Lopez MTV Special Sprinkled With Bling

| |
NEW YORK -
Jennifer Lopez (news)
didn't let MTV
delve as deeply
as they do into
the lives of
"Newlyweds"
Jessica Simpson
(news)
and Nick Lachey
(news)
or the Osbourne
family, but she
did let the
cameras capture
her stressing
out over her
sparkly New York
Fashion Week
debut — and one
itty-bitty
tantrum.
"Jennifer Lopez:
Beyond the
Runway," the
hour-long docu-special
that airs
Thursday night
(10 p.m. EST),
is mostly
drama-free.
Unlike the
Osbournes'
screaming
matches or a fit
by Simpson, most
of the conflict
is over bling
and color.
Six months
before the show,
Lopez worries
her designers
won't come up
with enough
looks. They do.
Four months
before the show,
the
singer-actress
worries that
she's going to
embarrass
herself. She
doesn't. Two
hours before the
show, she fears
an atmospheric
fan won't work.
It does.
When reviewing
the first
"looks" for her
new Sweetface
clothing line,
Lopez nixes a
black garment,
saying that she
doesn't "love
the black. It's
not a J.Lo
color." She then
flashes a shiny
smile at the
designer. No
harm done.
Sure, she's
mostly sugar in
the special, but
there's a little
bit of spice,
too. After
peeking at a
pair of
blah-looking
jeans, she tells
her crew "don't
even show it to
me if I can't
change it!" She
threatens to
cancel the
runway show more
than once. And
after a booking
miscommunication
results in
tardiness, Lopez
picks up the
phone and lets
the sass fly.
"Don't let the
receptionist
handle your
responsibilities,"
barks Lopez —
whose new album,
"Rebirth," is
set for release
March 1.
Her husband and
Grammy Award
show duet
partner, Marc
Anthony, makes
only fleeting,
non-speaking
appearances.
Supermodel Naomi
Campbell pops up
as well. But as
the title
states,
"Jennifer Lopez:
Beyond the
Runway" is
definitely all
about J.Lo. |
