J. Lo Denies Rumors That She Got A Hotel Maid Fired Over Autograph

The J.Lo hotel maid rumor has gotten more and more media attention in just a few days after the maid at a German hotel claimed she was fired for asking Lopez for an autograph.

Pray Dodaj, the now famous J.Lo hotel maid, spoke out against the Latina songstress claiming that she got her fired simply for being a big fan of hers.

“I am an incredibly big fan so I took all my courage and rang the bell to get an autograph,” Dodaj explained. “But I was rejected by two assistants at the door.”

Rumors spread that the maid was soon after fired because Jennifer complained to the hotel about the incident.

“A day later the cleaning company that employed me at the hotel called and said that Ms. Lopez had complained,” the former German hotel housekeeper continued. “I was fired right there on the phone. Because of an autograph.”

The “Dance Again” songstress has been known to have a bit of a feisty personality and is rumored to be a bit demanding, but she still claims that even she wouldn’t dare get a fan fired from their job just because they wanted an autograph.

“C’mon thought you knew me better than this… Would never get anyone fired over an autograph,” the 43-year-old tweeted after hearing about the rumors. “1st I heard of this was on Twitter. #hurtful.”

The mother of two may seem to be acting a bit more oblivious to the entire situation than she really is though as sources close to the curvaceous singer claim there actually was an incident that occurred between J. Lo and the hotel maid.

The sources, however, also claim that things go down the way the former hotel maid claims.

According to reports on TMZ, the J. Lo hotel maid “barged” into the former American Idol judge’s room and had to be removed by security.

Management for the German hotel also promised that nobody was fired over the incident; however, the maid was transferred to work at a different hotel.

 

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
