Pop diva Jennifer Lopez proudly sings how she is 'Jenny from the Block' but a new UK Television Documentary brings the story tumbling down.

It reveals that she comes from a smart (posh) New York suburb, had a private education and experienced nothing of the tough urban upbringing she likes to protray to her admiring fans.

In it J-Lo--who just bought a 10 million dollar island hideaway with fiancee Ben Affleck-sang about the girl who 'used to have a little and now has a lot.'

Photographer Tony Duran says: 'I remember the first day I met her,. She told me, 'If you don't ask for the best or demand the best I'd be sitting here with a B-rate photographer, the worst makeup person, and I'd be just another Spanish chick trying to make her way'

Another voice from the past on the programme reckons Hispanic J-Lo is totally rejecting her roots. She says: 'Everything apart from her *ss is getting progressively whiter.'

As Tom Daschle would say I am shocked and stunned by this news!

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

She should have married Vanilla Ice.

[ewing]

Almost as plausible as marrying AFFLACK..

[SpyGuy]

No news here...just another fake hollywood idiot. Now please move along...

[Hildy]

Who cares? She's the products of our crazy celebrity obsessed culture. She of minimal talent, above average looks and great PR backup. There's a few in every generation, and she's it right now. But again, WHO CARES?

[AgentEcho]

Am I the only one doesn't find her attractive at all?

Æ

[ewing]

I dont think her PR flacks are doing quite the job she is paying them for..

[Catspaw]

Hildy, I couldn't agree with you more.

WHO CARES?

[Johnny Gage]

Almost as plausible as marrying AFFLACK..

Here's a picture of the happy couple:

[ewing]

She does have one positive attribute, though

[Mr. K]

J-LO must not be Liberal enough. Otherwise they would not be wasting time with stories like this. I don't care where she came from, she was poor and raised herself up through her own hard work. This sounds like sour grapes if I ever heard it.

[MotleyGirl70]

She is a flamer...but she is beautiful and sexy. How much would it cost me to get an ass like that? Why did she marry such a loser. Ben Affleck...give me a break. This is her third husband and she is my age. I dated my husband longer than all of her "marriages" put together.

Mmmmm Hollyweird must know something I don't.

Baby "got much" back.

[ewing]

Its all the stories coming out how she rides limos 100ft too her hotel..the press is out to get her now

[ewing]

It is kind of refreshing normal to see someone with a regular figure doing movies, I give her credit for that

[glory]

I agree with you there--I think in that pic you posted you could mistake her for starlets in the 40's and 50's.

[MotleyGirl70]

She has beyond a "regular figure"...she has THE BODY! Women (like me) wish we had such a body! She is more perfect than V.S. models.

Us guys appreciate it too!
