J.LO is not happy over a tabloid rumor that claims the “Dance Again” singer caused the firing of a maid at the luxury hotel Melia Duesseldorf in Germany because she allegedly asked for an autograph. TMZ reports that allegations began when the cleaning lady, Pray Dodaj, spoke to German tabloid Bild about the details of the incident which revealed that she knocked on Lopez’s door for her autograph, but was turned away by two of her employees. Dodaj, was quoted as saying, “I cleaned on her floor. And I am an incredibly big fan so I took all my courage and rang the bell to get an autograph. But I was rejected by two assistants at the door. A day later the cleaning company that employed me at the hotel called and said that Ms. Lopez had complained. I was fired right there on the phone. Because of an autograph,” she says. The director of the German hotel confirmed Dodaj’s termination, saying, “She has acted contrary to the contractual arrangements and disturbed the privacy of our guests.” Lopez denies the allegations and took to Twitter to express her thoughts on the matter. “C’mon thought you knew me better than this. Would never get anyone fired over an autograph. 1st I heard of this was on twitter. #hurtful,” she wrote on her Twitter account on Monday. Now TMZ says that according to sources, an incident involving a maid did take place but it had nothing to do with an autograph but with a maid who “barged” into Lopez’s room without notice and Lopez’s security team immediately told her to leave, out of concern for J.LO. Someone from Lopez’s camp told TMZ that J.LO goes out of her way for her fans. “Jennifer always goes out of her way to meet and greet fans as evidenced by her recent tweet to meet engagements backstage, as well as stopping to sign autographs and say hello to hotel staff,” the rep told TMZ. As for the maid involved in the incident, TMZ says the hotel assured them she was not fired but was relocated to another location.
