JENNIFER LOPEZ - LOPEZ BAGS BILLIONAIRE'S BLING

LOPEZ BAGS BILLIONAIRE'S BLING

JENNIFER LOPEZ's love seemingly does cost a thing - she received thousands of dollars worth of jewellery for hosting a Hollywood fashion launch.
The singer borrowed $50,000 (£35,700) worth of diamonds from Swiss billionaire Robert Mouawad so she'd shine as she helped host the launch of fashion designer pal Andrea Lieberman's latest line last week (23Feb09).
According to reports, Gwen Stefani, Leah Remini and Ellen Pompeo also borrowed bling, which was all returned the following day - unlike Lopez, who recevied the jewels as a gift from Mr. Mouawad.
And responding to reports the singer demanded to keep the jewellery, the star's spokesperson Benny Medina insists Lopez actually negotiated a deal to bag the entire collection in exchange for her presence.
He tells the New York Post's gossip column Page Six: "There was no demand whatsoever. There was an offer. It was very clear.
"She was the only celebrity whose name was on the invite. She would have done it for nothing. But this was how it was presented. It was quite a generous offer."
