Shah Rukh Khan's company denies leaking Jennifer Lopez 'diva demands'

Shah Rukh Khan's production company Red Chillies has denied that it was behind a leaked story about Jennifer Lopez.

The singer reportedly cancelled her appearance at the opening ceremony of the Indian Premier League tomorrow, while other reports alleged that her 'diva demands' priced her out of the gig.

Jennifer Lopez arrives for Muhammad Ali's Celebrity Fight Night in Phoenix, Arizona.

An insider at Red Chillies told Mumbai Mirror: "Kolkata Knight Riders were handling the quotes - money and budgets - so the leak had come from them.

"You will see some of the foreign tabloids point to an IPL official for the leak. The event management team at Red Chillies wouldn't dare do that."

A separate source at the company added: "It is true Jennifer cancelled the gig at the last moment be! cause she didn't like the deal. That she asked for a private chartered plane is, however, not true.

"Yes, she had asked for exclusive arrangements to be made for her nearly 44 dancers and accompanying staff, which included her entourage of around 20 people.

"She had asked for a personal chef, stylist, butler, security, etc but these are demands that even Bollywood stars make when they perform abroad. Jennifer is extremely upset with the way things have panned out. There is an exchange of mails going on as we speak."
