Jennifer Lopez drew stunned gasps from preview audiences at screenings of her new movie GIGLI - when she broke into an extended celebration of her vagina.

The New York native, who stars in the critically-panned flick alongside her fiance Ben Affleck, plays a lesbian gangster called RICKI who attracts the attentions of Affleck's LARRY GIGLI.

And while Gigli unconvincingly attempts to explain to Ricki why she should be a penis-loving heterosexual, J.LO's character hits back with a long tirade about the beauty of the female sex organ.

Audiences gasped as a scantily-clad Lopez, writhing around on a yoga mat, likened the male organ to a toe or sea slug in attractiveness. She then went on to brand her "p**sy" "warm" and "sensual" in its resemblance to lips.

One moviegoer, EMMA WILLIAMS, said after a Los Angeles screening, "I know she's only playing a character, but I have to admit I was pretty shocked with some of the stuff that came out of her mouth. I'm not easily shocked, but it was foul."

The movie will hit American screen on Friday (01AUG03).
