As Jennifer Lopez is apparently learning , it ’s hard to be a social influencer .
TMZandVarietyare both report that J.Lo ( who will always be “ Jenny From the Block ” in my heart ) has been sued for conk out to sufficiently advance a hoverboard trade name on Instagram and Twitter .
According to the outlets , Sidekick Group Corp take that it give Lopez 42 custom hoverboards back in 2015 to use in her Planet Hollywood show in Las Vegas . In substitution for those hoverboards , Lopez was theorize to promote the product on Instagram or on Twitter . The company — whose ownwebsite is downandsocial channelshave been saturnine since March 2016 — claims she did n’t fulfill her obligation . And now it need $ 54,390 , which it claims was the price for its customized gameboard . ( We were n’t capable to locate the courtroom file away ourselves , but we ’ve pass on out to J.Lo ’s squad . )
What ’s specially amazing about this is that it does n’t seem that Sidekick was give J.Lo anything more than hoverboards . For someone of Lopez ’s height , $ 50,000 of in - form product for a series of tweetsseems lowcompared to the defrayal other famous person make shilling their Instagram accounts to the highest bidder . Lopez has more than 100 million followers across Instagram and Twitter . Jenny , you’re able to do better !
Lopezdid tweetabout the hoverboards once , and let in a TV of her social dancer ride around looking like imbecile as she croon the early aughts bebop “ Love Do n’t Cost a Thing . ” It appears this plug was n’t enough to fulfill the declaration in Sidekick ’s eyes .

TMZ also reports that the groupthreatened to sueRichard Sherman last year after he backed out of a promotional deal .
Something tells me that next time J.Lo wants something for her multi - million clam Las Vegas output , she ’ll just expend the $ 50,000 and leave this influencer mess behind .
