Los Angeles. – Jennifer Lopez has reportedly quit ‘The 33’ – a film based on the trapped Chilean miners in 2010 – because bosses refused to rule out casting stars who were prettier than her. The 44-year-old star is said to have dropped out after bosses wouldn’t agree to cut people for being “too sexy’’.
A source told the Daily Star newspaper: “J-Lo kept going through the hundreds of casting photos and whenever she spotted a female who looked too sexy she would slash a big, black X across their face.’’
The singer and actress has a reputation as a demanding star, but in the past she has hit back at claims she is a diva.
She previously said: “I think people love to look at them (riders) and go, ‘Oh my God she wants M&M’S . . . she’s crazy!’ I think everyone has their list of things that make you feel comfortable . . . like a certain kind of potato chip or water. I think the crazy ones are made up.’’
Jennifer has even admitted she felt “insecure’’ about her career, taking a while to accept that she deserved her success.
She claimed: “I was always so insecure.
Then I grew, little by little, and realised, wait a minute, this is not a fluke. I’m not a mistake – I work my ass off. And I know what I’m doing.’’ – Sowetan.
