Jennifer Lopez has called off her wedding to Ben Affleck after a row with his best friend, Matt Damon. The Latino singer was furious when Matt tried to talk him out of it, claiming she was a “serial bride”.

J Lo, who cancelled plans to tie the knot on St Valentine’s Day, reportedly warned Ben “It’s me or him”.

She told friends “I always feel like there has been three of us in this relationship. He loves Matt loads and he treasures what Matt thinks a lot too.”

The row flared when Matt reminded Ben that J Lo had already been married twice and might be on her way to being another Elizabeth Taylor, what with both of her marriages collapsing quickly. He also hates the way J Lo has made Ben look like a Latino in her music video.A source told the papers “This feud with Matt caused such bad feelings that Ben and Jennifer have decided not to go ahead with the wedding. They still love each other and want to get married someday, but the Valentine’s Day ceremony isn’t go to happen anytime soon.”

“He’s not into this stuff like make-up, blushers, lipsticks et cetera, so I always try to go cosmetic shopping without him.”

“He joins me sometimes but he just stands around and points and says that some colour or shade will look fabulous on me.”

Meanwhile, ‘Charmbracelet’ seems to be doing fine, what with celebrities like RuPaul, India.Arie, Erika Christensen, Jennifer Love Hewitt and more loving the album.For instance, RuPaul wrote on his weblog for Tuesday, the 9th of December and said that he had already bought a copy Mariah Carey’s brand new ‘Charmbracelet’.

He said “I have already bought Mariah’s new album. I loved the songs ‘Clown’, ‘My Saving Grace’, ‘Yours’, ‘I Only Wanted’, ‘Bringing On The Heartbreak’ and ‘Through The Rain’.”

“I’m sure I will love all the other songs in time, as well. My only criticism is that I think she uses her breathy head voice too much.”

Singer of the Michael Jackson-esque ‘Like I Love You’ and the latest ‘Cry Me A River’ that’s not supposed to be about Britney, Justin Timberlake recently let slip that he has a fetish for women wearing boy/men’s underwear.

Justin recently confessed, “I love mens underwear. They’re getting lovelier and I find it’s really sexy when girls wear us boys’ underpants.”

Meanwhile, he is in trouble with Britney’s family for causing them grief by always dropping Britney’s name and trying to cash in on their messy split by constantly talking about it to the press at all times.

“He’s not very popular with the family now and I don’t think he will ever be. Us all are really hurt by Justin’s treachery. Absolutely no regard for our feelings and Britney’s. We hate his guts. We turn the TV set off when he comes on. See, we treated him like family and he had to go do this. He’s such a jerk. Stop hurting my sister.” Britney’s brother, Brian, revealed.
