LONDON (Reuters) - American actress and singer Jennifer Lopez used six limousines to travel from one exclusive London hotel to another equally upscale hotel -- a distance of about 100 yards, British newspapers reported on Friday.
The Daily Mail said onlookers were dumbstruck as the singer and her 30-strong entourage spent 15 minutes clambering into the vehicles for the short trip along swanky Park Lane between the Metropolitan Hotel and the Dorchester hotel.
``No one could understand why they didn't just walk,'' the newspaper quoted one hotel guest as saying.
Lopez has attracted widespread coverage since arriving in Britain earlier this week to promote her new film ``Maid in Manhattan.''
Newspapers have been full of stories about the 32-year-old booking 14 suites at the Metropolitan Hotel for $14,000 a night to house her team, reported to include dieticians and make-up artists.
Lopez has previously said media stories about her acting like a prima donna are exaggerated.

I don't know whether the stupidity is intentional or unintentional.

``No one could understand why they didn't just walk,'' the newspaper quoted one hotel guest as saying. Because walking wouldn't have made the news.

She's still just plain ol' "Jenny from the Block," tho.
