JLo's pre-superfame hubby, Ojani Noa, was planning to publish a tell-all book accusing Jennifer of having several affairs during their marriage, including one with current husband Marc Anthony. But Jen put the smackdown on him, and now she's been awarded nearly $545,000 in a lawsuit over the issue. (Only $200,000 of that is in damages -- the rest is to cover legal and arbitration fees.) Her lawsuit claimed that Noa had violated a previous lawsuit settlement preventing him from revealing private information about their relationship.
This is my favorite part: the arbitrator also decided that Noa should have a permanent injunction preventing him from "criticizing, denigrating, casting in a negative light or otherwise disparaging or causing disparagement" to Jennifer. This is the coolest thing ever. I don't know how she got someone to agree to this, but I would like to take all my ex-boyfriends to this arbitrator. Also: my mom, my high school art teacher and my therapist.
Noa was also directed to give Lopez or her attorney all copies of materials related to the book.
