J.Lo Out of the South Beach Heat

Jennifer Lopez is no longer on the hook for a show that no longer exists that briefly aired on a network that no longer exists. A show, her lawyer says, she actually had barely anything to do with.
Citing a lack of evidence to bring the case to trial, a federal judge has thrown out a lawsuit brought against the actress and CBS Television by a writer who claimed J.Lo and her fellow producers stole his idea for a show that eventually became the UPN series South Beach.
U.S. District Judge Richard Berman said there was "in fact...powerful evidence" that the defendants created the fish-out-of-water show about two Brooklyn buddies who move to the Miami Beach hotspot.
Lopez's attorney had argued in a response to the suit that his client really had very little to do with the creation and development of the series and was only brought onboard at a later date to add star power to the project.
Who knew that sort of thing went on in Hollywood?!
