Rosie Perez Takes Credit Where Credit Should Be Avoided

Rosie Perez is taking credit for discovering Jennifer Lopez and giving her to the world. Um, why? No idea, but maybe she’s just trying to remain relevant.

Rosie Perez is taking credit for discovering Jennifer Lopez when the fly girl on “In Living Color” was just Jenny from the block. In the November issue of Out magazine, Perez told Michael Musto, “I’m the one that hired Jennifer Lopez, even though she tells everyone Keenan Ivory Wayans was. He didn’t want her because she was overweight and didn’t dance well, but I said, ‘She has star quality.’ “

I’m so thankful that Rosie could see past the big ass and poor moves to bestow us the gift of J.Lo. Sweet. But why are you proud of this? I think we all could have done without Gigli, Monster-in-Law, and Anaconda.
