She's Still Jenny From The Block

Remember when Jennifer Lopez pulled out of guest judging the Project Runway finale (leaving Tim Gunn to come to the rescue) after suffering a foot injury? And then two days later she participated in a triathlon? Someone looked into it, and it turns out that "foot injury" was all a sham (allegedly).

Apparently J.Lo was upset at The Weinstein Company (which produces PR) because it failed to offer her a part in an upcoming Weinstein film. She was told Thursday, the day before the PR finale filmed, that she would not be getting the part. Voila! Jennifer got a foot injury and was forced to pull out, much to host Heidi Klum's dismay: "Heidi went from one big-name judge for the finale to none," said a source. "It was embarrassing, especially the excuse that [Lopez] was hurt." Maybe we're crazy, but we'd pick Tim Gunn over Jennifer Lopez any day. Project Runway is better off.

Oh, and for the record, J.Lo's rep denied the allegations (of course).

The best part she ever had in her entire career was as a Flygirl or In Living Color.

No. 12 dancer says:

Would someone explain to me why she isn't even breaking a sweat? Just like Katie Holmes after the marathon. They both looked clean, unsweaty, put together etc. If you look at others they sweat, their hair loosens from the ties, and they generally look like they ran that marathon or triathlon. What, she has a make up artist at the finish line or something?

dancer–there is a scientology connection to that. holmes is obvious but JLo's father drinks the kool aid and so does her best friend (Leah Remini)
