LOPEZ FIGHTS TO KEEP EX-HUSBAND QUIET

JENNIFER LOPEZ has filed a lawsuit against her ex-husband OJANI NOA in a bid to show the former model she won't tolerate his plans to reveal all about her personal life in a new book.

In court documents, filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court yesterday (10APR06) and obtained by entertainment news website TMZ.com, Lopez claims Noa demanded $5 million (GBP2.9 million) from her to keep him from selling a tell-all book.

The lawsuit states that Noa sent a letter to Lopez's attorney last year (05), in which the Cuban, a former manager of Lopez's Madre's restaurant in California, "declared his intention to continue to shop his proposed book and to obtain a publisher for the book."

Lopez's attorneys received another letter from Noa earlier this year (06), claiming "he would not agree to refrain from marketing his book unless (Lopez) paid him a sum of $5 million."

The lawsuit claims Noa made statements to the New York Post's Page Six column alleging Lopez had an affair with her current husband MARC ANTHONY while he was still married to DAYANARA TORRES.
