So according to Reuters, multi-hyphenate husband collector Jennifer Lopez has just today won roughly $545,000 in the
arbitration of a lawsuit against her first husband over his plans to
publish a tell-all book about the star. Lopez was awarded $200,000 in damages for breach of contract,
$300,000 in attorneys’ fees and nearly $48,000 in arbitration costs. Noa’s
plans for a book were revealed in a January 2006 article in the New
York Post describing the proposed expose as a 12-chapter “tell-all
manuscript” under the title: The Unknown Truth: A Passionate Portrait
of a Serial Thriller. Noa, a restaurant and nightclub manager,
then offered not to publish the book if Lopez paid him $5 million, according
to Lopez’s suit.
Lopez should be financially set, of course, but bank is bank, and worth celebrating… even a paltry $200,000. And perhaps this will help console she and new husband Marc
Anthony over the reviews of their new film, El Cantante.
