Jennifer Lopez’s first husband is trying to make a profit off steamy footage of her, but the singer isn’t having it.

Last week, J-Lo filed a lawsuit to stop her ex-husband Oani Noa’s from releasing a film, “How I Married Jennifer Lopez: The JLo and Ojani Noa Story” claiming it violated an confidentiality agreement they signed years back. The film allegedly contains footage of the singer in skimpy clothing and in sexual situations in the hotel room from the former couple’s honeymoon. Lopez is seeking $10 million in damages, as well as a ban on the release of any intimate video of the couple. A judge has granted a temporary restraining order to stop distribution of intimate home video footage.

Noa, a chef and former model was married J-Lo in 1997 but the union only lasted for 11 months. In 2007 Lopez won a lawsuit that stopped Noa from publishing a tell-all book about the former couple’s brief marriage; she also got the last laugh and won $545, 000 for breach of contract. That book allegedly claimed Lopez frequently cheated on Noa, including with her current husband, Marc Anthony.

J-Lo’s ex just wont give up! It’s funny that he’s held onto the footage and information for a decade and is just recently trying to cash in (times must be hard!). Is anyone really still checking for J-Lo like that though?

Los Angeles Superior Court Judge James Calfant will hold another hearing on Dec. 1 to make a final decision on the footage.

It’s real in these streets for celebrity fashion lines! Last month Jennifer Lopez’s clothing line Sweetface went bankrupt and now Kimora Lee Simmon’s line Baby Phat might be headed for the same fate.

The Wall Street Journal reported that Kellwood Co. – an apparel manufacturer who’s brand’s include Baby Phat, Fabulosity, Phat Farm, Vince, and Xoxo, among others – may have to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy if they can’t come up with the money to pay a $140 million bond issue by Wednesday. Kellwood has over $500 million in debt and $800 million in annual sales and according to the report “the twin effects of a heavy debt load and a sharp drop in consumer spending have crushed the company’s financial results.”

Russell Simmons launched Phat Farm clothing in 1992, while his, then wife, model/designer Kimora Lee Simmons, started Baby Phat in 1999. Russell sold Phat Farm and Baby Phat to Kellwood in 2004 for $142 million in cash plus performance incentives (at least he cashed out before the hard times hit!) though Kimora retained her position as “principal creative arbiter” for Baby Phat.

So if it all falls down Kimora (and some 2,000 employees that Kellwood employs) might be out of a job and we may see the end of Baby Phat clothing. You mad?

By now you know that last week seemed to be crotch week in the worlds of pop ‘n B.

Although Def Jam, Bad Boy, and Chris Brown’s camps are handing out cease and desist orders to various gossip blogs who have posted snapshots of those three playing peak a boo on their cell phones — most suspect that none of them have any real legal leg to stand on.

That means there’s no stopping Rihanna’s breasts and Cassie’s crotch from continuing to spread across the net.

But, if it’s any consolation to them, they may not be the only ones with their bodies on blast…

According to Miss Info, there may be more celebrity shots on the way from the likes of Jennifer Lopez, Jamie Foxx, and Christina Milian.

I understand we all have our dirt and that everyone deserves the right to privacy, but if there’s been a longstanding trend of people leaking sex tapes and hacking into cell phones and email accounts of celebrities — why would any star in their right mind set themselves up for failure?

And be honest: After you saw caught sight of Cassie and Rihanna’s goodies, didn’t you think to yourself, “Yeah, let me go delete those photos off my phone?”
