I heard that J-Lo and Mariah Carey are beefing. I missed the tail end but I heard they are beefings for some reason or another. Did anyone else here this on the Russ Parr Morning Show this morning 1/16/01?

Here is the article from
www.etonline.com explaining the beef between Mariah and J Lo.
Clash of the Sexpots!
September 04, 2001
MARIAH CAREY didn't hold back about rival JENNIFER LOPEZ when Allure magazine reporter VANESSA GRIGORIADIS sat down with her earlier in the summer (pre-breakdown) for a candid chat. In October's Talk magazine, Vanessa shares her experience -- and some interesting Mariah moments -- from their meeting.
The background on the girls' feud is that J.Lo is signed to Sony records, Mariah's former label, which also happens to be run by her former husband, TOMMY MOTTOLA. Rumor has it that Tommy has taken sexy J.Lo under his wing and is working the same magic for Jen's career that he did for Mariah back in her Sony days.
When an interview with Lopez was mentioned by Grigoriadis, Mariah commented (sarcastically), "I bet it was really intellectually stimulating ... I bet you could just see the depth in her eyes, she was so soulful."
She also took jabs about current chart-topper J.Lo's singing ability, reacting to Jennifer's comments that she gets eight hours of sleep per night, "If I had the luxury of not actually having to sing my own songs, I'd do that too."
Shortly after the interview, Mariah had her famous "mental and physical breakdown" (So maybe Jennifer can take that into account!). For more on the Mariah and Jennifer rivalry check out the October issue of Talk magazine for the full story.
