Jennifer Lopez filed suit in Los Angeles Monday claiming her ex-husband threatened to write a book about her if she did not pay him $5 million.

Ojani Noa is his name and dishin’ dirt is his game. He apparently contacted J-Lo’s lawyer in 2005 to let them know he was shopping for a publisher for his tell-all tale, unless, of course, J-Lo was willing to negotiate. The rat bastard!

About a year later, he contacted them again stating he would not stop the marketing of his new book unless Jenn was willing to fork over a cool $5Million.

So, Jenn did what any woman would do to save her self - she counter sued.

According to the court documents the lawsuit states:

“OK, let’s face it we can negociate [sic] something, but I’m not stopping my life because of her, I already did many times, and is [sic] not gonna happen again, she may want me to stay quite [sic], and not talk about her it [sic] all in the Book, I’ll be more happy to do do, if we can come to an agreement…”

The lawsuit J-Lo filed also goes after Noa for making false statements to NY Posts’ infamous Page Six alleging “[Lopez] flew [Noa] to Brazil to the set of ‘Anaconda’ to celebrate his 23rd birthday, and unbeknownst to him, Lopez was also seeing a castmate and that [Lopez] had an affair with Marc Anthony while he was still married to Dayanara Torres (in 1999).”
