims the star really is still “Jenny from the block”.

Lynda says, “When Jennifer comes back to the family, she’s still my same older sister. Only now the presents are more expensive.”

A dress worn by DESTINY’S CHILD, a poster signed by JENNIFER LOPEZ and a guitar signed by WYCLEF JEAN are being auctioned by MTV to raise cash for hurricane victims in the Caribbean.

Seventy-five per cent of proceeds from the CARIBBEAN RELIEF AUCTION will go to AMERICAN RED CROSS efforts in Haiti, Grenada and the Cayman Islands. The auction runs until tomorrow (20DEC04).

Other items include a poster signed by BRITNEY SPEARS and a travel package to Grenada.

Jean, a native of Haiti, says, “I think fans pay attention. They are aware of the situation and want to do what they can to contribute.” Tropical Storm Jeanne and Hurricane Ivan left a trail of destruction when they hit the islands in September (04) in one of the Caribbean’s worst storm seasons in recent history.

GIGLI, the monumental flop movie which brought former couple JENNIFER LOPEZ and BEN AFFLECK together, is caught up in the midst of a personal injury lawsuit.

A woman is suing the producers of the film for damages resulting from alleged personal injury, which she says occurred near the Santa Monica, California, set.

In the suit filed on 9 December (04), ETHEL HIGLEY claims she fell after being “temporarily blinded” by sun reflectors, purportedly set up by the film-makers so the paparazzi wouldn’t be able to get shots of Lopez and Affleck kissing between scenes.

Higley says she has been unable to work, and sustained “pain and suffering” as a result of the alleged incident.

Spokespeople for REVOLUTION STUDIOS say they are unable to comment on the suit.

JENNIFER LOPEZ has joined a campaign against bullying - and urges victims to “tell someone”.

The Latina beauty, 35, has been photographed wearing a blue rubber band round her wrist to raise awareness for the BEAT BULLYING campaign - and is keen for young people to confide in a friend if they’re experiencing a hard time from bullies.

Lopez says, “If anyone’s being bullied, don’t be afraid to tell someone.”

Rapper NAS is so furious 50 CENT attacked his duet with Latina beauty JENNIFER LOPEZ, he’s threatened to destroy the hip-hop star’s career.

The IF I RULED THE WORLD star complains 50 Cent was like a brother to him until they fell out over Nas’ remix of Lopez’s I’M GONNA BE ALRIGHT, which 50 Cent claimed was a cheap attempt to outdo his version of the same song.

Nas explains, “50 has been saying some s**t since he came out in 2002. He said I did a song with Jennifer Lopez and I wasn’t supposed to because he did a song with her.

“So he’s like a kid living in a hip-hop fantasy world. J.Lo is a friend of mine, if she wants to do a record, I’m doing a record with her.

“50 was like a little brother to me. But 50 need realise the last n**ger who went after me retired, and he’s on an R+B tour now. Think about that.”

Latina beauty JENNIFER LOPEZ has reportedly banned her husband MARC ANTHONY from wearing tight underpants - because she fears it will threaten his chances of fathering a child with her.

Friends claim the JENNY FROM THE BLOCK star has forced Anthony, whom she secretly married in June (04), to wear boxer shorts because research suggests closely fitting underwear can reduce a man’s sperm count.

An insider tells British newspaper the DAILY STAR, “She binned them and bought him 50 pairs of boxer shorts instead.”

Rebirth blasts off on New Year’s Eve when MTV gives the first sneak peak of the video for first single “Get Right” (produced by Rich Harrison). Then, after AOL’s “First Listen” on January 2nd, “Get Right” will be on radio airwaves everywhere! Fans will be able to purchase the single at their favorite online music store starting January 3rd. On January 4th, Jennifer will log on to MSN.com for a worldwide online chat at 7PM ET. On Wednesday, January 5th, MTV will premiere the Making the Video episode. The video in its entirety will air on MTV’s TRL, BET and FUSE on January 6th. Also on January 6th, Yahoo! Launch will online premiere the full-length “Get Right” video.

Recorded over the last year, Rebirth was co-Executive Produced by Jennifer’s longtime producing partner Corey Rooney. Other guests on the album include Fat Joe, Marc Anthony and Fabolous who joins Jennifer on a special version of “Get Right”. Other song titles include “Hold You Down”, “Step Into My World”, “Still Around” and “Cherry Pie”.

Rebirth arrives on March 1.

JENNIFER LOPEZ is giving her American fans a New Year’s gift by premiering her new video, GET RIGHT, on 6 January (05).

The single - the first from her new album REBIRTH - will be played on MTV as Americans celebrate New Year’s Eve (31DEC04), but J.Lo fans will have to wait another week to see something new.

Meanwhile, the album - the follow-up to 2002’s THIS IS ME… THEN will feature rappers FABOLOUS and FAT JOE and Lopez’s husband MARC ANTHONY.

Teen star LINDSAY LOHAN has given the gossips something to buzz about - she was trying on engagement rings at HARRY WINSTON’S Jewellers in New York on Thursday (09DEC04).

The actress is rumoured to be dating a UCLA college student in Los Angeles after splitting from actor WILMER VALDERRAMA in October (04) - but Winston bosses insist she wasn’t really looking for a proposal as she picked out a ring.

Winston staffer JIM HAAG says, “One of the first things Lindsay said was I love JENNIFER LOPEZ… and I love the pink diamond she got from Harry Winston and I want a pink diamond just like it.”

Lohan tried on a $1.5 million (GBP789,470) oval diamond and left with some donated gems that she planned to wear to this weekend’s JINGLE BALL event in New York.

I always find SPONGE BOB a good role model for my daughter because he’s yellow and square and doesn’t have a waist at all. I think it’s a little bit different now from when I was a teenager and I do credit JENNIFER LOPEZ with having changed things for women.” British actress KATE BECKINSALE on her idols.

JENNIFER LOPEZ has signed up to produce a soap opera about one of her favourite hot-spots - South Beach, Miami.

Although Lopez doesn’t plan to star in the series, which will air on American network UPN, she will serve as one of the executive producers of the show.

The New York native previously developed a sitcom based on her experiences of growing up in the Bronx.

JENNIFER LOPEZ took a huge paycut to star in forthcoming drama AN UNFINISHED LIFE after a string of flop films reduced her asking price.

J.Lo’s breakout films SELENA and OUT OF SIGHT in the late 1990s received critical praise, but her movies over the past four years have failed to wow film critics.

Her salary rose to $12 million (GBP6.6 million) for role in ill-fated crime caper GIGLI opposite her former fiance BEN AFFLECK, but after a row of box office misses with ANGELS EYES, ENOUGH and JERSEY GIRL, Lopez is not in such hot demand.

A source from her latest movie An Unfinished Life, tells American newspaper NEW YORK DAILY NEWS Lopez accepted the modest $4 million (GBP2.2 million) salary because “she felt the role would prove she could act”.

Superstar JENNIFER LOPEZ reportedly walked out of her album launch party in Stockholm, Sweden, earlier this week (06DEC04) after being heckled by drunks.

The JENNY FROM THE BLOCK singer had sung two songs at the bash, to promote her upcoming disc REBIRTH, when she asked the two noisy men to quieten down.

When they ignored her pleas she swiftly marched off stage with husband MARC ANTHONY in tow.

JENNIFER LOPEZ will put her luxurious lifestyle to one side this Christmas and help homeless people in her native New York city.

The BABY, I LOVE YOU singer has already told husband MARC ANTHONY she will be working in homeless shelters in the Bronx on 25 December (04).

An insider says, “Jen will be taking basic gifts with her and is planning to sing a selection of her favourite songs.”
