"Here, this is my world. This place inspires me to be tougher, to stay
sharper, to think faster. They may be just streets to you but to me,
they're a playground."
So says Jennifer Lopez's breathy voiceover in her new Fiat commercial
endorsement spots -- and it appears that "playground" is right.
According to The Smoking Gun, Lopez's pictured Fiat jaunt through the
streets of her old Bronx neighborhood is a sham. Lopez reportedly never
actually made it to the New York borough to film the commercial which
urges viewers to get back to their roots.

Sources allege to The Smoking Gun that instead of traveling to the Bronx
to shoot the driving scenes, a body double was used for shots that could
not be recreated in Los Angeles. Lopez filmed the majority of the
commercial in the sunny state where footage was compiled so that it
appeared as though the 42-year-old songstress took a soul searching trip
back to her old stomping grounds -- a trip that Lopez reportedly would
not take for her multimillion dollar deal with the Italian car company.
Although, "Jenny from the Block" did hawk her product at the 2011
American Music Awards, performing her new song "Until It Beats No More"
on-stage inside a Fiat 500.

Lopez's latest auto snafu isn't the only thing that will be raising a
few fan eyebrows. The singer's reported new flame, 24-year-old backup
dancer Casper Smart, may be facing jail time for drag racing in Los
Angeles last year, according to In Touch. His fate will be decided at a
January court hearing.

It looks like both Lopez and Smart should stay away from automobiles in
general until things cool down.

Click through to The Smoking Gun for all of the details behind Lopez's
phony commercial.

If it weren't for the fact Fiat control's Chrysler's fate, I'd urge N.
Americans to boycott them.
