Jennifer Lopez is being sued by an education group in Morocco for 'disturbing public order and tarnishing women's honour and respect'. Lol. What did JLo do in particular? She shook her legendary butt during a performance on stage in Morocco on May 29th and it was broadcast on public TV.
The group said JLo's costume was too skimpy and inappropriate, the dancing was too sexy, and she and her dancers were shaking their ass on TV. They said all that was too immoral to be shown on TV and now are suing JLo and the promoter of the concert. This is actually sort-of a crime in Morocco, 'disturbing public order'. If found guilty, JLo faces up 1 month to 2 years in prison. Lol. But I'm sure no Moroccan court will bother with this case

Pope Francis has celebrated Mass in front of tens of thousands of Catholics at a stadium in Bosnia-Herzegovina.
The pontiff's visit to the capital, Sarajevo, is aimed at promoting peace and reconciliation across the country.
The Pope is also meeting members of the Muslim, Orthodox Christian and Jewish communities during his one-day trip.
Bosnia remains divided along religious and ethnic lines, 20 years after its civil war which depleted the Catholic population.
"War never again!" Pope Francis urged in his homily before 65,000 worshippers at Sarajevo's Kosevo stadium.
"War means children, women and the elderly in refugee camps; it means forced displacement, destroyed houses, streets and factories. Above all countless shattered lives," he said.
"You know this well having experienced it here," he added in reference to the 1992-95 Bosnian conflict, which left some 100,000 dead and two million displaced.
More than 60,000 people converged on the stadiumThe Pope was met on arrival by government leadersA bullet-scared cross was on display at the stadium
The Pontiff also warned that the world faced "a kind of third world war being fought piecemeal and, in the context of global communications, we sense an atmosphere of war".
Ethnic divisions
The war between Christian Orthodox Serbs and Muslim Bosniaks in the early 90s resulted in deep ethnic divisions. There was also a Bosniak-Croat conflict within the wider war.
Bosnia-Herzegovina's Catholics, from the Bosnian Croatian community, are estimated to number 10-15% of the population.
Vatican Secretary of State Pietro Parolin said a central aspect of the visit would be boosting the morale of Catholics, many of whom left the country after the conflict.
"In December the 20th anniversary of the war will be remembered but the traces and the wounds of war are still there," he told AFP news agency.
The Pope was welcomed in Sarajevo by children wearing traditional costume representing Bosnia-Herzegovina's three main faiths.
He also spoke to the three-member presidency and called on the country to reject division and continue working for peace to create "a melody of sublime nobility and beauty, instead of the fanatical cries of hatred".
Speaking to reporters on his flight to Sarajevo, he described Sarajevo as the "Jerusalem of the West".
"It is a city of very different ethnic and religious cultures. It is even a city that has suffered much during its history. Now it is on a beautiful path of peace. I am making this trip to talk about this, as a sign of peace and a prayer for peace."
At least 5,000 police are on duty and authorities have published a helpline number if members of the public spot any suspicious activity during the visit.
On Friday local media reported jihadists claiming to be from Islamic State had issued a video, calling for action in the Balkans. However, it is not thought to be linked to the papal visit.
It is 18 years since Pope John Paul II travelled to Sarajevo during a severe snowstorm in 1997. A monument was erected in his honour in 2014.
Mali battled to a draw against Uruguay on Saturday to ensure both teams went through to the final 16 of the Fifa Under 20 World Cup in New Zealand.
Mali and Uruguay drew 1-1 to finish joint second in Group D with identical points and goal tallies.
After a drawing of lots to separate the two, Uruguay were awarded second place with Mali going through as one of the best third-placed teams
Senegal kept their hopes alive with a 2-1 win over Qatar in Group C.
With so much at stake, the match between Mali and Uruguay was always going to be tight, and Uruguay scored first through a delicate first half goal from Franco Acosta who, with his back to the net, deflected the ball past the goalkeeper.
Mali levelled just before the break with an Adama Traore free-kick that found the bottom corner of the net and set up an uneventful second half with both sides playing not to lose rather than to win.
All four sides in Group D had started the final pool round locked on three points with Serbia coming through with a 2-0 win over Mexico to earn top spot and send the Central Americans home.
Colombia, who lost 3-1 to Group C leaders Portugal, sneaked into the last 16 on goal difference ahead of Senegal who have a nerve-wracking wait to see if they too will be among the best third-placed teams.
Senegal came from a goal down after a lethargic first half to beat Qatar 2-1 and at least give themselves hope of advancing.
Qatar's Akram Afif converted a penalty in the 17th minute after Almoez Ali was brought down. Stand-in Senegal captain Alassane Sylla equalised in the 76th minute and Moussa Kone, after threatening on several occasions, scored the winner five minutes later.
Senegal needed another goal to have a chance of ousting Colombia from second place and almost scored but Mamadou Ndiaye's long-range shot went just wide of the post.
"It was a very difficult match,'' Senegal coach Joseph Koto told reporters.
"Both teams wanted to win and a draw was no good for either side.
"Before the game we knew that even by taking three points it'd very difficult to qualify, so we handled the situation we were in very well.
"The penalty gave us a big shock and we tried to level the game too quickly, which is not the way we should have gone about it."
Senegal's win over Qatar meant they finished third with a -2 goal difference and an anxious wait until the end of pool play on Sunday to see if they will make the Round of 16.
Senegal's poor goal difference confirmed hosts New Zealand will make the knockout phase from Group A as one of the best third-placed sides.

Saudi Arabia has shot down a Scud missile fired from across the border by Yemen's Houthi rebels and its allies, the state Saudi Press Agency says.
It was intercepted by a Patriot missile battery near the south-western city of Khamis Mushait in the morning.
On Friday, four Saudi soldiers and many Yemeni rebels died in fighting on the border, the Saudi-led coalition says.
It says forces loyal to Yemen's former president, backed by the Houthis, attacked several Saudi positions.
In a separate development, the Houthis have agreed to attend peace talks in Geneva.
The UN-brokered meeting on 14 June in Switzerland is aimed at ending weeks of war that has claimed more than 2,000 lives.
"We accepted the invitation of the United Nations to go to the negotiating table in Geneva without preconditions," Daifallah al-Shami, a senior member of the rebels' political wing told AFP. Yemen's government, which is operating from Riyadh, also said it would attend. Ground attack A Saudi-led coalition has been bombing rebel positions in Yemen for 10 weeks, in support of the country's exiled president Abdrabbuh Mansour Hadi. The Houthis overran the capital Sanaa last September and have gone on to seize most of the country. map Although there have been previous border skirmishes and deadly rebel fire against Saudi Arabia, Friday's battle is only the second major ground attack reported against Saudi territory. The rebels "aimed to penetrate our borders", and were eventually repelled, the Saudi statement added. The humanitarian crisis in Yemen has been described as "catastrophic" by the UN with 20 million civilians - 80% of the population - in need of aid. At least 21 people have died during violence since Thursday in the Aden area, while there were intense coalition air raids against Daleh and Shabwa provinces.
