Singer-actress Jennifer Lopez has reportedly quit 'The 33', a film based on the trapped Chilean miners, because bosses refused to rule out casting stars who were prettier than her.
The 44-year-old star is said to have dropped out of the movie after bosses wouldn't agree to cut people for being "too sexy", reported Daily Star.
"J-Lo kept going through the hundreds of casting photos and whenever she spotted a female who looked too sexy she'd slash a big, black X across their face," a source said.
Lopez has a reputation of being a demanding star, but in the past she has hit back at claims that she is a diva.
"I think people love to look at them (riders) and go, 'Oh my God she wants M&M'S... She's crazy!' I think everyone has their list of things that make you feel comfortable... Like a certain kind of potato chip or water. I think the crazy ones are made up," she had earlier said.
